David Lee Roth off the air

I’m not sure of the whole story yet but it is official, Dave has been booted from CBS. Dave says he was ‘booted and tossed and someone will pay’. He reportedly heard the news on the way to the studio this morning on his cell phone. Apparently CBS will replace Dave with shock jocks Opie & Anthony creating the first ever sattelite to sydication deal. Opie & Anthony used to be on CBS until they were fired and went to XM radio. Stern commented plenty of times saying that a radio show is not made in 30 days or even a year. Stern made his way the same way Dave was trying to do back when radio still had credibility before Clear Channel took over. Stern made fun of Opie and Anthony and had a rivarly with them when he was with CBS. I bet money that Dave will end up on Sterns show at LEAST as a guest in the future.

Update: 4/22

Dave wasn’t in too bad of a mood from his departure. Read more here about how he made a suprise appearance at a private party and sang with the house band.
