any other hugo tunes you pen? I think my favorite hugo disc is Time on earth...that is great. I really dig the Triumph "magic power" redo..

Hugo wrote all of the songs on "Time On Earth" with the exception of "Magic Power". Hugo is one hell of a songwriter!

rake Hugo over the coals all you want about being a singer with a very thin voice and copying Perry's mannerisms on stage to the point of creeping some people out, but I'd rate the self-titled Hugo cd above anything Journey has done since Raised on Radio. The guy is a very good songwriter, and certainly better than any other lead singer Journey has had with the possible exception of Gregg Rolie.

No way Hugo's writing is better than TBF. Make fun of TBF all YOU want, but that record is a brilliant write. As for anything after that, go ahead and claim it as shit, because it all is.

My point is Hugo is a fucking copycat. That shit makes me so enraged it isn't funny. That's it, I am now cracking beers, all of them.

specifically, the comment was the Hugo S/T cd was a better album than TBF. Lyrically, TBF is very good and may well be some of the best lyrics Journey has ever done. I still think the Hugo cd has better songs. TBF had good ballads and a few good mid-tempo songs. Discounting One More, the rocks songs were pretty lacking. The Hugo cd is pretty solid from start to finish.

My point is Hugo is a fucking copycat. That shit makes me so enraged it isn't funny. That's it, I am now cracking beers, all of them.

Maybe he is. His vocal range is close to Perry (though the style is certainly different, and the tone is different and considerably thinner), and his stage presence is certainly "inspired" by Perry. All this has absolutely NO relevance whatsoever to his writing ability whatsoever.

You are fucking retarded! I can understand you not liking how he copies Perry's mannerisms, but have you even HEARD his albums? I somehow think you haven't. If you have, I doubt you'd be making those statements. His original music doesn't "copy" Journey at all. He writes some amazing melodic songs! I didn't care for his last two releases, but LOVE his other stuff.

i listen to hugo's stuff all the time. When im in my work shop I just let his cds play thru. I love all of them...really want to see him live but he stays around NY.....COME SOUTH HUGO!!!!!

TBF was a fuckin turd dude. It's the only Journey record I listened to the first time and was pissed on the first spin. Schon talked crap about a "rockin" cd and it turned out to be an adult contemporary turd my grandma would enjoy listening to. Her and light in the loafers key players (sorry Jim). In all seriousness Dean, you are way off the mark here. Go back and read Mac's view of Hugo's self released cd as what Journey should have released with TBF. Hugo continues to write better material than Journey has since ROR and arguably since Frontiers. You need to back away from the beer bong, have the boy bring you a pair of pepsi's instead of beers, and give Hugo's music a fair listen on it's own merits. Opinions are like assholes and beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but you are WAY under estimating Hugo's talent and capabilty. You can't deny the overdriven rock guitar tone on "Time on Earth". It's not super sofisticated guitar playing but it rocks WAY harder than anything Schon has done in decades.

Same goes for Ramos BTW. Ramos may fall within Schon's shadow, but he's a HELL of a guitarist. I'd put him head to head with Schon anytime. And he's taller than a kitchen sink, unlike Fro.

Ditto Gator, I listen to Hugo's stuff a lot more often than I listen to Journey stuff. Their material from the last two decades don't hold water to Hugo and Valentine's new material. He need to do his own material live, go south and then COME TO THE MID WEST! I burnt all my frequent flyer miles seeing Valentine on Long Island a couple of years back. Wow what a great show we seen at the Crazy Donkey!

I really do like TBF. Also, can you count how many times Schon has said we have a rocker coming, and it doesn't um, rock? He always says that.

As for your Ramos take, I agree 100%. And I also agree and laughed out loud(you asshole) about Schon not being able to see over the kitchen sink to turn the faucet on.

And there is no way I am A) drinking Pepsi and B) backing away from the beer bong, but thanks for your concern.

PS- That's actually my daughter 19 years ago, not my son.

And happy birthday brother.
