Best Regards,
Andrew.

Congrats on such a great effort,it was not only an informative read,but also very enjoyable! :)

I also consider Toto's album the best one I have listened to in 2006,so your #1 is mine too. 8) Not quite the same when it comes to Song of the Year,although I love "Dying on my Feet",but I kept turning back to "Let It Go" ( I just love the funky-jazzy side of the band) and "Bottom Of Your Soul" - hauntingly beautiful...

I would have put Paul Stanley's "Second To None" higher than 39,but that's just me... :D
The song grew on me since I heard it.Paul is still so good after all these years.

The Journey story was very sincere and well written...
It wasn't easy for anyone involved...Hoping for more peaceful years to come.


Ok,who the hell was in charge with Rick Springfield's artwork??? :shock: :lol: Sad stuff.

Again,great work,Andrew!

And welcome to Myspace,you'll love it!

Best Modern Rock Album..My Chemical Romance...without a doubt, it's the way forward.

Glad you mentioned Chicago as its an album that takes a few listens, it's a worthy inclusion.

Wombat has a nice comedic touch when writing the text for that award. :) :lol: :D

I can't wait to see the rants on Google and TJF about the Dickhead of the Year...2 years in a row! WOW. Everyone can be a dickhead for a day...but Reardon/JT/Whatever else he calls himself has done it for 2 straight YEARS...that takes a special kind of work.

I like what Andrew says about Journey in the "Still To Come" section about 3/4 of the way down the page. I'll let you read for yourself. Pretty exciting! :D

He started out slow but went out with an absolute BANG!!! :lol:


My favorites are the "I'm sorry for what I did. Can you at least allow me to READ the forums?" :lol:


Maybe the funniest thing of all is he threatens lawsuits twice on Drew for giving him the award LAST year and Drew names him again :lol:
I love the guy(s) and will be congratulating him when I see him (them).

Great job on the MelRock Awards Andrew

The one thing I didn't like wasn't the awards, but the fact Journey is thinking about Re-Recording some of their old hits, WHY!?!? Let the classics stay classics and record some new matierial and with a great new vocalist make those songs classics. Don't toss them aside during new tours, actually play the new songs and maybe people will like them. Don't make the new songs like the songs from Arrival, Red 13, and Generations where there is maybe 1 song from those three that is played live when you guys tour.

See, I LIKE this.

I'd love to hear the band's current take on the classic material.

Never would I ever try to doubt Andrew McNeices news or opinion, but personally, and that's all this is, I don't see it happening now.

How bout the way he begs Drew to at least let him READ the forums, then says he is already in here under another name? :lol:

Oh, yea.
Classic.
Drew found a way to completely shut him down, even from READING the damn things, which is the last lifeline, b/c without that he's got to conjure up fodder (from what I hear from Dean and Wombat, he's become prolific, and getting good at it, too) to bring to his other "allowable" haunts. :D

So his only recourse is the "Fuck you, I'm there anyway with 5 IDs... :evil: " :lol:

He is creating Deano profiles everywhere and saying I am into gay, kinky and animal sex....yet, if you google Journeytroll, he is all over S+M borads and the like.

His descriptions of you in the emails are somewhat humorous, too.

Hope I don't get Drew mad

Postby Rockindeano » Tue Feb 20, 2007 3:45 am

I just can't help it...

Here it is..


Oh brother. I debated whether to even put some of this crap online as it really is crap. Puerile, stupid, unintelligent, worthless drivel. But hey, I didn't write it, it is not my doing and people should be aware of who they are dealing with when tangling with this clown.
I am not even going to give him the satisfaction of naming him, but if you read through the 2005 Awards, you should recognize his handiwork. What a waste of oxygen, seriously.

There is plenty more e-mails, but why waste your time with his issues? Here are just a few for a laugh - posted in order of their arrival in my in box over the last 12 months. Congrats to our 2006 Dickhead Of The Year, back for more...

1) As for my past behavior, I am sorry. I think I'll pass on the ass kissing...thanks anyway.

2) Don't get your panties in a bunch Andrew. Lighten up. I have no hatred for you or anyone else.

