Art Bell Quits Dark Matter

[kingdomofsigh]

How long until someone makes a 'Hitler finds out Art Bell quits Dark Matter' video.

24 hours I'm thinking.

[Agent : Orange]

How long before you people say RENAME IT TO ARTBELLSUCKS.COM JEEZ!

Let me say I really hope he comes back to SiriusXM, especially after so many fans spent money on equipment and subscriptions to listen to him exclusively. Hell, Art gave away an XM radio kit on his last show. Which now appears to be cruel irony.

I just found out that Art has a very rich relative in Nigeria. If we will send Art our bank routing and account information, this rich Nigerian relative will deposit a large amount of money into our accounts. All we have to do, after receiving the money, is forward half of it to Art to get him back on the air. Sounds like a win-win to me.

No. It's the stupid camera angle if it makes me look weird. I am 5'3, and 28 years old.

Ahh.  I was thinking you were pulling a little bit of "Little People Big Dark Matter" here.

Luna -- why is that partial logo in the left corner of your picture?  I used to work for that company!  Haven't seen that in years!

Awwww...

I am so depressed, doing this is the only thing giving me comfort right now. I think I will take tomorrow off form work and sulk around at home. .__.

Dont let a bipolar man (art bell) ruin your day. Art has done this numerous times. Youll be fine. I have a few hundred of arts old shows that i can send you if you really want them, but i have to transfer them from cd to usb memory card so it may take a while. Dont let a bitter old demanding, unappreciative, BIPOLAR, moody man ruin your day. Yes i am sad, as many others are, but lets move on.

Fuck that's painful

After giving the speech at the beginning on how he is in this for the long haul and not a quitter, and giving up the details of previous retirements, cancelling the show 2 months in and blaming it on the call quality is reaching self-parody. Sorry to say

Ah, I hate that And how at the end of the show he would always tell us the phone-lines were lit right up. Was that fake bragging? Because now he's saying he needs more callers.

28? Oh man, now I feel depressed AND old. Fuck it! Maybe I should just take up cocaine again.

Me too, I really, really reallllly hope he returns. His show was a great comfort to me.

I am just noticing posts about Chris' wife. I am very concerned.

no, not my wife. my buddy threatened to hurt himself because of art cancelling the show. ive been in contact with the wife as he left the house and were not sure where hes at and hes not answering the phone.

Oh dear haha... it is very disappointing. I'm more mad than depressed. I feel disrespected. I don't know. Just feels like this whole thing is very shady. To an uneducated listener this stance by Art has all the right intentions, but deep underneath the root of all this is his hatred towards Premiere network and his drive to bring Coast To Coast down as fast as possible. But Art is the one going to be kicking himself if Sirius does not call his bluff and give in to his demands.

Is that really accurate though? The cellphone audio did suck, listen to the programs, potato phones and all. Beyond that, it was mostly bellgabbers. No offense to Jaz, but when a single Australian listener can get on so much on Skype that he has to moderate his own calls to not wear out his welcome, there's a damned problem.

What I don't get, SciFi, is if Art really wanted to stick with Dark Matter, why didn't he work with them for awhile behind the scenes to resolve any issues?  Hell, he was only on the air for six weeks.  I can't imagine showing-up new to a job, no matter my prior rep, and making ultimatums to my new employer.  Unless I wanted to get fired.

Hope it all turns out fine.

Can't tell you, they apparently don't have streaming problems. Look, the errors weren't made up, you can see them in the live show threads.

By the way, I signed up for NFL Mobile tonight so I could watch football on my Iphone and it too kept continually cutting out. When it did work the picture and sound were great but it was not working more than it was working. I don't know if it was Verizon's fault, the NFL, Monday Night Football or whatever but maybe streaming technology isn't ready yet for prime time, I dunno.

I would have thought tonight's show would be replayed yet I just heard what sounded like a replay of an earlier Canadian call from an earlier show and then it jumped to some David Bowie channel and then I clicked it again and Hoagland came back on.
WTF ?

And here's what I think of tonight's news.

Game Over Man, GAME OVER!

YOU SHOULD! - some entertainment for us all =P

Well, there is a reason why he comforts me. I am going though a really rough and sad time right now and for some reason his shows hive me such a great sense of nostalgia of when I was 13, listening to his shows and feeling hope and wonder for the world. I've been abused and mistreated a lot since then and now I'm a little bit bitter. Arts shows takes me back.

Lol, don't tempt me.

Though it would be funny if a bunch of fans started knocking on his door at 3:00 AM demanding an explanation.
