I was listening to Eddie Trunk's show on the Boneyard tonight and he had some interesting stuff to say about Diamond Dave. He said that he (Trunk) was in Las Vegas 2 weekends ago and heard from a reliable source that a promoter was trying to get a Vegas show going with Dave, Vince Neil and another singer (i can't remember for the life of me who) all sharing the same backing band. The plan would be for each singer to do about 6 songs and then all come back at the end to perform together. He went on to say that one of the singers involved had actually had discussions but he wouldn't say who. He hinted that it wasn't Roth because Roth is still laying low in hopes of Van Halen doing something. He said that he couldn't see Roth pursuing anything until he is out of Van Halen so as not to piss Eddie off, and since he has still been quiet, one can only assume that he is in Van Halen.
He didn't say it, but it would make the most sense that Vince would have had the discussions considering he owns his own night club in Vegas. He didn't report on who the backing band would supposedly be. I was hoping someone else may have heard this so i can find out who that 3rd singer was that was floated.
Trunk also played Women in Love and commented on how it is still as fresh today as it was then. He said that very few artists' music hold up over the test of time like Led Zep, but that Van Halen does, especially the first few albums. This kind of surprised me considering I always kind of thought Trunk was on Sammy's jock a lot.
Anyway, thought it was at least noteworthy.