3) ....Hmmm...kiss Andrew's ass or be banned for good. ...SCREW YOU!!!! You're lucky you're Down Under Harry Potter.

4) Pssst...here's a little secret Andy. I'm already IN your forum. I have been for quite a while now...genius. It's just that...well, I like fucking with you...buffoon. LMFAO!!!!! Good luck trying to figure out who I am...you would be quite suprised if you had an ass chance of figuring it out. Good Luck genius...;)

5) Could I at LEAST have the chance to read the forum boards? Thanks Andrew.

6) I think I'll start a blog of my own McNeice...oh...and DO expect my spam to be coming your way....do I get a trophy for winning your award??? Great choices of awards!!!!! Kudos D-bag!!!

7) Hello Andrew, Hope all is well with you and the family. When you said I won 2005 Dickhead of the Year I thought you were being facetious. When I saw it was an ACTUAL award, my jaw dropped...;). I admit, I had a good chuckle. I'd hate to see what THAT trophy looks like...LOL...;) Keep up the good work at the site!

8) Please remove the Dickhead of the Year section of your front page or I WILL be contacting a lawyer.

9) I ALREADY showed the front page to a lawyer and I DIDN'T make myself out to be a saint by any stretch. He's salivating at the thought of suing you for defamation...for starters.

10) Hope all is well. Went to the show Saturday night and it was great. I was wondering if you could possibly allow me back into the forum...It's been a while and I enjoy the topics and posts. If you say no, could you at least not forbid me from looking at the posts without registering.

11) no luck reading reatding the forum lately...If douche bag, fraud ***** is in your head get the fuck over it weakling. That fat fucking, dribbling, can't drive a train murderous slob drunk came to Boston, I called him out to meet me and he never returned my emails...you have a C*** on your boards Potter. Deal with him or consider yourself a fraud in my home and the homes I forward this email to.
If it's a technical gliich....forget that middle paragraph....it was a typo.

12) There are two conclusions...1. One, I went over the line with my Harry Potter comment. or, 2. You are indeed that fat, drunken, slobbering fool's doormat (you're too lenient of his shit). Let me add too that he is a coward. With all the posts of busting me up, I call him out on it when he comes to Boston and am met with stone silence.
Typical. Fat bastard can't get out of his own drunken way. DO pass this on to him Andy. He has no balls. Tell him I own him...I was ready to kick his fat ass and not even a word from him. What a useless slob.

13) LOL!!! Be still Andy!!! I am VERY MUCH posting in your site. Only you are TOO STUPID to realize it....This is fun for me. Tell that fat, narly slob I said Hi...Oh, wait. I always do. I was this close to reeling in that clown in Mansfield. What a disgrace his is...now shoo Potter and deliver the news to El Guapo while I play nice in you JSS blowfest!!!

14) Hey Harry Potter.....wake up you dumb c***. We are ALL the same person you dumb motherfucker!!! Christ, I laugh my ASSSS of when I pull the John thang over your dumb ass heads! Dumb c***! LMFAO!!! Yeah, he doesn't sound much like me..because I made him that way you silly c***..get a clue Andrew!!! Andrew, gee wiz motherfucker, I don't even know what you're talking about....Shine up that trophy you dick!!!! I relish winning that award you stupid, cockless piece of bile.

15) I guess that makes me the Robert De Niro of outing douches like yourself and big fat slobbering train driving murderer....LOL!!!! Print THAT you C***...
....I'm having a fucking BALL on your site posting up as a "good guy." Dumb motherfucker!!!! I'm reeling that c*** in for a visit....another dumb c***. See you in court when they find his fat body.

16) tell me, why is it that punk Soto doesn't take me on in at alt.music? I know you wouldn't because you don't own the site. Your site is loaded with a bunch of whiny maggots, Andy. I love the fact that Def Leppard hates your fucking guts. Say hi to the two-headed kid!

Oh, that's enough...seriously....that's about half of the e-mails. Enough though, you get the picture! What a dickhead!

I could dissect this all the doo da day, as our beloved and missed TNC would say.

How about the whopper where he tries to take credit for being poor Enigma/John From Boston? :lol:
