This Fuckin' Kid

[Von Halen]

Oh, and by the way, slave FORD deleted my dissertation on Taylor Swift.

Why would he do that?

[Kristy]

Ask him. Think I was tripping on shrooms when I wrote it. Could have had something to do with it.

[Nitro Express]

Trunk was eating the corn out of Wolfie’s ass like a starving hog on a corn cob.

[Nitro Express]

What Dave and Al should do is call in Mike, get him to re-record all bass parts on ADKOT (actually many of the 'new' songs MA already did the bass parts back in 2000-2001) including adding his background vocals and then re-release it.

That would be a great FU to Wolf.

I think Al wants all the drama out of his life. Mike is too much of a gimp. He loves to be ass fucked too much.

Be careful. Whole religions have been started by tripping on shit.

So Sam is playing the "if I try to suck Wolfies's cock, maybe he'll like me better?" card. POS

[Rikk]

So Rikk reached out to me today...love that Dude...a brother from another mother...

Right back at ya, brother. Been a true friend for many years...

Sorry I've been off the map (again).

Going in for a procedure tomorrow morning. All goes well (it will), I'll be posting MORE on this subject soon...

[Rikk]

OK...my take...

1) Yes, Eddie Trunk is a CUNT to the extreme. I do miss watching THAT METAL SHOW, mainly because Jim Florentine was funny as shit. But to listen to Eddie Trunk tell it, the 1984 was a complete embarrassment and the world was waiting with baited breath for Sammy to join the band and make them good. What a crock of shit.

2) I never actually thought POJO would actually listen to me and come post something. If that can happen, maybe Eddie can come back from the dead, Dave can suddenly be 40 years younger and Van Halen can really come back.

3) Wolfgang's music is absolutely following the Foo Fighters formula: generic rock riffs, over-produced and over-compressed, with so-called "kick ass" rock riffs, little resembling a catchy or dangerous sounding song...with nothing to actually say. I mean, how can a guy who thinks the highlight of one's day is mixing shrimp scampi and mashed potatoes in a big bowl, topped with Oreo cookies 'n' gravy ACTUALLY HAS ANYTHING INTERESTING TO SAY IN A ROCK LYRIC?

4) I am going to a show this summer with my daughter (her 1st concert...she'll be 10) to see Metallica & Pantera. (Don't start the anti-Metallica shit with me...it's my daughter's favorite band and I'm happy for her.) And I'm proud to say that not only are we going to deliberately show up late enough to NOT see Wolfgang's shitty band play their set...but my daughter actually tells me: "We're skipping Eddie Van Halen's son because he sucks. Pantera will be awesome though!"

5) If it's true that Wolfgang (I can't believe someone over 30 would like being called "Wolfie") & Valerie are those responsible for killing any potential of an archive Van Halen release, they can go fuck themselves. (Not sure how much I believe this theory only because then why did they agree to the absolute joke of a box set with the Sammy material last year? But I guess it's feasible.)

6) What strikes me is that the fat piece of shit seems to approve of any project that involves HIM (a useless tribute WITHOUT his dad) but no project that does not involve his fatness (archived Van Halen shows from the original band, studio outtakes already mixed & compiled in 2004).

7) Most tribute concerts are a fucking joke. I have NEVER understood why idiots (like Trunk) whine about this. I don't want to see some of the members of the dead band Van Halen onstage, looking old and pretending they're enjoying each other's company while idiots like Joe Satriani pretend to be Eddie. FEW tribute shows are memorable. I think only TWO I can think of that actually were really worth seeing were the 2002 George Harrison Tribute Concert at Royal Albert Hall AND the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert in 1992 at Wembley Stadium.

8) If Wolfgang joins Sammy Hagar & Michael Anthony onstage, they'd better make sure the stage has good foundations. That is a LOT of man-fat on one stage.

9) Val & Wolfgang can both such each other off, as far as I'm concerned. About 2/3 of the supposed box set leaked a few months ago and I have it on my iTunes (I'm old, I guess) to crank it whenever I want.

10) Fuck A DIFFERENT KIND OF TRUTH not being on streaming. I still have my physical copy (with DVD), I have it on my iTunes, anybody who wants to can listen to it on YouTube...fuck streaming. Any old school VH fan has that album.

11) Wolfgang clearly follows the Sammy Hagar model of marketing/keeping your name out there: say controversial, shitty things about people you used to work with. It's a guarantee for free advertising. Fuck him.

12) Some people in this thread are bitching about A DIFFERENT KIND OF TRUTH. I don't agree with Dave. I love that fucking album. I'm glad it exists. It didn't help me forgive the band for the previous 27 years, but it was nice to have. Unlike (I'm sure) a lot of fans, I still listen to it regularly. In fact, I'm cranking it now as I type this (currently cranking OUTTA SPACE...I do love LET'S GET ROCKIN' too, though).

Hi Rikk.

I agree wholeheartedly with all of this apart from a bit of 3).

I wouldn't describe myself as a Foo Fighters fan but through kids I am a later adopter at least to the 'Best of' level. I get that people can be irritated by the ubiquitous Grohl and so on but Wolfgang is a fucking mile away from anything that makes their music transcend from mediocre as it does or at least did from time to time. The Foo Fighters have at least a dozen songs at this point that even if it's not your thing you can appreciate with some big hooks, clever rhythms and arrangements and that also Dave Grohl in a fucking wheelchair is a 1000% better frontman than NepoFatty ever will be.

WVH is not even to the Foo Fighters what The Bullet Boys were to Van Halen.

Do you wear your daughters clothes too? Borrow outfits from them? Are you also wearing that Lululemon crap?

The Foo Fighters suck. I had to go back and re-read number 3 of Rikk's excellent post to see what he might have gotten wrong. He got nothing wrong!

[Nitro Express]

Nothing in the Foo Fighters grabbed me but it didn’t make me vomit either. Wolf the fan boy can try and copy them but the novelty is wearing off quick.

[twonabomber]

Cobain shoulda shot Grohl first!

[Nitro Express]

He should have put a hole in Courtney as well.

[Seshmeister]

cobain shoulda shot grohl first!

lmao!

I think the reason I don't hate them like you guys do is because I went to their first tour on a freebie thought it was meh and then was able to completely ignore them for 20 years.

[Kristy]

You have to understand where slave SESH is coming from. For one, he European and two he's a huge Snow Patrol fan. The Foo Foo Fighters are like a second cousin to him. Yes, I have no idea what that means. Now, if the F A T Wolf Boy wants to hitch his Nepowagon to the Grohl's media whoring then good for him. The both of them can fuck off to anyone who runs any podcast, late night talk show or, say, an asshole like (p)Rick Beato who is so god damn boring himself and talk about how (un)important they are to the music biz.

Excuse me for a seccy here, I'm on drugs.


Okay, what I wanted to say is that The F A T Wolf Boy reminds me of a time I came upon a strange room where all the other parts were laying deep in the shadows, the only light fell strongly upon a corner of the table and sitting at that table was the F A T Wolf Boy himself casting a pair of dice. He had thrown his chance, and he had turned his head when I approached. He was sweating out a combination of Hostess doughnuts and bacon grease. His hair was in his eyes and his complexion was pale and aquiline. His emotions were scarred and his expression was deep with lines of guilt and misery (especially around his F A T eyes) which flashed a lurid light and his lips were parted with a mocking Satanic laugh.

Never seen such a horrid sight in all my life. This F A T chud of a man and what was more distinct in this shadowy gloom was dim figure that seemed to move and stood next to the table with the dice by his side. That figure was Dave Ghrol.


Sorry, what were we talking about?
