    I totally get the blower rant. I've had to request blowers get turned down at the theatre, although not as eloquently as Dave does

    5 mins with one of those damn things blowing at me and my throat and nose are immediately mucous filled. Nothing worse than trying to deliver a crucial line and sounding like there are 20 frogs mating in your throat!

    He's got valid points...

    But don't ya think after about 27 similar-type rants that SOMEONE in the VH camp could be a little proactive and coordinate ahead of time with the venues to come?

    Dave said they requested it before the show... Someone isn't following direction or the blowers are on auto. Either way, not cool. Turn that shit off!

    Nobody finds it the least bit odd that it has happened on nearly every show just like the squirting water bullshit ??

    Gonna agree with Elvis on this one
    Here we have Diamond Dave
    The TOASTMASTER GENERAL
    The man who says some of the craziest shit going
    writes some of the greatest lyrics ever and yet he barks about the same
    crap at every show
    His shtick is getting old and boring
    One would think that after a 9 day break he would
    at least grace us with something new
    fuck I'd be glad if he brought something back from the glory days
    with a new twist

    Sounds like someone needs their fucking dressing rooms Van Halenized. Great show. Seeing them 3 more times so if anything was missed, I will catch it the next time. The highlight was HAIT, and the Dance thing b4 DTNA. Truly Dave.

    So cool to rock it out in Florida with my peeps. Next stop ORLANDO! See you there.

    It's not schtick ---- Dave never stopped a song mid-way to say "I'm gonna fuck your girlfriend, pal" ---- he's too classy for that

    Start using your brain, dumbo ---- watch any of the old videos and Dave never halted a song halfway through to say "Stop squirtin' water at me or I'll fuck your girlfriend". He only did it between songs. Rest of the band would've got pissed if he consistently stopped songs to brag about fuckin' a dude's chick.

    These blower rants are the REAL DEAL ---- why cant these venue dickholes follow simple directions?

    What if between the venue and his tour bus there is a light breeze, will Dave need to cancel a few shows?

    On certain songs on the tour Dave has struggled with some of the vocals ... Some of it due to singing in a higher register and some of it sounds like he could have been a bit horse/have a sore throat. Am guessing the same as everyone else here but maybe Dave is conscious of this and is pissed at the air con in venues .... It could be a davism only time will tell.

    I went to the doctors with a sore throat and he said, "have you been feeling a little hoarse?"

    I said, "I wanked an elephant off the other day"

    He said, "are you taking the piss?"

    I said, "Do you think I'm fucking sick or something."

    I was just on the phone to Sarah Jessica Parker. I think she had a sore throat though, as she was a little hoarse.

    A recent spate of laryngitis and sore throats have finally been traced.

    They came from nearby hoarse farm.

    Do you know four men with sore throats? If so, you may be held witness to the end of the world.

    It begins with the four hoarse men of the Apocalypse.

    Just been at the Grand National with a mate - shouting and screaming our support from the stands.

    After, he asked: "Isn't your voice a little hoarse?"

    "Neigh" I replied.

    A lot of singers don't like AC blowing on them while they're working, I totally get that. Hell, I worked for a singer that specified in the contract rider that his onstage water bottles had to be kept at room temperature, because drinking anything ice cold while singing was difficult for him. I don't think it's schtick on Dave's part.

    Actually dude....when I buy bottled water at a 7-11 or something, I look for it room temp or ask for it from the back. When I'm really thirsty I want to chug it. Can't do that when it is chilled. Room temp quenches better & you can drink it faster.

    To those who criticise the looks of Sarah Jessica Parker I say 'neigh' - if it would behoove you to have some common courtesy you should stop making such unbridled remarks. It's unfair to saddle her with this level of ugliness.

    Someone needs to take the reigns and say "wooooah" this is going too far. Why do we need to trot out these same cracks every time her name comes up?

    If she was coming to my town, I'd definitely pony up the cash to see her.

    And remember guys, those blowers aren't blowing fresh air onto Dave & the guys. It's recycled air from the 12,000 coughing, sneezing, sniffling fans. I swear, if I spend much time at a casino I catch a cold after due to everyones germs floating around. That's why you always see people wearing the blue surgical masks. Having it concentrated & blown right in your face for 2 hours is bound to make you sick.
