Dave sounded good in the few 2013 shows. There was a noticeable improvement from 2012. Whatever was dogging him cleared up. I think he's more than capable to knock out another album. He just needs someone to keep him in the low register. That's his wheelhouse.Originally posted by wiseguyThat shit will welcome you in the morning and pour the milk in your count chocula for ya.Comment

Damn, this thread is right up my alley, but everyone has made grate posts and I agree with all of them!
That being said, at this particular time, I think I need more brand new music. Being that I'm so bummed that so many fucking years were blown without knowing how the real deal would have progressed from 1984 on, coupled with Dave's lyrics being more wisdomatic and his studio vocals still impress, I think I can hold off a little bit longer before I go ape shit for the crisp vintage stuff to be officially released.Comment

I'd rather have a new album and tour. The old stuff will always be there and could be released whenever, if they're so inclined (i know, big if). The clock is ticking for these guys. I'd just assume squeeze out as much new stuff as possible before they hang it up. Plus, i'm not convinced that they'd actually mine the vaults and put out truly unreleased stuff as opposed to just cleaning up and releasing stuff that's already been out there for years. (not that that isn't a good thing, but i personally am more interested in truly unreleased stuff)Last edited by chuckjitsu; 04-18-2014, 05:59 PM.Comment

Honestly, at this point, I would buy a new disc but wouldnt pay $100 plus to see a new show..sorry..I love this fuckin band but age has caught up to me and VH...mix up the setlist every night and throw in tons of ADKOT and I may rethink...Comment

Yip am reading through the thread trying not to agree with everyone but the time isn't on out side release new stuff while they can and get the vault stuff later seems to be where my head is at the mo .
Will probably change with the next good postfuck your fucking framingComment

we outta spaceAnother one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!Comment

I'd like the box set, but I suspect it will never happen. I don't want to suggest that the guys are motivated by cash, but another tour in a couple of years will net them more cash than a boxset of live performances. Who buys DVDs these days? Even if the few hundred thousand fans who bought ADKOT - probably nudging a million worldwide - would buy such a product, it's probably not going to make a lot of financial sense.
The other thing is that there's a good chance that they probably don't own that footage that we know exists - never mind what we don't know about - and they don't have either a record label or a hands-on manager who could facilitate that stuff being licensed and put together.
Meanwhile, whatever this 'Project' is, the VHND is reporting that Ed has just released his new line of stripey sneakers. Those wear out quicker than CDs, and probably sell over and over to those fashionable dudes who wear 'em!THINK LIKE THE WAVESComment

Well lets see for me personally they can stay home put out as much new music as possible but as far as touring forget it unless MA comes back for some one offs. Painful to watch Dave. Ed's still bringing it but time has sapped the shit out of them. Anyway new music, classic shows from 78-84 and any unreleased material that they have laying around and I'd be happy.Comment
