2004 Dave continues to TOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**WARF** · 03-26-2004, 01:27 AM

2005 EAT EM AND SMILE REUNION!!!!

**Chaz Rock City** · 03-26-2004, 03:50 AM

Dave back with the Eat'em and Smile line-up be killer. I hear Billy Sheenan could use the money, he blew all his on scienentology

**KungFuMonKey** · 03-26-2004, 05:50 AM

I think alot of us on this board has layed in bed at night wondering...why hasn't Dave got the Eatem and Smile band back 2gether. Look at all the old interview vids..everyone was happy and glad to be there. It cannot be a money issue as Steve Vai has shedded all his material symbolic wealth. Wouldn't it be a suprise if a Eatem and Smile reunion outsold a Van Hagar reunion? I believe it would..even though they may have to play for a few more months.

**SilvioDante** · 03-26-2004, 09:38 AM

I am convinced a EEAS tour would out sell Van Hagar. I think the boys have misread how pissed off a lot of people really are!!

**degüello** · 03-26-2004, 10:05 AM

I like the EEAS album, it's by far the strongest solo material Dave ever put out. Really, he never reached those heights again.

But the EEAS band sounded like shit playing classic VH tunes live. There ain't a single version of any old song that sounds any good. I can't listen to any of it and enjoy myself.

I thnk you all need to sit back and think about

ED has done nothing but Fuckin drink and make crap music with SPAM!

You have got to be the dumbest fuck on this board.... Lets see here....

1986 Van halen releases 5150, it becomes the first Van halen album to Reach #1 and spawns 5 Hits.

1988 Van Halen release thier 2nd #1 album OU812 and headlines The Monsters Of Rock at Stadiums across the nation and then tours on its own and sells out multiple nights in Japan at arenas that hold 40,000+

1990 Van Halen opens night club in Cabo San Lucas

1991 Van halen releases For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, An album that wins hard rock best album of the year from Billboard, American Music Awards, and the Grammy.

1992- The Video for Right Now wins 3 awards at the MTV awards including best vid of the year.

Ed also reelease his own line of guitars by Ernie Ball-- The Music Man.

1993- VH release a double live album that eventually sells 2.5 million copies and tours the world over.

In contrary to what you have, dlr gets arrested for buying weed off a cop.

1995- Balance is released and becomes the fastest album ever to sell 2 million copies. Also it hits #1 on the Billboard charts knocking Garth BRooks off.

now in contrary to what you say, in 1995, dlr vegas show got cancelled after it got panned by critics and didnt sell any tickets.

We all know what happens next, and do i need to comment?

well in 98 VH3 flops, but still sells more than 550,000 copies, which dlr could not achieve as his album sells just over 50,000. they both tour. But DLR tours opening for Bad Company----bwhaaaaaa.

in 2000 you say dave wastes time with vh, Probably the other way around they way that panned out.

in 2001-2002, dave tours as a van halen rip off band backs him up and even calls Sammy to go on the road with him. Not the other way around.

in 03 dave releases BBq video, which ahs not musical or artistic merit whasoever, and til this day, no one understands why?

in 03 He releases an album of steve miller, beatles, and lounge covers. it sells barely 6,500 copies. But hey, its being released in Europe, so maybe that will be big there....right.

In 04 Van halen regroups w/ Sammy, is hitting the road, and dlr is on the sopranos. He left Van Halen to be a movie star, but really a cameo is what he got.

FACT, FACT, and one more time....FACT on all accounts.

Yeah, but if they got back together for a new album, they'd have 3 albums worth of material to pull from for a tour. I think Dave would probably hit some highlight VH tunes, but he wouldn't need to base the entire tour off of the VH catalog.

I for one hope he calls Vai and Sheehan. And I think if it's better than Skyscraper, it'll out sell VanHagar.

Itll outseel Van Hagar, how the fuck can you be so dumb? I dont get it? It never outsold Van Hagar jackass.

**phildogger** · 03-26-2004, 01:35 PM

It jealousy of Sammy and the Boys. IMHO. Dave was great, I loved his VH and early solo stuff. But he is now a joke. Awesome to Annoying in 10 easy years, its the "DLR workout!"

I think your missing the point here. dave has continued on and did what he wanted to do. Not what the record co. told him to do.
And you want facts? Check the album sales of each of those that Spermmy is on. 5150 was high sales, and every album slipped after that. Album by album...down...down...down...5150 was living off the excited of a new singer, and thats why sales were high. Once everyone heard 5150, every other album by VH sucked donkey balls in sales, and for good reason.

and notice how not one person will comment who is pro dave, where are you rothtards now? prove me wrong... I beg you.
