Aerosmith Sunk Van Halen Gig?

08/11/2011
. (RockAAA) Following the collapse of Australia's Soundwave Revolution touring festival, rumours have been rife regarding exactly who's to blame. Promoter AJ Maddah suggested in an interview with radio station Nova 969 that his attempts to nail down a co-headliner had been thwarted as the band in question failed to commit in time.

Internet rumours seemed to jump the gun and point the finger at Limp Bizkit, however front-man Fred Durst was quick to deny: "FYI, we were never on the bill to play any festival down under. So it looks like Van Halen cancels and we get thrown into the mix. Classic."

It now appears that Aerosmith may be next in the firing line from VH fans as Triple M radio's Nui Te Koha announced on his breakfast show that organisers had been chasing the Boston rockers for the slot. But Nui however is convinced much of this activity was used as a smokescreen to disguise the real issue � poor ticket sales.
