[ELVIS]

The best Roth Show episode ever...

They should all be about that length...

Dave sounds pretty good too...

[DONNIEP]

Sounds like Arlo wrote it. I like it.

[VAiN]

I love it! Thanks, Dave... cool little holiday-inspired tune...

[DLR Bridge]

Definitely a fun and funny tune!

First thing I thought of when I saw the VH flag was poor Mike A saying over and over, "I just thought I'd wave the Van Halen flag while we were on a break." Ya gotta know how to wave it.

[ELVIS]

Here drunken Scot...

Here drunky drunky drunk...

[katina]

Happy Holidays again Dave, and Aloha!!!

[Hardrock69]

Ha....I had a smile all the way through.

Uncle Dave, Merry Xmas to you sah!

[Zen Halen]

Woody Guthrie & Bob Dylan are somewhere smiling at ol' DLR. Thank you & Happy Happy Holidays!!!
2015 is going to be a monster year for the mightiest band in the land - VAN HALEN!!!!!!!!!

Happy Hellidays, Dave!

Nothing "happy" about the holidays.

Cheap commercial exploitation of the proletariat for endless corporate capitalistic greed.

Fuck the holidays.

[Seshmeister]

If you aren't happy it's unlikely holidays are going to make you so.

Research shows a lottery win or even a bereavement doesn't change happiness a year later. There are happy people and then there are people like you and ELVIS.

[CreatureFrmTheC]

Heard it on the radio today!

[VAiN]

Heard it on the radio today!

That's awesome! It would be great for it to get some traction

[binnie]

Great stuff - cheers for posting.

[ThatArtGuy]

Unless the Van Halens hear it...

Fuck the holidays.

I bet presents from Gucci and Cartier in a new Mercedes would cheer you right up.

a ship passing by with the VH - Flag on it and Dave singing "wait a minute...sailors offered me that gig"...I dunno...

[TFM_Dale]

Pretty fucking cool.

[Baby's On Fire]

The ship isn't sailing by. It's pulling into shore.

Hagar took his place again and they're getting Gary Cherone on bass

"I see a lotta people riding on a moonbeam"?

More like arriving at shore to be dry-docked and put in moth balls...

[vandeleur]

ive listened to this a couple of times , its a grower .

[ELVIS]

I'm happy...

Happy to tear you a new asshole on a daily basis...

It's like a ray of sunshine....

[Kristy]

Just a Victorinox for me.

[ELVIS]

That's gay...

[Kristy]

Actually, it's worth alone is 6 times more than your monthly welfare check.

[ELVIS]

Even if your false premise were true, why would that impress you ??

I thought you were anti-consumer and anti-corporation ??

[Kristy]

I never said I was anti-watch, you welfare queen troll.

[ELVIS]

That was funny, for a change...

[Kristy]

Whatever, you sad welfare fuck.

[ELVIS]

Hey, maybe you can get the matching shoes...

From Dave:

“Yes, there are hidden messages in the video. The Kon-Tiki is the epitome of adventure. The VH flag and the Kon-Tiki are symbiotic. The ‘Everybody Wants Some’ lyric is reflective of upcoming good news.”

Van Halen know how to drive people to the edge of sanity hey. News is coming soon....EXCITEMENT! then nothing....then news is coming soon....THEN EXCITEMENT...and repeat. I fall for it everytime...but when they finally do announce, they'll deliver.

I don't want to speculate again but I can't help it haha. Van Halen cruise? Adventure meaning something new they haven't done before? Boxset? Live Dave release, Blue tiki=dave, red tiki=Hagar?, full fledged world tour with michael anthony in support of a vaults release? Tabula Rasa?

[Jérôme Frenchise]

WTF is going on now (at last something is happening)? What a strange, but funny way to hint at it though.

Before "it" is announced, interpretations are open!

The most likely is the launch of a Tour. The boat maybe suggests something happening overseas -- I wish it were Europe, but the landscape doesn't look like it.
Dave's 2007 announcement including Europe in their 07-08 Tour is still sticking in my throat.

It sure isn't any new album anyway, because it wouldn't be a way to pre-advertise it.

[BiG_Troubles]

ive listened to this a couple of times , its a grower .

i like it as well, but the radio announcers poked a great deal of fun at it

[ELVIS]

The most likely is the launch of a Tour.

Or a live DVD nobody wants...

Hopefully, I'm wrong and you're 100% correct...
