"Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is." -
Fuck rumors.
There's been too many of them concerning Van Halen to get psyched up for anything that may or may not happen down the road, and since Cherone left the band 11 years ago there have been upwards of (off the top of my head) a dozen or so widely spread scenarios regarding what "the band is gonna do" that have turned out to be not even close to the mark...95% of the time Van Halen ended up doing nada.
The only informed sources that matter are the current members of the band, and they're not talking.

It lists three albums due in December...WACF, 1984 and VH II. I don't get it...they are reissuing the remasters, or are they remastering them a second time?
EDIT: Come to find out, these are vinyl releases. part of a shitload of Warner Bros. stuff getting released in this format for around 25 bucks per album.Last edited by chefcraig; 11-14-2010, 06:40 PM.

Yep. I burned my own "Best of Van Halen" volumes 1&2 CD's years ago for road trip convenience (and not having any Hagar songs in the mix). Funny thing is when you burn the Van HALEN catalog onto 2 80 minute CD's, it takes up most of the 6 pack. Though I actually used a couple songs from the Zero demo in the mix rather than from the first album. RWTD & On Fire, if I remember correctly. Plus I also used that version of House of Pain, which in my humble opinion blows away the 1984 version. Damned if I know why that never made the first album.Eat Us And Smile

I actually have a CD that I listen to every morning, with just Mean Street, Unchained, So This is Love, I'm the One and Take Your Whiskey Home

In 2000...we had a release sent to us, complete with the Warner Bros. heading...about a new tour with Roth, starting with an appearance at the MTV music awards. I had a friend that worked for WB distribution in Nashville who said, "Damn, that looks like the real deal."
Brownsound and hain (webbies here at the time...Brownie still is) and I thought it was the real deal...
Of course...it wasn't...
But there has been some good stuff to come down the pipe since 1996...Eat Us And Smile

Fuck, I remember that shit. I think I still have captures of that fake WB letterhead, and the artwork and whatever else that troll put up as his "evidence". Unfortunately, it's probably on the same dead hard drive that has all my pics of the 2002 Gorge show and a whole lot of other shit that I'll never actually see again

Only problem is that Dave so far would never title an album like this. Subconsciously or not it does not sound like his normal call. So it looks like it....hmmm feels like it......smells like it.....tastes like it.....Damn, good thing we didn't step in it! Perhaps "Bold" might be a compromise with Eddie as they are a "Band" now. But, Ego's aside, Eddie has not been known for his command of the english language.Can't Control your Future. Can't Control your Friends. The women start to hike their skirts up.
