Y'all bitched about this lockout clean out happening and didn't even pay attention to it. I already said I thought it might have been posted earlier but thank you kindly for doubling down on that, most useful. You are a major asset to this forum.

What the hell are you talking about? 8 hours ago, LGR4GM said: I think you are missing my point. Talk it about it all you want but don't invent BS about it (not saying you specifically). The entire idea that the cleanout won't happen and that now that it is it will be scripted and there is some dark reasoning for having limited players available because of a company line they have to repeat is just bs conspiracy theory nonsense. All teams have locker cleanouts, all teams have limited players they send to the press. Again: What in the hell are you talking about?

A few posters said first that the Knights would not have any press at locker clean out so they could control the narrative around the team. Others jumped in after the clean out was announced to claim because select players would be available it was the ones who had memorized the company line. Both were bs.

Another fun fact about Journeys power ballad, it’s Spotifys top streamed song from the 80’s and in Apples top 5, yet peaked at # in the Billboards top 100 in 1981. Why the late success? The Sopranos final episode? edit - I was always a fan. From day one of listening to the Escape Lp.

Because Mrs. Doohickie (well we weren't married yet, but yeah, her) liked them. I liked their early stuff but they rode the pop gravy train too much for my liking.

Pimlach Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 Actually, I never cared for them very much and never bought a record or CD by them I picked the song because it’s popular and I wanted to change the conversation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Infinity and Evolution are solid albums. Escape is okay. Then I kinda lost track. Edited May 4, 2022 by Doohickie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw them at an outdoor Emerson Lake & Palmer show where they were the opening act and it started off fine, keyboard driven rock(ish) tunes I don't really remember and then they went "we want to introduce our new lead singer" and suddenly that audience went wtf is this? Who knew that new version would become mega stars. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knew that new version would become mega stars. Yes, I was aware they were kind of a fusion jam group prior to Steve Perry but I didn't hear of them until they hit pop gold with "Feeling That Way/Anytime" from Infinity which were almost always played back-to-back on the album rock stations and even some pop stations. And then from Evolution there was the same thing with "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin/City of the Angels" Edited May 4, 2022 by Doohickie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 7 hours ago, PerreaultForever said: idk how many are old enough to remember this, but they started as a sort of prog rock band with a couple of ex members of Santana I think.

Who knew that new version would become mega stars. I was aware of the general backstory, but certainly not the specific story/tour you're referencing. And I mean, at the time they were getting started, just about errrr-one was essentially a prog band of some stripe or variety of prog (unless you were true geniuses, say, like Devo). It's fashionable nowadays to say that "Album Oriented Rock" (or Adult Oriented Rock) is separate and distinct from progressive rock. I never really heard it that way, and still don't. IMO, the reason that a song like Don't Stop Believin' is an absolute banger and anthem is that Journey was able to call on, incorporate certain prog DNA (and other stuff - thinking like Black Sabbath's treatment of the blues) to create a song that, while it works as radio-friendly pop, is really a remarkable and unusual song from the standpoint of structure and composition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
