I'm just saying that Jeremy is the superior singer and his vocal have the sound and feel of Journey to me. Arnel sounds like a good cover singing "at" Journey.
And yes, Arnel never should have been allowed to sing the night before this. That's a joke. I don't know whether Neil's 15 facelifts have made his brain to tight or what, but I can't believe he allowed that with "his" band.We know who's band it really was init's prime and we sure as hell would've never heard that vocal performance on world-wide television.
They didn't NEED him for that appeal. They had JSS who is BIGGER in foreign countries. And I was at 2 concerts FULL of American people going NUTS with an Arnel lead Journey. I have never seen a crowd like the one in Cleveland.
Bigger as a solo artist, but not as Journey's lead singer. They did NEED him for that appeal. And you never saw the band on the Frontiers or ROR tour did you? If you had, you wouldn't think any show they did last year was in the same league as those tours. In 1982, Journey was the biggest band in the world, bar none.
And Jeremy still sings Arnel under the table.

The 15 minutes of this chapter seem to be at 14:57... I'm not saying they're done for good, but they will feel these repercussions for a while.
Definitely doesn't help things. If you're gonna sound like that, better to have it as an off-night at a shed in front of 20k than in front of the entire globe, many viewers only having heard the album version.
Next time, bring Ashlee Simpson out to hee-haw dance if that's gonna happen, at least entertain us.

Well, DUH! I mean really, what band fills stadiums now like they did back then??? I meant as far as the typical classic rock venues they are ALL forced to play now. I am not looking at the SP days. And OBVOUSLY when you have your original singer it is different for any band.

That's not my point, I don't doubt they won't have another packed summer tour, I just think the newness has worn off. Comparatively if they had brought their A-game to the table yesterday, they would have benefited from that later on. So in that, they will lose a little.

Tom Snyder show, 1982 (I believe). Forgot the entire 1st verse.
New Year's Eve 1986... blasted and cursing in the 2nd chorus.
(I'm not criticizing, btw... the NYE one is funnier than hell!!)

I disagree a LITTLE bit with this comparison.
Springsteen has always gotten the respect that Journey never has, even with Perry. If Journey just kept on going in 86 until now, I would have to assume that they would have gotten chances like Springsteen did last night.

I'm just saying that to think Arnel's possible foreign attraction wasn't factored into the decision HEAVLIY, is naive.

Let me ask you this Jeremey. I disagree with this. Pineda is an adult. Fuck, he is 40 something years old. He should know better than this. My point is he should have the brains and respect for his job and his bandmates to be in Tampa a few days early, get acclimated and and perform like a professional. I already spoke unauthorized for JSS, saying he would never pull that shit, and I bet you wouldn't be doing a gig on the eve of the fucking Super Bowl either, especially on the opposite coast, would you. Man, if I truly gave a shit about this band, I would be all over Azoff, Schon and Friga0Cain. You think Bruce and his band were playing the Stone Pony on Super Bowl Eve, and just flew in and popped out their show?
To carry this further, there is definitely a disinterest at the management level here. Azoff has far more lucrative clients, tlike the Eagles and Christina Aguilara, and if you look at the mistakes that this band makes, and are seemingly allowed to make, you have to wonder if Azoff (Conselo and Baruck)is just a manager in name only. If I were still tried and true fan, I would be pissed. Journey has obviously lost respect for themselves, the band name and I have to think, they have lost respect for rock n roll and music in general. They don't take it serious. I hate to keep bringing it up, but compare the two bands yesterday. One was on the big stage and acted very professional and the other played the beer tent and acted half assed. Coincidence?
