They'll NEVER have a singer that isn't DLR or Sammy ever again. I just don't see it. I think Gary was enough. He was a great guy and they got along swimmingly, but the fans want either Roth or Hagar. The days of "another" one are over, I'd wager with anyone.

 

It's happy trails time, kids. One or two more tours. Maybe one more album.

 

Set sail....

If Roth did leave I can't see them ever bringing Sammy back, he'd insist Wolfie gets booted in favour of Mike too...

 

I vote for Katie!

As Bad as that Gary album was, the tour was Fantastic . I saw it 2 times and it was better than 14 or 15 times i saw them with Sammy. No Joke

I never got the chance, but I saw the clips. Indeed. Fine vocalist.

 

The new songs were largely CRAP though. Neither Hagar nor Roth could've salvaged VH3.

What about if they bring in a girl to replace Roth once he gets booted out?

Hear About It Later . I can't believe they dug that up  1022.gif

The bad news is they dropped Mean Street for that, they should have dropped I'll Wait...

Tremendous! One of my favorite all-time VH songs, and im fine with them dropping mean street for this rarity. Anticipation for this show grows by the day.

Les Pauls should not come in certain colors. Purple is one of them.

Unless you are Prince

That was also my first reaction to the picture. I looked at it a second and and realized that this chick makes it work.

I've said it before and I'll say it again (and again and again and again because some people just don't F'ing listen) - Sam will stop talking about VH as soon as interviewers stop asking him about VH.

Sam is a big enough artist that he can lay down the law as far as interviews go. Any major celebrity can lay ground rules as to what they will/won't talk about , Maybe he should try it . He has been with Mike long enough that he can talk about his bass playing without having bring up VH and mention Ed's drinking. It's lame .

This is exactly right. You're not ENSLAVED by an interviewer. I'll chalk it up to Sammy not knowing how to control an interview if so. But the TRUTH is he loves getting asked the question as much as a "journalist" might enjoy asking it.

 

I'll say it again and again and again (because people don't f@ckin' listen)...he should look at his own bandmate Mike on how to take the high road. Why is it that one of them can address the same question professionally and one cannot? biggrin.gif If anyone has a right to be bitter or critical or dismissive, it's Mikey. And yet...he's above that.

 

Michael Anthony remains the gold standard for BOTH bands when it comes to conduct.

Well, we just heard from Satch about his thoughts on the new VH album... are we going to start bashing him now, too? Or is it just Sam and Mike that should gag themselves when it comes to the band that they were a part of for two decades (or more)?

I'm not commenting any further till i hear what Chad Smith and Kenny Aranoff think laugh.gif
