If Ed (or the brothers along with Alex) had put more effort into finding another front man after Sammy quit (or got fired) there might not have been any more reunions with Sammy or Dave but then again who knows how long another singer would have lasted considering Ed's obvious moodiness. At this point I think the best option for VH financially would be one last tour with Hagar and retire or just say fuck it and retire now.

Buffalo is only a couple hours away but I don't think I'd go even if the show was here.Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.Comment

Despite that I never actually saw them live. Saw the Slash with Myles Kennedy thing which is maybe close enough.
I'm not into this new development of the kids wanting to go to gigs. Not only is it very expensive, I don't want them there anyway it's adult time.Comment

I'd much rather see Slash with Kennedy at this point, than see him with Rose. If fact, I'd rather see Alter Bridge than this version of GNR.Comment

They did a short tour when the album 1st came out with Faster Pussycat which I missed and then just a few festival/stadium shows in England.
The Axl solo GNR act has rolled through once or twice but I didn't want to give him my money for a 3 hour late show with a bunch of mediocrity.Comment

I was one of those annoying people who got Appetite the week it came out and so spent most of the following couple of years pointing that out to all their new fans.

Van Halen were never really a stadium-level headline act in the US to begin with.
Had they went on to do another tour with Roth after the 1984 one, maybe they could have done a series of stadium shows.
I mean, the 1988 Monsters of Rock shows or the US Festival aren't really good yardsticks to argue Van Halen was a stadium-level headline act, because Van Halen was merely headlining the bill of a LOT of other name acts in both cases.
I don't even think if Mike Anthony rejoined and it was a One Last Time CVH tour that the band could sell out stadiums at this point.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

That was one of the reasons why DLR left/quit/got fired...
The VH boys only wanted to do a couple dozen stadium shows in 1985, but Roth didn't like it....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals
