Diamond Temple

[Junk Yard Dog]

From the rumor mill:
Diamond Dave is teaming up with former STP boys the Deleo brothers to form Diamond Temple. Mike Mangini is rounding out on drums. This promises to be a kick ass group. Guess Dave got tired of carrying stretchers down six flights of stairs. The boys hit the studio mid January with plans to open for Audio Slave on their summer 05 tour. This should be interesting and I know they will sound great.

JYD!! GIMME A HEADBUTT, PAL!!! Diamond Temple? Dave already has a better band than the DeLeo Dummies... DeLeo trying to play "Elephant Gun" would make me CRY I'd be laughing so hard....

[Junk Yard Dog]

I'm tellin ya it's a done deal.
Dave's looking to make some real cash and the Deleo brothers are proven money makers. Look how they carried druggie Scott through all those tours and CD's and made millions. Dave is hedging his bets this time, he has found the sweet sound of KA-CHING !$$$$$$$$$

[scottydabodi]

Yeah, but where's my HEADBUTT, JYD? Let's dance in the ring!! DeLeo's = Bad Idea. Brian Young = Genius idea.

[scottydabodi]

JYD, I'm givin' you 5 star vote just for your name!! Kick ass!! R.I.P. JYD.

I think this would be awesome!!!!!!!!! I love STP. This would be a great band.

But I still kind of doubt this one.

I doubt it...but.

Just a thought but I wonder how Dave would do if he went under a name such as Diamond Temple verses the solo DLR monicker?

Like it or not people do dismiss dave as nostalga act...you may fool the masses into taking a listen...

[CROWBAR]

Dude, this is SO bogus! Now drop an' give us fifty!

[bueno bob]

Well...

[lms2]

The name Diamond Temple... I can believe

A new band... would be believable if I had not heard so many reviews saying how tight this band is... coupled with the rumors of two or three albums worth of new material...

But Dave selling out for cash... not believable.

And I really don't see any band of Dave's as an opening act at this stage in the game.

Absolutely not...not considering how hard he had to fight for headlining the Sam & Dave tour...he wouldn't do an opening act if a loaded gun was pointed at his head, I don't think, anyway...
