Have a question for me? Email it!
-MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION EVER:
Why do you support the band even though they hired ______ and/or did _______?
I don't support everything they do. Just because I moderate their forum doesn't mean I don't have opinions. I just don't care enough to rage about it in public.
-Will you send me a video or a demo track?
No.
-Steve Perry's solo stuff is on here. Why don't you have Jonathan's/Neal's?
Because then I'd have to include everyone else's, too. I don't have all of those guys' side projects, or the money for them. Try their official sites for info.
-Why didn't you include this/that video?
I gave my best judgement on what qualified as a true music video. Basically, if it airs on VH1 Classic, I included it.
-I have an album/video/single you left out! Why isn't it on here?
If there's something missing, please, by all means email me. Chances are I don't know about it, so I'll need all the information you can give me (and a scan). And as always, you'll get credit. Hooray, credit.
-Do you still write fanfic?
No.
-Where can I find Journey fanfiction?
The Journey Library still exists, but it has been reduced to just a few works. When you're done with that, get lost in The Holy Shrine of Journey. Also, check out the archive of Double Obsession. If you're a fan of slash (aren't we all), check it out.
-You're a sick person! I'm emailing Journeymusic/Fanasylum about this!
Go ahead, they know and they don't care.
-Put up a gallery!
I will not not not not not NOT put up a gallery. If I put up more pictures, everyone's going to hotlink and the site will go over bandwidth.
-Does Journey know about this site?
It's possible. I'm not sure, though.
What if someone from Journey did see this site?
I hope they would appreciate the effort.
Taken directly from the guestbook:
-Are you in contact with any of the members of JOURNEY?
No, I am not, so stop signing my guestbook like I'm Steve Perry.
-Have you ever met Steve Augeri before, in person?
I have met Steve Augeri, but it was just a split-second picture. That might be a good thing, because if they let me hang around him too long, he might never be able to pry me off of his leg.
-Have you ever met the band?
Yes. I was privileged enough to be able to spend some time backstage in Marysville, CA in 2006. Jeff and Jonathan were very nice, and the rest of them I didn't get chance to chat with. In the past, I got to shake Steve Perry's hand at the Walk of Fame and I gave him one of my sketches. I met Jon once before, when he played in Mark and Brian's celebrity golf tournament. He was very nice then, too. Here's a picture. I'm on the left. Go Bruins.
-If you were to work for the band, what job would you like to do?
I guess technically I "work" for them by moderating their forum, but it's not paid. I was asked to create an official MySpace for them in 2006, which lasted a day... MySpace forced the band to share a profile with Sony. Thanks for that.
-Who are you really?
Just a girl with an obsession.
-How can I write directly to a band member telling him how he influenced my life?
Well, there are no real direct ways to reach any of them. Jonathan Cain may get your message if you email his website. Jeff Scott Soto probably reads his MySpace messages. Since Steve Perry does not have an official website, there is no sure way to get in contact with him. The closest you might come is by contacting him through FanAsylum if he ever does another Q&A with fans.
