can I be in the room with them?

Well, I suppose this is the "same ol' question", but what an ENTICING question it is... it's like the opportunity to get back in the sack with the hottest chick you ever banged for one-or two-last shags... CVH reunion... jees, folks, we ALL know that it'd be one hell of an asskickin show, provided Dave can get the other clowns into fighting shape... which if there's ANYONE who can do it, it's DAVE! Top that off with NO VANHAGAR material, and we could all Dance the Night Away in the one last shot at glory they might have before Ed croaks...If you listen to fools

If you break down the
collective sentiment regarding the brilliant initial post, one thing is painfully obvious. The van hagar brand is intollerable to the point of forgetting the point.
The lack of conflict is creating conflict so deep you need a yacht to sail around in it.
There is one simple reason for the continual disgust and disillusionment regarding David Lee Roth rejoining Van Halen.
You know what it is?
It's the absence of David Lee Roth in Van Halen.
Wade through the fucking irony...that's what we're all doing.
Conflict and irony go hand in hand, and separation is devastation.
It's ironic how the absence of conflict has spawned nauseating music as well as intercontinental backlash regarding it.
Make no mistake, there's only one way to say goodbye as far as the Van Halen legacy goes.
Let's hope for one last dose of the conflict that makes the ironic sound like we all remember it.Comment

If the VH's got it together with DAVE, I'd be in the front row with a bottle of Jack, 2 hot Girls, and a fuckin' flamethrower!! We'd party like it's the night before the fuckin' apocalypse!!If you listen to fools

Only the sheep-diehards(if any) would bitch about a CVH reunion. I don't think there's ANYONE loyal enough to ROY that'd they'd bitch about Dave coming back...Originally posted by badhorsie
I dont even think i care anymore.
No matter what anyone does they will never win since the "fans" will bitch either way.
"Oh no! They're not gonna play 'Dreams' or 'I Can't Stop Lovin' You'??? I hate them!!"If you listen to fools

Well that is your opinion. Dave doesn't share your thoughts however. Remember reading classic rock magazine and Dave saying and his exact quote was "I actually consider that chemistry a positive force, one that could bode well for the future. We could pick up the gauntlet tomorrow. I'm completely up for that, always have been"That sounds to me that Dave wants another chance to reconcile.Originally posted by Terry
Time to pack it in. It's no fun watching this car crash anymore. It's not really anything anymore. Van Halen is guilty of making people indifferent now. Just a meek way to end things the way they're going.http://img36.exs.cx/img36/3773/cheeserocker14ju.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y19...uncybouncy.gif

"Well, most regulars know what I think about Jump...So it'l be Dreams by a landslide"
" Feel Your Love vs. Good Enough-Something about the first time you ever heard Sam kick in with Ed, with that whole Hello Baby intro...plus, I love Good Enough. Not enough kudos go to this ripping tune"
"Me, I find myself wishing for a harder Sam album and tour."
"In no way is Roth in a Jagger-type league"
"(I'll Take You There) -Finally heard the damned song today. Gosh, all the hoopla. It's not a bad cover at all. They've done worse. At least Sam's puttin' out product. Another Cabo groove, that's all right by me."
"I'm goin' to Tahoe in August, fuck it. Sam, Mikey, and Vic cranking out a mixed bitchin' ass setlist? Sure, you betcha."
"Don't be a moron, Vinnie. Dave has said plenty to insinuate VH was secondary to his bitchin' ass self."

"Hall of Fame wants Dave in VH- Sam would get it with VH, whether people like it or not."
"Dave hosting radio show all next- LOL, yeah Dave said it, so it must be true."
"Oh come on. Who in their right mind takes Dave as serious artist? The man himself doesn't!"
"Dave may have been fucked over in '96, but him leaving in '85 was all his own doing. He walked out on the band, and that's that."
"Like it or not, the band had success post-Dave, and big success as well"

