Journey with new lead singer, Arnel Pineda, just announced they will be performing at Harvey’s in Lake Tahoe on Jul 12. With tickets to the event to go on sale at Ticketmaster on Monday, April 7th at 10am. If you want to go to this I would seriously be lurking the Ticketmaster site on that morning because Tickets Now!, a ticket broker company, is already listing their projected resale ticket value at $263 for bleacher seats and $455 for floor seats.

Arnel’s first performance with Journey in February, 2008.

Arnel’s story is pretty amazing and could have never happened ten years ago. Journey lost it’s lead singer of 7 years in 2006 due to medical reasons. Although they found a temporary replacement, the band members knew they needed a permenant front man to carry on their legacy of Rock hits as well as move forward with some new arrangements. Guitarist, Neil Schon, was not having any luck finding anyone and as a last resort started surfing Youtube videos of singers and cover bands. He then stumbled upon a group of videos that featured a rock cover band from the Phillipines called The Zoo. Schon was impressed by the lead singer Pineda and emailed the person who posted the videos. When Pineda learned that Journey was calling asking him to audition he thought it was a hoax and ignored the request, but he was later peruaded by a friend who suggested, ‘what if it was for real’. Pineda traveled with his manager here (the San Francisco Bay Area) and in December of 2007 was chosen to be the new lead singer of the group. And even more amazing was that his first public performance with Journey was at a Chilean Music Festival that was broacasted to 25 million people worldwide after only 2 months with the band. The Chilean’s reaction to Journey with Pineda was so incredible they discussed new album options, a national tour and a world tour. A March 8, 2008, a sold out performance at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas confirmed all that would happen. Journey was back.

Yesterday, former member and corporate sponsor of The Greatest Kickball Team of All Time… Seriously Bro.com, C-Ville, announced in a text message to me that she and Paul were leaving the team and forming their own team to be called the Jabbajockeez. This makes 4 members of last years team, not returning this year (E-dog and Mellie are preg-o-s). And 2 more, me and Rod, who are unsigned. I have a prior commitment at the moment, and Rod may not be able to play if Mellie can’t.

TGKTOATSB.com manager, Das, currently in San Diego, did not return calls to comment. I also have not heard back from the league office at RMX Sports on whether this rogue team would even be allowed to register. More news to follow soon… as RMX officials and TGKTOATSB management gather during the Easter break to deal with this unexpected issue.

Happy Anniversary!

March 19 marked the one year anniversary of Jusint.tv. That was the day our friend Justin started broadcasting his life 24 hours a day, seven days a week. While he no longer lifecasts, his website, has evolved into the premiere live internet video channel with hundreds of new features added since that fateful day. Along with the new features came hundreds of new lifecaster channels (including our channels BlogWorldExpo, AllegedlySpeakingtv, famcam and Das’s channels whose names I can’t remember), thousands of viewers and millions of page hits. As Yahoo, Youtube and Google all try to startup their live video sites, they’ll have to do battle with Justin Kan and his experienced set of founding members.

It may seem like just another Webside Story, but in my 2.3 attempts at building the website for my sports events company, i’ve compiled a take on a few things. Below, are 9 of them: (disregard if you are disinterested

1. In regards to being Web Savvy, resourcefulness trumps ability. Moreover, resourcefulness and ability are conduits for web affluence.

9. These days, you can bet your last dime, that somebody out there is inventing tools that will help provide you with the arsenal needed to produce achievements. If you can arm yourself with the basic requirements, your own merit and drive will help you accomplish the rest.

That said, I’d like to announce that in the very near future, I (along with 2 of my cohorts) will release the doves in honor of the official launch of the RMX Sports website. Alas, our home built sports network & community has a thoroughly interactive place to congregate. Our longterm plans are to expand our events to other cities, states, and nations. If anyone would like to lend a brother (cousin or uncle) a hand, we take volunteers. If any of you youngins wanna gain some valuable experience, wanna get your work published on the web, or just wanna get involved, we employ interns. I’ve already recruited my brother Nick to be one of our Junior DJ’s. Our events specialize in the multimedia athletic experience.

There are a few more T’s to dot, and a few more Eyes to cross. But, what better a reason to party than an inter-family website launch? Join us! If not, enter a team into one of our events!

In case you were keeping track of this…Last weekend, in response to his girlfriend, Sarah Silverman’s, video, “I’m F******G MATT DAMON”. Late night talk show host, Jimmy Kimmel fired back with a video of his own titled “I’m F*****G BEN AFFLECK”. It’s pretty hilarious, make sure to check them both out.

(Click on photo)

To bring some of you up to speed with how this all started, talk show host Kimmel has been doing this running gag where he signs off at the end of his shows by pretending that they have run out of time for the last guest which always happenens to be Matt Damon. After running this gag for a long time, they then invited Matt to appear at the end of the show so Kimmel can “bump him off face to face.” The joke was a hit and thousands of people thought it was real. Then Kimmel sent a cast member from his show to cover a Matt Damon movie premiere at an L.A. theater. Damon appeared surprised. Matt then got his revenge with the help of Sarah Silverman when they filmed “I’m F*****G MATT DAMON”. The Ben Affleck video has to be the final chapter in this saga…I can’t see what the next move could possible be. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
