Yeah Spazzy said the 1st time he rolled up it was full of Colt 45 cans and there were cigarette butts all over.

I had a feeling they would not last long so I downloaded them.

Here is a link to the first one "Building 5150 Studios Episode 1"

They guy who made it posted that he should have an update fairly soon. Said he would explain the whole situation when the time is right. Obviously VH in some form got involved but airing the episodes doesn't seem to be off the table.

I was guessing Roth objected, but I don't think he has any say in VH matters. I suppose his camp could get a cease still maybe? Supposedly the third episode makes him look even worse and this will be the only documentary on VH from 1984 going forward.

Roth wouldn’t give a fuck about it.

It’s not just VH, he was using a bunch of footage from dozens of sources that he didn’t own.

Bound to happen. Should have just dumped them all the same day rather than the schedule bullshit, then they’d at least have been out there to obtain.

Yeah, not sure how he didn't see that coming. Especially were the documentary was getting publicity on at least the Sirius channels and VHND had a watch party for the first couple. It took him 7 months to put it together.

EDIT: So the guy's been posting updates on Reddit and elsewhere. Quick paraphrase. Alex has the videos and was just made aware of them last week. It's up to him whether or not they're released, but no determination has been made yet.

He also mention that he didn't put them all up at one because he wasn't sure how VH would respond and if they were all up at once, he'd receive 5 copyright strikes or something and channel would be deleted, rather than just a couple for two episodes, so it was a test release.

Hmm. You'd think this would be fair use if he's only using clips of songs.

Alex Van Halen, always causing trouble.

That’s the thing, who gives a fuck if your channel is deleted?… unless you’re making money off that said channel, which leads to this being all done for money not fandom, which is why in the end AVH will kill it.

This guy is either stupid or clueless. When he announced he was releasing them one at a time, you knew this was going to happen.

Drop them all at once and then they're "out there", but apparently that would have been too easy when he could try to milk this for notoriety and it blew up in his face.

Dummy.

Minus what has to be an astronomical figure for how much the show cost to run.

Besides, the Bowie name sold the whole thing.

Huh? Heavy Metal Day was the biggest day of the event, by far!

Let's Dance was blowing up, but I'm still pretty sure Van Halen was the most important band of that year's US Festival. Their contract even said they'd be the highest paid artist.

Of course VH was bigger, no question. Like Kiss, Bowie was always more hype than happening, and, also like Kiss, he had one (1) multiplatinum album in 40+ years of recordings.

What does that have to do with Bowie having a famous name?
