My Tweet to Eddie Trunk

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Not exactly a shocker, but Eddie never responded to me....

And, by the way, I actually like Emeril's spaghetti sauce, got a nice tang to it....

Trunk likes to fondle everyone's balls...and he does throw soft balls at times.

Fact is though I give him props...he has said many times the David Lee Roth version is untouble...even though he loves Sam.

Still the best programmed four hour block on Sirius' Boneyard...XM's version is sadly missed.

Really? I find it more or less bland, and not much better than Prego. To tell ya the truth, the best jarred sauce I ever tasted was Frank Sinatra's, but sadly, it's been off the market since he passed away.

Nor did he respond to my post agreeing with you that he is full of sh*t. Not surprising.

Seen the episode the other day, you could see Jim Florentine frown up when Trunk made that statement, like dude you're wrong.

But I guess he couldn't correct him on tv?

It is intensely frustrating to see others propagate that fucking lie...

I could see if they were neck and neck...or if Hagar's version of the band put out anything remotely close to being something memorable...

but they weren't even fucking close with regards to sales...and seriously...is there ANY Hagar version that you could put into the top 20 of Van Halen's all time top songs? I can't stand the Hagar version....but if there was one...I'd remember it...right?

Isn't that the point?

So liking Hagar, or not liking Hagar isn't the deal...it's that Hagar's movie is like purchasing Prego for your spaghetti sauce...it's better than just dumping ketchup on it, but a day or so later, it all leaves you quickly, never to be heard from again...

Eddy Truck sounds like a massive intellectual pussy who deserves to have his balls kicked in. Only, he doesn't have any...

[Diamondjimi]

Trunk is a delusional Pussy who's never been in the Pit....

[howie]

Eddie Trunk

...is Eddie Trunk annoying to anyone else?

Not a big fan but I just finished watching Iron Maiden 666 from 2008 (very cool documentary by the way) Eddie is interviewing BD and coming off like a retard. Not the first time I've had that impression, but hey, who am I to criticize...

Sometimes I get the impression he tries way too hard - I know he does some good stuff too - Rocklahoma, That Metal Show etc

[Nickdfresh]

Already a thread on this in the Main...

Should have read before I posted

Trunk is a Sammy lovin piece of shite! And he is a goofy motherfucker too.

[AJW]

Trunk had Sammy Pussy Nugget on "That Metal Show" a couple months ago and it was all softball questions designed not to hurt Hagar's feelings. I was waiting for Trunk to call out Sambo on some of the blatant lies he printed in his book --- such as "I was as huge as Van Halen in 1984" or "Roth-era concerts were not very tight since they were 4 solos and maybe 6 or 7 songs". Any music journalist with half a spine would've called Sammy out on that kind of bullshit, but Trunk was quite happy to waste time sucking on his nutsack and telling everyone how good Sammy looks for his age --- even though his flabby belly and cottage cheese thighs could not be concealed under that stupid t-shirt and capri pants ensemble he wears these days.

Trunk is a joke and nowhere close to being an objective music journalist. He only has a radio & TV show because he's chummy with a lot of metal and hard rock acts. He's a PR puppet and gossip spreader ---- nothing more.

Amen to that.

Great analogy POJO.
