Members felix Posted October 3, 2005 Members Share Posted October 3, 2005 Can you believe it? The show that found a new frontman for INXS this year will tackle Van Halen next year? Rumored on Remember the Eighties.com Think they'll have David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar stop by and help judge? Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UstadKhanAli Posted October 3, 2005 Members Share Posted October 3, 2005 That should be really funny. I hope that they get all manner of singer: reggae singers, Armenian folk, Holiday Inn performers, Vegas performers...come to think of it, they already had a Vegas performer with DLR.

Members blue2blue Posted October 3, 2005 Members Share Posted October 3, 2005 I nominate Paul Anka. He's got the finesse and savoir faire to take Van Halen into a whole new era... adulthood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Beck Posted October 4, 2005 Members Share Posted October 4, 2005 How pathetic! These groups should really be put to sleep rather than die a slow, agonizing death; losing all respect and status they worked so long to attain in the process.

Members Base Posted October 4, 2005 Members Share Posted October 4, 2005 I really hope that's just a rumour I never cared for INXS and still felt sorry for them when I heard they were doing this, I really don't want to see VH go down the same way. Maybe we could have a whip round if they are doing so badly that they need to resort to this...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jotown Posted October 4, 2005 Members Share Posted October 4, 2005 VH could do a tour right now with David and Sammy and it would sell out in hours. They don't want to share the wealth with the other boys, or they are real a$$holes to work with (or both). Face it when you think (Eddie and Alex) that a singer is a disposable part of your band, and that you can plug anyone in because you are the show you have some massive ego's in action. I didn't watch the INXS version and I won't watch the VH version either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nursers Posted October 4, 2005 Members Share Posted October 4, 2005 Originally posted by Jotown I didn't watch the INXS version and I won't watch the VH version either. So how do you know the concept isn't a good one for the bands involved? If nothing else, the house band on the INXS shows were nothing short of excellent.....

Members Jeff da Weasel Posted October 4, 2005 Members Share Posted October 4, 2005 I still say this is all irrelevant, since I should be the next singer for Van Halen. Y'all need to start a write-in campaign for me. I'll let you know what happens when Edward calls. - Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, the house band on the INXS shows were nothing short of excellent..... I never said the concept was bad. My comments were on VH and their history of difficult relationships with their singers. The show may be a great concept, but that doesn't undo how bored I have been with VH for a long time. Thats why I won't be watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
