Actually, that's the weird thing: usually in a situation like this, the band is REQUIRED to go into full damage control mode, and go out to the press, radio, MTV, WHATEVER to generate as much publicity for the tour as possible.

I GUARANTEE the promoters are extremely pissed off with the band for the lack of promotion and access for the press.

So what went wrong? here's my theory: Sammy and Mike were just hired hands this time around. Not worth ther while to try to sell more tickets, because they're making a fixed rate anyway. What do they ultimately care?

Eddie and Alex didn't do additional pres and promotion b/c
a) they are both lousy interviews and don't enjoy it.
b) Ed WAS undeniably constantly drunk and that would have been evident and an unavaoidable subject
c) The question of Dave (journalists would have been told no mentioning of Dave, but they can always work their way aorund to the subject, simply by mentioning "There's more classic material in this set than ever, why?"
d) they still rememeber the beating up in the press they received after the 96 reunion debacle and then the horseshit of VHIII. better not to do press, b/c they are such EMOTIONAL, IMMATURE, JUVENILE ASSHOLES, and being taken to task for their behavior and actions would HURT THEIR FEELINGS. WAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

bingo, my man

Great post tomballin.

When Van Hagar fucked over (oops I meant PLAYED FOR) a half empty arena in Wichita, Kansas this year, when the van carrying King Edward The Drunque arrived at the coliseum, he was so fucked up out of his mind, he could not even unbuckle his seat belt!

My best friend has been earning a living as a musician in that area for the past 20 years, and he was told this by the Program Director of the local rock station.

That sorry fuck and his Cro-Magnon sister need to pull his fucking head out of his ass (yeah it will take two of them to do it...his head is stuck so far up his ass it is almost coming out his own mouth!).
