Really? Ya think??cooperrocks wrote: ↑Wed Aug 09, 2023 1:06 amI think it is highly likely there will be a summer Hollywood Vampires tour in the United States next year. The only thing that may be a stop to that is the Hollywood strike depending on when it is settled. If it gets resolved soon, Depp may have a ton of acting work to do next year to get caught up.

I’d think Joe Perry would have something to say to that .del wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2023 2:03 pmTwo quotes from the KRPM review Si put on the News page. Probably sums up all the HV shows I’ve seen so far.
“Part of what makes you feel like you are watching something truly special is the idea that The Hollywood Vampires show shouldn’t really work. There is not one song they play that absolutely everyone in the room seems to know simultaneously … but it does work, and what an absolutely storming concert this was!”
“this band is Alice Cooper and Friends, no matter how famous or talented, no matter how etched into the history of rock or film his bandmates happen to be.”
Right. No one knows Heroes or School's out or Another brick in the wall. Or Eighteen or Walk this way or Break on through to the other side, safe some Johnny Depp fans, who are not really here for the music, but for Johnny Depp.del wrote: ↑Fri Aug 11, 2023 2:03 pmTwo quotes from the KRPM review Si put on the News page.

It was suggested that the only 2 people that could get the show cancelled are Alice and Johnny, which makes sense. Alice was at the Guns N' Roses concert the next day, so it wasn't him. Also a while later, it was suggested that Johnny had food poisoning. That kinda make sense. The day before, there was a post from a restaurant that Johnny went there eating. It would not look good for the restaurant if the day after it is known that he got food poisoning.SickThings wrote: ↑Tue Aug 08, 2023 3:22 pmIf they wanted people to know the reason, they'd have said. Anything else is just speculation.
Given that the shows weren't cancelled in 2016 when Joe Perry was hospitalized, I'd be surprised if they cancelled just because of Johnny, whatever the reason, if he was the reason, but maybe the promoter made that call. We have no way of knowing, and it's pretty clear the powers-that-be aren't interested in telling why.
