Default Joey

Could Joey be another "Tommy and Gina". Not only do we get the song Joey on Bounce, but he is mentioned in Wild In Streets too;

"Joey comes from a sacred part of town..."

Anyone know?

lol i never thought about the wild in the streets joey- but compare the wild joey to the "slow" joey keys who couldn't read or write too well... that doesn't really match,does it?

And the Tommy and Gina from Livin' On A Prayer and It's My Life do?

In Wild In The Streets we only hear the name once at the start, and whose to say someone who can't read or write too well couldn't enjoy themselves; be Wild In The Streets.

I don't know if anyone remembers this....

But Rosscoe actually picked this up as soon as Bounce got released....and I think that they are the same character (Just like the tommy and Gina songs).

However I don't think we will see any more of Tommy and gina, b/c as someone else said a while ago...Jon said that he wanted to give them a happy ending in its my life.

I think it is the same Joey it is too much of a coincidence of it not to be.

I noticed that to about Joey in Wild in the Streets and wondered if it was the same guy, Joey is a very Italian name, maybe John has known quite a few Joeys. Perhaps ask at BJ HQ.

I have heard that Joey in "Joey" is not the same Joey who is in "wild In The Streets".

Tommy & Gina in It's my Life are the same ones who are in Prayer & 99 in the shade.

It's been awhile since I've been here...

I was just wondering if Jon had the idea for Joey from the movie Row Your Boat. Think about it, Jon's character picked locks but robbed no-one, he just wanted to get back on his feet and ment do no harm. And there is some other similarities between the song and the film...
It's just a crazy tought... Your toughts??

BTW sorry about that I have so stupid screen name, I got it when Everyday came out.
