Oh dear.
Glad to see he milked his connections to get his ass into a show that many would've cut a limb off to get into. Then Mr. Big Shot spouts off with his "less than impressed" comment. I like the music he plays but I listen to him ramble sometimes and he can be such an ass-clown.
I'm not going to unlock that one, I'll make a new thread....
Very soon....

I think Trunk is cool and i look forward to his satelite radio show every week. If not for his show, i couldn't have given a shout out to The Roth Army. The few times i have called and been on the air, he treated me nice and was respectful. One time i even talked with him and Mike Piazza about Accept. I don't agree with a lot of his opinions especially when it comes to Hagar, but i love the fact that he interviews bands of our genre, a lot of which wouldn't have a vehicle to be heard otherwise. Say what you want about his support of Hagar, Kiss and UFO. However, don't forget that he held Dio on high and continues to promote the shit of the likes of Sabbath, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. I loved the 80's and most of the hard rock that was created therein. Where else am i going to find out what is new with Crue and Ratt, have Halford call in and bullshit for awhile, and get killer tunes along the way? Lastly, he was talking about Tattoo and not passing judgement based on that track alone. That is no different than all of the people around here that talk about how they love 1984 except for hating Jump.

RIDE TO LIVE, LIVE TO RIDE
LET `EM ROLL ONE MORE TIME
New Thread! New Thread!
Are there really people here who wonder how or why Trunk got to go to The Wha? show..?
Maybe because he is the host of the leading televised Music / Rock and Roll talk show going right now.
Or is it the only talk show about Rock and Roll ?
Should they have sent some more of The RA members,.. well, Hell Yeah! they should have..but all this -why Trunk?- just sounds stupid.
Maybe due to Trunks comments about VH and negativity, gave DDE and The Van Halen Machines, the oportunity to live review thier new tune and sound in front of what no-one would call a stacked deck of fans or editorial music writers.
I like Florentine better anyway...so there.
2015 once smoke 2 smoke ...poke
clara the tiny giraffe make fur curve
Trunk is a fucking no-talent douchebag who is even more embarrassing than Hagar when talking about Van Halen or rock music in general!
Yeah, I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU, Eddie FUCKINGDOUCHEBAG Trunk...
I know you read this website...
GO FUCK YOURSELF !!
You're an embarrassment to the hard rock community...
And that goes for your little dog sidekick, too...
Are we there yet? Half a Heineken in hand.
Eddie Trunk is a fanboy, no question, but hardly pisses me off as much as the assclown with the sideburns on TMS, I forgot his name. What a joke.
..Ha!
Maybe if Eddie read Dave's book it would be easier for him to 'get' Dave... he obviously doesn't.
At least the Asian guy was in the fucking moment. Yeah, irritating as a splinter from a cheap chopstick (fuck you Panda Express!) but holy motherfuck was the little dude having some fun. Gotta love it.
Trunk goes & is "less than impressed". Compared to an Army member who goes & says the band looked kinda fuzzy through all the tears of joy that were streaming and can't talk for a week after due to losing their voice.
Big difference.
Fuck Eddie Trunk. I don't like the guy & never have. Fucking know-it-all who doesn't really.
“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”
That story was in the liner notes for their "Reel To Real" album, but the story was that Jeff Keith "won a vocal contest singing a Sammy Hagar song just days before joining the band". He was leaving the band Troubleshooter, which he was in with his brother, to form City Kidd with Frank, Brian, Tommy and Troy in 1984, which was later renamed Tesla.

Meh.
This version doesn't need the Eddie Trunk / That Metal Show stamp of approval any more than they did four years ago.
Trunk can dislike the new album all he likes and can have Mike Anthony and Sam Hagar on TMS every other week; Chickenfoot ain't gonna move any albums or fill any halls even close to what Van Halen 2012 will.
Scramby eggs and bacon.

I am so glad there are so many truly dedicated fans here!
I am hoping that the receipt totals for this tour will show all those talking heads out there that they have been talking out of their collective ases!!
That "IT AIN'T VH W/O DLR" T-shirt is probably the one I wear the most when I get to be in public places.
Trunk's most wore t-shirt (with sweat & food stains, smell and all) is a White Castle one.
Trunk gives mad props....
EddieTrunk So finally listened to all of new VH. As you know I was holding off commenting until I heard full CD because I was not loving Tattoo...

EddieTrunk I can honestly say Im shocked @ how good it is! Heavy, no keys, no ballads, prod is very live, songs kick ass, & king EVH is back ruling!

EddieTrunk Some songs are much better than others but reminds me at times of Woman & Children which is an all time favorite. Suspect it will grow more

EddieTrunk I still miss Michael Anthony but its way better and heavier than I ever would have thought, especially with Tattoo leading the way!
Tue, Feb 07 18:53:09 from Twitter for iPhone
Haha! Damn right.
I don't miss michael anthony.
And of course there's no "Ballads", that's what the REAL Van Halen is about!
“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” ~~Maria Robinson
I do not miss Michael Anthony because these songs are not built on constant harmonies to support the songs, these are more gang vocal oriented and get the hell out of my way songs which is a welcome change from the dreaded ballads of the Hagritte years.
I'm not missing Mike... WOLF KICKS MAJOR ASS! As for interviewers, damn I would love to see George Strombopolous have a sit-down interview with Dave.
"Ya know what they say about angels... An angel is a supernatural being or spirit, usually humanoid in form, found in various religions and mythologies. Plus Roth fan boards..."- ZahZoo April 2013
Got to be honest I don't miss Anthony. As cool as it would be to have the original four but I don't think his participation isn't essential. DLR, Eddie & Al are the Van Halen sound. Besides, Wolf is really holding it down live singing and playing his ass off. VH is all over the media and they deserve all the praises cause they made a kick ass f'n record!
The only one missing Michael Anthony right about now is Michael Anthony.
Let's translate Trunk's recent tweet on the album, what he is actually saying is this, "I do not know a damn thing about what comprises a good rock lp, so I will wait and see what others think and which side of the fence would be the best to kiss some ass on."
The only thing that suprises me is that people are intrested what Trunk thinks...
He's like Hagar but not even in a band...
