Not only did they not have the decency to tell Jeff to his face but if you log onto the "OFFICIAL" site they have all the "back talk forums" shut down! This may and I think it is the end of the line for me with this band. I'm tired of being treated so poorly by the guys as a fan. Not having anything done to make the fans feel as if they count! The only thing that could save this for me is if the guys ar planning a big REUNION TOUR FOR 2008 with Perry and maybe Rolie and Smitty involed or I may not do any concerts nest year. PERIOD!!!!!! But with their forums down talk about running and hiding!!!!!!!! Pure cowards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As long as it's not told on their official site who and what they are, they feel they can continue to sleep behind the mask.

U should have been here yesterday as they gradually, bit by bit, erased Jeff from the site. First his bio. Then he got cropped from the pic on the band page. Then any mention of him or 2006 was cropped from the blurb on that page. Then his pic was taken from the thing across the top. It was done soooo professionally (NOT).

NO reunion w/Perry. He has too much class to re-associate w/these guys.

In light of what's happened, we can pretty much throw the idea for a "curse free" forum out the window. LOL

Yeah, no kidding. But, in all that deleting, they managed to leave UP the announcement from last December where they "welcomed Jeff to the family" and talked about how great he was. Fuckers.

His pic still shows up at the top of the main page in my Opera browser. He is gone when I use IE, so Opera must still have his pic cached.

Yeah it's not really like me either My hubby thinks it's hot for some odd reason, lol!

I'm with you WickedGail. After 26 years of being a fan and supporter of this band, I'm through, done, finished. Both Steve Augeri and Jeff Scott Soto have a fan for life with me but Journey is now dead. I hope Deen gets out before they screw him over too.

Does anyone know this for sure? Did they they give Jeff the news via email, the same way Phil Collins dumps unwanted wives, or is this just speculation?

;^)

I believe jeff is out of the country with his band Talisman in South america so he either got a call or emailed about hte dismissal ( ie YOUR FIRED) notice

Jeff is scheduled to appear as a guest with the SAS Band at the Queen Fan Club Silver Jubilee here in the UK on 30th June. At the moment he's probably at home in California.

Just felt like bumping this thread because the title is so appropriate!

I spoke to management about this last night and passed on my and also the fan reactions to this move. I believe they listened and this will be corrected. JSS may now be gone, but his year with the band should NEVER EVER be erased under ANY circumstances.

Get 'em Andrew!!!

just me being scarastic, but I am truly wondering if Jonathan is going to tell us all in 5 years it was him who had to make the call to Jeff, just like he did to Steve Perry and Herbie. I swear, if I was in Journey, and Jonathan called me, I would slam down the phone, talking about barer of bad news!

Andrew, that is awesome! I imagine you handled it with more aplomb than any of us could've mustered up. I hope they do correct it, because JSS deserves MUCH credit for his work in the band. He completely re-energized me as a fan.

No, Jeff didn't get any call, e-mail, nothing, NADA from management on his firing.
