    Um, I have it on pretty good authority Dave's no longer bound by that contract as of the last Hollywood Bowl show. But as they say "I ain't one to gossip so you didn't hear nuthin' from me..."

    Yeah, Dave's outta the band, I'd bet 500 bucks of Jay's money on it.

    Well this sucks. I was hoping to see and hear Ralph rip through the whole damn CD. I don't know if Dave coulda pulled it off but for all I know he really warmed up for the show. I will say this - I hope he's finally out of that circle jerk of a band called VH and can get back to doing, well, something.

    Well now. That would lend some credibility to the report of the DLR/John 5 project being released.

    One other thing, I'm sure it wasn't lost on Dave that over 2000 people showed up for the gig. If I was him I'd be thinking "Bozdy biddly bop - this band could put me back on top!" I'm sure it won't happen, but damn I'd pay 150 bucks to go see that show. AND buy an overpriced shirt.

    They need to put together another show in a 5,000 seater, like two Saturday's from now.

    Seriously. Who fucking cares if Dave is in or out of Van Halen anymore. I'm a Roth fan, as long as he's doing what he does best, I'm in.

    Except that Vai and Sheehan are doing their own things, and are successful. Not sure what Bissonette is doing, and Tuggle ain't gonna quit the Fleetwood Mac gig. Besides, none of you want him there anyways!

    Weirdest thing about this is some people don't buy two when they go to the bar anyway. Wow bit of a shocker to be honest

    Nah, I wasn't talking a full on reunion 50 city tour starting next week. Those guys could put together a string of shows next year, if not a full blown tour. But that's not even important - what I want to see is Dave out performing without Sir Jackoff and his two twins. Jesus Christ I hate Eddie so much I hope he breaks a string and it pops him smack in the eyeball. Twice.

    And dude - I dig the keyboards. I'm a damn Winger homo - keyboards are the least gay thing about that lol

    Wow, what a drag, to hear 'Big Trouble' and a few others played again would have been bliss.....Never guessed Dave would have shown up too, I really hope they can do this show somewhere else, soon.....
    Glad I still have my 85 Smile show that they played in Toronto on CD.....

    COULD have been coincidental that John5 played tonight too... or it was all part of the plan... we'll never know.

    One of those camps is releasing a DVD soon. He'll wait for it to tank before sending signals toward Howdy Doody Mountain...

    Personally I can't wait. Ed's only choices are:

    A. Stay home and be bored shitless because he can't drank no beers

    C. Stay home and have some fun drankin beers

    7. Call Slappy and hit the road and drank some beers without his kid telling him he can't have any

    My vote is for option 7

    ‘Eat ‘Em and Smile’ Reunion Show – With David Lee Roth? – Cancelled Due to Overcrowding

    Did a fire code violation just keep a whole lot of Los Angeles fans from witnessing a full-blown reunion of David Lee Roth‘s Eat ‘Em and Smile band, complete with an appearance from Diamond Dave himself? It sure seems possible.

    It had been previously announced that three-fourths of the group – guitarist Steve Vai, bassist Billy Sheehan and drummer Gregg Bissonette – were scheduled to play last night (Nov. 25) at Lucky Strike Live Hollywood / Highland in Los Angeles, with Steel Panther’s Ralph Saenz on lead vocals. The show was part of former Quiet Riot bassist Chuck Wright’s Ultimate Jam Night series, and was intended to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Roth’s (awesome) first solo album.

    Only problem is, apparently entirely too many people thought this would be the perfect way to spend the night before Thanksgiving. As you can tell by reading Sheehan’s Facebook posts, the line outside the venue quickly grew too long to control, with the situation descending into “utter chaos.” Eventually, the Fire Marshall was forced to shut down the show before the band ever got the chance to take the stage.

    The worst part? Check out this post, where Sheehan laments the cancellation before revealing, “And did we ever have a surprise for you!”

    And look, here’s video of David Lee Roth leaving the venue, telling fans, “It looks like we were too popular.” That’s “we,” not “they.” Is it possible he was going to join his former bandmates for some portion of the show?

    While we’re innocently speculating… how about a reunion album and a full world tour? At the very least, can we try this again in a bigger venue?

    DAVID LEE ROTH's Reunion With His 'Eat 'Em And Smile' Band Canceled At Last Minute By Fire Marshal

    The reunion of VAN HALEN singer David Lee Roth and the band for his debut solo album, "Eat 'Em And Smile", was canceled at the last minute last night (Wednesday, November 25) by the fire marshal at the Lucky Strike Live in Hollywood. The show would have marked the first time in 30 years that Roth joined guitar hero Steve Vai, bass legend Billy Sheehan (THE WINERY DOGS, MR. BIG), drummer Greg Bissonette (RINGO STARR & HIS ALL-STARR BAND), and keyboardist Brett Tuggle to perform some of the hits from the classic LP. Also scheduled to join the band on stage was STEEL PANTHER vocalist Ralph Saenz (a.k.a. Michael Starr).

