Brett, vhlinks emperor, sheds some light on VH/Eddie situation
What is this shit, a soap opera named "All My Van Halens"?
Let's cut the bullshit. I don't care what Val says. I don't care what so & so says. I don't care what secretive BS & approved info the VH camp puts out
The fact of the matter is VH announced to the world they were on tour. People spent tons of their hard earned money to see them. And now they're fucking them
Eddie is a mental midget, a drunk, a drug addict. They had no right to announce a tour when they knew they probably couldn't fufill their obligations
I don't blame Roth, I blame the VH's & their fucked up management
All this "poor Eddie" & "I hope he gets well" BS is just that, bullshit
Face it folks, Eddie ain't going to get better. He's a complete & total idiot & fuck up
I don't give a shit about this ongoing soap opera consisting of multi-millionaire prima donna's & their ongoing excuses about why Eddie can't perform
These cocksuckers have no idea what it means to get out of bed every morning & go to work. They have no idea what work really is
Poor Eddie Van Halen, his monitor isn't loud enough or his guitar wasn't tuned properley, so let's fly into an alcohol fueled rage. Let's go beserk & act like the spoiled fuck you are
You people can play this game & speculate all you want about what's happening
I know what's happening. Eddie doesn't have the mental capacity to run a band. He never has. He needed Roth to run things in the old days & he needed Spammy to do the same
Then, like the mental freak he is, he gets mad, gets fucked up & the whole thing explodes
All I know is I have tickets to a show that will propably never happen
Eddie, Alex & their management knew Eddie's a walking time bomb. Professionals don't do this. After the fans spent millions on tickets, travel & hotels, Eddie decides he wants to go home
Eddie's in rhab. He's getting medical help. He's burned out. BS, I'm not buying any of it
He's a drug & alcohol addicted freak with the brain capacity of a child
If Van Halen had any integrity, this is how their press release would read..
"Eddie Van Halen is a fucktard. He's an idiot that we can't depend on. We're sorry we led the fans on"

great post, newbie...that pretty much sums it up!
Roth Army Icon First official owner of ADKOT (Deluxe Version)
KUDOS to WhoCares? - Thanks for putting me in-check w/my previous posts....I was having sympathy there for a minute and you're absolutely right.
I also spent $$ on the '07 tour to see them 5x and had to cancel plans for airline/hotel reservations for 2 upcoming gigs...and there are always "cancellation fees" that I have to eat. (And this story is not unique....so many other fans, as you've pointed out, are going thru the same scenario.)
I gave the Tiger Woods gig a thought....but after thinking about it, is it really worth going thru the trouble to attend, even if it's the last gig they play???
"They said you left 'to be a movie star' – they told me something like, 'with Dave, we were a Model T, but with Sammy, we're gonna be an SST.' What surprised me most was, when I talked to you guys six years ago or so, there seemed to be some camaraderie between you all that some of the band members now seem to be denying. I thought that might've hurt you, personally – hurt your feelings.
--Well, you know, the guys go on about how they were so miserable for these past 10, 12 years, the music was substandard, now they're gonna go on and everything is just wonderful, and they hated it for the last 12 years...Poor Edward Van Halen – forced to live a lie! Struggling to survive the onslaught of Masaratis! Forced to survive Lamborghini after Lamborghini! Can you imagine the mental stress the poor kid must be feeling?"

More than you can say about the current tour with David Gay Roth, huh Bueno Boob?
Yeah, but if you don't give two shits about the band unless Roth is in it, who really cares about what happened in 2004?
They should have done the first leg and then taken 6 months off....playing every other night when your in your fifties has to take its toll drunk or not...luckily, they hit Chicago at the beginning, and played great i guess i was one of the lucky ones to see them early in the tour..hell, wait until next fall if need be and start over...

GREAT POST!
The sad thing is there are people at that site with literally 10s of thousands of posts who have analysed every aspect of this fucked up band for 20 years saying 'Oh thank you for these scraps of information' or 'God Bless Eddie I really hope he somehow can manage to somehow manage to play for us again' or 'I miss Sammy'.
Fanboy dumb as shit ex failed jock gulllible sub Al Bundy lifestyle mediocre PTA committee member fuckwits.
It's understandable from 13 year old girls masturbating to the latest Simon Cowell boyband creation but these people are on the wrong side of 35 for fuck sake.
Jesus suffering cunt!
It makes me feel like a sad prick even knowing they exist.

I'm sorry...and you are...? :confused:
Just trying to get to know you better before I own your ass into the dirt.
my 2 cents is either he's suffering from tinnitus like Pete Townshend and it's throwing his hearing and equlibrium off and makes him appear to be intoxicated.
Or the hand issue could also be a scenario.
I noticed this by watching old clips when he picks, the torque on his wrist was like lightning and he held the pick between his thumb and index finger now he's downstroking all his notes in his solos.
Age just seems to be catching up to Ed so I just wish him the best and hope to see the band back out and kicking ass again in April.
