I don't quite know if this belongs in the rumors sections, but I saw this from Launch.com and I think it puts into perspective their creditibility (or lack thereof). Even the most asleep rock fan in the world knows that Rob Halford is not the former singer for Iron Maiden. If they can't get simple things like this right, why even bother reading any tidbits they claim to have on the current VH situation...

From Launch.com:

Iron Maiden, Queensryche and Halford, the band founded by former Iron Maiden frontman Rob Halford, launched their North American arena tour Tuesday in Toronto. The three metal masters will share the stage together through late September, making their U.S. debut Saturday with a sold-out show at New York's Madison Square Garden. Halford's debut album, "Resurrection," arrives in stores on Aug. 8. Iron Maiden's latest, "Brave New World," debuted at No. 39 on the Billboard 200 in early June. Meanwhile, Queensryche's "Greatest Hits" was issued June 27.

Kinda off topic, but I hear you about the media making stupid remarks like that. The KISS/Nugent/Skid Row show came through here about 2 weeks ago and the reviewer the next day in the paper had several negative things to say about Sebastian Bach of Skid Row. Which is fine except for the fact that Bach isn't in Skid Row anymore. You would think that someone who reviews rock concerts would have known that.

Its not Halfords debut either. He had that one with John Lowery a couple of years ago. Wasn't it called "Voyers" Maybe they weren't using Halfords name for that one though.
