Beyond that you're shuffled to the back room and paid well to shut up and be amazing at what you do. You don't get to attend core team meetings, social lunches nor the company picnic...

    Tell me you've seen anything but that from Roth the last 4 years..?

    /Shrug. You do the worrying.....the rest of us will see you on tour.

    Roth On!

        If you want to go down this route, then would it be good form for one of upper management/owners to launch what was effectively a competing product (Crazy from the Heat)?

        Just sayin...its not like anyone is saying anything these last three years. All is good

            Funny, last time Van Halen played a big festival overseas they opened for Bon Jovi. Just goes to show what a simple "...with David Lee Roth" can do for a band.

                How easy or expensive is it for our New Zealand buddies to get over to Australia? Is it a fairly inexpensive flight like a Los Angeles to Seattle type thing with many flights per day?

                  frequency depends on if the pterodactyls are in mating season or not, no idea on price...

                        Okay. That is very do-able for the NZ fans. That's similar to a CA to TX flight. About halfway across the US. Not bad at all.

                            Old news for me but alas I have not been online for very long lately.
                            Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

                              I hope the band plays to the best of their abilities for our brothers Down Under; fuck, we've had it pretty good in America far as CVH (or Van Halen with Roth) goes in terms of at least being able to see the band, and the Australian Army Contingent deserves a great show. Keep Ed away from the Foster's!
