MR

man flying hungover is a bitch but I would do it all again tomorrow...my rambling thoughts and I WILL forget shit and names so I am truly sorry....midweek Journey idiots flock to Vegas...we all rock...every fucking one of us....hanging with Lori...Deb and that cool tall chic........FU....Crazy Deb ( I don't do the Mimi thing)...shit if I knew you were in town I would've gone to Manilow with you...my bad....FU showing up just days after playing lead with Styx...pro concert goers.....oh and...somehow they got me down to the 3rd row....maybe 4th...forever grateful....it was awesome...Rip...the consumate host...haven't seen the guy in awhile but a total class act....the Dokken thing? He lives with it...takes his meds...and lives a fairly productive life....The AP folks...I am so out of the loop but it was SO great to see a slew of them and to meet fabbest? I told you I suck at names...St. Dan...she wanted to know where "the other big guy" was...you fucked up dude ....the fact that they recognize me is pretty amazing...and humbling...love em all....Dealing with Dave Perry without WIX was like well...dealing with Dave Perry without WIX.....now that I am home I still don't believe he didn't show...though he called and we got to talk to him...dude is a full blown 3 hour Dr. Phil show but these Journey road trips miss a LOT when he and G are absent...Frank....you the man....great to see you....Barb too....always is....Cheryl...Leslie (my new Fat Tuesdays drinking bud)...Jenn...Angie......shit....these things are so much bigger than the show...the show is the magnet that brings us dimwits together...you guys can do all the reviewing and break shit down...I was.....hoarse...hungover...a little more deaf...and happy as a pig in shit as I endured 12 hours of flying back today....so in my world.....total success....

Last thought...the sequin gals were gettin' it DONE last night!

Oh and...you guys know that Chica really and I mean REALLY likes Neal Schon?

MT...you flying home already? Skipping Reno?!

MT! Thanks bro, and really good to see you again! Made me feel so much better to know I wasn't the only guy here with no clue how to gamble, lol! Hope to see you again on tour!

Fine color commentary on the season kickoff, Dad ... pop some Advil, drink lots of water, and have a rocking good time w Sir Elton tonite...

MT, so good seeing you again buddy! I have a pic of Ross shaking your hand after the show. At least I think it was you!

Glad you guys all had such a blast! Still bummed at missing it, but I'll live. I'm sure I'll get to see a number of these fine people at JTTC this year though, hopefully, and maybe with Journey on tour, we'll have another opportunity to get something off the ground.

I never really felt part of the group..................

I told you I didn't feel i could go, was not feeling good. I asked you to wait. I told you not to go on.

I told you not to take something good and turn it into something else. I told you there was no going back if you went without me............

It might just come to you. I don't think the USA dates are really down yet. Remember how quickly the Hawaii shows sold out?
There is a lot of love for Journey there.

And AP really likes Chica! It's a "Circle of Love", haha! Check Neal out lookin' lonely in the background.

I told Hope Neal was smiling the entire time Arnel was singing to her!

Are you sure it wasn't because he was thinking, "Hey, I'm taller than both of them!"?

PS Man, after seeing the pictures, I'm bummed out I missed this show!

The fact that it was on a Wednesday and I'm in Pittsburgh for training just made it impossible. This summer will be a different story, though!

Ya, we ROCK!!!! What a great time! Tommy, Rip, and all my lovely wonderful lady friends... wow, what a GREAT time!!!! Tell you what, I LOVE the Steve's with all my heart... take nothing away from them... Arnel can SING!!! Those Journey boys put on a hell of a show!!! LOVED the new tunes, you should have seen me yelling at Rip, "it's a new one, record it!!! LOL"

Dang it, you girls get all the great shots! And yes, so glad you were there to answer my recurring question... "Is this a new song?"

Excellent hair, T.
