Obviously a lot of people care; I mean, considering Mike's being there or not is a pretty hotly debated issue in regards to supporting this possible Van Halen endeavor.

The battle is raging, both here at the Army and in other places....

Not paying a lot of attention, are you?

**bueno bob** · 12-17-2006, 09:10 AM

Furthermore, I'm getting pretty fucking fed up of these assfucks who think that the bass isn't an important, integral part of any rock band.

Go listen to Metallica's "And Justice for All" and see how much damage lack of bass can do to your sound and then tell me how unimportant bass is.

Keyboards in thrash metal? That's unessential.

Bass in rock? You'd better get it.

To those people who think otherwise - you're fucking idiots. Go stick your head in the oven and turn it up.

By the way, happy birthday.

**PHOENIX** · 12-17-2006, 10:53 AM

I really doent care if Mikes not there. I share the same view as the fans who dont hang out on these and other forums. Its all about Dave and Eddie up on stage together.

Nobody cares that Bill Wyman is not playing bass with the Rolling Stones anymore. It shouldnt be an issue here.

Everybody says that Mikes background are essential to the Van Halen sound. Pleeze!

We've all been loyal Roth fans and went to his solo shows all these years. Those Mikey background vocals have been absent from Roths performance for years. I dont see why the reunion tour without Mike wouldnt be as good as any solo Roth show.

Bill Wyman never had any stage presence whatsoever.
A fucking hatstand could have done his job.

I'll go only if 100% of VH is there.

I'm a diehard fan, not a sucker. I stopped paying for cheap reunions when I got tired of KISS.

...which makes me wonder what sort of lineup change Ed will try next...

I think that's exactly the reason so many of us are pissy about this...Van Halen's essentially turning into Kiss...with Ed and Al turning into Gene and Paul...

Lot of parallels can be drawn as of late.

If Ed and Dave want to make new music together, I'll be interested in the result, regardless of who plays bass and drums.

If Ed, Dave and Al are gonna go out on the road flogging the oldies billed as Van Halen, Mike should be up there with them. Anything less than all four going out under that name is maybe slightly less disingenuous because of Roth's participation, but really doesn't amount to much more than Van Hagar or Van Halen 3 for me. It's pretty much the same, really: a close-to-authentic Van Halen tribute band made more legitimate by varying degrees of real band member participation.

Mike was a part of CVH. He was a part of the lineup and part of the sound. Not part of the Roth/EVH nucleus, to be sure, but still a part. And all his hot-sauce shilling and Hagar cocksucking will never erase that fact, just as EVH going on autopilot post-1985 took away from what he did from 1978 to 1984 when he was hungry.

If they hit the road with Wolfie, I hope those that go see them have a good time. I'm just not interested in pieces of CVH.

All or nothing. That's what many of us said regarding a Rothless Van Halen. The same should be extended to Anthony.

Plus, who the fuck would they possibly get besides MA who would be capable of even THINKING about playing the RWTD intro, much less doing it?

**vanhalendlrband** · 12-17-2006, 03:55 PM

It sucks without Mike, but Mike made the choice when he decided to go tour with Spammy against the wishes of the band. I believe it really sucks, I hope the band can still have those signature background vocals; which at this point I doubt.
I would really love to see Dave with Eddie, as i've never gotten to see them with Dave. Dave and VH with wolfgang on bass, as much as it suck there is no mike, I think will bring a comeback for Van Halen that will make Aerosmith wish they hadn't soldout boys.

Dave, c'mon man, get up there and sing for us man. This is what we've all been waiting for since '86, except the untimely departure of Mike, but honestly, that will only affect the' band so much. If i had to choose between Mike and Dave, i choose Dave.

Plus, like someone mentioned above, butchering all those Dave era songs for Spammy's pleasure, did not help his cause either. The seemingly innocent Micheal Anthony choose a side we'd thought he'd never choose, but he did.

