BLACK N' BLUE is one of my favorite Van Hagar songs. I like it so much because it is much rawer and reminds me of the Dave days. It's not nearly as polished as some of the other "corporate" stuff. It is probably the main reason OU812 is my favorite Van Hagar album. It's great to know that I'm not the only one who loves the song!
As for CAN'T GET THIS STUFF NO MORE, the music was apparently written and recorded during the BALANCE sessions as "BACKDOOR SHUFFLE." Dave recorded new vocals over it for the BEST OF (ME WISE MAGIC was brand new), and Hagar apparently later sued the band because Dave slightly borrowed the melody on the chorus from Sam's original vocal (he had an out-of-court settlement for $5000).
I agree. BLACK N' BLUE really was the last time the band released a hardcore rock n' roll single until HUMANS BEING, ME WISE MAGIC, and possibly WITHOUT YOU.
On the VH3 tour: "I agree with ya 120% Eddie played much better on that tour than this tour (so far) !!! "
On LOVE WALKS IN: "Anyone hear this before? My favorite VH tune with Sam as they pay tribute to that tragic day."
"OUI! OUI! We were in Montreal last year for a hockey game between the Leafs and Habs and WOW, the woman are friendly and gorgeous! Hope VH makes their way there, we'll certainly make the trip!"
"Both Dave and Sammy thrive and excel when given the lead vocal spot in Van Halen. As solo artists, they have their moments. With Dave you have the opportunity to hear classic Van Halen tunes the band hasn't played since early 80's. With Sammy, you get to hear his solo material and hear Van Halen tunes which obviously isn't the same feeling, being that it's played with the Waboritas. This is about a reunion and Sammy is given another opportunity to share the spotlight with Eddie, Alex and Mike."
"If you read some of my other posts correctly, I said I've seen all tours with Sam."
"The best part is a special arrangement I have for this concert (again) so the long road trip is worth it! I can say this, I will have the best view of VH and hope I can snap a few pictures like I have in the past!"
Speaking of tickets someone is offering for the Van Hagar MOLINE show in 2004: "I need 4! Price NO object!"
"DreamIsOver, Greenpaw5150, Lem Motlow,LoveWalkinIn, madanthony(cool name by the way!) thanks guys for the input and just checked out the 4 and 5 star availability for the shows and they're still up! The Mark really looks like a cool place to see a concert but probably checking out both shows since it is essentially a mini vacation. Thanks again!"
Three most under-rated VH songs: "Dirty Movies
Pleasure Dome
That's Why I Love You"
"We're planning a road trip to one or BOTH gigs VH have coming up in Moline and Champaign Illinois! It's about a 10 hour drive from here but contemplating a flight instead."
PM to BRETT: "You lowlife piece of shit jew cunt! You think you can actually think I won't post on the links again? lol Think again asshole! Its too bad you run jamtothis.com also! What a disgrace that board is now that it has a lowlife part of it.

VH LINKS SUCKS, you seem to be suffering from post traumatic shock syndrome. All your wars with the Links have left you cuntfused as to who the real enemy is.
And learn to stop hating Jews, ALBERT. It's not nice.

“I love to definitely keep the sheep in line. And it's awesome to have dudes like me, you and Max out there fucking with them. We have to keep the message out there if we EVER want the situation rectified.”- pRikk
“You're right...I have to watch my mouth there if I ever want to keep appearing or else I'll get banned. I've already had run-ins with Brett in the past!!
littleguitars99 is a cunt. I've had fights with that idiot before and he always says stupid shit. I try and ignore it. One of my least favorite cunts there is Motion Blur.”-pRikk
” I've been fighting with GUWAPO all morning. He's a real cocksucker. He attacked the PEN, MAX and myself for no reason and his buddy PETE has finally been de-modded, partly because of this bullshit. Can you do me one favor, dude? Can you go into the non-VH forum and go into the thread GUWAPO started that insults me and tell him to shut the fuck up? The idiot deserves to be told off by as many people as possible. He's going down. He just doesn't know it yet BTW, here's the thread GUWAPO's been trying to trash me in. http://www.rotharmy.com/forums/show....3577”.-pRikk
” Dude, can you do me a major favor? It would be the ultimate favor you could do right now.
The SHEEP PEN has been moved by one person to non-MUSIC. The move hasn't been approved by all parties, and it can still be moved back. But we need support. Could you go to the following thread and post that you want it moved back to MAIN? Also, could you get anyone else you can think of to also post in that thread, asking it to go back to MAIN? It's the biggest thread in the site's history and it's been a great place for shearing sheep and having lots of fun. We're worked really hard on it and it would be a super-favor if you and anyone else you can think of could post in there asking the Webmasters to move it back. It doesn't have to be an angry post...just a request and maybe a statement of how much you love the Pen. We need all the support we can get right now.
Thanks man.
Erik”
“Awesome posts you and Dave did. That was great. Can you guys also do me a favor and put the same posts in the FEEDBACK TO THE WEBMASTER thread "The Pen does not belong in Main"? That's where the Webbies will look. Posts in there will really help!! Thank buddy.-pRikk

I'm talking the '77 demos, outtakes from the Dave albums (I know for a fact there are a few unreleased and probably finished songs from DIVER DOWN and 1984 and probably one or two that have been written about from VH II), plus alternate takes or versions from these albums. Then you can move on to live stuff...there was apparently a 1984 live album that was recorded and partially mixed. Put some of that on this set (or ALL of it). Then move on to 5150 and the other albums, all having unreleased songs (there are maybe six from F.U.C.K., "I Want Some Action" from 5150 and a few from BALANCE). Get BETWEEN US TWO on a record finally, throw in the outtakes from VH3 and the second MACH III album if you have to, then close it off with the three tracks recorded with Dave in 2000. Done! That's more than enough for a box set if you throw in some retrospective live material and maybe a couple of Eddie demos.
