Like it or not, Journey is going forward with Arnel. Most of the posts I see on other forums and twitter are positive towards Arnel and the job he is doing.
I have nothing against Arnel, and I actually like his personal story of his shocking rise from his small band to being the frontman to Journey. How could
anyone not like that story? Nevertheless, I believe that Journey's decision to go on without Steve Perry when they did, changed Journey for what it was or will ever be again
to the detriment of JOURNEY. I do not fault the band for trying to pick up the pieces and move on. All good things come to an end. Journey ended when Steve Perry left.
The band is Journey in name only. I wish them the best, but I'll never buy a ticket to see them, as the "current" Journey doesn't interest me mostly because their singer doesn't
move me emotionally. I feel nothing when he sings. It was the voice of Perry that will live forever as JOURNEY. Anything else is something a whole lot less for me.

There is nothing wrong with how you feel. The best course is just to ignore Chubby's threads like she said. Let those who want to partake in those threads have their fun. We have plenty of other topics to follow up on and we can all create our own threads concerning our own interests if we wish. No one has to like Perry or Arnel or Augeri. there are plenty of threads beyond the review threads to express those differing opinions. Obviously we are partial here to Perry based threads (and more and more Foreigner threads it looks like).
It's when people go into another person's thread and try to force what they like on others because their particular thread or subject of interest is being ignored, that's when there is going to be a problem. That's when the thread ninjas (me) are going to come in and take over.


I agree. Respectful dissent on the subject, as opposed to personal attacks on the person.


Thanks guys. :D





I agree with Gunbot as well.....for me I will try to stay away from the AP lovefest threads.....it's when it creeps into the threads that are not about AP that I look for the "Thread Ninjas" to put the world right again.


I told Chubby.....I get that she is a current Journey fan....and maybe if I did not have such a love for the Perry lead Journey then I would like the current line up more.


For me I just don't understand people who say they are Journey fans....but don't like or listen to Perry....that I don't get and NEVER will.

There is room at the MR table for us all....that's what makes this place fun and interesting if we all agreed it would be boring.

So post on and so will I


I just bought the only Journey album in Walmart the other day for $5.49 LOL

It was to replace my old worn out cassette of it. I once liked Journey without Perry, then I liked Journey with Perry, then today I like Journey without Perry. :lol:


You can buy a nine year old album like Arrival at Wal-Mart for five dollars but you can't order Revelation from them. That's the difference between having a record company behind you and going independent.

Like Jeremey said, Journey is probably thinking if they should sign up with a big distributor who can't even begin to match the royalty rate they got with Revelation or do they just sell the next album to the promoter to give away their at their concerts like they did with Generations.

Yes, I'm a woman. I did not announce it before because I don't think it should matter, plus you know it's nice to keep some guessing. :lol:

Jason, you have never offended me in anyway. I'm a tough cookie (most of the time), I just feel the need to let everyone know what my intentions are, so they know exactly what to expect.

Even if I am very pro current line up, I never personally ridicule any of the previous frontmen (which is the favorite fast time here by some). I thought that since a lot of people here take no offense at the personal insults labeled against Arnel, that these positive reviews are just peanuts.

I chose to fight for this current line-up because they deserve it.

Steve, your thread says it all.

I'm going to work now. Have a nice day everyone.


You will get no such support from me :) and that's not because your a woman, it really doesn't matter. It's simply because your "pro the current lineup", and to me that spells "trouble maker", "uneducated", and "misinformed", and 99% of the time those apparant fans have no idea what they are talking about, because the simply fact "Steve Perry & Journey go hand in hand", both are lost without each other.

But feel to post :) however! when it comes to Journey I really don't take offense to anything you write, because it's probably not very significant anyway!.

PS.
And I have nothing personal against you, sorry please don't think that I hate you, because I don't... it's just when it comes to the music of Journey (eh, well...)


Ditto from me.
It doesn't matter what you say, because I'm ALWAYS right!!!! LOL!!

1. I like you.

3. It's a forum, and you can post anything you like (as long as Andrew doesn't think it's out of line). I like your posts. I just get irritated by a group of supporters that want to get the message out that they think Arnel is better than Perry. I'm not saying that YOU said this, and I know you just posted a positive review.