"Better album for a long drive?- BALANCE, its a longer album then FAIR WARNING and sounds pretty damn great in my stereo system."
"Dave is suing VH-he Dahm triplets and midgets wearing Andy Warhol wigs can get to be quite expensive"
"Umm, What exactly WAS Dave on during the '96 MTV VMAs?- Dave was being Dave and he no longer fit in with Van Halen."
"Sammy Hagar, the Mexican Legend-i had on my red sammy shirt from this past summer's tour and it got alot of attention."
LittleGuitars99 ( For the pure "STUPIDITY AWARD", this Sheep takes it by a landslide! )
“5150 vs. Eat 'Em & Smile-5150 by far, EMAS is a good record and Dave stacked that band, but you can have all the talent in the world, but if you can't write what good is it?”
“Dave hosting radio show all next week (Boston)- from one Dave lover to another, us poor Van Halen fans, what would we do without the Roth fans””Good old Dave talking trash about people as usual, and he wonders why he is a nobody nowadays..What a class act talking about people`s wives, kids, fathers etc..Then his made up numbers on the 04 tour...Sounds like he hasen`t changed”
“Dave was comparing the 2 "Best of" Album sales-no internet and file sharing, downloading etc, if that was today those two Roth tunes would have been download by the majority of the fans before the album even hit the shelves”
“DLR Radio Gig - From Inside Radio-Boy, I sure hope they have a extra shipment of hand cream and Kleenex over at the Army”
“Not Enough is a brilliant song, ballads wise I am very happy they put this song out, from beginning to end it is some great writing”
“what was the best VH tour?- For stage it had to be 1984, for atmosphere, easily the outdoor RHRN tour”
“Diamond dave or Sammy?- BOTH are important to the legacy of this band, I prefer Sam”
“Hall of Fame wants Dave in VH-OK, try and compare Dave`s contibution to music history to Ed`s is plain foolish, they are not in the same universe”
“Wasn't Dave's head so big at the time, he wanted to do a movie, and them to wait? He made the movie or part of it and they didn't it get shelved? It was suppose to go along with Crazy From The Heat. Still don't see what your big obsession is about Ed and Al drinking, when Dave is a fucking snow blower to the greatest extent”
“VH ticket prices weren't too bad-The tour was well done, for the price of the tickets the setlist was good”
“Daves Quitting Anniversery I was in total shock when I heard as they were on top of the world (no pun intended) at the time, I remember my dad laughing going "now that that idiot is out of the band they might get some respect", at the time the most recent Sammy tour was the VOA, so when I saw the picture of him in that yellow jump suit or whatever the hell it was, I was like uh oh.. but things happen for a reason and it all worked out for the better.”
“OU812MAX at the ARMY!- U have to be kidding, he is one of the few guys (mods) from over there that is cool over there and here, he keeps things civil....Brett sign him up!”
“Diamond Dave on tour again -Dave will keep touring and doing shows, he is just keeping himself up to speed, As much as I wouldn`t want to see it, a reunion with Van Halen and Dave is never out of the question as long as the members are living, money is the root of all evil”
SuckaInA3Piece
“Source Of Infection-Anybody give this tune a try yet?
I hadn't been able to nail the intro for this song for about a year”
“DLR recorded Skyscrapper which is his cheesiest album if ya ask me. And don't even get me started on his cover of That's Life, or that piss poor of a blues/jazz song, I'm Easy.
Dave left, he fucked up, end of story.”
“I get to see Sammy and Mike next month”
“Last time I saw Sammy solo he and the Wabo's nailed Best Of Both Worlds. It was killer.”Comment

This thread should be titled "No other options left for VH than DLR"...they thing you hate the most you always end up needing...Diamond City boys.
What's funny is that "washed up" Dave has the most options. As his legend has been neglected, it has also been protected by not associating with this circus.
People always say it's Vegas for Dave and maybe so. But his skills are in the live crowd and audio/visual realms. I think Dave could do his own "fest" similar to Ozzfest. Ozzy has been able to become a godfather to some of the new bands (some of which TRULY blow), take it easier on himself, make more money (thank you sharon) and raise his profile with a whole generation of new kids. Dave could do that I think even better as his attitude, vibe and expertise in this realm are exactly what the world needs : Rock n Roll...REAL rock n roll. The all day events featuring Dave themed things : Martial artists, BBQ's, roving chicks, video screens etc....all creating a "mojo dojo" envoirnment for a day. Bands like the Darkness could fit this bill very well. A thought, certainly a way to go outside of VH.Last edited by Big Train; 11-13-2004, 05:38 AM.Comment

I know we all want one more Classic tour. But another real Van Halen album would be fucking cool consolation. Ed could get drunk and not have to display himself publicly each night.
Dave could call the shots.. I could dig it....BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
Love ya Mary Frances!Comment
