was Dave trying to send us a message with "Look at all the people here tonight"?

    I may have this all wrong because I forgot the realease date of Dave's latest "work", "Look at all the people here tonight", but from memory it was after July last year.

    Could this have been Dave's way of letting us know that he was not recording with VH once more? Its funny because at the time we were all saying "Nahh, Dave had nothing to do with this new song" and "How could dave put out a new single - he's recording with VH!". But all along after July he was not in fact recording with VH. Maybe He was obliged to keep quiet about the recording etc but decided to throw us a bone by releasing a new "solo" single!

    It all seems to make sence in hindsight! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

    What do you guys think?

    Actually, I'd wager the release was between September and December sometime.

    I believe LAATPHT was a tactful attempt by Dave to get someone from VH to call him back. Make them think he's seriously thinking about restarting his dead solo career to make them jump to action and bring him back into 5150 for fear of losing him.

    I also believe that it obviously didn't work, given his other two swipes at the band. And this obviously means VH mustn't be interested in DLR anymore.

    i think all roads are leading back to Eddie's health right now.
    this other stuff is all confusing and misleading.

    I tend to agree. Although I hate to be so pessimistic, I can't help but feel that Ed's health has a lot to do with what is going on. Neither of the recent messages from both camps had a hint of sarcasm in them. I don't know, I'm just fearing the worst.

    yeah, but remember in VH's press release they said "all the rumours are just that, rumours" or something to that affect. Well, the cancer thing is a rumour too don't forget. I know they probably don't want anybody to know anything if there is something serious going on with Ed's health but then why did they say that all the rumours are just rumours?

    You know, when you think about it, VH's responce really wasn't in reaction to Dave's comments at all. Pretty much all they said was, "Don't believe any rumors," which, in a way, doesn't deny anything, but it doesn't confirm it.

    So basically they're saying something like:

    Don't Buy into
    <UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>DLR being back
    <LI>The album being anything anyone has said
    <LI>Any dates/times for release
    <LI>Anything Eddymon has said [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img][/list]

    But I've gotten a bit off topic.

    I think Dave has been sending VH messages for a while. Besides that single and his website messages, there were also farily strong rumours that he had booked some solo shows in March. I believe Grant Fisher even had this confirmed by one of the venues.
