So why no interviews?

It's just got to be that they can't talk about Sam.

How can you not as an interviewer bring up the fact that Van Hagar sold twice as many albums as classic VH?

Seems like they are talking to the media a lot in the past month. Albeit scripted.
If you are an Attention whore like Hagar, it would be killing him that they dont
even bother to mention him

Oh there will be interviews. as far as Sam goes, isn't Dave the king of the non-sequitur? He'll Obi Wan the interviewers into realizing there are way more important things to talk about than Sam, like which hotel has the best tasting mints left on the pillows.

What actually went down when they did the live show in Miami?

i talked to Brian Young after Dave's HOB show here in Cleveland. what was that, '06? told him i thought they got a raw deal, and that i felt Dave was set up to fail. he says "we were absolutely set up to fail." we talked a little about the Miami thing, and how Dave was telling Brian hey, we're gonna get through this, and it's gonna be okay.

We had them at DDLR but lost them.

that is not entirely true...

We should have been better organised but part of the problem was 4 hours of mp3s a day was mounting up to be awkward to move around and to be honest I think the majority of people even on the site only listened when it was reported that Roth had said something about his music.

it got to the point where i felt why record them, when CBS was putting the clips online? so we just posted their links. we had a pretty good idea the show was ending when it did, so yeah i recorded the last day. someone gave us one show i didn't record, we called it the "lost show" but i don't remember if that was from the Miami week or when Dave went off on management.

I don't think for a minute that we're gonna hear one word from Dave about Sam, or Chickenfoot, or Mikey, or anything remotely close to talking about the dark years that Eddie put us through. What's he gonna talk about? Gary's Dance Of The Flaming Assholes he did onstage when he was fronting Dave's former back-up band???

See thats what Im kinda thinking.....

These guys are going to just erase Van Hagar from the world's collective memory.

ZERO mention. No live interviews. Scripted words about Van HALEN. As in 1983, 1984, 1984 1/2, 2007, 2008 etc. Those other years never happened.

Which in a way kinda sucks...... But it's fucking brilliant!

And like Pana said, It's the perfect parting shot to the bloated moose.

i have a feeling there will be a Guitar World interview, but i don't think they'd get Ed to go over how Dave got back in the band.

[DLR Bridge]

Hence the mad Obi Wan skills of Mr. DLR. Believe me, they're gonna ask.

yes mate, ed has just used gw to whore gear for 20 years. it'll be very interesting to see if we get a repeat of 95's 'one big bottle, now it's all gone' spiel.

[DLR Bridge]

I thought that was an interesting analogy Ed had going with that line. Too bad it wasn't reeeally all gone, for his sake.

"sss. S'anything left in that bottle?"

"yeah"

"over here....over here."

[ashstralia]

and meth. crikey, that's one drug i'll die without trying!

GW..."Ok, so how did Dave wind up back in the band?"
Ed..."Uhhh...well....Uhhh...I chase tone man, you know? I chase tone."
GW..."Ok, Dave, so how did you wind up back in the band?"
Dave - "I AM Van Halen motherfucker!"
