Why Can't This Blog...Go On Forever

This Blog has spoken and to those of you who wanted the truth, you got it....We have pieced most of what we could and it spells out L-I-E-S and D-E-C-E-P-T-I-O-N on Journey's part. It is so clear and evident, that this is just another foul smelling stench Journey has left behind for all to smell.

Sopranos Finale helps Don't Stop believin' bounce 482% and people are saying, "Journey are back! Let's hit the official website!" Upon arrival, they find a site which is down, out, gone. Beautiful timing. They are in the process of hiring a singer from a tribute band, and while he is a good guy, I am sure in time he will surely join the "Dark Side of Darth Friga and Emporer Schon. Too bad and too sad. I wonder if Jon sits at is mansion and wonders what a fuck up he really is? This guy is not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Neal plays guitar,and well, but dude should stick to doing just that, and not engineering trades of the lead singer position. Darth Friga meanwhile, continues to make sappy shitty ballads that a few 400 pound behemoths from BackTalk buy and fawn over, and he continues to be the easily the most hated guy in Journey. They have now made their cot, and must sleep in it. Good luck.

The blog has basically run it's course. Once again, BT and Journey are late for the party and empty handed. I feel for them. They remind me of Iraqi soldiers. Taking orders, and fighting with one sock, mismatched uniforms and no ammunition, all under General Azoff's commands. Funny thing is, the General can't remember his birthday or when he took his last shit. He doesn't even know who Journey is.

WOW!!The Sopranos and the hits on there site could've been huge!Once again they've missed the mark.All they really had to do was become a "Fan Of There Fans" but the fucking dollars signs got in the way once again.Now the fans and there legacy will be paying the price.

What a f'in mess this is. If you were as big a fan as me which you seem to be words cannot even express how I feel about all this.This is the biggest cluster I have ever seen. Take Care Deano.

Dean, I think you are the greatest fan ever for unveiling the truth. Everyone knows you and Jeff are friends, and most know you were tight with the band especially Neal. What I like is the fact you don't play favorites and speak the truth, unlike Journey or their pathetic imposters. Good for you deano, and trust you have fans who appreciate what you do . We are definitely done with Journey now, and had it not been for you, we would never know the shenanigans they pulled.

Love to you and your wife Lula, Deano!

Hahaha, you rule Deano! You slayed those posers last year and this year they are sitting ducks. That fat homo Rich Meyers refuses to believe...he is a fat fuck!

Go Deano!

Deano, are you on the bill? If you are, we are definitely making the trip from KC! We wouldn't miss this for the world! Andrew would be a fool for keeping you off!

Deano said...

Aww, thanks folks, but I am not on the bill in South Bend. I would like to go meet everyone and party, but I am not on the bill. I should do stand up in a nearby bar....but don't want to piss off Andrew.

So, no, I am not going to SB.

Anonymous said...

Deano, we bought air and hotels because you said you would be there! This can't be happening! Argh!

Please Andrew, let Deano perform!

bladesedge said...

I have to say that having all this happen right when the band's public profile has been hightened by the Soprano's things is just plain bad [make that BAD!!] management. The timing could not have been worse and, if what you say is true, the band has no website at the moment then it only makes a bad situation worse.
Whomever the decision maker(s) is/are really needs to take a reality check.

Whilst you say the blog has run it's course, I'm not entirely sure you're right, Deano. Yeah, you could argue it's been too heavy on the rhetoric.....but.....I think there is still more juice in this P.O.S' tank and we may yet have a few more miles to wring out of the ol' Chug-a-boom.
Stay with it, buddy.

Thanx Deano for the truth, which is virtually impossible in Journeyland. I hope KARMA smacks them down hard for how they treated Jeff Scott Soto.

Record deal? Nah.
MTV Unplugged? Nah.
Respect from new fans? Nope.
County fairs & hog washing events?
Just book it Azoff.

Dumb fuckers. Dumb fuckers with money, even worse.

Dean I thank you for putting up this blog. I hope it exposed Journey to more people as the cowardly backstabbing assholes they are.

