        There's more M.A. news in main than VH. That's sad.

          What's sad is: David Lee Roth publicly muzzled by a couple DICKHEADS who won't let Dave be Dave, and are way too jealous and can't stand the fact ROTH makes everything about the band more interesting.

            That was actually a question asked of John Lennon if Ringo was the best drummer in the world. He responded he wasn't even the best drummer in the Beatles.

            Funny how it fits for Michael Anthony & VH too.

              We all get sentimental
              We all mourn the loss of MA
              Truth is, when the hagar version of the band
              and its management toured, a clear line was drawn.
              Mike didnt chose the Van Halens...

              Dave and the 3 Van Halens just cleaned up,
              and we wish MA well with whatever poultry feet he
              continues to side with.

                You sure about that Marky?

                Sounds more like the Van Halens didn't choose Mike!

                  Im very sure..

                  It goes back further than 2004.........
                  When Ed and Al wanted to continue a perception
                  of Van Halen (Even though the Halens hated Sammy)
                  Mikey went "Oh Fuck it, Van Halen are doing nothing and
                  I need to get away from the missus" So Im gonna spread the
                  Van Hagar gospel with Sammy...........

                  Well

                  The getaway was always Hagar. To Mikes detriment he was
                  only in the 2004 Hagar reunion show as Sammy's hired bass player..
                  (I cant believe it. but apparently he signed away his VH rights
                  with Sammy)

                  These seeds grew to the tree we have now.

                  Someone please correct me if wrong....

                    "At least Dave always told the truth"

                    Media reporting of various Mikey functions showed undeniably that Mikey
                    actually hated Dave..... Sucks I know, but theres the concise version.

                      sounds like Dave and sounds familiar, I believe I have heard this before.

                        Yeah, but Mike could probably retort that Dave isn't the best singer in Van Halen.

                          I'd disagree Mark...

                          From 1999 thru 2003... Ed & Al weren't anywhere. While Mike was the only visible sign of life from Van Halen. Plus Mike wasn't out selling or slamming any singer/era.

                          He'd go do a few shows with hagar but when asked about VH he'd tow the Brother's Company line on it. It wasn't until after the 2004 tour when the Other Half crap, the Burn Magazine interview when Mike grew a pair and started openly discussing things as they really were...

                          I'd say the 1st half of the decade Mike was pretty much neutral and the 2nd half he crossed over to the dark side.

                              Very true. If Dave did it for the money I'm not going to judge him. He went out there on tour and gave the fans what they wanted and of course the Van Halens fuck it up by excluding Mike who wanted and was willing to be there. Classic VH was always the four ORIGINAL members and Mike was part of it. Kicking a guy out and trying to erase the fact he even was in the band to begin with is not only deception, it's a rotten thing to do.
                              No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!
