It took a fucking dopey user with a chick flapping her tits in the air to make you see the light. Who the fuck knew!
Van Halen could've made it without Roth

What can I say...I see flapping tits...and it's over..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."Comment

ugh. This is ridiculous.
I absolutely agree Eddie and Alex would never have found such major mainstream success (and the accompanying longevity) without Roth. But it was an absolutely SYMBIOTIC relationship: Dave found a muse within Eddie's virtuosity.
What Dave did with his hands and feet, Eddie expressed with his hands. It made for an absolutely unique one-two punch.
Yes, Dave was the absolute focal point on the 1984 tour. Ever think maybe that had something with him being gone by the next tour? Dave thought he had reached a point where he was bigger than the band, and Eddie I think was just happy to be able start getting his shitty synthesizer pop tunes released to the public.
As Dave himself said in his book, "is it Mick or Keith? I don't know." with CVH, it was a 97-97 deal.
Eddie was ABSOLUTELY EQUAL to Dave as a focal point in CVH. remember "Eruption"? remember Ed winning best guitarist polls for a million years in a row? remember Ed being considered by lots of girls in my high school to be the cute one in the band?
Now without Dave, VH would've been another Journey or Loverboy (or, at best, an exceptional Def Leppard): a pop band with a hot guitarist and a shitty, embarrassing singer, with a bunch of songs that just age BEYOND THE PALE badly.
Brett has expessed he is primarily an EDDIE fan: well, that's cool. Whatever we all think of Ed as a person, hey, apparently Roth thought high enough of Ed's musicianship to be in a band with him.
and, let's face it, if the band were to reconvene tomorrow, we'd all wet our pants and have a huge group high five.
Brett included.Comment
