Joey Molland's BADFINGER 08

[60syeah]

I don't think so, he's a jerk!!!!

[60syeah]

Joey is a cheat and a very bad singer.

@60syeah i see you're part of the minority.

I take it that you have all read that dreadful book, without you. I see by the negative comments about Joey that you have all had your minds poisoned.What a sad man Dannyboy mato is he is that obsessed with Pete ham, he has got a ouija board and he sits trying to contact him at night. Is there anybody there? well as the saying goes in Dans case the lights are on but there is no one at home.

Joey is fab, a true great.

Sorry, but the band I just watched in this video has its name misspelled... It should be Badsinger.

I miss Rockfest I, here in Brazil june 21, 2008 ( Joey´s birthday ). Joey, Billy, John, Steve and the very nice guy Mark was fantastic. Some people don´t like Joey, but he is a true survivor of Badfinger and still keep the band on the road. I respect and like so much this dedication ! Long live Joey !

Oh my...

God bless Joey for kepping it alive. He sounds great, but the others...Whoa!

Goes to show ya, not only were Pete and Tom top notch song writers, but top pop vocalists. Real ear candy when you listened to them. As you can hear now, they're sorely missed.

Joey IS Badfinger? Does he ever actually do a real tour with someone who actually sounds anything like Pete Ham or Tom Evans? I've been sorely disappointed every time I witnessed him in the last twenty-five years. Airwaves tour was decent though.

[rockon1898]

Personally I'm surprised how really good Billy Davis sounds. Granted, he's no Pete Ham, but he does make the effort and has a pretty convincing Brit accent for a NY boy who before BF played in a Georgia band! If anyone else would have been a terrific choice, it would either be Peter Beckett from Player, who actually rehearsed for the job Joe got, or John Wilson, who led the Dodgers, the first post-BF band Tommy (RIP) formed after Peter died.

Joey is Badfinger. As a matter of fact, he owns the name. Looking at all the videos on You Tube, it looks like most everybody who attends one of his concerts is very satisfied. You appear to be in a minority. I suggest you don't go to any more concerts. He gives a wonderful performance and always mentions Pete and Tom on their songs.

[Kristenbillick]

Right, Joey is Badfinger. He sounds like he's gargling rocks when he sings. Why not get a Pete Ham type singer to do the vocals? This is a total ego trip. Billy Davis does not even remotely sound like Pete Ham. Mark Healey does not. Play YOUR songs Joey. Joey Molland is Joey Molland.

Kris - You seem to be in a minority.

[favorsham]

I'm with Kris. Notice that none of the vintage hit songs shown are Joey's? He lost me when he accepted an ASCAP award on behalf of Badfinger for "Without You" without even acknowledging that it was written by Pete & Tom - not him! He completely snubbed the Ham & Evans families who were at the ceremony and were not allowed to speak. Way to invalidate your old bandmates, Joey, real class.

[Trevor1050]

You should get your facts straight before you slag Joey. He wasn't the only one who accepted an award so why didn't you mention Mike or that duffer Collins? Also Joey did not snub the Evans family. I have pics of them all together at the party afterwards. There was no one there from the Ham family so how could he snub them?? I think you've been listening to a meddling monster.

[favorsham]

I based my comments from an interview I read with Pete Ham's wife and daughter, who seem pretty bitter. I don't assert to know more about it than that - if you say the Hams were not there, I wonder why not?  Even so, Pete & Tom should have been credited as the composers.
