Good news!! Thanks Mr Walker!! Made my day...

Even better is Alice being on the bill... this should help getting Ed back to his golf game between shows!!

My first thought was that September is only four months away, but then I realized that in '07 they had their press conference on Aug. 13th, with the first show in Charlotte on Sept. 27th, so that's a lifetime in VH-land....

I guess it also makes sense that they'd work out the bugs on the tour overseas before hitting the arenas again.....

Kinda pisses me off, it it holds true, that they aren't hitting ampitheaters again for a summer tour....

[VAiN]

Holy shit!! If this is true, and I feel like it is, that means we'll most likely get some pro-shot HD footage of the band!! I guess this means I need to clear some time in November for a VH show in the states?

Holy shit!! If this is true, and I feel like it is, that means we'll most likely get some pro-shot HD footage of the band!!

Meaning Australia doesn't have the copyright laws that the U.S. does ?

Good news for our many Roth Army pals down under!

Now Wolfgang can get a science education about how water flows down sinks and toilets the opposite way it does in the U.S.

But seriously....early Fall tour dates in Australia means we'll hear some new fucking music when??

July, anybody????

[fryingdutchman]

Sheesh....

The lineup really falls off after Alice....

[ashstralia]

yeah right.... we've also heard rumours of ratm and blink at this show... show me the cd vh, show me the new songs i'll be singing along to. your time begins...... NOW.

In my experience, every country not in north america films their big shows and broadcasts them on TV.... Do you get a channel called 'Palladia'? I'd say just about everything on it is from Europe/AUS/SA... I don't see why there wouldn't be a wrap-up show to this fest, just like there is with every other fest that they broadcast....

Great News! Thanks, Mr. Walker!

[Mama's Fool]

Can't wait to hear some new tunes!

[WACF]

Luckily Machine Head is not the same day.

Saw them open for Megadeth and Slayer....they destroy the place...unreal live band.

[Full Bug]

Very cool news....Now if we could just get the new music....

[Hardrock69]

And so it begins. And no fucking word at all from Howdy Doody Mountain.

Alice Cooper is here in Gnashville right now. Rehearsing, but for what I do not know. Friend of mine has been present at his rehearsals.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

i hope panamark and ash have room for all of us.....
