I have been a loyal CVH/DLR fan for over 23 years. I have been to shows, bought albums...the works. I cannot stand by here anymore and wait like a ugly chick on prom night for the reunion, which will never happen.
I cannot stand to see the band that I idolized become a joke and Roth become nothing more than the punchline. I do not want to hear how great a guitar player/musical genius was EVH was when he hasn't become a non-entity since "Right Now." With that said, I can no longer hear how DLR is "the man" or "the stud" when at 50 is kissing Tom Chiuosano and Les Mooves' ass to save his failing radio show. Folks, he's become rock and roll's equivalent to Adam West.
Rue the day they are ever inducted into the RRHoF. Their onstage antics will make Blondie and CCR seem tame in comparison. I am tired of the fans getting treated like garbage with their arrogance and animosity. Amazing that VH and DLR don't even give the press an interview, their fans decent merchandise (please don't tell me that the online site on DLR.com was good,) they don't vary the setlist for years and don't even their fans a decent website, even Thomas Dolby's site has more content and is updated and he's not nearly as relevant or historical in music as VH. The Atomic Punks' site has more stuff. It shows you how little both of them care about us.
EVH and DLR you've done it, you've really done it, you've lost me as a fan. I have a life to live and I simply don't have the time anymore. A reunion at this time, when they are fifty makes it even more pathetic and bittersweet. They are both horrible individuals and deserve everything that happens to them. I love the idea and the message of CVH, though I feel sorry for David Lee Roth and I despise Eddie and Alex Van Halen. I admire you folks on the message boards, you still believe. I wish I could too, but when i hear CVH lately, I just cringe when I think how far they've sunk.
With that said, I'm out...cancel my username. Thank you, but I can't do this anymore.
