Randy Quaid wants to open for Charlie Sheen's 'My Violent Torpedo of Truth' tour
Will Charlie Sheen and Randy Quaid, your two favorite stars of "Major League II," soon be reunited on stage? That's what Quaid suggested in the Globe and Mail on Monday. The Canadian newspaper reported that the troubled actor wants to open for the other troubled actor's "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option Show" tour during a stop in Quaid's current hometown, Vancouver.
"I think it'd be a hoot," said Quaid, who has claimed refugee status in Canada. (He's being sponsored by his Canadian wife Evi, who fled the U.S. with him because they think they're being hunted by a group of "Hollywood star-whackers" responsible for Heath Ledger's death. The couple also left a trail of legal troubles behind in the States. Yeah, we know: It's a long story.)
Quaid suggested that he could warm up the crowd by performing the two songs he debuted at Vancouver's Commodore Ballroom last month and will likely release though Maximum Music Group later this month. Yes, one of those songs is called "Star Whackers," and Quaid has generously offered to let Sheen sing backup on it.
Maximum Music Group presented the proposal last week to Live Nation, the concert promoter behind Sheen's tour, and claimed it was "favorably received."
But Sheen's team doesn't seem so receptive. A spokesman for the actor said there were no plans to have an opening act of any kind in Vancouver. Sigh. It's gonna be an awful long wait til "Major League IV: Star Whackers' Revenge."

I think it would be great, Randy is really funny, I liked him in the vacation movies. Just think, two Whacko's on the same stage, in the same night, lol. These two whack jobs could be hilarious together on stage!! Seriously, Sheen should jump on it, two guys that are going down and out, performing on the same stage, Too Funny!! People would not only laugh with them, but at them, LOL!

Just think of the whacko drugs back-stage.

Maybe they could get Gary Busey in the mix. Half measures availed us nothing, right Charlie?

I can't think of a thing to say.

Since Randy has burnt all his bridges in the States and is unlikely to find real employment in Canada...

So, instead of one loser you get two? No thanks.

Round it out with Lindsay Lohan, and I'll buy.

These two would just compliment each other, two peas in a pod, LOSERS
Sheen is just on the road with a one man drug habitual/boozing roadshow, and Quaid is already delusional so may as well team up with Sheen

@Robert
Now if we could just add Gary Busey, we could have the three stooges back.
