Hello, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
You sure look good to me tonight.
When I was living in Los Angeles,
I was looking to get a record deal,
trying my very best.
It was tough to get signed at those times.
And I would always go to the Starwood
to see Journey perform
because these guys had the most amazing musical ability.
I'd never seen a band like that in my life.
Though their musicianship was absolutely par to none,
there was one instrument
that was flying above the entire city of Los Angeles.
That was the magic fingers of Neil Sean's guitar.
Somehow, one of my demo tapes
fell into the hands of Herbie Herbert.
And the next thing I knew, because of Herbie,
I was writing music with Neil Sean.
And the very first song we ever wrote together
was Patiently.
You remember that one?
So, I absolutely must tell you,
I must thank Herbie Herbert for believing in me.
Thank you.
Ainsley Dunbar, Greg Rolland, Steve Smith,
Neil Sean, Jonathan Cain, Ross Velio,
are you fucking shitting me?
Any singer would give his ass for that shit.
I mean, they play so well.
So, guys, I thank you so much for all the music we've written
and recorded together.
It will be forever in my heart.
Thank you.
I must give a complete shout-out
to someone who sings his heart out every night.
And that's Arnel Pineda.
Where are you, Arnel?
Where are you?
So, Arnel, I love you.
Lastly, the Fan Asylum was Journey's first fan club.
So, the fan club, Fan Asylum, was brilliant.
We want to thank them.
Now, speaking of fans
