When Dave was gone the spirit was gone.

thanks, can't wait to pick up that issue... his drumming is really both energetic, dynamic and technical. With feeling too!

Alex, da man

[Antman]

And this is from the man who said that Dave needs meds and just like the Beatles will never reunite, neither will VH and Dave. If hindsight were 20/20...

[ELVIS]

That little quote makes me sick after hearing Alex steadily bash Dave over the last 25 or more years...

He's a great drummer, but he's not "da man" in my book...

At least Edward always maintained that they made great music with Dave...

Alex never had anything positive to say about Dave, period...

I reckon Dave and Al were good buds early in the piece,
then had a falling out. Seems like the old hatchet has been
welll and truly buried now though :) Thank god !

[canadian halen]

Good friends yea! till Dave screwed Al wife,that could be a fall out. Would you have nice words? Not for at least 22 years. But i guess they are buddys again. Thank God for that! amen.

[Halen High]

Interesting. Hope the magazine is available Down Under. Seems to me the brothers have finally matured enough to work with Dave.

Alex is a two-faced asshole. So is Eddie and MA for that matter.

So he's a good drummer, and Dave is back in the remnants of VH, and you hippocrates are now calling Alex Da Man?

As much of a douche bag as Sammy Hagar is and always will be, at least he's been consistent and more-or-less honest (except where record sales are concerned).

Alex says whatever sounds good at the time.

Hippocrate ?? Is that some sort of wooden hippopotamus
transport device ??

I AM HIGHLY OFFENDED !!

[Isaac R.]

OK, let's see...

Penthouse.
Hustler.
Wizard.

Strange but I might feel a little embarrassed asking for that last one...

Takes 2 to tangle....So she was to blame as well.
But only the insiders know the real deal.

[lafours]

since when has any one cared what SHEMP has to say?

sadly no new Roth articles or interviews on the horizon...

[J Curling]

Who gives a fuck - I'll do it again:

Alex Da Man!
