Why can't you Loons accept his retirement?

Michael Jordan did it. He is the greeatest player ever.
Wayne Gretzky Did it. He too is the greatest player ever.

Steve Perry is done. He is the greatest singer ever.

Why the Hell can't you accept that?

If anything, you are holding Journey back. Let them go forward.

How are we holding Journey back? Hell, I've been to 3 concerts in the past 6 months, and am getting ready to go to the 4th. I've been very supportive of everything they've done and are planning to do (except re-recording the GH).

Steve Perry was such a huge part of Journey, and music in general. Why is it so wrong for us to reflect on that and hope that he will sing again someday

Who wouldn't want to see MJ or Gretsky back out there again, just one more time...?

Really, holding Journey back? that's really reaching deep, I love JSS but our generation knows Journey with Perry and that will never change. As far as him returning on stage-we can and will believe whatever we want. Perry is and always will be Journey.

[Rockindeano]

Who wouldn't want to see MJ or Gretsky back out there again, just one more time...?

I wouldn't.

I wouldn't because they would tarnish their own reputations. Hell, MJ did somewhat tarnish his, when he tried to come back in Wizard gear. THAT was embarrassing. GretZky, left a superstar.

Perry could come back and burp the dirty dozen out better than that piece of crap they had last year. However, if Perry were to come back, he would tarnish his reputation. That is why he won't come back, and I for one salute him for that. He respects himself and his legacy. That can't be touched.

I agree with what you say. But...I'd still give anything for that ONE CHANCE to see him on a stage, singing whatever he wanted to sing.

Absolutely Donna Please, we don't need to hear him sing Journey songs, we just want him to sing.

I LOVED watching the video of Perry, his singing and performances ALWAYS give me ALOT of joy!!!

Sorry the other guy in the other video just does nothing for me.

I'm no longer into legacys. What he did, at that time, can NEVER be touched. It's been long enough that we'd EXPECT less than what he "had." I'd bypass any legacy talk to see the greatest chemistry between the 5 tightest artists ever to grace the stage. Together, those five gentleman created a stage presence and live act that NO ONE can touch. I'd pay $1,000 to see those five motherfuckers play pick-up sticks with their but cheeks. Just get on a fuckin' stage together.

To each his own, but you're missing out on a great performer by not giving him a chance. I'm as pro-perry as they come, but Jeff's awesome! His ability to perform the music combined with his respect for the legacy that we've been talking about. JSS is the new sound of Journey. I can't wait to see what they've got in store for us in a few weeks. It's gonna be awesome!

Look I think it is fine that you like him, but I don't , I have right to express how I feel, as others have expressed their own feelings, regarding who they like and don't like. And even though I was never a fan of Augeri's either, I can still say his name on the board, but when it comes to the current singer, I have NO respect for him!

You see, what happens in a case like this, is that when you make comments like the one you just made, regardless of your 'right to express how you feel', someone (or many someones) is gonna come along and defend Jeff, because he deserves defending. He's a good guy. Then you get attacked, which you may or may not deserve.

So...the attention is taken away from the person you WANT to talk about (SP) and placed on someone you don't (JSS). It's kinda like what you're momma probably told ya growing up...if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all.

By all means, you certainly have the right to express your feelings on who you like as do I. Just expressing my feelings on your post coming across disrespectful, but I guess the last sentence in your post answers my question.

This is the 'baiting' that we refer to. This comment was made to elicit a response. A negative response. If this were made on a board where the majority of the people felt as you do, it wouldn't get the same response that you'll get here. So do you want the negative attention? Seriously? I mean, c'mon... Jeff comes here and posts. How fucking rare is that??? This is the bullshit that drives them out. And for the bulk of the fans that Do give a shit.. that just sucks.

Sorry... not cool.

Again I expressed my own opinion on how I felt, WITHOUT any personal attacks. You just didn't like what I said because my opinion is DIFFERENT than yours, that's all! So that last comment in your post would apply to the others here, who get so easily defensive and resort to name calling for anyone having a different opinion than them.

How the hell did this thread become Perry vs. JSS? The exact opposite of my original post!

You will get blasted when you say something negative about JSS and you know that. So, either you are a masochist, or you just like stirring shit. I vote for the latter.

I disagree.

Everyone here knows I love Jeff, but I will be the first to tell him I fuckin hate Redlist. I think it's shit. But that's MY opinion. I respect the Hell out of that guy and he knows it. I respect the hell out of Perry and he probably knows that too.

I DO hate PROPERRY with a passion and everyone knows it.

Same old shit.. and, since I like Sheryl Crow I can't wipe it clean. One square just isn't enough! Perhaps this is a three square situation?

It was my opinion of your post, take it or leave it. One question though? And I have never understood this on any of the boards. If you have absolutely no respect whatsoever for this singer of Journey, knowing full well he posts here and communicates with the fans, why praytell do you post, especially stuff like that. If I like the singer I post on that board, if I don't like the singer or he does nothing for me, why would I waste my time?
