Work four months and get two years of pay? You tell me who the stupid one is.

Why would he want to go to satellite now? He did what he wanted, and he'll get his money. End of story.

And fuck that canned, xerox copy, "opie and andy" shit.


btw - I just listened to Vai's latest cd, and it was some real shit... so this would be a good time for everybody to get back together.

CBS:

Yea bro,its all about money aint it.When he signs his sirius one hour show where he can "be dave" you will be happy,or paying right bitch?

[Jack68]

Let me take this opportunity to remind you that nobody gives a shit what you think.

He's not going to "sirius" - there's no reason for him to.

The official pronouncement from AP/The Boston Herald...


It’s official: David Lee Roth exits radio
By Associated Press
Friday, April 21, 2006 - Updated: 01:42 PM EST

NEW YORK - Well, that didn’t take long.

Rocker-turned-radio host David Lee Roth, who accepted the no-win task of replacing ratings king Howard Stern in January, was bounced from the airwaves Friday after barely three months on the air in New York, Philadelphia, Boston and four other markets.

“I was booted, tossed, and it’s going to cost somebody,” Roth said on his last show, intimating that his lawyers would go after CBS Radio for the full compensation due from his reported $4 million contract. The timing of the move was interesting: It arrived just days before the Roth show’s first Arbitron numbers.

CBS Radio spokeswoman Shavonne Harding said the company would have an announcement soon on its plans. She declined any other comment, and would not say who will replace the former Van Halen frontman on Monday’s morning drive time shift.

Roth said he was only told about the syndicated show’s demise while riding in a car to the WFNY-FM studios in Manhattan.

His replacements, in a hiring fraught with bizarre subplots, will be shock jocks Greg “Opie” Hughes and Anthony Cumia - currently available only to the 6.5 million listeners on XM satellite radio.

“Apparently we can talk about it now. So much for keeping a lid on this,” the pair said Friday on their show’s Web site. “The Opie and Anthony Show will be replacing David Lee Roth in several markets on CBS Radio Free-FM stations.”
Opie and Anthony’s syndicated show was yanked from terrestrial radio in August 2002 after airing a live account of listeners having sex in St. Patrick’s Cathedral. The company that silenced the duo was the same one that just hired them back, CBS Radio.
It also puts the pair in the slot long dominated by Stern, who feuded with Opie and Anthony for years before leaving for Sirius Satellite Radio. And it reverses the trend of satellite looting traditional radio for talent. Instead, CBS Radio is reaching out to satellite radio for syndicated programming.
“What they’re doing is switching to a proven act,” said Tom Taylor, editor of the trade publication Inside Radio. “This is a group with a pedigree. I would think the stations involved are very happy about this.”
There is no word on when the Opie and Anthony show will debut on CBS Radio. The Associated Press was told the pair will do three hours on both XM and CBS, and two additional hours exclusively for the satellite audience.
In addition to New York, Boston and Philadelphia, Opie and Anthony will reportedly air in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, West Palm Beach, Fla., and Dallas.
Further proof of how strange the O&A move was: Bill Donohue of the Catholic League, who demanded the pair’s dismissal after the St. Patrick’s scandal, issued a statement wishing the pair well.
“(They’ve) made it clear they regretted the St. Patrick’s stunt,” said Donohue, who appeared as a guest on the pair’s XM show. “In short, the Catholic League hopes Opie and Anthony have a great run on CBS Radio.”

Seems like CBS just wanted Roth's name, but not his personality/style.

Gotta be frank: Have no use for talk-radio morning shows anyway...but at least Dave tried to inject his sensibility into it.

Least Roth didn't play the punk in some drawn-out attempt to kiss CBS ass and comply with their reformatting, and his show wasn't just a ham-handed Stern wannabe, rife with Jerky Boys style crank-calls (got some idjit down here named MJ who does that shit, and it's really fucking tiresome).

[Matt White]

DAVE is going to satelite...BANK ON 'DAT....

I'll be listening.....

[rustoffa]

Anyone see the FOX Report bit on it earlier? Fair and Balanced? Seemed like they kinda spun it in Dave's favor to me.

Whateverthefuck.

I'm sure the payoff Dave gets will ease the pain a bit. If there is any. (pain)

The scathing Rothism's regarding this fiasco will be some LOL shit......once it's settled.

[Matt White]

You KNOW DAVE is gonna hold the fire to those corporate sychophants.........

[Mr. Vengeance]

Dave's on record as saying he'd be willing to do a show on Sirius if he was offered the chance. I'd listen. No restrictions on what he can do and say....It would likely be a lot less air time which leaves him time to record and tour.

Soon all will pay for radio once they realize that what they don't pay for sucks shit. Same way they now pay for cable.

There's an extension of the syndicated "Garage" show Silvio does on Sirius. He "produces" it, and fucking Andrew Loog Oldham DJ's on it!

A different take on this would be what Dave should have done to begin with. Spinning records, guest shit-talkers....etc.

"I'd like to welcome my next guest....The ghost of Louis Prima!!!"

[FORD]

Andrew Loog Oldham's still alive?? :confused:

[BethAn]

I am sick over David's firing. I loved the show. I am so bored with all other am radio and I will miss his unique humor and wit.

It's all weird bro. That's radio for ya. On a side note?

Who the fuck is callin' Dave in the limo @ 5 AM to let him know he's been released? It damn sure wasn't Moonbeam or whateverthefuck his name is.

Probably some nasaly bitch from Asgetistan.

[Hardrock69]

Once again, FUCK CBS.

However, we must look at this in a positive light.

1. Dave gets paid or sues CBS. You KNOW Dave is no fool when it comes to signing contracts with people.

CBS is fucked. Say bye-bye to 4 million smackers ya corporate cocksuckers.

2. Dave can do whatever. Go to satellite. Go to TV.

GO BACK ON TOUR!!!!

I would think this would give him some inspiration to create some really mean and pissed off sounding music.

Not only is CBS trying to fuck Dave, they already were trying to fuck the "little people" in his show, like BY and Animal.

Those goddamnable fucking suits need to go to Hell and get fucked in the ass by the Demon Spirit Of Corporate Whores.....whoever that may be.

[DavidLeeNatra]

Time rools on
n' that's as it should be
Here and gone
Seems to move so quickly

let's see what's next...but now I'm even more glad that I made it on his show...

[Mr. Vengeance]

Sirius is made for Dave. He can do a weekly show, and be free to say whatever the hell is on his mind. And he can use the rest of his time to make music. Hell, he can even pretape his shows the way Dee Snider does from time to time.

[Matt White]

DAVE will come out of this smelling like a rose...YANKEE that is...

While CBS shows WHY Stern left in the first place...They're CUNTS

[loveuhowie]

Dave had a 2 year contract right? Would that not be 8 mil?

because they are not people who really get off on the industry...the suits are all lawyers and bean counters now. that's where things get fucked up.

[4rchang3l]

many might think that i am g31. but as a long time fan of VanRoth and someone who has always enjoyed Dave's interviews, I will miss his unique banter.
I can't help but remember a particular interview with Dave from back in the day.
Interviewer: "Dave, what do you think of todays music?"
Dave: " Well, i see it at an incestuous affair. You can actually hear the influence from song to song! oh, they really loved Led Zep on that one! and they really loved Aerosmith on that one! and like most things that are incestuous, we all know that the only thing that incest leads to is retarded children."
Roth On!-j
