Hagar is not performing Dave's songs on tour, yet they are using his
songs to promote the tour ? False advertising at its worst. Dave should Sue their asses off. What the fuck is going on there ??

Well if anything Dave should be looking into suing WB for distributing this bullshit. Or whomever is in control of the marketing and advertising. Im guessing Warner though. The tough sell in all of this is, Warner may own exclusive rights now on most of the classics. Usage with some control. Bet then again, everytime they(VH, Warner) use a Dave song, they are inadvertently selling Dave. Im sure Dave is laughing two fold. 1) This band he used to belong to is so crappy, they cant even use their own songs to promote their own tour, because even they know their shit sucks and 2) Dave might be looking at a royalty pay if BOV2 has any Dave material on it. Plus, them playing his songs to promote, probably intices some people to purchase the classics, which in turn puts $ in Daves pocket.
Either way Dave is making some doe, and Van Hagar is doing all the work. I think its great. And if there are any sell outs, we will all know deep down inside, the Dave songs they used to promote this "reunion" are partially responsible for any high attendance. Dig?
"FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKIN' BITCH! WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ANYWAYS? TALK TO ME LIKE THAT? FUCK YOU. DRAG QUEEN LOOKIN' WHORE- YOU AINT SHIT. YOUR THE FRECKLE TO THE LEFT OF MY BROWN EYE. NOW GO MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL...OH, PUT DAD ON THE PHONE"
this isnt the first time! didnt they do this with cherone ? promoting dave era stuff ?
"I've been rich and I've been poor....rich is better, totally better"
Dave can't do shit guys. It's also Ed's, Al's, and Mike's songs. It's Van Halen music. It's not Dave's sole property.

no, but they are using property that all 4 were involved with and that doesnt include sammy. it just shows they have no balls to stand on their own.
if ed hates dave so much and wants to forget that music and not be a nostalgia act then why is he doing just that by promoting dave when hes not in the band ?
admit it doesnt make much sense. its false advertising. dave wont be there!
Even Ed knows there music sucks!! He must promote Dave to sell tickets
These radio stations crack me up! I don't know what station I was listening too, and I heard: "This is a Van Halen Weekend", then a Phil Collins Song comes on.....LOL
Bottom line is, no one recognizes Van Hagar songs except Sammy lovers, of whom there are few. Everyone recognizes Van Halen songs.

Hey EVH fanatic:
What is this BS: "Edward Van Halen is the best guitarist ever, period. End of fucking story."
What a joke!
EVH was (1978-1984) one of the greatest songwriters ever, but there are many guitar players that put him to shame including Yngwie Malmsteen, Uli Jon Roth, Al Di Meola, John Sykes, etc.
I guess he can sue them for this too. Can Dave sue?

Yngwie, Uli, Di Meola, and Sykes can all put Ed to shame. Especially nowadays.
What if Dave came back tomorrow (I wish) would Ed be better then?Originally posted by dave_is_vh

Of course. He would be the best!
The rights of the Dave/VH songs used for promotional, are maybe owned by Van Halen as a band not only by Dave alone, and can be use as well, btw Dave should see ca$h coming in his pocket.
The real problem is the people who will go to the show with hope to enjoy this songs because they heard it on radio.
->->->DON'T GO!!!<-<-<-
In the same time, it promotes the Dave/VH era, maybe with positive consequences...
It's absoulte bullshit and the truth of the matter is that Ed is behind it all. Everybody bends over for Ed.Originally posted by Panamark

They are not actively stating that Dave songs wont be performed. We know they wont, but we are not the mass majority. Yet these fuckers are playing Dave songs at every chance to promote Spammy ?? Joe Average will either think
a: The Real Reunion is happening
b: Spammy is going to sing Dave tunes.
Both which are wrong. Surely Dave could slog em for deceptive advertizing. Once again, how embarrassing is it to be a Hagar fan ? They dont even use his material to promote his concerts ?? They cant sell out shows ??
Have you noticed the invading Spamsters have been a little quieter of late ?
BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
Love ya Mary Frances!
LOL... Dave's songs. Let's see he's 25% of the equation and the other 75% are continuing using music they created... Now to see the fallacy here... what would you professors be saying if Ed, Al & Mike sued Dave for performing 90% of their songs on his last 3 years of touring???
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
You don't really believe that Michael Anthony and Alex Van Halen were prominent in the songwriting process do you? They performed it but they probably had VERY LITTLE to do with writing it. Granted it's Dave saying it, but he has said that he wrote "half of every classic Van Halen song you hear, sometimes more."
Farken oath they are Dave's songs. Take away the backing music,Originally posted by ZahZoo

and the song remains. And that is all Daves.. The vocal and melody is what mainly defines a song. I would argue that 90% of these songs were Dave. The other 10% was some nice backing guitar work by EVH.
But take away the guitar, and its still the vocal and melody that maketh the song.
For fucks sake ZahZoo, are you a Spammy fan ?? How embarrassing it must be for you ? They are using Dave singing to promote a Sammy tour ?? Man...... Are they that ashamed of the Van Hagar catalog ?? You explain this to me ??
I fully agree with you Panamark!
zahzoo: the difference is you cant sue over perfoming songs live. anyone or any group can sing any song they would like live. thats the difference.
is dave promoting sammy songs when out on the live scene ? nope!
see VH knows they are shit without dave and sammy does not generate any excitement over this get together( not a reunion) I have seen the forums and people (sammy fans are happy) but if it were dave, this site would crash as well as any other site and there would be a buzz at the water coolers!

Of which they are fully aware, and are *attempting* to capatilize on in the most underhanded, sneaky and outright fraudulent of ways.
Roth should sue. They are attempting to sell tickets on his work. It is fraud, plain and simple.
Piss on you Eddie Van Halen. Piss on you.
