something sort of interesting. the DAVE MATTHEWS BAND has a whole album of stuff done that was unreleased. and didn't AEROSMITH have most of album done before NINE LIVES? i was just thinking what if VH had an entire album done but decided to scrap because it was a little different. well i guess it wasnt that interesting after all.
just thought i woud share that.

I heard the same thing on the DMB. They had an album written and pretty well dialed, and were heading into the studio with it, but once they got there, they didn't find it to be what they were after. They hit it off with Ballard, and found themselves to be creatively inspired in the studio with him, wrote another albums worth of new stuff in the studio as they went. Oh well, if you see the DMB in the summer, you'll most likely hear all of both albums, what a great band that is.

Well we know that VH did do some new tracks with Gary, so there might be an album's worth of stuff hanging around from those sessions.

I think that would be great! Could you imagine just having all those extra tracks put onto one cd for us all. It would rock if there was a bunch of hodgepodge left from the Roth and Hagar era... Nice idea put in my head thanks to topik killer.
