David Lee Roth's Final Tour Schedule 2021/2022

[Terry]

Any show is obviously a gamble at the moment but if you book a single location and expect people to come to you then I think you owe them a bit more of an explanation because people will travel and you can't refund that.

Well, and that's the thing...Roth was very explicit in that these would be his final shows anywhere, ever. I didn't interpret his retirement announcement in any other way: after these Vegas shows, he was done performing, period.

These shows were billed as such, and people bought tickets believing it was such. Even with the amount of bands/acts that have undertaken what turned out to have been bullshit farewell tours before and if anybody's farewell announcement should be taken at face value or with a grain of salt or whatever, one would like to think Roth was being direct enough and honest enough when he said these Vegas shows were it.

And, yeah, doubtless some people were travelling from far and wide to go, and travel to Vegas ain't cheap...nor are lodgings.

So, for Dave to give some "shit happens" half-assed response...yeah, were I one of those who bought tickets and laid out non-refundable expense money to go see the guy, I'd be more than a bit pissed.

Don't worry, though: Sammy Hagar just told Blabbermouth that he's willing to perform lead vocal duties for Roth's upcoming farewell concert series...so you guys who bought tix just head out to Vegas...the Red Rocker has got you covered! Everybody, altogether now
Your love is driving me crazy!
Your love just takes me away!
