Former VH bassist Mark Stone has gone on record as still being out of Van Halen.

Fresh on the heels of other high-profile Van Halen revelations, Mark Stone called an impromptu press conference at the San Jose community gymnasium late Tuesday afternoon.

"I'm fucking bald and I could give a shit less. I was bald when I was born and I was bald when I wrote fucking Angel Eyes. That's right, I fucking wrote it....bald fuckers have huge brains, and that's why they got rid of me".

The former hard rock virtuoso also fielded questions about his book, "Runnin' From The Devil: Rock's Rowdiest Rogues Avoided Me".
