Bullshit.
I came here hoping to see a very PRO-Van Halen website...
Great idea...lmao...it's called the DAVID LEE ROTH ARMY for a reason...
It's disappointing that so many people diss Eddie Van Halen now, considering he is still the greatest rock guitarist.
Oh yeah, he's just fucking tearing it up these days...for the last ten years, he's been just the bestest guitarist ever...
Fuck, Dave Chandler could out solo him today...
I mean jesus christ he was in the smack middle of all the 80's rock! Created Eruption, started completely new trends of rock, and when he goes into public looking old ( BTW people he IS older now so get over it) you bomb him with as much as you can.
You're denying he looks like shit? Or it's OK for him to look like shit and tell the fans to fuck off on a consistant basis "since he was smack middle of all the '80's rock!"?
It just seems that for all the bashing you do on Sammy Hager for example, and all the defending you do for Dave, you are kinda being hypocrits by dissing the guy that made Van Halen what it is.
David made Van Halen what it is.
TO THIS DAY, he's 80% of the best things about it.
I know Roth fans beg to differ, but Van Halen went from late 70s to 90s... 2000 if you count the tour of failure...:-/....
Van Halen was a band between 1976 and 1985. That's it. Except for 1996, when they had a brief hurrah.
and Sammy took most the time so clearly dave wasn't the whole formula to Van halen.
BAAAAAAAAAAA
and neither was sammy , cause we all know if eddie dropped out of VH, they'd never be able to play half the songs they have with a different guitarist.
Why would they? They'd go on to other projects and other guitarists would play them just fine, it just wouldn't be called "Van Halen".
I'm just saying lay off the dude, no one knows if he's doin drugs or what
I do.
He is.
but it's called being a Rock Star.
I know...it's just that he's such a piece of shit when you compare him to a class act like David...
He worked hard to please you the fans,
So long as David was there to MAKE him work hard to please us, the fans.
and now when he takes his rest you don't give him any respect or thankfullness.
He doesn't deserve it. Nor does he deserve any fucking sympathy. So far as I'm concerned, he's made his bed and he can rot in it. If DLR/VH ever happens, I'll be there with bells on, but Ed, Al and Mike can CONTINUE to suck my wiener.
Let him be...
No.
Dave done his fair share of bad deeds, but it seems that since Eddie ended up without a radio show he doesn't deserve to be treated with respect you as fans owe him..
Eddie doesn't deserve any respect. He pissed away whatever he was owed, so far as I'm concerned.
No Eddie=No Van Halen= No Website for DLR.
Bullshit.
and if you deny that than you truly are blind.
If you believe that, you truly are going BAAAA BAAA BAAA BAAAA.
Take a look at this from a neutral standpoint between van halen-eddie-sammy-roth-etc. Without Eddie it is all nothing.
Again, bullshit. To mainstream America (and let's face it, worldwide), Van Halen is that blonde singer...uh....David whatshisname...
Oh yeah David Lee Roth IS way better than Sammy , Sammy got a rock voice,
Sammy got NO voice.
but I've seen live Roth and Sammy, and Roth is a crowd pleaser 200% ,
Smartest thing you've said yet.
so don't smash me on my singer preference cuz that's it.
BAAAAA by a different color is still BAAAAAA.
