Frontiers

[Liam]

The end of the world will come before the Raiders win another Super Bowl.

Let's HOPE so anyway.

Ahhh...football talk. Never thought I'd welcome it so much.

HAHA...glad we could help.

[Moon Beam]

Maybe Journey realizes it's just a stupid band? Geez you people acting like the world is ending are ridiculous. Get on with your life. Believe me it's just a stupid band, a once great stupid band. Any stress or whatever people are feeling is not caused by the band, it's caused by their own idiocy!

Yet you RaiderFan just had to come and post your own idiotic thoughts.
If it means nothing to you and you could care less then why did you post?

Just hoping for at least another half assed new cd. With a few decent tunes. By all means Moonbeam, keep mourning your world being thrown for a loop. Congratulations on the coherent thought and proper sentence structure of your post!

Glad you've been keeping tabs on me. "We all know..." Way to speak for everybody. Does that make everybody illiterate?

You have no clue how much I enjoy this, thanks for bringing laughter to my day!

Sad it is that you have never learned how to partake in that 3 letter word.

Ur more literate than Moonie? Her sentence structure seems as good as urs. & she's typing & tending to kids. Are u?

Not to mention she's one of the nicest people on this board. Knock it off.

[NoMoreTails]

Have you conveniently forgotten that these same people fought you tooth and nail over recording and video rights? They blocked everything you tried to do.

Also, if I remember correctly, didn't Jeremey say his wife offered a cd of him doing their songs to the guys once, only to have Jonathan look like it was covered in shit or something? Like he was insulted that anyone would do a tribute to them. It seems that these guys would sell their mother for a buck, but I don't see how they think they'd make any more money than they might have with JSS. With friends like these guys...well Neal anyway, not sure how Cain ever felt about JSS.

Well I get up with a 5 month old at night and have him til my wife gets home and I head off to work. Is that good by you? I mean u? Maybe I'll adopt a new tone instead of the ol it's just a stupid band theme. How bout everyone throw themselves out a window, there's no reason to go on.

Maybe you're confusing this with when Jonathan offered a tape of his wife to Herbie!

Ya but you didn't have one living in you for nine months did ya?

You may have a penis Sir but I can go with you in a pissing match anyday!

You may be right...

If ur so bothered that we're so upset over that, may I suggest u do just that?

Go outside. Smell the fresh air. We're allowed to be upset about our fave band. Who cares what u think anyway?

If you don't like the band why are you here? What are you hoping for with the next cd? I can't wait to see them when they go back on tour, how about you?

Hmmmmmmmmm, I hope this is sarcasm cuz if it ain't I'm gonna own your backside with this next one..........

Believe me it's just a stupid band, a once great stupid band. Any stress or whatever people are feeling is not caused by the band, it's caused by their own idiocy!

You saying you still have interest in them and you wanna spend
your cash on em?

Sure. I used to be a huge Speedwagon fan 'til they kicked Richrath out. I still bought their new cd. CD's okay, nothing close to when Richrath was in the band. I've seen them 3 or 4 times since then too. I don't want the rest of the band burned at the stake for getting rid of my favorite member. I think it's a pretty healthy view to have of a band. It's entertainment!

[frfksakes]

As for Journey hiring a singer from a tribute band, yeah I think it is a mistake and I'll tell you why. With Augeri there was always a comparison to Perry. With Jeff at the helm, for me there was a promise that the band would once again be relevant as new material would be recorded and Jeff would continue to move the band forward. Jeff can sing the catalogue, doing it justice without being called a Perry clone. A singer from a tribute band simply puts the band back in the shadow of their glory days, their days with Perry. It shows they are cowards and have no faith in their talent. They want the safety net of Perry's sound.

What she said, lol
That was it for me, too, Lula. Esp. the relevant part.

[Moon Beam]

RaiderFan:
I still love the Little River Band and Chicago I'm glad that we've been
able to communicate without either of us having our faces completely covered in mud.
Thank you muchly for the shakes and debate of sorts Sir.
Hope you enjoy the remainder of your day as I know I will.

On my way to cool off in my Son's kiddie pool, see you Lot soonly.
Remember, no mud slings without me!

