You and your plokker friends need to realize one thing.
No matter how much you brag about Pineda and his CindArnella story, You have to understand that if it wasnt for Steve Perry, not only wouldnt Mr Pineda have a job (&US green card) right now,but I highly doubt if the band Zoo would even exist.
So regardless of what pedestal you put Arnel on, look a bit higher up to see Perry & his loons looking down smiling at Arnel & plokkers
You lost me on the Zoo band part, they are not a Steve Perry/Journey tribute band, they are a cover band and still performing to date. So even with or without Steve Perry/Journey, Zoo band would still be there. They covered Led Zep, Aerosmith, U2, etc.. remember?
Arnel did not apply for this job, he was discovered through NGomez' youtube vids. He was discovered because of his talent and they contacted him.
The mere fact that you guys kept comparing Arnel to Steve Perry is a great indication that Arnel is doing a pretty good job. As I recall, Arnel replaced JSS or let's say Steve Augeri. But you guys keep forgetting about those two when talking about Arnel's accomplishments. So what gives?
I am very comfortable with my admiration and love for Arnel. I am enjoying what's in front of me now. I am not competing with the loons but I have every right to mention Arnel's accomplishments if somebody is trying to diminish it.
Looking down on us smiling? Do you think we care? NAH, life is too short, just want to enjoy this ride.
Im not putting Arnel and or his talent down. In the long run his obsessed fans like yourself turn more people against him and that is a fact. He was discovered because of his talent, but he was chosen to sing PERRYS songs. Had he not been for Perry, Journey and management, Arnel would still been singing in karaoke bars....
No one is trying to diminish Arnels accomplishment, but you pinheads try to make it seem like its the other way around and that what Perry accomplished doesnt mean shit, cause Arnel is so much better,,,,
The fact that you admit that you (and your clan) dont care, is what will always make you guys look even more weird than the loons ....
You wanna enjoy the ride, by all means do so, but dont forget who built this ride for you to enjoy ....
Well the fact is, even with the recession, people are attending the concerts, so if there are people being turned off by me, many more are coming aboard. I never said that Perry's accomplishment is not important, those are your words not mine.
Actually, if not for Noel Gomez, Neal would have not seen the video of Arnel. You said, “Had he not been for Perry, Journey and management, Arnel would still been singing in karaoke bars”. This is business first and foremost. Actually Arnel was an apprentice for the first year. Yes, there should be thanks and gratitude but if Arnel did bad, do you think they will extend his contract? Isn’t it is more like a give and take. The band pays you but at the same time you are expected to perform and produce results, which he did.
On your previous statement, you made it sound like Arnel owes everything to SP, I beg to differ, the reason why Journey is getting attention is due to the fact that Arnel has the story, charisma, talent and working really hard. People are checking him out and liking what they hear and see. And of course with the band like Journey, how can you go wrong.
Sounding like Steve Perry is not that the ultimate test. Case in point, SA sounded more like SP; he fronted the band for 8 years but nothing really big happened to the band.
I took it somewhat of an insult when you said that the loons will be looking down and smiling, that's why I said, we do not care. You can't insult us and expect me not to respond.
Btw, Arnel is not karaoke bar singer, karaoke is music entertainment system providing prerecorded accompaniments to popular songs that a performer sings live, usually by following the words on a video screen. He's a band singer, who used to perform at Hard Rock Café and Bagaberde.
Arnel fronting Journey is more of a destiny where everything seems to fit at the right time.
Yeah, pretty much sums things up with Chubby
poor girl, can't hate her though, however! she is somewhat misguided when it comes to Journey, it's actually rather frustrating reading through her last response, I can totally understand why you didn't even bother.
