No, the Van Halen's were anything but wealthy. They kind of held it against Dave in the earliest days, because he did come from money. The first time Dave auditioned for them, they booted him out. It was a couple of years or so before he finally got in with them. Seriously dog, read the book. It is really fucking good, and goes into great detail what it took for these guys to make it.
It's been awhile since I read a book. 1990 to be exact. I had nothing better to do at the time. Read a lot of books in 1990. Mainly books by Louis L amour. That Greg dude said he thought VH would be revered like The Beatles and The Doors if they had just broken up after Roth left but I'm not buying it. Nobody would give a shit about a Van Halen movie. They just don't have the same mystique as those bands. Not many do.
I wasn't available to attend the chat... When I click on the link Sesh provided it just takes me to the home page announcement.
Where is the contents hidden at..?
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
I seem to remember it was a fun and interesting chat and quite a few people got questions answered.
Von is transcribing it and we will be putting it up soon.
Cheers!
Motherfuckers don't show up to the chat, then want the transcript immediately.
Go fuck yourself Zah!
greg shoulda had the buggy
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!
That was a good chat. The way you guys set it up was perfect for this site. We could be smartasses without the guest seeing it and getting pissed off. Greg had a pretty good sense of humor though. Can't believe Von posted my comment about Eddie's ex saying he had a small dick. She probably did though. That's why he said no comment.
How intelligent, caffagerslob.
I see you social worker failed in her attempt in placing you in a DBT support group.
Okay, I did some editing, and put the questions and answers mostly in order. I say mostly, because I may have missed a little. For the most part, the answers should be with the questions now. What a fucking pain in the ass!
Okay, I'll buy his fucking book

I'm surprised Greg (or anybody else, really) would think that Ed and Al would work with Mike again, especially Ed. Al i could see because he looks like the more reasonable of the two, but he always follows Ed's lead. But, there really doesn't seem to be an absolute with these guys, contrary to what they say in the moment. Al in 2004: "We will never, ever, ever get back together with Dave." 2007: Van Halen announces the return of David Lee Roth - tour imminent.
If they do ever bring Mike back i believe it will take Wolfgang convincing his dad to make it happen. The good news is that Wolfgang is one of the few (only?) people that realistically could make it happen.
This was one of my favorites. Ed on DLR in Rolling Stone, April 1995:
Listen, I don't hate the guy. I actually ran into him not that long ago when Valerie and I were walking in New York. I walked back a quarter block, and he finally turned around. He was kind of hesitant. I shook his hand. I asked him how he was doing, and he looked kind of shocked. It's like a divorce. It's over and done with. But anyone who thinks he's ever going to come back is ridiculous.
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
Ah I don't think it's ever gonna happen. Ed is too damn codependent and can't get up there without his kid. Although it would be awesome if they reunited, Ed really started getting pissed off half way through the tour and said some shit about Mike in another interview and then Mike beats the dog shit out of him right there on stage. Holy hell I'd pay a thousand bucks to see that.
So when is Ed coming over for a live chat?
American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
I wonder what the noobs here who don't post think when they read our stuff? They're probably convinced we all have social workers, live in basements, we're all F A T wannabe musicians, and we're all in the Klan
Oops, I forgot one: all the guys in the UK are drunk most of the time too. Well, that one's true but you know what I mean.
Donnie, you have to be F A T and live in a basement if you have over 20,000 posts here. The more posts the F A T T E R you are and better chance of collecting disability and your Obonga health insurance.

I'm writing a book called, "Van Halen Falling: How a once mighty band got saved by a F A T kid with no stage presence"

Most certainly doesn't matter, as I'm just curious if I was doing something wrong, but how is it that everyone's name preceded their questions but mine? My phone was wigging out during the chat. Wouldn't properly refresh without jumping me around in the feed.
Somebody archive our bottom pane banter in the VIP room! There was some quality stuff in there last nite
