An opinion about Steve Perry by someone who doesnt know shit

Postby Liquid_Drummer » Tue Jul 17, 2007 8:20 am

He gets a bad rap it seems. Primadonna, diva, asshole etc. I really think there is another side to it and I will explain what I think about it.

In the music buisness if you dont shove you get shoved. Someone like Perry who's talent was so fucking good it gave him power to say, its my way or the highway bitches. In the music buisness I think you have to be able to do that. Very few people get that far in anything with out pissing of someone. Look where he is now ! Lives how he wants, does what he wants and I would even venture to say that I bet he answers to no one. A lot of us know that Journey are his bitches for the most part and might even be paying him as if he were there.

Primadonna, diva, asshole ??? Or just a smart mother fucker...

About cain,

After just watching the Escape dvd again and seeing the part where he runs out from behind the keyboards clapping his hands..... He wins the "most white cracker mother fucker ever" award. That is what the rant was all about. I think about seeing that vs hearing what Rollie did. Rollie fucking ruled !

It's not easy being the "5th Wheel" ~ when you're the Lead Singer.....

I know I'm not on his level of "celebrity / popularity", but yeah ~ I've been the "New Lead Singer" to a few bands...

:lol: Fair enough LD.

Cain's nerdishness can't be denied...but nor can Rolie's supreme ugliness. Honestly...I can't even watch most of those clips from the late 70s....

Rolie, with that terrible mustache, used to look like some washed-up porno star in need of a face lift.

Yea, but judging from the pics posted (and the resultant huffing and puffing) of the Infinity sleeve Rolie could urinate off the GG Bridge and AND tell us both how cold :o and deep :shock: the water is there.

And that's all our present female company cares about. :D

Cornered her.
JSS got blowtorched by the perry jihadists for defending himself against slurs.

The only flaw in ur otherwise hysterical statement is that in every photo, Neal also has that "bulge" in his pants. But, I think he's completely & utterly gross & I always have thought so. So it's not just about the package.

The going commando thing seems to have always been hip in music ever since "the members :) " of Led Zeppelin started doing it?

Not a fan of the look myself but whatsoever blows their skirts up I guess.
