    The 1996 Limo Ride

    I know Dave states briefly in his book about that famous 1996 limo ride to the mtv awards. Dave in that limo is like a person being fed to the sharks!! I wonder what the four were saying and thinking that whole ride??(besides eddie whining about missing his kid first day of school)

    Mike was probably thinking about how much he was mising Sam.

    EVH & AVH are a couple of worthless pole-smokers. their thoughts were probably about how much MORE money they could screw DAVE outta.

    FUCK 'EM!!!

    I agree.

    Ya know, even if they WERE to have a Reunion Tour with Dave, I am not sure I would even go.

    Back in the days B.S. (Before Spammy), they were like lightning in a bottle. They were out to blow everyone away. No holds barred, take no prisoners.

    If they were to do a reunion tour now, it would be strictly for a cash grab.
    Not only that, even if they did book a tour, it would be a complete and utter miracle if they even made it to the opening night without The Sisterz FUCKING EVERYTHING UP!

    With Dave they were great!

    With Spammy they became lame.

    Then with Gary Cherone, they sucked total donkey balls.

    No with nobody, they are worthless and less than zero.

    Ed is on a reunion tour with the nearest immigrant liquor store. Who knows what Alex is doing.....drinking like a fish and practicing his wife-beating maneuvers, perhaps?

    It all adds up to the same thing....we are just left with fond memories of the Greatness That WAS....

    I remember that part of Dave's book.

    Funny because I can imagine Ed and Al getting bitching and moaning on the limo ride there as Mike just sat silent.

    From what I remember, Ed was being a total dick to everyone, especially Dave, then he got momentarily-nice when he asked Dave if Dave had a $50 cigar to give him. Not that $50 means anything to Ed or Dave, but still, a prick is a prick.

    When I read that whole chapter "Reunion Blues", I felt very sorry for Dave.

    He was fucked bigtime by the brothers and their manager.

    Dude, he bummed one off of me after I interviewed Sam in 95!!!

    Holy shit, for a guy that smokes as much as he does, you would think he'd have a carton on him at all times.

    I've heard he's cutting back though. Now he only goes through about 2 lighters a day.

    Betcha that limo ride was part 1 a wake-up call to Dave, shaking him out of his own denial throughout that summer that the Van Halens weren't bullshitting him about having a future with the band beyond the greatest hits tracks. Part 2 was the limo ride back to the hotel from the MVAs. By then he came to the realization that he was gonna get fucked over in terms of touring with the band in 1996/1997.

    Yeah, and this is probably what they were thinking in their head:

    ("I missed Wolfie's first day of school!"-Eddie)

    ("Who was that chick that just walked by?" - Dave)

    ("Oh oh, there goes my neck again." - Alex)

    ("I miss Sam." - Mike)

    Point??? The truth of the matter is that Sammy is a better performer/singer. Yes the Roth era tunes do kick ass (for their time) however Sammy era stuff is also up there in terms of quality. Like CLV, some Sammy era songs suck (i.e AFU) however the same can be said for CLV (ever listen to Diver Down and you will see my point)!!

    Man, such wit and style.

    So why was the '04 tour such a failure then, anyway? Why were there only two sell-outs or something and tons of shows way below half-capacity? Any answers, idiot? I had a couple of friends that actually went, and they said it was pretty pathetic.
