At one point I was convinced most of the membership on this site were various Lounge aliases.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Out of over 25 000 people he was in the Top 10 of thanks in this forum and a moderator for many years.
He was funny and brave to the last.
Considering we never met in real life I have to say I'm pretty fucking upset about this...Comment

That's awesome.
Yeah. The pic of the urn and calling it his new home, was very funny and very brave. One never knows how they will face the inevitable when it comes in the way it came for him, but I don't know that I could be as brave as he was about it. Not sure if in private he was bitter, but I sure as fuck would be.
Sure wish we'd been able to come up with a Van Halen convention back in the day, when we used to talk about doing it. I've met quite a few from here at shows in various cities, and even Canada, but there were a lot more I'd have loved to have met. Lounge Machine being one of them. I never became great friends with him, or even really saw the forums and the stuff going on here, the same way he did. But that's cool and would have made for fun conversation if we had met in person.
I did meet some weird motherfuckers from here! Nickd being one of them.
Also the dude a bunch of us stayed overnight at his house for a show, and we weren't sure if he was going to keep us locked up forever! Can't remember his username. Fucking amazes me how much time has gone by since the old VH mailing list days and on to the beginning of the forums like this one. There are others that have passed too that I wish I'd have met. There are a lot of others I don't know if they are still alive or not, that I'd like to meet. There are a few I've met that I hope I never meet again. Like Nickd.

RIP Ted...
He was a complex motherfucker, but was glad I got to talk to him a few times in the past couple of years. Nothing big, but I just wanted to reach out to him. He's had a rough go, and losing a big member of the army always hits me right in the fucking face...whether I post here a ton like I used to, or not. I have a crap ton of current friends from this place...and I've said goodbye to too fucking many...
Cheers LM...I hope to hell you have that bass and your own damn kitchen up there in the great beyond..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."Comment

I remember some schmuck was trying to sell me a prepaid funeral plan. When I told him to get lost he said you aren’t going to burden your family with the costs? I replied I never saw a stiff left above ground yet.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Adios, Lounge.
There are very few hardcore Van Halen fans that still post on things like forums who are...young.
We're getting old, hombres.
This is sad news. Said adios to too many people. Last month was my 20th anniversary of joining this-here forum. Blondgirl...MAX...Lounge...Rustoffa... too many to name... Sad thing is, there are probably a few big names from the past we may not even be aware are gone...Roth Army Militia

Firstly, the name was Joseph P. Thudner.
Secondly, it is nice to see some of the old crew here, but I wish the circumstances were a bit better.