    Video footage of a disappointed Roth leaving the venue after the cancelation can be seen below (courtesy of California Rock News). The singer, whose appearance last night was not officially announced prior to the gig, can be heard telling the bystanders: "I apologize about this evening. It looks like we were too popular." He added that he and his "Eat 'Em And Smile" bandmates would try to find another venue to stage the reunion. "Should we go to the Hollywood Palladium, maybe?" he can be heard asking the fans.

    Sheehan later wrote on his Facebook page: "Well well well. The fire department shut down the whole show before we got on stage. And did we ever have a surprise for you! Such is life." He added: "Place was so crowded and the line continued down to Hollywood Blvd all night. Just too many people."

    Vai explained to the Examiner.com that he didn't expect the band to come together when they first hooked up over thirty years ago. He said: "Dave got the best musicians he could, who he thought was the best. And I thought it was a hell of a band… It was one of my favorite times in my whole musical career, because we were rock stars, you know? And touring with somebody like Dave, you can't even imagine what it was like. It was just glorious, man. And I knew it was fleeting, and I knew it was something that I wasn't going to be doing my whole life, because my brand of music in my own head is very different."

    "Eat 'Em And Smile" was the first of two Roth albums to feature the duo of Vai and Sheehan on guitar and bass. Throughout the LP, the two would often sync complicated bass lines together with the lead guitar parts, as on tracks such as "Shyboy" and "Elephant Gun".

    Now in its 44th week, Ultimate Jam Night is a free weekly show held each Wednesday at Lucky Strike Live, located at the Hollywood/Highland center. Founded by Chuck Wright of QUIET RIOT, the show features up to 60 world-class musicians rotating in and out of various musical numbers.

    IF they put together another show in a larger venue, this one getting pulled was the best thing that could have happened. If I was Dave I'd be on the phone with the other guys, nail down a date for the next couple weeks, schedule a venue and then hit the radio shows and start hyping the living shit out of it. Just short interviews, stick to hyping the show and answer one or two VH questions then shut that noise down and circle back around to the reunion show. If he did that it would almost guarantee an even bigger turnout.

    Come on, Dave. Give us a break...

    I'm not one to say "I told you so"...

    I have said it before, I'll say it again, for those that are still delusional.

    Ticket sales for this past tour were pathetic. Yes, a few of the major cities sold ok, but this tour was heavily papered. That's a fact. I was also told well before the tour was over, that Ed could not wait for the tour to end. If you can't figure out why, you need your fucking head examined.

    I have not heard anything about Clichegar getting back into VH, but I believe that will be the next step for them. I have no idea how they'll pull it off in regards to Mike. Will Clichegar sell out his buddy? Or will Mike come back too, and will Wolf play keyboards? Seems odd to me that the same day Clichegar plays "Right Now" at some football game, that Wolf tweets himself out, playing the same song. Did you, I, or anybody else expect Wolf to completely ignore that era of his Dad's work? Especially after making a ton of money off the Roth era stuff? Come on. The Roth era tours are played out. Now it's time for Wolf to reach into Van Hagar fans pockets. I don't blame him. He knows they'll pay for at least one or two tours, just like we did the Roth tours. Easy money.

    As for Dave. I wouldn't mind seeing a tour of clubs with the EEAS band. They couldn't sell out large venues for a whole tour, but I bet they'd kick ass on a tour of bigger clubs or theater type venues. Of course, that would be even more nostalgia, and I'd just as soon have Dave release the John 5 disc. I really think at this point, the John 5 disc is the most likely. As most of you know from my other thread, I've spoken directly to John 5 about this disc, twice. First in 2013, then earlier this year. Both times he told me the disc couldn't be released because Dave was in Van Halen. Well, it seems that just might not be the case anymore. I sure hope this disc sees the light of day, soon.

    You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that show was heavily papered.

    I was accused of making up the term "papered" over at the Links. Sorry, but when every show there are thousands of last minute tweets saying "I'm going to VH...Woo-hoo...who are they?" It's pretty fucking obvious what's going on...

    It sucks the show got cancelled but if it was allowed to go on with that many people in that small of an area and something happened a lot of people could be seriously injured or end up dead even. Don't blame the guy that snitched them out, blame whoever was in charge of making sure only a certain amount of people were let in.

    Now THIS is painful. Clips from John 5's set, in great quality. And then the show gets canceled!
