A Sad Day

Hello and welcome.

If you are here, you must be here to learn the truth about what happened to a once great band, now reduced to rubble. Well, you have come to the right place. Everything I post here will be 100% truthful, regardless of what Journey tells you on their official website. They haven't told the truth for years, and I don't expect them to start anytime soon.

I will update this blog daily, and will include a message forum for people to ask questions.

Be sure to check back regularly for updates.

Go Deano Go. We need the truth for cryin' out loud!

What blows me away is that they could have gained so much this week from the Sopranos yet they choose to create a huge riff with their fan base. They aren't even trying to seperate themselves from Perry. Which has gotten even harder to do when you pull crap like this over the past year.

I think your comments regarding Jeremey are really unjustified Dean, are you just jealous? you just want to ruin it for him and that's sad and really low. I will not be sending you the nice gift I had bought for the twins either. Shame on you!

Can't wait Dean!

anonymous people are cowards... ignore their posts...

Just shootn' straight, I never really did understand Soto as the choice last year. Everybody knows he's a great, great singer and talent. But the lead singer for Journey?

Anyway, now that he's out, anybody other than Perry will be a joke I think.

Any reason there's no mention of JSS on the Blog front page? Folks passing by might want to know what's going on....

This is a sad day for Journey, for all of us. I hope the guys are not being sued or something and protecting Jeff? maybe we really don't know the whole story but looking forward to what you bring Dean.

Honestly, will anyone take them seriously with yet another singer? Or maybe most folks don't care and just wanna hear the old songs.

I am shocked and saddened that there seems to be no such thing as respect or honesty with this band.Thanks Deano,I'm sure this is going to be interesting to say the least.

O well. That's too bad. We can make it without you. I like Jeremy. Nothing against Jeremy. he knows that. However, he is asking me to support this lineup, however, at the same time he insists he isn't the new singer.

Huh?

I would respect someone who spoke the truth. Jeremy, God bless you. You are going to need all the help you can get with these pricks. Trust me, I know them all. They are the worst people I have ever met.

The truth is out there. People need to know. Thank u Dean for doing this.

Anonymous said...

I can't wait... another fan who "thinks" he knows what happened and what's going on. You are not working for the band, you never have, you have no insight other then what you think. You mis-read into everything. You have no idea what the truth may be. One on hand you have a band issuing a simple professional statement and moving on. One the other hand you have a guy who is going to act like a little child and cry instead of being a professional, wishing everyone the best and moving on. And then there is you, stirring the pot with bile and hate over things you really have no clue about. What a sad life you must lead.

doctor_feelgood said...

Well done Deano and good luck in your quest to name and shame these backstabbing asses for what they really are.

You have my support all the way.

I (as i'm sure everyone else has!) have had a gut full of the bullshit this band has fed us over the past few years.

First there was the Trial By Fire fiasco where Perry returned for an album and fucked off again...

We then had the Augeri miming fraud last year and the cover up that followed...

...and now this with Jeff. "Oh, it was an amicable split" they say, BULLSHIT Journey, you forget that this is a world of the internet and Jeff is a friend of the fans and is in very close touch with them. We KNOW you used him and discarded him, and after all that he sacrificed for you.

Fuck you Journey.

Who really cares anyway?
It's only a band! A very old band tooboot!!
They will find a singer and carry on. They will find a good band to tour with, and carry on. People will still love seeing "Journey", as long as they keep playing the hits.
The JSS fans will have to get over it,just like the Perry and Augeri fans have done.
The forum people probably make up only 1% of their fan base anyway.
This is all a waste of time.
so what? maybe a couple of hundred of crazy internet crazed fans are angry! big deal! Journey will continue. Average people don't care what a band does, they just want a good show. It's just the internet loons that go on and on and on!!!!!
This too shall pass.
I can't get over all the hate, by a bands decision.

Dean,

Don't you have more important things to worry about like the health of your pregnant girlfriend and your twins? This should be your focus right now! They are what's important, Journey isn't. It's all well and fine to be pissed as hell and it is definatly wrong of the band to do what they did, but you did enough damage to this band and the fans in the past. Get a life & focus on the loved ones in your life! Stop spreading so much hate! It will only come back to you and right now you need all the good blessings you can get with the babies on the way.

Good luck on the healthy birth of your babies, I hope you dont teach them to hate like you do.

Deano, let me know if you need a proofreader for your book.

I'm not sure what the person is talking about regarding "Deano's comments about Jeremy". Are those here or at MR?

I see Deano's response to that person and I can see why he said that, but I don't see the original remarks. What am I missing?

Dean,

when is your book coming out, i would like to buy it.

For the record, Perry did not 'returned for an album and fucked off again...' He was fucked OVER! IMO Neal's ego just cannot share the spotlight; he needs more attention and recognition than anyone else on stage with him. Never cared for Augeri's voice, although he is a nice guy. JSS did a GREAT job and baled them out on SHORT notice only to be fucked over. Jeff, thank you for your professionalism and energy; we enjoyed you in concert with Journey (we were right up front!) as always. Dean, thank you for telling us the truth. Journey has gotten themselves into all this shit, and THEY are the ones who look like fools, THEY are the ones who should feel embarrassed and ashamed....NOT Augeri or Soto! And finally, for all those who accused Perry of just 'walkin' away' or being a 'deserter' - it should be OBVIOUS now just how badly he was fucked over! No wonder he wouldn't come back - then or now. This kind of shit happened BEFORE Perry; personnel changes I'm referring to. Perry put Journey 'on the map' and 'on the radio.' Journey was not successful BEFORE Perry, and they certainly have not been successful AFTER Perry. What a sad day, indeed; my Journey of 28 years as a fan is now over. I'll watch my bootleg dvd's of a great band that was; I won't be attending half-assed concerts that will be a sad 'imitation' of what they used to be!

My name is Dean Ohlrich... I am a pathetic loser with no life... my life revolves around a rock band that doesn't give two shits about me.

Who gives a crap about a washed up band. And what makes you think they shared anything with this Dean character. From what I've heard, he's loser.
