If Eddie could work out a way to earn $150 per copy of a new original Van Halen album we would have one.
I think he resents that the album didn't make him money so that means it doesn't have value. This is wrong thinking, without new material a band dies on the vine you can only go back the well so many times. Someone needs to explain to him how the economics work now, you would think if no one else his boy could.Comment

Van Halen Secretly Planning for 2015 Tour ???
Right. Nobody is going to hear that garbage on the radio, and then NOT go to a show because of it. If you think this band isn't getting crucified over this, and killing any numbers they potentially had for a tour, again, you are more delusional than even I thought. The 5 doomsdayers on this site, are going easy compared to what the general population is saying about this band right now.
What were Sabbath's tour numbers on the 13 tour?Comment

11,000 tickets isn't selling out an arena here Sesh. Most are around 20,000. The Palace here is 24,000.
Their only hope is, to keep the dates to a minimum, and hope people will drive to regional shows. Even with gas down, I can't see it happening with those ticket prices.Comment

Damn right.
Here's the thing: When Dave does something good, us Circle Jerkers get ripped for being super fans who get excited when Dave takes a shit. And that's fine with us. But nobody can say we don't call things like they are. Good, bad, shitty - we tell it like it is. And I have argued repeatedly about Dave's less-than-great-performances with idiots from one end of the world to the other here. And what did they say? "Oh, you can't judge a show based on youtube videos because you're not hearing it like it really is". Bullfuckingshit. And this new record proves me right. You take it right off the soundboard and it sounds even worse.American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.

My take on it is maybe a minority one here but here it is.
If there was a gig on the tour where Ed was on fire and Dave was singing at his best 2008 level and it had been brilliantly produced and in a great package if I'm honest I still don't think I would have listened to it that much.
Live albums? It's 2015 plus live albums from people who are almost at pension age?
When you go to see a band like Van Halen at this point it's a nostalgia experience, any live recording with a semblance of integrity is not going to stand up on a rainy Monday evening as you drive the kid to their piano lesson. You can kid yourself that they and you are the same as you were at both your peaks after 8 beers at a gig but not in the cold light of day.
All that said there is a lot of piss and vinegar in this thread and the bottom line is that no one is forcing anyone to buy it.Comment

According to the Pollstar Year End Top 200 North American Tours, Black Sabbath did really well with a combined total of selling 293,783 in the 21 cities they played in. The sales for the band netted them a cool $19.7 million overall and landed them 56th on the list,Eat Us And Smile - The Originals
