Thanks, 'bot.

Gracious guy, for sure.
I liked his explanation on how he retained his vocal range, lol...

How so? I've got no opinion of the guy except that he has the hair of a troll doll.

I knew Jana would come in with an eye roll, doesn't surprise me at all. You just have NO clue at all about these guys, Jana.

RWF, the things that guy has said, about past members of the band...just not a classy guy at all. I won't go into detail, because the world doesn't need to know every little thing, he said, but he spoke not too kindly of past memberS of the band. That didn't sit well with me at all.

Two things Slingblade.

1) Castronovo ripped his alleged "brother," you know, the guy who was in the band, his band brother....ripped him to pieces.

2) You must have the absolute worst named avatar ever. You are heralding a EP album, Red 13, which was God awful and sold an astounding 1600 copies. I am ok with Joe Pa, but Red 13? Dude...... :oops:

So you bash Augeri for 4 years, accuse him of being a fraud, have gone on record about how you hate the band, past and present except Punxatawney steve (and I guess Rolie, Smith, Dunbar) but NOW get sanctimoniously protective of Augeri???

Dude it doesn't fly even if Castrobro-o took a shot at him.

I thought for sure it meant he bashed kinnison since he's the only one you speak positively of now (again after YEARS of bashing him :lol: ).


The name was something I picked in 3 seconds 5 years ago when I signed up.

Doesn't matter if I flip flopped or not...that's NOT the point. The point is Castronovo unloaded on Augeri. My point was to show you Journey lovers he is a bad guy, so he fits in nicely with this group of sharks...I just feel for Pineda....that guy is on a dangerous island to be sure.

Deano, when did Deen diss Augeri? When I was with him, he had nothing but praise. And we were off the record - no cameras rolling.

No, you're right. Deen is a sweet, honest broker, with nary a bad bone in his body. I just made it all up.

Fuck you in advance RobbieG.

Well he did give that interview after Augeri was gone that absolutely bashed in general the practice of lipping, that could be a little of what Deano's talking about.

Publicly Deen is a nice guy. Behind closed doors, not so much.

Oh I certainly remember Deen rollin' the bus overf Augi after it all went down. I was stunned afterf all the "brother" talk. But I always wondered what happened cuz I heard there was a time when he said he would split if Augi was canned?

The DJ says 'not to take anything away from Prairie Prince or Aynsley Dunbar'. Take what away from Prairie Prince? You can take more away from Nocturne's janitor for the efforts that were actually put into Journey.

Have to say I don't remember DC saying anything bad about SA, but I was away from the board for a long time.

Disappointing to hear he ripped Augeri (if he did?). These guys are a piece of work.

Can Soto talk about these guys or did he sign a confidentiality agreement?

You know what, name me any band that works together for years that hasn't had words about each other. It's why most bands can't survive past a certain amount of years. It doesn't make anyone a saint nor anyone a total jerk either. I love Tears for Fears, but their last tour before the breakup in 90 they weren't speaking to each other the whole tour and wrote nasty songs about each other later and a few sad ones. And they were boyhood friends. They came back together 12 years later and had dinner and realized maybe they could work together again and didn't even dredge up the past. Both realized they were at different places than they were then and tour sometimes but do it in small doses because friction would start again. Deen isn't a saint but he is a good guy who might have said something. Big deal. People should get over it or go find their perfect saintly band. I still love Steve Perry's voice even though he could be a ........

I tihnk what is being debated here is whether Deen is talking out of both sides of his mouth regarding Augeri.

He might have at one time, one instance publicly, in the heat of something when all of this was going down that wasn't fair or said a few choice words behind the scenes at one time. I don't know. But to paint him with a broad brush as not a nice guy across the board as a few have, sorry, don't get it.

Which is no different than any other member of the band, right?!?! :?

Or, better yet, whether or not these guys just said what they thought Deano wanted to hear. Whether or not anyone wants to admit it, these guys took the number one thorn in their sides (the guy that called them soulless, wished death upon them and called them every name in the book), took him in, were able to convince him to say nice things about them, made him feel important, exposed a certain amount of hypocrisy and then dumped him. And that's why Dean has such great disdain for them. They outsmarted him. Hey, I didn't see it coming either. These guys might be a lot of things, but dumb isn't one of them. Right or wrong, they handled their "problem."

Dude, when Deen saw me for the very first time, he sprinted over to me and jumped up and hugged me, thanking me profusely for Tapegate. yes, that's 100% true. Again, what you people don't know is blinding you.

You're completey full of shit and way off base here. No one outsmarted me. You sound an awful lot like RobbieG, towing the company line. What a joke. These guys aren't dumb huh? They were busted for lip syncing(that's pretty stupid), and not only were they busted, they decided to go out on yet another tour. Yeah, real smart. But I guess according to you, they weren't found out by the masses, and they retained their careers, so basically, "nothing happened." Man, they have got you wrapped up. it's pathetic to watch.

Oh for the record, let's talk about why I hold such disdain for these pricks shall we? Let's break it down. Is it a coincidence that people who have come to know these guys, hang out with them and pretty much see them in action, generally don't like what they see? Case in point. In addition to me, Strangegrey(Frank), did work for Journey(Website), and got to know them all...he doesn't like any of them. Our very own Andrew has come to know all these guys too. What's his deal with Journey? Oh, he doesn't care to fondly for them either. Coincidence? I don't think so. I dislike these guys because they are rotten scumbags. Dan, you sit behind a keyboard and refer to Lennon as a piece of garbage and Springsteen as a scumbag, yet those guys are admired worldwide, and in Springsteen's case, scandal free. Yet the Journey guys are heros and victims, and oh yeah, scandal free right? :roll:

You don't get it. He was super nice to me for getting rid of Augeri. Once I was gone soon after JSS was, Deen talked shit about me too, along with that scumbag Valory who told the British press I was a disturbed drug addict and an alcoholic, and that Tapegate was a figment of my imagination. As soon as Jeff was let go, Deen shit all over him too, making a reference in which I am not allowed to mention here. I can tell you tons of stuff about how Neal wanted Ross gone, and he wanted rolie back in...yes, he said those things. They were all nice to me....at first, because they were all truly happy with JSS, because they were kicking Lippards ass nightly and getting good reviews. As soon as they did Jeff the way they did, that was it for me. If you only knew what they said and did, you wouldn't admire them anymore. But I can't make you sheep believe any of it.

Yeah Dan, they all outsmarted me :roll: drew me in, and all that stuff. The after parties complete with an offer of free coke and booze, and all that stuff...no, it wasn't a master plan, as much as you think it was. You and RobbieG need to work on another theory. if anything, I am smarter than all of them. I, along with a few others, cracked the "smartest band's" lip syncing practice. They are so smart they used tapes that we already had in our possession. So it's either one of two things...1) They aren't as smart as I am, or 2), they are dumber than you think.
