Screw him. I used to think he walked on water. He was amazing in his time, but he is nothing but a bitter fat Man.

To possess the hate he does for Mr. Perry is so strikingly obvious, anyone with a brain could see that interview was biased and one sided. Yeah, we know you love Neal, great. But why the hate for Perry? Am I the only one here who see through his bullshit?

Herbie, you you need to be more leve headed for me to believe you any longer. That interview isn't worth a ripped condom.

Herbie's record speaks for itself. The dude made Journey a colossal act, and took very mediocre acts like Mr. Big and Roxette to the top. He was in almost complete control of Journey until 1984...then someone else decided to take control and the band sold 3-4 million albums over the next 14 years. Perry wasn't shit without Herbie and what he did to Journey from 1984 to 1998 is proof of that, as is FTLOSM (a menagerie of garbage), it's poor tour numbers and the way Perry wimpered out of Journey with an aborted tour.

Out of respect for a giant meltdown and some serious turmoil. I am not going to fight you on this.

Dude, you are so wrong on this it isn't funny.

Carry on.

After I read the interview that Andrew just did with him I went back and read the Castles Burning interview.
The thing that annoys me about HH is that he seems to try to take all the credit for Journey's hit songs, as opposed to giving the band credit for them. In that interview he kept saying things like "I got that song in the top ten" "I turned that song into a hit" etc, etc. He may have done a good job promoting the band and helped get the radio stations to push the songs a little more, but he never mad a song go top ten, they went top ten because they were great songs.

I don't doubt at all that HH lied about some things in both interviews, and I think he needs to take a look in the mirror when he criticizes some people in some ways. But I also do think that a lot of what he said about Perry is true.

When HH says that Perry never cared about his fans, I don't agree with that. When he makes Perry out to be satin, I don't believe it. But I think it's obvious that Perry did continually stab the other members of the band in the back, and did selfishly build himself up and tried to take all of the credit for Journey's success for himself.

I would never totally trust either Steve Perry or Herbie Herbert on what they would say about each other.

Nope..I wrote before the interview was posted that who's to know anyway what to believe is the truth or not on certain things.
Just because he says it doesn't make it truth.
I didn't take much stalk in letting certain things in the interview get to me..because I figured a lot of it was just his opinion or him 'talking'
