Come on, don't get your panties in a bunch. We're not talking Mr. Canned Meat here. We talking about a band that...as far as bands that were heavily influenced by VH go...were probably the best.

Rest in Peace, Am I Ever Gonna Change, Warheads, Hole Hearted,...melodramatic or overly "faithy" lyrics aside, those are some bad-ass guitar songs with fun surging choruses.

What the hell, even if they don't open for VH I'd probably go to pay see em' at the local 1500 seat cantina if tickets are in the 20-30 dollar range.

No, no and no.

Nuno is a great player, laid down some awesome riffs, but that band is just too clean cut and nice to open for Van Halen. They could open for Bon Jovi though.....

**binnie** · 11-28-2007, 05:03 PM

Sorry dude but I thought that Hole Hearted was a piece of shit song. Right up there with "In the Heart of the Young" by Winger....

**LoungeMachine** · 11-28-2007, 05:08 PM

You don't bring that one-night stand you banged after being drunker than shit with you when you dine out with your #1

Who wants to be reminded of that mistake on a nightly basis?

I'm sorry, but that whole "tard barn" idea is looking pretty good about now.

Look man, I just ate and now my belly hurts after reading the above question.

steve owes me $35 for spoiling what was a great take out meal!

HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!

Stay at home Cherone

**Nickdfresh** · 11-28-2007, 05:31 PM

Steve, having you been cracking out in Arlington again?

**LoungeMachine** · 11-28-2007, 05:36 PM

We should have a "Please Delete My Last Thread" option...

You just know steve is even kicking his own ass right now....

[ go with Nick's "I was on the crack" excuse, dude.]

**Nickdfresh** · 11-28-2007, 05:41 PM

Butt not Gary Cherone's, "I was fingering my crack on stage, OH! "The Fire in the HOOOLLLEEE!!"™ by Van HalenIII LLC

Van Halen opened for Bon Jovi a few years back.
Another stellar career move from spams old manager (RIP)

spED could hire the corpse of Kevin Dubrow, and his girlfriend's gynecologist to play bass, and he'd still call it Van Halen.

*tickles*

oh, and Al would go along, of course....

**Matt White** · 11-28-2007, 06:33 PM

Ahhhhhh...Shemp.....

forever doomed to bask in the fame & talent of his younger brother....

Crackin out???
Delete the thread!?!@?!??!

Hell no, I'm rockin' out to Play With Me and watching Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. So nobody accuse me of having an acute flare-up of Down's syndrome, I know what's I'm doing.

By the way, anyone else pleasure yourself to that crazy Puerto-Rican whore that cheated in the bueaty pagent yet? Swindle the judges or not, IQ of 85 or bust...that tall-drink of Cervesa is mental-note/save it for later material. I love my wife.

What, Puerto Rico's not next to Mexico? What were we talking about again?

NUNO ROCKS!!!
Republican debate, complete with psycho Ron Paul, coming up next.

(ha! someone else voted yes!

Time to burn this forum to the GROUND)

**rustoffa** · 11-28-2007, 08:52 PM

Most people going to see the show could probably care less who is opening. Maybe they'd care more if it was some major act or something. From my estimation, the tour is shrouded in secrecy and loathing. If my estimation is anywhere near somewhat correct, having a major act opening is WAY off limits. That being said, Extreme isn't a major act, and it'd be funny to see beers, nachos, or whatever thrown towards the stage. In a perfect scenario, Gary would drape himself across the edge of a monitor after more than words.....like, after crying. Barbituated out of his mind, he's just left there.

Like an hour later, Wolfie does a bass solo....then jumps up and down on the frakenbass after he lays it on Gary!!!
:eek:

**DLRdelight!** · 11-28-2007, 08:58 PM

no!!!!!!!!!

**bueno bob** · 11-29-2007, 01:39 AM

Absolutely. Fuck yes. And twice on Sundays.

So long as they do an Extremed version of Without You.

And Eddie comes out to play guitar on it.

Maybe David can sing backup.

And Wolf can play bass, too.

Then they can all do a rendition of Dreams acoustic.

The big surprise will be when Sammy and Mike come out to jam with them.

Then Van Halen's all one big happy family.

Yes, yes, and yes. Make the circle complete.

DO IT.

Probably not as painful as listening to "Three Sides to Every story.."

And AL would believe him as well

*gentle spanking*

**steve** · 11-29-2007, 02:02 PM

Holy SHIT!
the poll is
evenly SPLIT.

Never would'a thunk it.

Come out of the woodwork, folks. No need to be ashamed.

**TongueNGroove** · 11-29-2007, 05:31 PM

Nuno is a better guitar player than Ed ever was and in the shape Ed is in today no way he would let Nuno or any guitar player show him up. That is why they have some funky band opening for them.

While you're at it, add "The Other Half" to the bill....

Now that would just make it a freak show. Might as well add Scott and Drew Peterson performing as "Nelson" if you do that.

"I
talked to the guitarist [Nuno Bettoncort] about a week ago, and I think,
eventually, the inevitable will happen… It definitely won’t be
rockers with walkers. Getting onstage and singing Hole Hearted
- let me
tell you how difficult that isn’t going to be."
