Styx vs. Journey

[onestilllearning]

Hi Jerry,

You need to go home mummy is calling.

= Nobody can ever match DDY, don't think Larry even tries, but he is in his own right a great artist, I'm glad they carried on.

Yeah, yeah, the chronicaly depressed froy.

"Styx? Don't talk to me about Styx.
The first year without Dennis was horrible
The second year? Well, it was horrible too.
Today? It's the worst yet.

I'm not getting you down, am I?
I don't mean to get you down."

Now go have something that tastes almost totaly unline coffee, cut some toast with your light sabre...and do something productive with your life. Like, I don't know, sneeze your praises to God.

Froy: Dump Gowan he's trash

Adam: I think that's completely unfair. Gowan accepting the role of keyboardist/singer in Styx is no different than DeYoung accepting the role in Jesus Christ Superstar.

These are musicians. Neither one were stepping into their dream gig I'll bet. Dennis would rather be the WRITER of a Broadway hit and Gowan would rather have his OWN career take priority. But they're working musicians, and they were offered good paying jobs.

Think about you're OWN reality. Do you choose what corporation or business you work for their ETHICS and STATURE? Or do you consider the paycheck and possible future? I wouldn't blame ANYONE for working at McDonalds, working for the Sanitation Department or even Haliburton. Everyone needs work, and unless it's taking on the implimentation of genocide or something patently CRUEL I have nothing against your job.

Gowan sings songs and plays piano. There are alot more who believe he's talented than those who think he's "trash".

Logic has no part in this conversation, Adam.

Froy, if Cyclorama had of been crap, then yea I would agree no point continuing!!. But it ain't, It is a solid classic rock album from a solid classic rock outfit. Some tracks would be right at home on albums like GI, POE, PT. Not many "classic" bands are producing material true to their hayday, but Styx are. As long as they come up with the goods CARRY ON BOYS!!! I will support you

And, there would have been a giant fly on the cover instead of a giant carrot.

Ok Marvin the paranoid android. (if you've not read Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, you won't get this). Except you should have said instead of the "Today?" line... "after that they went into a bit of a decline"

Did you go see the movie this weekend? I'm planning to go this coming Saturday.

I'm glad we agree that Styx is the better band. Maybe not the more successful band, but the better band.

Stickie removed.
