Ok. So I'm driving to Portland, Ore late at night and Coast to Coast Am is on the radio. Some dude says if you want an alien encounter you just call on them with your intent and they will show up. He then said there were the greys, the reptilians, big tall giant feline ones, and these hot ass blonde ones from the pleiades system. None of those weird ones sounded interesting but the hot blondes ones sure as hell did. I've been trying to get those hot blondes to show up but have had no luck so far.
Just more Gerber from Spamulus Flatulus.
This motherfucker is such a delusional idiot.
And yes, the only reason he is running his mouth right now is that he cannot stand the notion of the sistaz and Uncle Dave getting any press, certainly he cannot stand the thought they may actually record an album that will kickass.
He had his fucking chance. SEVERAL TIMES. And what happened? A buncha lame pop music by the King Klown Of Cheezeburgers.

"I don't see how Dave and Eddie can spend 15 seconds in a room together. That goes for Al, too. And I heard they don't, so I don't see them making a record."
Ummm...to make a record they don't have to spend a ton of time together.
Ed, Al and Wolfie could be in LA and Dave in NYC if they so desired. Maybe a few meetings between the two to hammer out song details, but other than that...eh.
In fact, it probably would be for the best. Maybe Dave figures that much like the mantra Penn and Teller have had for years is whats best at this point. IE, "We don't meet up or chat anywhere but when we're doing a show and that's why we've stuck together for all these years".
I will buy this book just as I did Dave's. Daves was Daves version of life as he knew it during his time in and out of VH. SAMs will be Sams version of life as he knew it during his time in and out of VH. I think we can all agree BOTH of these guys have untethered egos, and have experienced things we might be able to dream of. As is to be expected, big egos tell big stories and generally embellish them to make them bigger and more exciting, if taken with a grain of salt,it is easy to see thru some of the smoke while ignoring the mirrors. The tone of each book will be quite different. The underlying tone in Daves was, "I want to be in VH again", and as 1985 grew more distant in the rearview, Daves shadow seemed to grow smaller as well, becoming a punchline for late night comedians, playing "clubs" which were more like bars. I think the tone of Sams will be on it's surface disgust and anger bordering on hate which is thinly disguising disappointment. Eds unravelling was witnessed by all of us, his performance and appearance on his
last tour with each guy was embarrassing, arguing over which one saw him at his worst is ridiculous, people walked away from a lot of shows disenchanted. They were given a wide berth on the reunion tour, seeing Dave with ED was the bigger deal than how they sounded together. People here are pissed at Ed for pushing Dave out in the first place, pissed at Sammy for stepping in, pissed at the musical direction, all the while having NO IDEA how they would've sounded if Dave never left. Pissed at Ed for destroying his physical self, pissed at Mike for not taking sides and never saying an ill word about anyone. Who knows what kind of crap was throw his way from either side. Referring to him merely as "bass player" is an awesome way to treat someone from the original VH. This whole thing has played out like a volatile, disease ridden divorce. From the tone and venom of almost every entry on this site, from the "children" of this mess, it appears many are Affected. This is a dark, cynical, angry place, it is difficult to tell who is more dysfunctional and forever changed for the worst: the busted up jalopy that was once VH, or those willing to believe what they know is no longer there.

I suspect that guy has brain damage from years of sniffing rancid feet. Old timers here will understand what I mean by that........

