I am not a pop musician; I don't want to play bubble-gummy pop stuff.
Nobody's perfect. Everyone slides here and there, and they have their ups and downs. When they are down, that is not the time to step all over them.
What I have is a bunch of really hungry, amazingly talented guys that can kick anybody's rear end.
Beyond the Thunder is the closest I've recorded to an acoustic thing.
I'm just getting older and better.
The best part was watching Journey grow into this monster. The band was huge, playing these enormous gigs.