That's the only thing here that's bothering me. Not you at all. I just wish people out there would respect "The Voice". We wouldn't have Journey without his contributions, and unless some miracle happens, we'll never hear THAT version of Journey again.

Arnel is great (although like I said... his dictation has got to me recently), and I think he's good for Journey. But he is not, nor will he ever be Steve Perry (to me).


Hope I didn't offend you, because like I said... I like you. It is funny after all this time, to find out you're a woman though! :shock: :wink: :lol:


Jim even if I wanted to intentionally offend anybody here, you will probably not even in the list coz I think you’re pretty cool.

I show my respect for the voice by staying away from the legacy debate because for me that’s pretty much untouchable.

Now about the gender thing, :lol: you should always leave doubt about somebody’s gender here at MR, not because I said so.... :lol: :wink:


cause you're a guy now...right?!?!? :wink:


Let me check. :lol: :lol:

No one has to like Perry or Arnel or Augeri. there are plenty of threads beyond the review threads to express those differing opinions. Obviously we are partial here to Perry based threads (and more and more Foreigner threads it looks like).
It's when people go into another person's thread and try to force what they like on others because their particular thread or subject of interest is being ignored, that's when there is going to be a problem. That's when the thread ninjas (me) are going to come in and take over.


I agree. Respectful dissent on the subject, as opposed to personal attacks on the person.


Thanks guys. :D





I agree with Gunbot as well.....for me I will try to stay away from the AP lovefest threads.....it's when it creeps into the threads that are not about AP that I look for the "Thread Ninjas" to put the world right again.


I told Chubby.....I get that she is a current Journey fan....and maybe if I did not have such a love for the Perry lead Journey then I would like the current line up more.


For me I just don't understand people who say they are Journey fans....but don't like or listen to Perry....that I don't get and NEVER will.

There is room at the MR table for us all....that's what makes this place fun and interesting if we all agreed it would be boring.

So post on and so will I


I just bought the only Journey album in Walmart the other day for $5.49 LOL

It was to replace my old worn out cassette of it. I once liked Journey without Perry, then I liked Journey with Perry, then today I like Journey without Perry. :lol:


You can buy a nine year old album like Arrival at Wal-Mart for five dollars but you can't order Revelation from them. That's the difference between having a record company behind you and going independent.

Like Jeremey said, Journey is probably thinking if they should sign up with a big distributor who can't even begin to match the royalty rate they got with Revelation or do they just sell the next album to the promoter to give away their at their concerts like they did with Generations.
You re doing that celtic thing again come on GB,be a fuckin man

The word uneducated is a pretty harsh word to label to anybody, I can give you misinformed, but uneducated? Come on.

Give me a hard proof of that 99% that you are talking about. I will be waiting. :wink:


Ok, I was a little harsh, that I will say "sorry" that was harsh yes, I didn't mean you are uneducated person.

And I really don't feel the need to dig up facts tonight, maybe another night or another thread. Take care now :)

Vlad, you're actually a pretty cool person from what I've seen. You do tend to go off at times, but then you always show your human side. I like that in a humanoid! :D

That is just so gay, dude.

Oh, sorry, Gunbot. It seems I mistakenly posted the wrong bear picture. I meant to post this masculine picture instead:

Plus, I didn't mean to say "Thanks," to Babyblue --- b/c that would be too gay.

What I meant to say was "Uh....yeah.... whatever, chick".

I want to warn you that you will never see any review about the band that will not have any comparison between Arnel and Perry, or vice-versa. I cannot control what people will say in their reviews and I hope you will understand that.



first off there is no comparison. anyone making the mistake of comparing another vocalist singing journey tunes to perry is setting said vocalist up for failure.

it's great that you are an avid fan of arnel. just remember his place in the band and it's history. the previous 30 years have a lot to teach new fans. without the soaring vocals of perry combined with neal's guitar, rolie's keys, steve smith's amazing drum parts, etc... arnel would not have a gig with journey as they would not have built the legacy that they continue to ride on.


Lula would never make that mistake. :lol: :twisted: :wink:


oh crap!! but i did make that mistake :oops: :lol:
