Kalen DeBoer's favorite band

Journey.

TLDR: I had a Journey album once as a kid. It had some okay songs.

Longer: Remember those record company deals where you could get 6 albums for a nickel if you agreed to receive a letter every 4 weeks for like 2 years and you had to return the enclosed coupon to decline the next album they'd send. If you didn't return it you were then obligated to buy the album after they sent it to you, at some inflated price.

For reasons I don't remember I often forgot to return those decline coupons and wound up with a few albums I would have never purchased otherwise. Not only did I forget to return those decline coupons, but I also neglected to return the resulting invoices with expected payment.

That is how I wound up with a Journey album, and also Foghat, Yes, and Edgar Winter. Stuff that didn't really interest me that much... and I suspect stuff that wasn't flying off the shelves for the record company.

After some time had passed the record company began sending me collection letters demanding payment. I think they threatened legal action or something like that.

I was only 14 at the time and so my dad wrote back to the record company telling them that I wasn't old enough to enter into a contract with them and they should fuck off.

They stopped sending me records after that.

A couple of years later my lutheran church youth group decided to publish a youth group hymnal, and so we all submitted the lyrics to songs that we thought should be in the hymnal. I submitted Journey's song Wheel In The Sky, and to my surprise the youth group leader let it in -- I don't think she realized it was a song from a rock band.

Cool story I know.

And yeah, I might be going to hell.

I remember getting swindled by BMG. Same concept yet cd’s. $20 for shipping and handling. I don’t remember the other two but two of them was the chronic and doggy style. I blame those two cds for me being the way I am today. Better or worse.

DeBoer won't stop believing. He's a city boy born and raised in South Dakota

Anyway you want it that's the way you get it

Hey ducks who's sorry now?

Anyway @HarveyRoad and I know that Neil Schon is one of the most underrated guitar players of all time. He dragged Journey on his back to the top. And its a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll

People forget that Journey had hits before Steve Perry joined. They forget that

Went to the Toto/Journey concert in Spokane this spring.

Neil Schon was a'ight. Clearly an attention whore with solos that seemed to go on for weeks.

The lead guitarist guy from Toto was better.

Only the Young would Hold the Line on that one.

I heard from multiples that Toto blew them off of the stage.

It actually wasn't even close.

Toto killed.

 
NOC about 70 year olds

Mother fucking this. And no one cares about 40 year olds that matter.

The list of artists who were still in peak form past age 40 is pretty short and it's skewed towards jazz, saloon singers and cuntry.
 
Guess me and DeBoer are gonna have to go our separate ways.

If he throws out a deep cut as his favorite I could give him a pass. Witchy Woman… it’s over.

Try and Love Again has some amazing harmonies and a killer guitar solo
 
The DJ booth at the Natty game did some fan vote survey of songs to play and, of course, don't stop believing won. It was late third quarter I think. Should have known that was ominous.
