Neal Schon vs Hugo & Evolution tribute Band

[Behshad]

God I haven't had this good of a laugh in a few days, keep it up all you guys. This is great on all sides

Cant wait to read your review of the "Phyl vs Reality" DVD when it hits your local Target

How about a reality show with you, Deano, StrangeGrey, and Blueskies? I would watch.

" The Three Douches and Me" ?

Im sure you have used 3 douches at the same time, but still couldnt fight the problem.....

[Blueskies]

A better way to enjoy yourself this month Behshad, would be to take your family down to the Hocking Hills area in southern Ohio and do some hiking and take in the fall color. Your kids would love hiking through Old Mans Cave State Park if you haven't been.....its a beautiful place. They would also love the Pumpkin Festival in Circleville if you haven't been.

My kids enjoy better things that hiking, cause theyre ,um, KIDS You may not remember it when it comes to your kids, but a 3 year old enjoys a weekend at a water park or Kings Island or even a free toy from Happy Meal more than a fucking Pumpkin Festival in CircleFuckingVille, you douche
Fall colors take about 2.5 seconds to take in .

If you've never been then you don't know how much they would like it. Water parks and Kings Island is great but kids like the Pumpkin Festival and hiking the gorge at the state park as well. Hocking Hills is the most beautiful region in Ohio...I loved going there as a kid and so did my sons....its a popular area to visit especially in the fall. I hiked the gorge as well as the rim last year and it was great...got a lot of beautiful pictures that day. My thirteen year old niece hiked it with me and loved it. I'm sure your wife would enjoy it too.

Is that the motto you used when you handed them the beerbong too when they were toddlers ?


That pic you shared above says more than 1000 words about you & your hobbies

Art is not my "hobby", Beh...although I've always done artwork as well as worked for family business's ...art has been my sole profession for the past year and a half. I've also always taken pictures wherever I go in part to reference later to paint....and I take some great pics so I'm looking to do something further with my photography as well.

I'm sitting here laughing and realizing that this behemoth of a thread is all Wombat's fault.

Wombat is a schutt stirrer!

[Behshad]

Phyl,
At this point, I think your best hobby/job should be to ask the wombat to be his editor ;)
(this is just from the last 2 pages in this thread ,,,,)

[Blueskies]

Nawwww...because that indicates exactly why he wouldn't....I can't type worth a darn.

but then again...neither can he! just kidding Andrew

[Behshad]

At least you have class when it comes to your ride

[tammy]

has ANYONE considered this might all be the work of the cafe????

Maybe THEY did the poster on their own? They already have a question mark over their head as far as this so called "Steve Perry" show, whihc was never EVER going to happen...

Just saying...

I'm confused and probably shouldn't even comment cuz I haven't read the facebook message or this entire thread....but, I'd have to agree with Neal being ticked off if this tribute band is being promoted like that. They fooled a lot of people at that "Bamboozled" concert (well, the people who didn't even know what the definition of the word)...and, wasn't there a cafe in Hawaii (this one?) that was also under the impression and sent out press release that Steve Perry was performing there?

[Blueskies]

LOL! You finally posted a funny one, Beh! gotta go...enjoy my time off while you can.

[Behshad]

[Blueskies]

LOL! Andrew would add The Three Douches ( Dean, Frank & you) to that.

If so many people weren't so illiterate they would have understood what "bamboozle" means. How do you go to anything that says bamboozle and expect the real thing? Of course how do we do any of the thousands of stupid things that are done in this country everyday....we can't even get it right when it comes to electing a proper government for fucks sakes!

If you really gonna call anyone that pissed in your cherios a Douche, then you have to add some more people to that list:

Ariandu
DP
Saint John
Yulog
larryfromnextdoor
StevePerryHair
ScarabGator
artist4perry
Redjoepa
Andrew
Lula
Eric Ragno
Angel
TVL

and last but not least, MOTHER NATURE

[Blueskies]

I would say that its the opposite and I pissed them off at some point.




3 time edit just for you...hehehehehehehe

And that's to fix the spelling mistakes....she's got 10 times as many changes when she makes content 'corrections'

[treetopovskaya]

you guys are obsessed with phylis. };C)

[Behshad]

you guys are obsessed with phylis. };C)

And youre obsessed with Dean

[treetopovskaya]

Well define "you guys" then. cause there is a list of people who have been in feuds with Phyl, in all different topics.... and since you seem to be the one paying close attention to what is going on with Phyl, I guess youre the one who's obsessed with her, while the rest of us just have to put up with her over and over again.....

[strangegrey]

The crypt keeper and her, um, keeper?

[journeyrock]

There's more to this than Schon taking notice to the use of 'art' and/or the impression that Neal gets that these bands are presenting something fraudulant...I'm with Andrew on this....there's a bigger story here that what is current presented, and to suggest that Neal's 100% in the right here, is just being an Arneliot....


One thing, that i think stings, is that with Arnel singing for Journey (being a sound-alike replacement)....that makes very little difference between real Journey and say, Evolution, Escape or any of the other Journey tribute acts....It was way different when Journey was being fronted by already established lead singers like Perry, Augeri or JSS. But with Arnel it is a different story. No one knew him from a hole in the wall prior to his inclusion into the Journey lineup...


So there in lies the conflict. Journey tribute band singers and Arnel himself are not differentiated in ANY way possible. So that leaves the defining factor being the instrumentation. Perhaps Neal is just getting his back up over the fact that the only thing separating Journey from a tribute act is his playing? If that's the case, there's some merit behind his complaint...yet I will maintain it's tenuous at best. But Perhaps its more that he needs to voice his opposition to tribute acts so that he can brand-differentiate his singer.....if THATS the case, then his actions are pretty fucked up, because he's trying to do with words, what he was/is unable to do with his guitar.

If that is ultimately the case, perhaps it might be time to send the little pinoy back to manila and start thinking about this band's legacy again!
