I hope what I've read about him so far is true. I hope he won't change once success and fame set in.

Correct. Palagay ko destiny talaga niya yan. Imagine being discovered in such a way, tapos everything seemed to fall into place after that.

another personal blog turned arnel pineda fan blog, haha! i agree, he is such an inspiration to everybody. plus, how he has stayed down-to-earth through all of this, is such a humbling vision to me.

taas din ang kamay ko to neal and the rest of the journey band members. without their open-mindedness and acceptance of arnel's talents, i'm sure kumakanta pa rin si arnel sa hard rock hanggang ngayon.

i was reading one of the comments from one of the arnel articles (i forgot which one) and this guy was responding to one of those pro-steve perry fans. he said: all these years, journey has opened its doors to steve. however, it was steve who didn't want to come back. it's obvious that steve no longer loves journey, but arnel does. totoo naman di ba?

It's Arnel's destiny talaga. It was meant for him.

I was watching Bro Bo Sanchez some months ago and his topic for the night was about not giving up, because each one of us has his own niche, his own market. Its just a matter of finding that market for yourself. Arnel's story is the perfect validation of what Bro Bo said.

Sayang nga. But don't worry, if plans push through they might do a concert here before the year ends.

I'm sorry for not replying sooner. I am such a fan of Arnel. Not only because of his talent but also because of his story, how he persevered and succeeded.
