    Direct from Dave's mouth RE: VH

    Dave is sitting in this week from 6am-9am at a Boston radio station. Heard him today for the entire show and he's doing awesome! You know how we've all read threads that his schtick is always the same when he's doing the live show? It's AMAZING how much he's got to say...how smart and up to date on current affairs he is...etc.

    Anyway, I digress.

    Someone asked about VH and him getting back together. He said that EVERY YEAR, at the beginning of the year his management approaches VH's current manager (he made a joke about how many they've gone through) and asks them if they're ready. He feels it'd be the best tour ever...the Mighty VH. He mentioned that the last VH tour (w/Sam) bankrupted a ton of promoters, that they averaged 5-6,000 seats per night and that that is whey there are lawsuits going on about it. He said he's ready and willing any time but the bro's just can get it through their thick skulls that it's the way to go.

    He knocked Sam pretty good too!

    The King lives!!!

          If you guys are interested, for those that can't listen I'll post a recap of each show this week. I'll be listening every day. Also, trying to win tickets 'cause the station and DDLR are throwing an invite only St Patty's day party on Thursday. MAN, I gotta win tix to that!!!

          As long as Dave keeps trying, the VH's might break down at some point. There's always hope....

                I'd love to but I'm at work while the show goes on and don't have a recorder hooked up to a radio...even at home...believe it or not.

                I will try and see if I can figure something out.

                      Sadly, I agree.

                          Think if Dave and Ed could get into a rehearsal space together, away from 5150 and any type of home-field advantage, things have a shot of working out (least in terms of getting the ball rolling...Ed pulling his head out of his ass and doing what needs to be done on his part to create some great NEW CVH lineup music might be a bit beyond him now).
                          Thing is, too much time has been pissed away by the Van Halens since 1996. Ed and Al are just fuckin' lazy. Embracing a lackadasical attitude is not something that bodes well for a classic lineup to hit the ground running. The fallout from 1996 fueled Dave to keep on plugging away (truth be told, he never really stopped), but the sisters just lost their drive. What have they produced since their last full-length album with Hagar in 1994? 6 tunes spread over two virtually identical greatest hits compilations, 1 full-length album and tour with Cherone and one with Hagar. Pitiful output for 11 years of existence.
                          Scramby eggs and bacon.

                            So Dave tries every year with an optimistic attitude, and the sister's just can't do it??? Sounds about right!