Unchainme (03-08-2011)
That reminds me of being in Russia. We were up all night pounding vodka at dinner and after dinner. I hit that point where if you go further it's going to be bed spins and puking. The next morning I feel like hell and I make it out to breakfast and they have a fucking bottle of vodka on the breakfast table! Ed and Al would have fit in great there.Eddie is a good example. I'd be up all night drinking with him, and he'd wake up with the shakes and he'd need a drink to start off his day. He and his brother Al - Al was the same way. They'd wake up and they'd be crackin' beers and drinking vodka straight from the bottle at eight o'clock in the morning. I'd be like, 'Wow, what's wrong with you guys?'
I didn't know David Lee Roth was my daddy. He would have had to fuck my mom at age 9. Knowing Dave, he might have banged some MILFS at that age but I doubt one of them was my mom.From the tone and venom of almost every entry on this site, from the "children" of this mess, it appears many are Affected.
Like most people, Hagar is obviously telling his point of view from a perspective that makes him look better.
However, the things Hagar says about the possibility of ANY new Van Halen record (with Roth or anyone else)...well, it has been how long now? Dave's been back in the band since late 2006. It's now early 2001. That's four years +. One year was spent on touring. Three years and nothing new to show?
The shame of it is that Roth has seemingly followed the Van Halens down into the bunker-hunkering, hidey hole mode they've been in since 1999.
Maybe they are actually recording with Shanks right now.
Until something actually is released, all the speculation of a future Van Halen release is bunk. That's the attitude one needs to take when dealing with a band that is unreliable.

OT but did you know that Penn and Teller are worth $160 million? Each.
I love P&T but $320 million?
That's what happens when you don't fuck up your career in the mid eighties.
It's a good analogy because the Van Halens need to make like Teller, shut up and let the guy who is good at it do all the talking.

In this months issues the Red Racker has a little blurb about Van Halen. It's mostly bullshit about Ed being a freak in 2004. Spammy tells some pretty wild stories that if you think back explain Ed's behavior. He does beat on Dave a little but not much. quoting from memory: I guess Dave couldn't really sing that well. He had no range or rhythm. Of course he goes on to say how great he was basically. It was a pretty good read. The only thing in this issue worth reading so far.

The cover story of Snooki must be more intelligent and insightful by comparison.....

The "I'm a better singer" bullshit that's constantly pushed by Bette is fucking gay.
And there's more than being a good singer, than being a good front man to a rock n'roll band. Roth may have not been Freddie Mercury, but I always dug the way just exuded personality and how a rock singer should be. Dude truly "is the party".
Plus rock and roll is not supposed to be that good. It's an art medium for the socially rejected. It allows people to make good livings that the Julliard School of Music wouldn't give the time of day to. We aren't looking for world class opera singers. We are looking for someone who can take you for a ride up there.
"Starkist doesn't want tuna with good taste, Starkist wants tuna that tastes good."
BINGO.Better singer is entirely subjective.As i have said before, Hagar is a lil' higher on the register but Dave has way better mastery his voice.He owns the lower range and can get way up there as well.Hagar is also boring as fuck to watch on stage in his big bird yellow PJ's.Dave has STYLE baby

Here's the link to the latest Rolling Stone article (exerpts from Spam's book). I'm sorry if this has already been posted.

I really had my scat together. Eddie couldn't believe it. Dave apparently didn't have good rhythm and wasn't a great singer, didn't have any range
It's kind of pointless reading stuff from a guy who has told so many lies over the years but for what it's worth then it could be a long time before the album comes out.
Of course he doesn't give a reason why his vocal melodies and his lyrics were so fucking garbage if he had so long to work on them before going into the studio...We brought in producer Glen Ballard, who made Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill, a total pro who really tried to make things happen. We had [new songs] ready within one week. It took three months for Ed to do the guitar parts to three songs and a couple of solos. The Eddie Van Halen I first met could have done that in an hour. When they finally laid down the rhythm-guitar tracks, that was all I needed to sing. I didn't need his guitar solos. As soon as they got that, I went in and knocked out my vocals on all three songs in two hours. Mike came in and we did all the backgrounds in another two hours. Eddie was still asleep. By the time he came down, we were finished. They spent the next three months doing Eddie's guitars. from 'Why I'm so great' by Little Fat Sammy Hagar(c)2011

Goddam...Snooki is fucking HOT!
I am only posting this to make a point. Listen to how truely BAD the 2004 clip is. 'Why Can't Anyone Love Me' I think is the name of the song. Eddy was trashed.
Don't be fooled by photoshop....
