Eddie Van Halen ---> Final Meltdown in Arizona--->November 19, 2004.

I doubt he'll get help at this stage in the game. I think he's made up his mind that THIS is MY life amd THIS is HOW I choose to life it, if you don't like it, FUCK you.

...And in the end, it will only be the two who dreamt to be rock-n-roll stars left: Eddie and Alex. Everyone else around them - family, friends - will be gone. The crowds will be gone. That's why EVH needs to take some time off and get it together now.

And since the blow-up in AZ, who could be left to carry the torch? A fourth VH singer would not make sense, or sell for that matter. It only figures to come full circle back to DD

[Fabulous Shadow]

Got to agree but do you really think Dave should go near this mess? I wouldn't.

Edward Van Halen is a shitty human being!!!!

[aesop]

If the stars, moon, and planets all alligned just right, Dave was left alone to be Dave, and Sir Eddie could stay off the stupid juice, then maybe, just maybe there could be a Monsters of Rock 2006.

Dave!!!!

WE LOVE YOU BABY!!!!!!

Stay FAR AWAY from these assholes!!!!!

aesop... I want this so bad I can taste it... Like a Hostess Lemon Pie kind of thing, but the fact is, Ed isn't changing and he isn't good for no one. MAYBE they could record some songs and this time Ed could work in solitary. Trust me, I love Ed, but I am also married and seperated from someone just like him. I know that patterns, behaviours and selfishness... It isn't pretty. You love um, but you can't change um. You have to walk away and save yourdself.

[aesop]

Well, you're right. I'm up 'working' late and not thinking straight, no doubt. The phrase "Be careful of what you wish for" seems to be coming to mind...

LOL I'm more of a kRISPY kREME kinda guy (if questioned at gunpoint), but I get the jist. :P

Yea I can relate, too. My dad was one of 'em.

[Fabulous Shadow]

I dont like Krispy Kremes or Lemon Pies.. It was kind of a joke... Lets see... I'll take a nice warm chocolate chip cookie and a cold glass of milk!

[aesop]

I'll take some fresh Brie and a glass of Pino Noir.

Well, I may be wrong but I thought that Dave left VH didn't he? I mean, I've never really been clear on wether he left or was fired???

He probably quit. My 'abandoning' reference was aimed at the way Eddie, Alex and Mike abandoned the essence of what Van Halen was all about, for something VERY different. They also had a closeness with their fans that's been missing for many years now.

If he wants to get straight, good for him, but I don't think it's gonna happen anytime in the near future. Oh well.

I think it's a case of Dead Man Walking here.I don't think he'll pull out of this unfortunately.

In the "Sam and Dave" VH1 special, Dave said that the last 3 months of Van Halen weren't enjoyable so "I bailed in true American fashion."

It's no accident that Dave's weed bust, EMT gig, "Sopranos" appearance, and home intruder stories have made international news while this joke of a 'reunion' tour faded off into obscurity. The "Group Formerly Known As Van Halen" is irrelevent; David Lee Roth isn't.


EAT 'EM AND SMILE, DAVY BABY!!!!!!

Switch, tell me about the intruder stuff! I never heard about this before!