I want a fucking album btw, way way way more then a tour. And not just any album, i want it to be the best Van Halen album ever, for real.

Look its not fucking 1982 anymore. This reunion tour will pretty much sound like Roths recent tours. But instead he will have Eddie up on stage with him.

I really dont care about Micheal Anthony at all. Just him being buddies with Sammy says it all.

Also i'm a moderator here because i'm a David Lee Roth fan!

This is the David Lee Roth Army.

But David Lee Roth isn't Van Halen.

Dave's a part of Van Halen.

A far more important part of Van Halen than Mike Anthony was, IMO, but Dave isn't even close to the whole ball of wax far as comprising CVH goes.

Yes, Mike is friends with Hagar, but he should still be there when Dave and the sisters hit the road.

I will agree that I can't imagine a reunited CVH now sounding all that much better than what Roth has been doing solo-wise live these days. I was thinking the same thing last time I saw Dave at the Hard Rock this summer. His live band COOKS! And there's no 15 minute guitar solos, or drum solos or bass solos distracting and eating up concert time that could be put to better use playing more songs, either. I've heard what Sped did in 2004, and it was pretty subpar.

**Nickdfresh** · 12-17-2006, 06:56 PM

Boy, this new and ground breaking thread has hardly been discussed...

And not only does Anthony need to be there, but this needs to be an actual reunion with the resumption of the band and not just some one-off, toss-off cash grab tour, or else just don't fukking bother man...

Exactly!

The primest of the prime examples of the essential of a bass player necessary for the integrity of a band is the Beatles.

What was he supose to do wait for Eddie to get sane? If you worked to a company for 25 years that just shut down for a few years and you went to work for a competitor for a few months because you were board you would not be pissed if your original company, which was your lifes work, would not hire you back. Fucking bullshit. Eddie is a jealous prick and he has lead guitarist disease.

I'd have to imagine Anthony must have some resentment at being shut out of Van Halen after all those years of loyalty, but then again who really knows with 100% certainty WHAT really went down with all of those guys over the years on a personal level? Even the business dealings are kinda hazy...

WOW!!!!! I've been a fan since '78! I was 8 years old!

You know what?

WHO CARES??????????????

**binnie** · 12-18-2006, 06:44 AM

I care.

CVH was four people. Mike was one of them.

I for one can't imagine the CVH sound without his backing vocals.

I'll go and see them with Wolfie because 75% is better than Jack shit, but I'll definately miss Mike....

**katie** · 12-18-2006, 05:31 PM

Hey Binnie!

You can't go you would get arrested being the number one wanted man in the world!

You know, I'm at such cross purposes, here...seriously, I just don't know what to think anymore...I'm excited at the prospects of a Roth fronted Van Halen again, but dejected by the potential lack of Michael Anthony involvement...

Do I go or stay?

Honestly, I think it's all coming down to the flip of a coin, because every day I change my mind...

**Wawazat** · 12-19-2006, 03:53 AM

As for a Roth fronted Van Halen tour, let it reach Europe i'll be there.

If a Roth fronted Van Halen reunion brings new music or unreleased stuff i'll buy it.

**bueno bob** · 12-19-2006, 07:56 AM

Can I just see some boobies?

Honestly, that's all I really want from rock concerts these days. Boobs all over, everywhere, shirts flying free and removed.

What greatness!

Surely the chance to see Roth and Eddie on stage is enough to make it worth going to?

I think it is essential to have Mike there. We all want Van Halen back. DLR is going to make his long awaited return as front man and that just flat out kicks ass! However, I don't think it's going to sound right without Mike singing back up vocals. Who the hell else are they going to get to do it? Wolfie? Not going to sound right! ( I am all for Wolfgang participating)

Listen to Mike on your albums. He is part of the essence of VH. He is essential to a successful reunion.

DAVE MIKE ALEX ED=VH

Now, hopefully PHOENIX will not blast me off the board for preaching the Bass Player.

DLR IS BACK, bitches!
