What's going to be a bigger trainwreck?

But, MA supposedly won't be involved it'll be Teen Wolf instead.

So, in reality it's not a "reunion". Wolfie's not an originial fucking member. He wasn't even an itch in Daddy's pants when this group had Roth in it the first time around.

I hope Roth stands his ground and lobbies for MA. But, if it's between him rejoining VH with Wolf or not rejoining at all.

Guess what he's gonna do?

** sarcasm ** I know the answer.

I haven't even decided if I'll be attending "this" tour.

Can't be a wreck since Dave's in.
Mike Anthony's non-participation is only a problem (or not, BTW :D) for afficionados like us: other music fans won't care about it - maybe they're wrong, but they very probably won't.
I only hope that it won't be Ed alone on backing vocals; it was magic as a pair with MA, but I'm not sure he can still sing in key today.
Unless DAVE sings the backing scrupulously (I mean, ALL of it, which he didn't always do back in the day, the parts he could do that is)...
Well, they're "supposed" to be great professionals, and I guess that they must have found a solution to that, if those 14 tracks made it as much as it was reported they did.
But it's true that there's something to worry about here.

No, it's easy to understand and I agree.

There, wasnt that easy?

Ed please don't let Wolfie Van Hanson play....

The more I think about it the more I'm thinking Wolfie is going to be a non-issue as far as the bass playing goes. Hell, give me a year with my son and I could teach him all of those bass parts and he could play them without flinching. Vocally is where MA will be missed the most...be hard to replace that with anyone.

Now...will this tour be better than 2004? What the fuck kind of question is that? I never heard EVH say in 2004, "come on Sam, get your ass up here and sing, bitch." EVH wants Dave, and therefore he will actually do his best. I don't think he really wanted to tour with Sambo in 2004, and therefore it showed in his playing.

Damn, what could force Ed to tour with Hagar, then?

[BrownSound1]

Well on paper he might have thought it was a good idea, but any idiot can tell by the way EVH was acting that he did not want to be there with Sammy. Perhaps he was just looking to get paid, perhaps it was pressure from Alex...who knows. All I know is that he didn't seem to give a shit. With Dave I think he gives a shit.

Because they didn't fucking sell any. So now Ringo Anthony tries selling them off to Van Hagar fags.

We should start calling you Ringo Hagar.

2007 has the most potential to be a HUGE trainwreck.

1) a 15 year-old kid. He might be fine playing in the garage with his dad and uncle but in front of 10,000 people is a different story. He's never toured or played bass until this year!!! 2004 at least had the Mach II original line-up.

2) MA missing totally negates this being a true CVH reunion. 2004 at least had the Mach II original line-up.

3) Eddie's playing sucked in 2004 how could it be any better today? He looks as messed up as ever so there's no way this guy has his shit together. Nothing to add here since Ed sucked in 2004.

4) A 3rd best of CD but this time not even one new song??? Come on guys that smells pretty fishy to me. With all the music the Ed and Al are supposed to have stock piled are you telling me they can't record one new track!!! 2004 they were able to string 3 songs together how can they not do 1 in 2007!!!!

5) DLR... I saw the Sam and Dave show and it sucked royal ass. Dave only sounded great on about 5 songs and the rest were horrifying. Plus that tight glitter suit stuff makes him look like a fool. (BTW the show I saw was at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles I was with a friend who worships CVH and Dave... he was embarassed for Roth as was I)
2004: Sammy's attire and stage patter is just as horrific as DLR's BUT Sammy can sing his ass off.
