Andrew. I get the sense we perhaps should be sitting down when some of this comes out. Kudos to you for being able to gain the bands respect enough to spill the beans on this and trust you with this information.

I don't think it will be that shocking to those that frequent this board, but merely a lot of info to read thru and enjoy.

Thank you, thank you, thank you we are waiting very very PATIENTLY... Granny

When you get a chance, I would truly like to know what it is like to spend that much time with these guys. I have had the chance to meet Ross one time, and that was truly a treat. Jon was in a pissy mood that night, but Ross invited me for a walk and a smoke. Would love to spend a day with those rascals.

Just those who refuse to accept the inevitable.

Journey, and many other bands, have been using filler harmony tapes since the early 80's dude. Where the hell have you been?

Better question is; what moss-covered rock have u been living under, throwback?
The issue wasn't harmony vocals.

And Perry's hip prob was not "trumped up"- it was a very real problem that prevented him from being able to tour for some time SO get a clue before you spout off.

Better tell that to Neal & Herbie - cuz they ain't buying it.

As to the power of the internet, trust me the band pays little attention to it and NO attention to bullshit comments like the one you just made...

One fervent fan with a blog reduced this band to it's knees.
I know that to be 100% fact.
Now that we've deduced your credentials to be absolute shit, kindly go run into traffic.

Actually, they pay a great deal of attention to what is said out there. A GREAT deal of attention.

BALONEY! If they did then they would've done a Latin rhythm album by now! Or maybe I'm living in a dream land and perhaps the idea truly is STUPID...?

Could you please ask them about this in your next interview or should I simply assume the stupidity of it all?

Why would that be considered stupidity? Even members of Journey have internet access.

With the exception of BackTalk, that is.
The sugary ramblings of those sphinctal connoisseurs is enough to send anyone into a hyperglycemic coma.



Long live MR.com!

Andrew said the rumor is not Journey related.

And Journey's future is not smooth yet. But I believe it will be soon.

It's not?

I will bet you all anything the "answers" come at the end of the month.


It's funny watching this this thread and seeing you idiots guess to what is happening.

Well thanks for including me in your list of idiots!
I think I have a pretty damn good idea what is going on...all I am saying is that I do not think it is 100% worked out yet...

Do you think the "answers" will come from Journey at the end of the month, or do you think the "answers" are in Andrew's interviews due @ Nov. 6th?

Don't know. We'll see.
Some conversations have suggested that JC wasn't totally sold on JSS at one time or another. And, if JC -after 25 yrs of Journey- thinks he needs some extended family time and personal project work, then it stands to reason he might choose to bow-out for awhile. Then NS would be free to take Journey to whatever level he chooses with little or no opposition. No idea though who would back-fill JC...maybe no one...maybe someone from the past...
Just food for thought.

FW, Andrew is just kidding you. The big news is that Journey IS doing a Latin album!!!!

Right after the 2nd coming of Christ and a new Steve Perry world tour.

Here are some more answers to go along with what Andrew has already said. In today's Pantagraph newspaper, there is an article previewing Saturday's show. In a paragraph about Journey's lead-singer issues, here's what it says:

"Soto, best known as the vocalist on Yngwie Malmsteen's for two albums, will remain on board through the tour's October finale and beyond, according to Journey's management."

So it looks like the article was a bit off on the last date of the tour, but there's some info from Journey's management that I don't think I've seen anywhere else. It at least confirms that he'll be singing in Europe with them, but I think it's pretty much what we've expected all along.

It appears that piece of info. is starting to leak like a bottomless glass!!!

Here's to hopin JC will be around a while. Thanks again Andrew!!! What a job yours must be!!!!

[Clasicrockldy]

Again, it's just a guess on my part but, I have a suspicion that Andrew would've stayed up for 4 days straight to transcribe and post all his info if he were allowed to post it anytime he wanted; these seem to be 'Mother-of-All Journey Interviews. Again, I am only guessing but, I think Drew promised to keep hush until the band gives him the green-light.

No, I spoke with mgmt, I'm good to go - I really just have to get the work done. I was in the US, then home (where it was my son's birthday and then a weekend) and then I left for the Uk, where I type now. So I haven't been doing my usual day job since Oct 10....

Oh boy, Andrew spoke to management ! That means MR will have the goods first, as usual ! You are awesome, Andrew !

[Ms_M]

Andrew - awesome work - you are appreciated. I am waiting.... semi-patiently....
