And...Abe....as far as busting my chops over how long Mecca II took imagine what Frontiers said!!! Ugh!!! It was all worth it for me though, it was not the hard rock album some expected, but it fit my voice and since I was solo and did not have my man Fergie next to me like on Mecca I choices needed to be made...in the end I was very happy with the album...I think Tommy D and Eric would agree!!

Well....since TD and I are or were very close with both guys I will weigh in as well...Bobby was an amazing talent, one of the best...buut as singers time catches is all ( unless you are Richard Page )....BUT as far as Luke being dark????? All I can say is that he has been an absolute class act since Toto ended, then reformed with 3 original members...Luke has not said boo about BK and drugs (Luk

Hey Guys... I guess I am in the minority, but I really do dig it....I see what he was going for...moody, lyrically it threw me because I had No freaking idea what he was talking about....Guess I have been in Chicago too long ;-)....BUT....sonically it is vintage Bowie....super bass heavy....and cool clean guitar parts....it surely is not pop pablum, nor mindless drivel as some infer, I did enj

All I can say is I am blown away with this album...I have really liked all of Steve's solo work....but this far surpasses those...Tracks 2 - 4 are most definitely his finest work with the pen, or guitar in his career...The rest of the album is 10/10, those 3 are 11/10....The emotional content he unleashed on this recording is unlike anything I have ever heard him do...This album moved me like the

I will get to writing those return emails, but wanted to Thank you guys....it is VERY hard thinking that last year while doing Mecca II it was my last hurrah of sorts.....that the high range was going to

Rudy is a GREAT player.... Too many people do not understand the role of the bass player....I am knocking no one in particular here, but he has a very specific role in the rhythmic landscape of a song....especially in certain genres of music....Rudy has played with MANY amazing bands and artists because he understands that the bass player is there to SUPPORT the rest of the band....mainly the

I agree Coco.... And while you are at it we should remove all the American Bands and Artists which are what?...about 50 percent or more of the melodicrock genre??? Let's see how long AJM has a site then!!!! I rarely post here, as it is purely a vitriolic bitchfest....but I guess when the Brits bitch about us I get a tad...pissed off??? Because let's face it.....AJM had his two fests her

Hi Steve... I would NEVER say anything derrogatory about his music or voice, or his band...I leave opinions like that to those better suited than myself...meaning the fans...I am also quite confused on how this all benefits him....but he claims it does... I only know M.E. from here, and the few times we met....so I do not have a deep enough knowledge to comment on his motives, or personalit

NO Disrespect to Richie at ALL!!! NONE!! But just as I said, M.E. said he makes more money when these "discussions" happen.....all I meant.... I put my own post questioning some facts as well, since I was brought up in the original diatribe... That's all.... JV

I will help Andrew out on this one as he is quite pissed off and disgusted at this point.... M.E. stated the merch/CD's were thrown out in a dumpster because Andrew did not meet a 24 hr deadline to retrieve it....I did however let M.E. know I felt this was not a "reasonable" deadline...but none the less... I did try to retrieve it for AJM....I was willing to drive out and get it,

First...Yes I offered up my place for the pre-show party (as I was sick and could not do the show and wanted to see my friends anyway)...for about 50 people with ALL food and FULL liquor and beer FREE for all (until about 3am, hanging with Josh and Eric was a trip)...I was happy to help a friend out, it was NOT as Eden put it as a way for AJM to scmooze firefest guys (I assume that is who Eden wa

I had a post or two on his FB, pretty much saying I wasn't taking sides but I felt all the banter and fighting should stay between the band...he said the fans love drama, and that pretty much answered that...it is now all removed as well.... Maybe a corner has been turned????
