Official thread for discussing the unconfirmed bulllshit Clear Channel tour rumors

[dougo]

I admit that the gal on DUNN28's post certainly helps to put things in perspective.

Just waking up, Terry?

Didn't get on the boards until a couple of hours ago, so I probably got the news later than most, but I'm seriously too stupified to say much more than "what the fuck?!"

Just mystifying.

I finally made up my mind to go see them, Wolfie and all, and they pull this shit?!!

Not much else to do but shake my head and laugh...

Am hoping it's all a bunch of bullshit.

Let me bottom line this....

Baby's on Fire is claiming, through his inside knowledge, that RS would REQUIRE a signed tour contract PRIOR to agreeing to shoot Dave, Ed, Al, and Wolfie together.

That, as the kids say.....is utter BULLSHIT.

What RS lawyers WOULD require from each person at the shoot, is a SIGNED RELEASE allowing RS to use said photo.

Baby's on Fire is either:

Misinformed.
Confused.
Lying.
Moronic.
or
Retarded.

You cannot say that about an independently wealthy business man such as Baby's On Fire. He clearly has a strong legal background --- probably from reading the Legal Disclaimers on the back of all the lottery tickets he sells at his Day Job.

Van Halen is still touring this summer, don't believe the crap you see or hear.

I don't know what or who to believe anymore? This is the worst Public Relations I have seen in my entire life. I can't help but to just laugh.

Damn, watching Lounge and Rikk slaughter a sheep, took my mind off this whole postponed tour. Thanks guys. Roth Army rules. No fuckin room for sheep over here.

....I'm weighing in a bit late...

But I think the use of the phrase "suspended indefinitely" is somewhat interesting...

Lawyers grinding it to a halt again?

Best case scenario - it's 'indefinitely' suspended because they're trying to bring Mike back into the fold and resolve issues with him, and it won't happen until everybody's on the same page and everybody has a gag order until it all gets cleared up. That's the 'made in Heaven' scenario, as I see it.

Middle case scenario - Mike's not a part of any of this and it's lawyers that are grinding it to a halt once again. Ed and Alex probably want another confirmed payday a la 2004 and the name "Van Halen" simply raises too many red flags these days - they can't get a confirmed per diem per concert and Ed's left with his thumb up his ass.

Worst case scenario - Ed and Al are pulling their "sign away all your rights to Van Halen or else(c)" crap with David and he isn't buying. Or selling, whichever the case may be. If that's the case, I'd say you'll never again see Van Halen on any sort of stage - and if you do, it'll be with the next winner of Rock Star.

Time is fucking up for all of them. Either they get it right NOW or they never fucking do.

It was actually a self-owning.

The more he posted, the funnier it got.

By the way, before I can allow you to post further, we at The Army will require you to send us a copy of your contract.

You're the dumbass. When you have made it in the world of business as I have, then voice your opinion. Until then, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

There is NO WAY Rolling Stone is gonna just start snapping photos for the magazine without a verification the band is back as a band.

You're an idiot to think otherwise. Now, there could have been a falling out since, but there WAS a contract. Fucking period.
