Does anyone care about Van Halen's new album?

[sadaist]

If no one cares about a new Van Halen album, why did this guy write a long piece about it? If he truly believes what he is saying, surely he assumed even less people would read his article.

No one cares that I stubbed my toe.

They will care even less about the thread I will write about it.

How did they screw up the Guitar hero release? Did I miss something?

guy makes a couple valid points - lots of time has passed .. will people care ?

Did people expect Death Magnetic to be more than St. Anger .. probably not .. but it was damn good..

stones bigger bang was good - it was a thud of a release .. went no where

new journey ? - Malaysian singer kinda makes it a so what ..



New VH CD???- well VH & DLR tour sold out mighty quick .. is there pent up demand - you betcha ..

.. and 1/2 of VH is Eddie and his guitar - if Ed is en fuego so too is the CD - if Ed pussifies his playing ... it will be a who cares imho

up for breakfast / Me wise Magic = who cares .. but TOUR!!!!!!!!!! tour ! tour !!!!!!!!! TOUR!

I'm uncertain how the guy meant the reference to Guitar Hero. Was he saying the band "blew it" by limiting the song selection to the CVH era, or was he implying that the group should have waited and tied the new album to the game? Either way, it doesn't matter as Activision is currently revamping the franchise, so a new platform and games will be flooding the market soon. Van Halen will certainly have another opportunity to join in on the fun.

What are you talking about?

There is a Guitar Hero - Van Halen...and it's available for all game platforms. I own it for PS3...and I actually got it for free packaged with another game.

However, they didn't capitalize on it. There was nothing on the VH website, no publicity, no NOTHING from anyone in the band. In fact, the only real publicity they got surrounding the whole thing was largely negative, based on their ongoing hissy fit involving Michael Anthony.

The VH boys opted to (again) exclude Michael Anthony from the game, instead replacing him with Wolfgang....much the way they tried with their infamous "airbrush" scandal on their website when they replaced bassplayer on the album cover art.

It's even sillier when you see Wolfgang playing in the "Classic" Van Halen Guitar Hero songs (Dave with the long hair, Eddie in his "Dice" shirt, etc...). Those were the days when Wolfgang wasn't even an itch in his daddy's pants.

Because he cares about garnering attention for himself, and he knows there's still a big CVH fanbase out there that would go fucking nuts over this article and give it a longer life span.

Like some kind of alien looking for the opening, shit comes marching in. Hey baybee! I'm gay, I'm up for breakfast and I'm here to ruin your day. You just a sucker, a sucker in a three piece you just a sucker because you bought my album mother fucker. Now I'm marching to Mars, with all your money, because you gave it to me, is pretty damn funny because I'm Sammy. I wear children's jammies.

" Some kind of alien....waits for the opening....simply pulls a string....love cums walkin' in "

I always thought pulling the string referred to Poodle-Head's tampon getting yanked out of his smelly twat.
