Roth had a 2 year guaranteed contract of $8 million. Those CBS guys are geniuses.

That's a good contract for him but it's no big loss to CBS. They had planned on Roth building an audience faster. It never materialized. Opie and Anthony are a riot.

And FWIW... listening to Anthony or Jimmy talking about politics you get a lot of things you'd hear on FR. They're not afraid of muslims or charges of racism.

Frankly, I'm looking forward to O&A. They usually were good for some laughs. Roth was boring and until recently, his entire show ran with a bed so it sounded like a commercial. Not to mention they got rid of that illiterate guy "Animal" who talked like he had 3 toofthes and a thiread grud educamition.

As unnecessarily crude as he was, I still think Bubba the Love Sponge was the best shock jock I ever heard.

Just a gigolo
on the radio
and everywhere I go
people know the part
I'm playing

Paid for every glance
selling out to chance
every day my heart was
hardened to real lovin


There will come a day
libearals will pass away
then what will they say
about it

When the end comes I know
they'll say again no no
as the lieing goes on
without me

'Cause I aint got job
nobody nobody cares for me
I'm so rich and homely
rich and homely rich and homely
Won't some sweet mama
come and take a chance with me
cause I aint so bad

Get along with me babe,
been lyin in the mic
All of the time
Even only me, oh i gotta pee
Bop bozadee bozadee bop zitty bop

I ain't got nobody cept money and love
Hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla boobuhla
hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla bop

I ain't got nobody, nobody,
nobody cares for me
Nobody , nobody
I'm so rich and homely,
rich and homely,
rich and homely,
Won't some sweet mama come
and take a chance with me
cause I aint so bad

Get along with me babe,
been lying in the mic
All of the time
Even only be, honey only, only be

What bugged me about DLR's show was I couldn't tell when it was him or the woman talking on the show. :P

OK guys, time to resurrect the old debate:

Sammy Hagar or David Lee Roth?

I'll take Eddie casually noodling around on his guitar on a lazy afternoon first. Singers are only there so chicks will buy the CDs too.

You're right overtaxt... Eddie's the band... The singer makes no difference.

Well, my comment about chicks buying the CDs was tongue in cheek- but really- Eddie and Alex pretty much make the whole thing fly.

Hagar was a lot different than Roth, and the music reflected that. I would expect any singer to bring a bit of themself to the mix- but overpowering Eddie's musical presence is a lost cause.

I saw them both with Roth and Hagar, and I think the band was greatest with the original group.

They probably all need to retire... both Eddie and Roth look like a couple miles of bad road. They used to be so cute ;~D

Probably Bush's fault.

Those CBS guys are geniuses.

Maybe Les Moonves can work for Homeland Security.

Put together the finest minds in order to solve that sticky situation on the So. border.