"Lady" by LRB was my first favorits song that I can remember. I must have only been 5 or 6 at the time.
Have fun in the pool. Try not to drown!

I'll 4th that.
Haven't they learned yet that Elvis has left the building.

I can't imagine how JSS must feel to see some of you ready to fill his shoes before the dust even settles. And you settle for a Perry clone. I don't know who received the biggest knife in the back from you few, Jeff or Augeri. You must have some doubts about what went down with Augeri, now that you see what they do to their best friends.

I guess I stand accused of this. But I don't look at it as forgetting about him before the dust settles. People like YOU who are a fan of perry only aren't fans of Journey. The singer is part of the band. I loved everything Augeri did in Journey too but got IMMEDIATELY behind JSS. I did the same in 98 when "Elvis'" bluff was called.

I do miss JSS fronting the band and appreciate the live shows he gave us and remain regrettful that he did not get the chance to put his vox to a Journey album.

At End of the day, I guess there's only ONE person who could have me going to a Journey show and standing there in the middle of the crowd with my arms folded and a big scowl on face shaking my head going "WHY DID THEY DO THIS?" through clenched teeth.
2 hints: it wasn't JSS and it's not Jeremy.

[ArnelRox]

I liked the band. Till yesterday that is.

Next CD? Don't hold ur breath buddy.

Lady was one of the best they ever did as well as The Night Owls.

Try not to drown!

Nice touch, guess it just ain't your lucky day!

Jeremy,

Let's talk for real here. Technically, no, you aren't the lead singer, yet. I know you are coming out to California to audition for these creepy fuckers. I can't say I blame you for doing it, but there are many questions unanswered.

I am surprised they are allowing you to talk on here. Probably want you to behave as you would normally. I wonder if the fan reaction here has you thinking twice about this gig? I wouldn't want this job, even if I could sing that well, in a million years.

Have you conveniently forgotten that these same people fought you tooth and nail over recording and video rights? They blocked everything you tried to do. Yet, I guess money will heal all wounds. As for the opportunity, I really don't think of it as anything special. These guys are nothing anymore. The fact that that they took their new chance that was handed to them, and pissed it away yet again, simply suggests that Journey is garbage.

I do hope you have a lawyer with you when you sign your contract.

Dean, I appreciate your perspective and consider you a friend as well. As I've said before, no offers have been made, I've yet to talk to anyone in management. There's no smoking gun there, but I am excited about being able to just sit down at a piano with a few of the most talented songwriters of the past 25 years and make some music. That's an offer that no one in their wildest dreams would have imagined. I am online only to address questions where I can regarding my potential future with the band. As it stands, there is nothing in place. I am at my job right now, and I have health insurance and a baby on the way, and an amazing opportunity to shake hands with a few of my idols. Should this go any further, it's true that I probably won't be around her very much, but for now, there is nothing more than the potential of living out a dream for a few days and that's enough for me - And it would be enough for anyone of you.

Okay, I must've missed some key post in between. Now, Jeremey IS being considered as possible lead singer? I'm sorry, but I honestly hope this doesn't happen to become true...Jeremey, you've always been informative on this board & I have nothing against you & your tribute band...but, this just seems way to farcical for my taste. I can just hear on the radio announcements the jokes about JRNY hiring a tribute singer...the thought of it is ranking right up there with those commercials with William Shatner, Robert Goulet, George Hamilton...makes me cringe...JRNY needs to retire before it gets worse.

What is this shit about Jeremey just being a "tribute" singer..Jesus H Christ..have u heard the guy..he can outsing Perry, JSS or Augeri..with consumate ease!!

Do not underestimate the guys voice..its amazing!

He is frankly..too f**king good for Journey.... they will be cery lucky to secure someone as good as him...so get off your goddam high horse.... christ.... you think Journey can call the shots after this debacle.... ??

Rather than being a "laughing stock" ... it will be just the opposite! Talent is talent..a great singer is a great singer...no matter what his background, colour, race or creed! Anyone who is into music knows this..anyone who could possibly even contemplate "laughing" is an utter prick.... Jeremey.... give it your best shot..ignore the jealous-heads out ther...who will try to bring you down..you have the voice...use it!!
