They were afraid of the backlash for how they treated Jeff.

So funny you say that - as recently as 60 seconds ago I referred to it on another site as a shitty website.

Funny how the whole site has been down since June but THEY SOMEHOW MANAGED to keep the "store" open.
"We're not gonna tell you ANYTHING that's going on with the band, but please keep buying our crap!"

I keep getting myspace bulletins about sales on Journey merchandise, but they won't tell me who their singer is or what they're doing? Wow... EXCELLENT marketing, guys, but sorry, I don't happen to need any $1 Journey Beach Balls at the moment. :roll: Come on guys, quit hawking bullshit that no one cares about and maybe toss what's left of your fans an update or a press release... or here's an idea - maybe take 10 minutes out of your big marketing blitz and give Jeff the phone call he should have gotten before June 12th. (and ya wonder why people are putting your faces on douche boxes? good god.)

:evil: :evil:

From hat I have been told it will probably be at least till afer the show in CHile it will be back up and their is serous discussion if BT will ever be back which I highly doubt as for the fear of the band to getting trashed on it

To know me is to know if I give you M.F. as a middle name, it means I respect the HELL outta ya.
It's absolutely a compliment of the highest order. 8) 8)

If they have any brains at all, they will hold on to that thought.

They've taken a page from the VH notebook...which is to leave the fans in the dark...hoping that their very presence whenever they get off their asses to show concern for their fans, will be enough for fans to welcome them back with open arms.

It didn't work for VH.


All thats been said in this thread is very true. Cat can back me up here...so can Sky. The band has been desperate to whack back talk for YEARS. They don't like the voice of dissent on their own site. Hell, they fucking fire people that work internally for even looking at them crosseyed. The fact that the two biggests douchebags in melodic rock cant control what's on their website had them losing sleep at night.

Back Talk will never be back...I'd run naked in the freeway of your choice if it does (sorry andrew, it's too good a line not to use again!)...

OK, so now we have Drew and Frank running naked through the streets. Who's next? Skylord, are you up for this?( :oops: Maybe that was not quite the thing to ask about a naked running man. :oops: )

Mikey'd be glad to...he's sporting a hot new bod that's 25-30 pounds lighter! ;)

In the Perry/rumor thread I volunteered to follow Andrew naked down the freeway if Perry came back.
I'd do it for Back Talk to because as I previously stated, PERRY will return before BT does.

I guess "stop doing things to cause such MASS dissention" is too obvious an answer. :roll:
And just when a lot of dissenters (is that a word?) were returning to the flock VIA JSS, too. Christ! It's mind-boggling!
