This might be the best trolling ever.
If looking for the reason happened and the choice is between stupid and conspiracy, the answer is usually stupid.
There is absolutely nothing for Ed to gain or benefit from by parting ways with Dave, AGAIN. And I believe Ed's aware of that.
How do you spell pretentious? S-A-M-M-Y H-A-G-A-R
Why didn't this make the live cd? LOL
I think it is because that the lead singer looks too Ghey. After all...Kristy inspires us all with her commitment to madness :

Can't Control your Future. Can't Control your Friends. The women start to hike their skirts up. I didn't have a clue. That is when I kinda learned how to smile a lot. One Two Three Fouir fun ter thehr fuur.
I've just listened to both RWTD and Panama again. In fact there's nothing new as far as Dave's singing, nothing worse than what he did in 2012.
Must be the better sound quality that makes it easier to spot, though it was already obvious in the boots too.
I'm kind of getting used to it. Even, the only thing that really bugged me was Dave's 800th "... Here she comes full "top" and top down..."
The mix (but is it the definitive mix?) sure sounds questionable, but who knows how it will on CD? Can it really sound like shit, be it not the live stuff you'd expect from them, could they have become deaf (and dumb) enough to release a crappy record?... I don't believe so, and the more I think about it now, the more I feel like saying "wait and see" rather than prematurely ejaculate bile.

Me...
The shit we heard is the same shit that's gonna be on the disc...
It's finished...
Swear to God, this is as listenable as the Tokyo show they are about to release..
It's no worse...
That's for sure...
ED does seem to be enjoying himself, anyway..
That's the last time he smiled...
I wont blame Ed for wanting to be a recluse..but when you are thrust into a spotlight, you either embrace it or pull an Izzy Stradlin..
I am pissed that he decides to release old shit yet again...ADKOT was awesome..WTF??!! Record a new studio disc or fuck off..
That's fucking right...
I don't need anymore old repackaged shit...
...was off for about a week...spent 10 minutes here...couldn't find something interesting...see ya next week...

We'll be here unless Sesh bans everyone...
This should have been on the live album too lol

I was on Amazon.ca and they want $115 for the 4 disc vinyl set. Ouch. Can't do it. Just can't do it.
I wouldn't give fifty bucks like I did for my ADKOT vinyl...
In fact, I wouldn't even pay 25 cents for that vinyl...
I'd rather pretend it never happened...
Besides, my own compilation of live shows blows this "album" away...
I bet Cato has a good live compilation disc that blows this shit away by far...
With real artwork and everything...
Cato's is better by far!
E- Jesus . Playing both sides because he didnt understand the argument in the first place
Yeah, and every Van Halen worshipping Judo-Jap in Japan has one by now...
Good luck selling the new "album" in Fukushimaville...:
Speaking of Fookashima...
Look what it did to this poor gal...
You know, I had those live recordings downloaded from i-tunes and had them on replay and after a while you really do not see what is so bad about them. After hearing Dave yelp through 2012 and 2013, one gets used to them... then again, it may be like a bad smell which one does not notice after awhile lol
The Classic Metal Show review of Panama & RTWD:
These guys crucify this release, same as every other public outlet is doing to it.
Unless Ed and the boys aren't listening, or they have ulterior motives, I can't believe they will go through with the release of this thing.
The review has a point but it is a hatchet job with just a smear job intent when they attempt to even imply that when Dave is speaking Japanese he is just mumbling something incoherent
Here's me trying to make some sense of the world's most puzzling/frustrating band (welcome to VH fandom baby!!). Based on the rumors we're hearing about shows this summer, I'm guessing they wanted some product to tour behind as the reunion angle from 07-08 wasn't going to cut it and touring in support of ADKOT has run its course. There is some precedence here from the Samburglar era when they released the "live" album between FUCK and Balance and toured in support of it. The problem with that is that it's 2015, not 1993. The other problem is that "new" release aside, this really is just an extension of the the ADKOT tour and unless they're willing to update the stage show, set list and Dave gets in better form vocally, there will be a lot of "been there, done that" feelings for this series of shows. Maybe you can get away with this in '93, but they're pushing it in 2015.
Why the 2013 Tokyo show? I think 1993 once again offers insight. The show from the 1993 release was from their previous tour, i.e., a more recent show, so i think they went that route again. Why not a show from 2012? If I had to guess, they either didn't professionally record any of those shows, or if they did, perhaps the show(s) they recorded would've required extensive vocal enhancements given Dave's vocal struggles on that tour.
I've had my share of sport with this release, but I honestly thought Dave's vocals were ok for this show, based on what I saw/heard on the Tubes. I mentioned it elsewhere, but the larger issue is that this release is what I called "the lazy middle ground". They wanted to tour this summer but wanted to tour in support of something instead of just another "oldies/hits" tour (even though that's basically what they're doing anyway), so they release this live album. Here's an idea- PUT OUT A NEW FUCKING ALBUM, THEN YOU'LL HAVE A LEGITIMATE REASON TO TOUR!!!
Believe it...
The one that's being released requires extensive vocal enhancements, so there goes that guess...
You need new ears...
Read the Youtube comments next time...
Dave mumbles incoherently when he speaks English...
Just watch the Dave Show...
I haven't read any of the Youtube comments. Are they getting crucified there too?You need new ears...
Read the Youtube comments next time...
But even you would have to admit that some (most?) of those 2012 shows would require more vocal fixes than the 2013 shows, so by that and VH's standard, the 2013 show was good enough, whereas the 2012 shows would've required much more work to patch the vocals. Now, you can argue that their standards for 2013 shows are even too low, but that's a separate argument!
Yes, just like they have been since the 2012 show itself...
No I would not, The new Orleans show is light years better...
And the best way for these guys to make a live album is to record every show and pick the best material, like iron Maiden did...
You mean anonymous assholes on YouTube and their opinions should govern my decision making/thought processes?You need new ears...
Read the Youtube comments next time...
I have read a lot of those comments and a lot of them either point out specific instances where Dave sounds bad and largely dismiss the performances as a whole, or they do the opposite and make sweeping generalizations - "Dave sucks!!!"- and leave it at that. I readily admit that Dave has patchy moments in that show, but as a whole he sounds decent. I also understand that opinions vary, so my "decent" is somebody else's "awful". To each his own, right?
That would require an ounce of effort.
I'm surprised their laziness will even allow them to go on tour this summer. I can't even begin to imagine how little effort they'll put into a live show, after seeing their lack of effort with this bullshit release.
Just listened to Panama again. Holy shit it sucks! At this point they need to just pipe in Dave's vocals from any other tour prior to 2005. Or just have Ralph back stage singing the shit while Dave lip syncs.
American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
