Congratulations, mr prosecutor sir!

They look they neither are reviewing the old tapes just for live rehearsals nor for the purpose of rerecording the whole album. We're both right, both wrong.


This is what Cain said.

"Arnel has this idea for ‘Arrival,’ he really wants to sing those songs. He feels that ‘Arrival’ just didn’t get the love that it should have gotten, maybe because it was CBS dropping the ball for us or something, I don’t know. That was an ill-fated album, but when Arnel listens to it, he’s like “I’d love to sing this stuff.”

So we’re looking at that – do we go back there and do that? I certainly have all of the tracks, I could simply just go “bang” and put out a new CD and see how that goes too, so that’s another idea that we’re looking at."


Even if they re-record Arrival, it's not like they will play the stuff live. I had a change of heart and went to the Hollywood Bowl show this year because I had heard that they would be doing "something different" that night. What that ended up being was a 10 minute fireworks display, not as I had hoped finally playing AIP, the one Eclipse song that had actually charted.
One song from Eclipse, no songs from Revelation and now we are talking about re-introducing Arrival tunes also?

No idea what you're saying - I don't think u do either. In both interviews, Neal and Jon are talking about re-recording Arrival material.

Whatever they do it needs careful management. A re-release of the whole album is not at all meaningful and not commercial friendly at all...they might come up with something different which would satisfy fans' curiosity....because that's the most probable motive i think... to hear a tune from a different perspective and that's all. The most probable thing is to re-record a couple of tunes and slip them in a new release like bonuses or what , just like the two generations re-records in Revelation, which was not a bad idea...or then what? putting together a GH cd of post Perry re-recorded songs? Not likely...

So argumentitive over absolutely nothing. Who gives a shit I just think it's preposterous to rerecord and entire album, especially one like Arrival and nowhere does anyone say that's happening. That's what I am saying.

They're not putting out an album in 2012 from what I read. The band will tour the states but Asia seems a no go and if Europe happens it will be limited to the Festival circuit.

I'm curious as to what happened to Asia. I thought for sure they would play Japan and Manila again. Come to think of it, in those countries, Eclipse might be a reason to be wary of potentially poor concert attendance.

I don't get it? ....WHY..WHY...can't they stop living in the past..if they re-record Arrival...IMO they are a tribute band to themselves! Does AP want to sing those songs because they can't come up with anything better...ie Eclipse???

Seriously, re record? Are they that creatively bankrupt as to where they can't write anything new worth a shit? Well, apparently so, as Eclipse was a hunk of shit if there ever was one. Revelation was 'ok" but c'mon already? There is plenty happening in societey and the world right now: 2 wars, economic strife, climate change, Wall Street vs Main Street, European meltdown, earthquakes, tsunamis, dictators dropping like flies, Obama, "oops", "9-9-9", Penn State, and so on....you mean to tell me Friga can't grab some Wylers and head out to his back porch overlooking his Tennessee pond, and write something relevent to current events, rather than rehashing stupid lazy love references that anyone of us here can conjur up on the shitter before we go to work? Journey never have been great songwriters, but Lord knows the material is out there to draw from.

Most of their peers, (some with even their original vocalist), aren't recording or re-recording anything. Given the lack of public demand, Journey has been pretty prolific. I'd leave Arrival alone tho.

This I agree on. A few songs maybe for a future disc 2 but that's it. World Gone Wild actually sounds like it could stand for a redo.

With TNC on this one. Music, for me, is entertainment.......not the news. For most, music is an escape from all that shit. :lol: Loved Mellencamp, but more turned off of his stuff lately for that reason. I don't care what their views on war, wall street, Obama, etc. etc. is. Just sing/play me some songs with feeling (ballads) or passion (rockers) and this fans all yours. :D

I love Dean's views and what he just wrote was gold. But I agree with you, TNC. Didn't Journey just write a song called 'Winds of Freedom' that actually sucked donkey dick and only played it like, once for the occasion? 'Faith in the Heartland' is supposed to be about Freedom and our troops as well. 'World Gone Wild'? All of what Deano describes up above is all wrapped up in one song out of Journey's enormous catalog. Everyone harps on Journey for making a new album and claims they are nothing but nostalgia anymore but turns around and wants them to create something they've created time and time again if you listen closely.

Journey has been in this mega-rock business and has churned out their best YEARS ago, but yet, still puts out relevantly good, new music to the fan regardless if you like it or not. To my understanding and from what I've seen, Journey is still a hot-circuit in the touring world and more and more of new fans are showing up to concerts. Of course they are there to see the dirty dozen, but why not keep making music for their own sake and play it anyhow to keep people like ME happy (I love their new material and believe they should play it MORE rather than less!) I love Eclipse, some people don't but what Journey did with that album is refreshing because what they did with Eclipse is something fans say they NEVER do and for that, I'm glad they went with it.

Leave Arrival alone.

Could have been a huge album in the right musical climate and with label support.

Now if Arnel wants to perform some of those songs LIVE = all for it! :)

Odds are I'd find things that come up more on a regular basis that have become common knowledge over the years. In times past with the few brief conversations we've had, there's been implications that there's more, but something prevents delving into it. Always great to hear him chime in though anyway.
