From a Blabbermouth excerpt. (http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=88315)

Tangra Mega Rock: And what do you think about the return of VAN HALEN?

Halford: I think it's unfortunate that they don't have the original bass player, Michael Anthony. Of course it's exciting to see David Lee Roth back on stage again... I remember many, many year ago JUDAS PRIEST opened up for VAN HALEN in Los Angeles — that's a vivid memory for me. VAN HALEN had a very important voice in rock 'n' roll, so it's exciting to see them back together. It's a great show to watch.

I think it's unfortunate that the original bassplayer is a Hagarita.

Yeah, well...Dave Holland's absence didn't stop JP from reforming, so...

Nothing that hasn't been said before....alot of us wish Michael Anthony was a part of the tour.

Ma needs to be worried about the cryptic nature of Halford's observation. Next thing MA knows? Halford and Anselmo show up with a bouquet of flowers, and a case of sympathetic wine.

:xmas: :gulp: :sex: :splooge:

THAT is the bottom line.

Any friend of Hagar is an enemy of mine.

Are you sure you're not confusing with Dave Holland, the JP drummer?

At least Ed hates Sammy.

But then again deep down inside I think Ed hates everyone but Wolf, Al, and himself.

He probably hates Dave too, which is why they can't fucking make an album, nor talk to the press. Because they're always one tick away from blowing it all to hell...And BTW, I don't totally blame Eddie for that. Heresy as it may be to say, Dave has his own stupid "Chemical Brothers" bullshit from 1996-2002 that threw a wrench into any sort of new Van Halen collaboration. His Disco loving bullshit is completely antithetical to making good rock and roll...

Well, he loves a certain Smoking Loon...

Blabbermouth: "Sources close to the Halford camp are reporting that Michael Anthony is recording an acoustic version of "Victim Of Changes" with Rob Halford and Phil Anselmo."

Dave with Sammy
Ed with Sammy
Ed with Dave

It's all buddy-buddy when it comes to the money.

So just pick a point on the triangle, pick a CD that goes with that point and listen to it.

Silly Post.

Halford's just expressing his opinion. Seems to me that most of what he says is positive....