And to annonymous....you are a complete jackass to attack Carl like you did. People like you don't deserve to lick the boots of people like Carl that defend our country and give you the right to spew the crap that you spew!! You are a disgrace!

Dammit Andrew! We have planned our weekend to Notre Dame to see Deano! Sure your bands are ok, but Deano would be the greatest....to see him do his rants on stage in front of thousands? Are you kidding me? You would be a fool not to put him on the bill!

If ticket sales lag, expect a call Deano! You are Andrew's ace in the hole!

Jeff was fired because he got to close to the homosexual flame. Neal and Jonathan Cain have been secretly lifemates for over 30 years now. It is one of the industry's most prized secrets. When Jeff walked in on Neal and Jon wrestling naked on top of the Whale he knew his days were numbered.

Anonymous said...

Shut your mouth.
Neal is no fruit.
Neal fucked me every which way from sunday on the tour bus.
Wierd thing is, after I climaxed, Jonathan began to cry and clasp his hands together proclaiming, "so beatiful, so beatiful!"

I''l never forget the night I went down on my girlfriend as "I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight" blared from my the speakers of my Oldsmobile.
For moments like these and hopefully many more, thank you Neiele Shawn for continuing the Journey.

I did see that they were deleted.....but I never got to see the 'opposing view' as your link didn't work.

I am not paying $45 to see this asshole stand up in front of the crowd and either dis. Journey or talk about the chili and beers he ate last night, real music critics will be there for crying out loud!

Not to worry, I won't be anywhere near Indiana in October. You're safe. You can rest easy now.

Seriously Deano, you should consider going...how often are you gonna get to see JSS perform anywhere in the States now that he's not in Journey?

Huh? I saw Jeff perform "Crazy" and some other tunes Saturday night. It's nice to be neighbours.

So, I guess this blog will die a slow death.

The Sopranos sparks tons of interest and the website is down. What a bunch of COMPLETE fucking idiots.

There is more mileage to be had, but we have to tread cautiously; can't tell you why, but let's just say the situation is fragile.

I didn't think cautiously was in your vocabulary. Thanks for the interesting read anyway, hope it continues. Raiderfan

Hey dude....yep, cautious now....Has to be that way, for now at least. However, if things go sour, depending on Journey's behaviour, this blog will be smoking white hot with rhetoric.

I can tel you Jeff is rebounding from this sideswipe of bullshit proportions and will return SOON with a full throttle CD and new and better than ever CD for HIS fans. You won't have to wait long for Jeff Scott Soto to put out new material....meanwhile, Journey will definitely give you a rousing time performing Anyway You Want It at your neighbourhood Carnival this summer..stay tuned!

PS_ The JSS Book is coming along nicely and will contain some eccentric shit for hardcore fans!

Anonymous said...

Can't wait for the new cd. I know it'll be amazing! Can't wait for the book even more, do I still get first copy like you promised? lol j/k ;)

Deano Sharpton, still fooling these people LOL You and Jeff are neighbors???? Right..... People wake up this idiot is nothing but a storyteller. I was hoping you were going to South Bend for the show.

Ross in Prestwick, Scotland said...

Old news particularly based on what this Blog has unearthed and discussed, but the comments below are from an email from Jim Rykbost (who played keyboards for Frontiers on some shows) which was to a friend of mine who was simply asking him if he had any links to some audio footage of Frontiers featuring Jim R:
'I played keys for all of their southern shows, here in the US...that was a Northern show, and I just happened to be up there. I just jumped on stage for three or 4 songs that night. The singer's name is Jeremey Hunsicker. He's an awesome vocalist, and even though I'm no longer in the band, we are all still friends. On a side note, I don't know if you've been keeping up with all the gossip...but Jeremey has auditioned for Journey just last week. They fired Jeff Scott Soto, because they wanted to go back to sounding more like the original Journey sound'.
Corroboration? Vindication? Further evidence? - take yer pick.

You will get the first copy, ok? You want it autographed? You need to come to our wedding and to get it autographed, ok?

