BLABBERMOUTH says VAN HAGAYR remasters are on the way

[John Holmes]

I quote the whole article from Blabbermouth :

VAN HAGAR : 'Live Without A Net' To Be Released On DVD - May 10, 2004

According to MelodicRock.com, VAN HALEN's classic live video, "Live Without A Net", is finally coming to DVD. The concert was filmed in New Haven, USA in 1986 during the band's first tour with then-new vocalist Sammy Hagar. The video remains a favorite amongst fans and to this day is a spectacular watch. The DVD will be released in Japan on July 2, with a worldwide release expected at a later date.

In other news, Sammy Hagar-era VAN HALEN remasters are in the works and are expected to arrive in the not-too-distant future — possibly before the end of this year.

Spammy remasters ???

Since when can you polish a turd ???

No way.

Van Hagar recordings were born as shit, have always been shit and shit will always be, no matter how many time you "remaster" them - or actually defecate them

I hope they used CoolEdit Pro, and made the cybals sound all jangly like trashcan lids recorded on a Sony minidisc like one of Paul Belfi's many self-recorded Van Hagar audience recordings...

[Lou]

They're gonna release Van Hagar shit on DVD before they release Van HALEN Oakland 1981. Unbelieveable.

[FORD]

And I'll bet Ou812 will still sound like it was recorded at the bottom of a pot of molten Velveeta.

[FIRELITE]

Can't believe they would want to reissue that on DVD. They ought to bury it and hope nobody remembers it. It was an embarrassment. Even Ed said it was "very very average". I saw them on that tour and I lost interest. When you saw them before Sammy you couldn't wait to see them again. With Sammy, it was like, where's the beef?

[Lou]

Where's the beef? Sammy ate it

Yeah I know that was a really cheap comeback.

[BlimpyCHIMP™]

ANY VAN HALEN DVD BEATS AN EMINIUM OR ICED T RAP DVD

[cwsmith17]

Why would they "remaster" Hagar?

[Lou]

How about that! Even a sheep knows this is ridiculous.

Actually I know what you meant by that. What you meant is that the Van Hagar catalogue just sounds so great it doesn't need to be remastered. What you didn't mean is it's stupid to remaster Hagar because it's akin to wasting time polishing a turd.

[DavidLeeNatra]

No, actually I'd prefer Eminem or Ice T than Van Hagar.

And no, I don't like either at all....tells you how much Hagar sucks....

i saw that tour in montreal and that piece of spammy held up a sign saying (dave who)since then i hated van hagar, fuck them i hope they
rot in hell. dave is van halen

[BlimpyCHIMP™]

MAYBE TYHEYR DOING THIS SO SAMMY HAGAR CANN RETIRE AND IT SHOULD SELL AT LEAST A FEW THOUSAND COPIES

YOU DONT NEED THAT MUCH MONEY ON MEXICO

[Terry]

About as much demand for Van Hagar reissues as there was for Van Hagar getting back together in the first place.

[FIRELITE]

good one

[smaz]

Somebody somewhere has a lot of money to waste.

[BrownSound1]

I agree with you guys, but here's what I'm trying to figure out. Most of the Hagar stuff was recorded on digital equipment. I know 5150 was done on an analog system, so why remaster shit that theoretically shouldn't need remastering.

Now the first six albums, they were old enough to need remastering, just like any old classic set of albums. I understand that, just like I understand remastering Beatles, Stones, Zep, or anyone who was recorded on the old stuff. I just don't see the point of remastering an album like Balance that isn't even 10 years old.

Cause spammy thinks they are sitting on a goldmine if they remain un-remaster. When in actually they are sitting on a guano(bat shit) mine!

It will intersting to see if the sisters put extra songs on these cds.

Like they should have done on the Roth remasters.

I fucking hope they don't, anymore Hager in this world would be just too much to bear.

The least they could have done is put the three live Oakland tracks on FAIR WARNING. Pricks.

If there's a website with a track record worse than MelodiCrock.com, it's Blabbermouth.net. So the fact that Andrew found this there, and then posted it on his site is twice as funny.

Ideally, the time to release the Van Hagar remasters would have been when they were touring. But they couldn't do that, because they had the dumbassed "best of" disc with the three godawful "new" Spam songs to sell (which it didn't)

And because the Van Hagar reunion proved to be both a commercial and creative failure, I doubt they'll even bother reheating the Velveeta at this point.
