don't feed the trolls....
David Lee Roth's the greatest motherfucker who ever lived!

Ok, getting up to speed here. So VHND says everything is fine. Cool. A douche bag gets on here an claims Dave is a steroid using coke head. Right. Have I missed anything esle?
P.s. Heard "Stay Frosty" on our shitty rock station yesterday. Took that as a good sign.
" You ever notice when I scream I sound like Mr. Bill on acid" DLR
good news (if you can call it news), but not unexpected.
I still think this was related to the blowers - if they need to keep them off, they're better off not playing southern dates in the middle of the summer.
the unanswered question is: why do they need to keep them off? unfortunately, we're not going to get an answer to that one.
Nomeat knows fuck all about Rock n' Roll. Dave is not the first and won't be the last to freak on someone throwing shit onstage.
BEST rant I ever saw was when someone threw a frisbee on stage at a Nugent concert.
Can't remember who it was, but some band recently stopped a show because of fighting in the audience.
As for his claim that he is a student of all things DLR...and then bringing up not remembering lyrics??? Fuck, if Dave got through an entire show without forgetting the lines I'd be calling a fucking doctor!!!

glad to know everythings cool with the band, I tell you they looked thrilled with each other In Tulsa a couple weeks ago, heck, even Dave and Alex were interacting, smiling at each other, when has that ever happened?? !!!!
another good sign.....

Stay Frosty!
THE DAY IS DONZO LET'S HAVE SOME FUNZO!!
It would make sense to take a break if the tour is adding a lot of dates. But that also shows some seriously weak prior planning...
To address something earlier in this thread, Light Up The Sky was on the official setlist for Reading 3/26 and was scrapped at the last minute by Dave and replaced with GGB. The guy who I know is close to the band (which I've discussed in the "Your Worst Nightmare" thread) told me this. Since I talked to him before the show, I also knew ahead of time that Jamie's Cryin' and Blood and Fire were going to be played that night (the first of four shows with those songs).
I do believe however that was the closest we got to hearing it played. Let's hope after the break, Wolf will push hard for setlist changes and LUTS will be a part of it.
True, although tonight would be a good time to do some new tunes and show asswipes, like Hammy Sagar, they are not ready to dial it in quite yet. This will be a kickass show tonight guaranteed. I bet they sold 2,000 more tickets tonight alone out of fear that this may have come crashing down.
But the train keeps on rollin.............................
Hey psycho, please get out of my Van Halen T-shirt before you jinx the band and they break up.
Man - what the hell did I miss? I was a little happy last night, and on this thread off and on throughout most of the night - and I STILL missed all the fireworks. Gotta go back several pages and see where the troll made his grand entrance...
My karma just ran over your dogma.
American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
The band has established the trend of letting the fan sites do all the "heavy lifting" this go round...
Although one has to wonder why a simply stated official announcement and posting on their web site... an act of all of a few minutes worth of effort... is such a challenge for these mature adults and business people..?
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
in short the troll said Dave was sick..coked up..and not athletic...and that he was the cause of the postponed shows...then went on to say Dave has skinny legs or the wrong clothes...it was pretty comical...but he was a DLR student.. so it has to be true
The bottom line is whenever you have something like this happen it's an open invitation for some "know all see all prophet or phony insider"
to stink up the place and insult peoples' intelligence and prove that daddy didn't pay enough attention to them and now it's the fans responsibility to take up the slack. Then they get their ass handed to them and they vanish only to show up later the next time the band does something different than what was on the program. lather rinse repeat
then andrew picks up on it and runs it like an official story. lol or he used to. Might have picked up on the pattern since, but who knows...
What else more could be added to this thread...some funny shit.

Hate to break it to you Muscles Marinara, but much like most female strippers are lesbians, most bodybuilders have gay tendencies. Not that there's anything wrong with that.....You seem like you have plenty to say which is fine, but I can almost guarantee your one of those tools I always see in the gym spending their whole day there chatting with their beefcake buddies how "sick their pecks look" or...."I would love to have your lats". If you hurry champ, you may be able to catch the Chickenfoot show at your local Park and Ride.....I'm sure your quite familiar with park and Rides....again, not that there's anything wrong with that. I'll keep an eye out for you on ESPN's strongest man competition.
I don't have any info as to the future of the band. But LUTS was really, really close to being played for real at Reading on 3/26/12. It was on the official setlist for the show. Those were the guy's words when I spoke to him a half hour before VH took the stage that night.
I doubt we'll get any different songs played before the end of June. I hope that VHND is correct and that the band does plan to keep the show evolving for the next phase of the tour. I'd love to hear LUTS, As Is, HBSD, Drop Dead Legs and Secrets (recall that Secrets was on that list of songs from the rehearsals that the guy took stealth video and recently posted to YouTube).
hopefully at some point they break out LUTS...wolfie...make it happen !
Would love to see As IS, HBSD, Light Up The Sky, Bullethead, In A Simple Rhyme,Fools, D.O.A...... so many tunes to choose from......would love to see them go back to the old practice of leaving the stage and coming back for the encore playing that little diddy at the end of WACF and then launching into something more kick ass then Jump.
nobody won't cry if they decided to not play the covers You really Got me, Ice cream and pretty woman! i hope a day they'll play stay frosty ... but they have so many untouchable songs in their set list !

I want a SGMAD jam. A cool cvh story before ICM and a verse or two of Stay Frosty added in. I want something unexpected to happen. I think it's cool that they do a little swapping of songs, but still, these shows have been cookie cutter shows. I want a South America 1983 VH show. But, what's happening in the shows now is still very good. Just a wish list. Drop Dead Legs, LUTS, As Is, and Take Your Whiskey Home would be killer.
Hell yes...add a second encore with a different deep cut each night. Make each show special.
Like
ATBL
Jump
(encore break)
Deep cut
Panama (flag confetti and shit) Panama was a fairly big hit, has a little improvising in the middle sometimes, and ends the show on a better note than Jump.
I agree. I don't get the setlist this time out. Its to safe ! I fucking love VHII. It's my favorite album from them. But a little mellow to play all night. What happened to Mean Street & Craddle Will Rock ? The heavy songs for the night are Chinatown, Panama & Teacher ! Stilll love that they mixed it up but..... I guess Girl Gone Bad & Romeo are heavy. When they play them.
Iiiihhhahahhhhhhh am so in love with yooooooo,.. what ever you want to do,, is alrigggght with miheeeee..
letme' be the one you,.. come runn'n toooohhhoooo.. cause youuuuuuoo make me feel so brand newwwwww..
They should do this tune and tunes like it,.. chill my brothers..one show a week 2 maybe on some weeks maximize the quality ...
yeah no no no like that!
All I gotta say about this thread...
2015 once smoke 2 smoke ...poke
clara the tiny giraffe make fur curve
I'm jumping on the new set list bandwagon....