Deano said...

Ross, would you be a kind Gent, and email me at derbydeano@yahoo.com.

I would like to talk to you about some stuff..thanks

Dean,

It's the 4th of July. I know you aren't working today. I just saw that idiot Rich Meyers blog, where he is challenging you. I have to assume you do want to go over there and bury is sorry ass, don't you?

Ed is an asshole!

Andy said...

You say they are looking to hire a tribute band singer.... I can only hope that it is Hugo who you are speaking of!

Steve Perry was the greatest of all, but truth is that he doesn't have the voice anymore. Hugo from Evolution not only sounds just like Steve, but he also looks like him! If Journey were to bring Hugo on, it would be the Journey of old.... because if you can't have Steve Perry, hugo is the next best thing,

Anonymous said...

Hugo makes Steve Augeri sound like Meat Loaf. Jeez, talk about no power whatsoever. My Grandma sings with more authority.

Allied Force said...

Dean, all I can say is you are a coward of the highest caliber. You refuse to address my comments at my blog and you delete my comments on yours.

This indicates you are afraid to engage in intelligent debate, or in this case any debate, with anyone that doesn't follow your lead and agree with your rants.

I've always said that you were unworthy of any of my time and your cowardice as far as refusing debate with myself, or anyone else with whom you disagree, speaks louder than any of the hate speech you spew on a regular basis.

What I get from your rants is that you have some severe psychological issues and look for attention through being as loud and abrasive as you possibly can be, by surrounding yourself with other weak-minded individuals and personally attacking anyone that doesn't partake in your koolaid parties.

I truly feel sorry for you. You need help. Unfortunately, you are surrounded by enablers, the biggest of whom runs one of the most popular websites in the World of Rock Music.

Until that individual pulls the plug on you, not temporarilly, but permanently, you will continue to unnecessarilly dominate any conversation on his Forums and make it impossible to have any sensible conversation there.

I truly believe you are a dangerous personality that needs to be dealt with before you cause irreparable damage to an innocent person.

I urge you to talk to someone soon about getting some sort of psychological intervention. If you can't, someone close to you should come to the plate and make the referral.

Deano said...

Ok Rich. It's on.

Amen. Say what you want about Perry, but he seems to be the only smart one, at this point.

Andrew:
Before you make a statement like Perry "doesn't have a voice anymore", I'd like to know where you get your info. Says who? Just because he is not in the limelight, doesn't mean he can't cut it. He still does recording, and the last demo "Lost Angels" that I heard him sing was spectacular.

NOTE: The "Andrew" poster in this thread is not to be mistaken with Andrew of MelodicRock fame.

Not the same guy.

Travelgirl said...

After reading the entire story on the Melodic Rock forum, can only conclude that Deano, besides being a misogynistic racist, (and practically illiterate despite launching vile attacks on everyone else for typos) was simply seeking a 15 minute shot of fame & attention. His entire "expose" had little to do with principle. This guy, suffering from delusions of grandeur, is a total celebrity sycophant, proved entirely by fawning posts to people of "stature" such as Lora Beard, JSS, Andrew & vicious attacks on posters he deemed as 'nobodies' ie anyone "unconnected to the band" & therefore unworthy of consideration. Boasting about "radio interviews" he supposedly had lined up (everyone wants me!!) & dropping tease tidbits such as "trust me I know" is indicative of a narcissistic & controlling personality disorder. He didn't 'save' Journey or the fans. And he was wrong. (about a lot of things). Perry did sing again. We all know how Deano would have expected a 65 year old man to sound just as he was in the 80's due to some latent desire to relive his long gone youth. All with the "disclaimer" of "its just my opinion" of course, embedded in some ethnocentric & absurd fantasy that people are 'entitled to their opinions" that simply is code for avoiding any accountability for their actions/behaviour

This whole drama didn't receive any attention outside this cliquey board, outside a blurb in Rolling Stone magazine (which Deano boasted about despite his so called hostility to such rags). Google it. You get one page, mostly with links to the MR board. So what did he do? Nothing.
