Another month, another rumor.
Sometimes I feel like the mule, thinking I'm gonna get to that Van Halen new album carrot in front of me....but it never happens.
*so the 2010 sessions, would that make 11 albums in the can?
“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”
In a perfect world, the Box set would only be of the 6 pack, the new album, the unreleased 2001 stuff, the unreleased 1996 stuff, the unreleased 1985 5150 demos, and a "Kissology" style DVD with the band from 1978-1985, and then a live DVD of the 2007 tour.
Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
Isn't this just a rehash of what melodiCROCK "reported" the other day?
Pretty much. But we got a definite report of a date (this last Monday). So maybe while all of us are posting in this thread, Eddie & Dave are laying down some tunes. Who knows though. Seems like the recent trend for any big band is 1 year in the studio working on an album. I wish they would get out of 5150 and go to a neutral site to record. I think there may be 1 or 2 other recording studios in Los Angeles
same sh*t posted on Melodic-shit.com.....I think all these pages copy n paste with no regard to what is the truth. VH Camp is not in a hurry to do anything but market guitars and crap....Look up Bart Walsh on FB and talk with him about his daze with Roth...Allot more entertaining!
When you turn on your stereo, does it return the favor?
Yup, we know already...see the somewhat obviously stickied thread at the top of the forum, where this so-called "news" has been discussed for a few days now.

OMFG! IT'S JUST WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED!
Pass. Why spoil the six pack? You seriously want the six'er and a bad case of heartburn afterwards? Gimme a proper boxset/DVD of the 1978-1984 years over that anyday!
Oakland 1981 for $500 Alex...
A new album with DLR after 27 years would be nice too... I still believe the magic would be there again...

Great find! Hopefully it's not a red herring.
I brought my pencil!!!
I'll be damned. Something is actually happening.
Dig the background image of his twitter page. Led Zep in Olympic Studios. Well, Jimmy Page anyway.
KAPOW!
Dude did more publicity with one simple tweet than VH publicist/wife has done in 2+ years.

Thread title changed, I'm not giving the Tasmanian Devil any fucking credit.....
I was just about to post the twitter link... Good call on the thread rename..
Man, this is actually exciting.. official, or at least as official as we're gonna get, confirmation that it has begun!!!
somebody must be pretty excited...I would...if I'd go into the studio with THAT band...

Cool I guess, so many false starts. Good confirmation of something.
I have to admit, I'm a little cautious with having John Shanks as the producer....
I mean, outside of Bon Jovi, not exactly much real rock in his resume.... Check it out: http://www.johnshanks.net/site/index.php
My real worry is that we get nothing more than the sequel to OU812, which at that time I may just go postal....
Halleluja!
Not with Dave back in his rightful place and the success of the last tour! Sure, Dave has had some miscues over the last decade but when asked to step up to the plate in the Big Leagues, Dave usually delivers.
My money's on Dave, not the producer, not on Ed or the rest of the band.
I wouldn't be surprised if the band is wanting to try and do "Jump part II" or at least an album along the lines with 1984.
Since Shanks has worked primarily in pop oriented stuff my guess is that he wants the band to go down that route for a few songs.
I am not suggesting Ed will bring back that 80s synth sound (though its possible).
And we know Dave has the ability to come up with choruses and melodies of a pop nature. All I'm saying is I wouldn't be expecting something closer to Fair Warning but something that would be more radio friendly hard rock.

If that is the case, it would signal a welcome return to the radio-ready tunes from the first and second albums, like "Jamie's Cryin'" or "Beautiful Girls". Throw in some of the goofy-yet brilliant riffs like "Fools" or the opening of "Little Guitars", one or two boogies like "Bottoms Up" and "HFT", absolutely NO KEYBOARDS and you almost have an album. Better yet, one that many of us could live with. In other words, "All Killer, No Filler!"
Look... I'm a Dave or the grave guy here....
BUT......
SpEd doesnt need Dave. Not anymore. The sisters have proven that they are more than content to sit on their asses.
I'm willing to bet the Club Dave shit wouldnt fly this time 'round either.
remember Desmond Childs? Remember Dave saying Ed would look down his nose at Daves lyrics?
I'm sure the album (if ever completed) will kick ass......
But having said that, the musical direction of this projrct rests pretty squarely on SpEd's scrawny shoulders IMO.
Fuck...who knows. I do know a wise man once said "Hope springs eternal."
I guess at the end of the day thats gonna have to be good enough for me.
Ten bucks Wolf's MUSICAL ideas hold more weight than ol' Uncle Daves at this point. And thank Christ Wolf loves him some CLASSIC VH.
Fuck Scott Weiland. Fucking asshole. I get trashed all the time and still go to work. And my job sucks ass. -ODShowtime
Can't say I disagree with you but..........Dave stepped it up during the last tour, IMHO, and with the pressure to deliver an album on par with The Six Pack. I just can't see Dave not having a major say in the musical direction. He wrote the melodies and lyrics. I can't see how he won't do the same on this album, too.
