I thought that Live would debut new songs during last week's shows based on my hearing last summer that they were excited about planning a new album. I had it on pretty good word and they were supposed to be ready to get it done. Since they didn't, I have to wonder why plans changed and what that means for the future of the band? I heard at least two and maybe three of the guys had a major shouting match backstage near the end of last summer, and I also heard that after the Sayreville show last night, Ed left the stage and went immediately into a car and just left. Not to mention the setlists. Anyone have information or speculation?

Since Live is no longer on a label, they have to play shows in order to make ends' meat. They no longer have the luxury of waiting to tour between albums. Also, the west coast dates were all make-ups from the tour with Collective Soul, and I figure they just added east coast dates because they always sell well in that area of the country.

Also, now that they are their own bosses, they have no rush on getting a new album out. They can slowly work on one, and wait until they feel ready to record and release it. I also think a concert DVD will come before a new album, and the band's energy will not be focused on releasing a new album until 2009. That is just my hunch and nothing more.

hmm, so you think they will remain label-less, or releasing on Action Front in the future??

I don't think they are big enough to release albums and dvd's on their own label ...
