Fucking lame

[Terry]

Tubby and The Bass Player are coming to town on that Waborita tour they're doing, billed as The Other Two (as in, I'm guessing, the other two pieces of shit that comprise Van Hagar).

Am listening to the local classic rock station on the way home from work. Station plays little no Hagar solo or Van Hagar music (or if it does, it's when I'm not listening, thank god). Station plays Hot For Teacher. The song ends. Immediately after that the d.j. launches into an ad for the Hagar show.

This is the third time in as many weeks the station plays CVH and then plays the Hagar advert. Kinda has shades of the same station and its promos for the Sham Halen 2004 tour, which were CVH songs with a VO that 'Van Halen' was coming to town...

What the fuck gives, here? Have to presume the strategy is to play CVH as a lead-in so people will hear the advert, because if it was a Sam Hagar or Van Hagar song, people would already be changing the dial long before the song was over.

Fucking cheesy bullshit! Here's Sam, all these years later, still coasting off of what CVH created.

Pathetic.

I usually hate to do the clichés, but... Now that's fucked up.

Kinda the same deal here during the cash-grab. 96 schlock would run a huge promo for it, then immediately play Hot For Teacher.....every single time.

Telling.

[Polk High]

it's always been like that, nothing new

[bantonelli]

I call it Desperation. The only way Tubby can get everyone's attention is to play something from the CVH collection!

No one wants to hear Tubby sing Poundcake when you know he'd rather eat it.

[Coyote]

By the pound, too...

How wack is it that Bette and The Bass Player are doing a radio show now. They make me sick. Bette always did, but Bass Player is no better.

Got me to thinking -- I bet they're going to be taking callers on those radio shows. Maybe it's time for the Roth Army to go on special ops . . . . some serious havoc coulc be wrought, especially at the first such show when they wouldn't be expecting it.
