What an incredible story of survival and pursuing happiness!

So when I was a kid, I played soccer and the better you played as a team you would make the playoffs and if you won the whole thing you got a trophy. But not in England anymore, they have done away with trophies in the interest of fairness. What a crock!
Great Springsteen parody all around.
Sometimes I worry about Jim Cramer and hypertension.
If it were me in the same situation I don’t know if I could have made it through like he did.
As it happened on NBC earlier today.
This seems about right.

Over the last 3 days I have been listening to Journey’s new album Revelation. It is a WalMart exclusive and it is a 2 CD and 1 DVD package. The first disc is all their new stuff with new lead vocalist Arnel Pineda a performer Neal Schon discovered on the internet playing with his cover band The Zoo in the Philippines and Hong Kong doing covers of Sting/The Police and of course Journey. He was flown out to the Bay Area for a 2 day rehearsal and he got the job. His vocals are strong and tops former vocalist Steve Augeri and on the new stuff could hold his own against Steve Perry. If you want to get an idea of Arnel’s ballad abilities just give “After all These Years” a listen, I believe it is comparable to Faithfully or Open Arms. You can also listen to disc #2 which has Arnel singing those and other hits as well. Finally,I need to make an open apology to Arnel, I have been one of those “Journey is not Journey without Steve Perry,” I am so wrong on that. With Arnel at the helm, Journey could be due for a resurgence. I would love to see Perry and Journey reconcile but it doesn’t sound like something that will happen anytime soon, I also would love to see Steve put out another solo album too. I also have to remember that Steve is now 59 where is Arnel is 40 and that is a big gap in vocal ability, even Sinatra sounded different in his 70’s then he did in his 30’s or 40’s and he is the standard bearer for vocal ability. So my advice go out and get the album even if it requires a WalMart run. The DVD is a concert they did in Vegas this year which is also entertaining.

Ok maybe not killer but I couldn’t resist the title.
