Yeah Val, he was so happy with his marriage that is why he drank more and screwed groupies left and right.

Mezro...more like the booze kept him in a "miserable place" and Dave tried to structure his life to save him...

Well, I think right there explains why she favors a reunion today.

Back when she and Ed first hooked up, she could only see from the perspective of someone deeply in love with a deeply flawed alcoholic.


Now that Dave has not been an active part of Ed's life for over 20 years, and she herself is older and wiser, and left Edward, she can see that Ed created his own miseries and she can see that maybe Dave wasn't such an evil fuck after all.

Dave DID take a lot of cheap shots towards her back in the day, from things said, to not allowing her or any of the wives to come along on tour.

And that goes right back to Dave managing the "brand."

Mezro...wild rock gods are not supposed to be married...it takes away the edge...

I agree! It was all for the benefit of the band, and it all helped Ed afford his fucing Ferrarris! (

(I think this is somehting that over time Val has also come to appreciate)

Man, if thats a reason shes pissed at Dave, she is as thick as Sam.

Why the fuck should the wives go on tour with the band? They will only get in the way and stop the guys doin whatever the fuck they want!

How many other bands do you know of that include "wife" on the equipment list?

Sorry to bring an old thread back up, but the full interview is a nice read...


DB: Was David Lee Roth jealous that Ed had found himself a famous girlfriend?
VB: I think he was jealous that Ed had fallen in love and was happy. I feel Dave tended to keep Ed in a miserable place and liked him there because he could control him that way. But when Ed became happy and more independent, Dave couldn’t control him anymore. Dave likes control.

DB: Do you dislike him more than Ed does?
VB: Yes. Ed has a bigger heart than I do. I won’t forgive Dave for what he did to the man I love. Ed will. I like revenge, Ed doesn’t. It might’ve sounded that way when they first broke up, because Ed was really hurt. That man just took everything away from him.

DB: What about Dave’s charges that Ed does a lot of drugs and drinks too much?
VB: The man should start looking in the mirror. I do think Ed smokes too many cigarettes, and he does drink too much sometimes.

DB: Who was the first to say "I love you"?
VB: Ed was.

DB: Were you in love with him then?
VB: After he said it, I knew I was. I knew I was feeling something very different for this man; something I’d never felt for anybody else.

We were in Phoenix and we’d known each other a month. Ed had just won best rock guitarist in Guitar Player magazine for the fourth time in a row, and he was so happy. He went to a sound check and Dave berated him. He said, "You think you’re fucking hot shit just because you won ...." And Ed came back to the hotel and started telling me this. I remember we had adjoining rooms and he was sitting in the corner of my room and started to cry. And I said, "What’s wrong?" I didn’t know how to handle it; I’d only known the guy for a month. He said, "Why do I have to be so lucky? Why do these things always happen to me? Why can’t Dave have some luck? Why can’t Dave get some attention? Then maybe he’ll lay off me a while." Then he just looked at me and siad, "I love you." And he was crying. I was like, "Oh, god, I love you too." For a man to say I love you, crying, it’s like, god … it was really sweet.

I think these two statements against each other a lot...

Valerie has said in the past that David Lee Roth was unhappy about Eddie’s relationship with her because David liked to keep Eddie in a “miserable place” because he could control him. Valerie has said she dislikes David much more than Eddie does, that she will never forgive Roth for what he did to Eddie.

Yes, Very positive...

HELL, yeah, that means VAL gets to go to the miserable places, and hella stay there, or have shit sent up!

She had the faker who played dupe, who dicked her, so she wants to hold ED's bitchin 'secrets' up her aging crack. How dirtbag-Joe intriguing. I bet Leslie West tagged her at a party and called her 'Mrs. Cartman,' when he shagged her.

Hungry like the woof, mofos. That schmaltz-bitch should get NAKED.

An AAAAH-chewww-Jew, if you must know.

How do we read this shit? Help yourself to MY dick, you crazy ho.

LOOK. I did the PLAYING, ok? Nice mouth, on you.

[DrMaddVibe]

"why do I have to be so lucky"?


LOL!!!!!!

[DlocRoth]

Why can't Dave get some attention?

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH

[thome]

This..........Thing.......... was the reason they could never get back together this ..............Thing.......... you all say you would Bang............... She, is, was and always will be the thorn in the side of any reunion concept........... YOKO BITCH!

Warped Eds mind for twenty years then left him for dead, i could see that in the little stanks eyes back on the tv show, yuk!

I was wanting to Rub Up on the Spikey Titted, Bubble Butt, Red headed
mom on that show .Now thier was some Pure Evil!

[Golden AWe]

[Big Train]

Let me get this straight, she fell in love with him when he was at his weakest, crying? YES, she is an enabler...she saw a big pile of enabling and said yes "I love you too". Interesting.

I'd hate Dave's quaterbacking as well. No whining..

[Big Train]

I also have the gut feeling the "you think your so hot'' comment is an incomplete statement. It probably went something like "You think your so hot winning awards, that you can keep passing out drunk in soundcheck or on stage. Keep doing the coke Ed. Really fucking nice. Let's get this show on the road!!!", sounds a bit more accurate to me from what we have seen in recent years.

[Vinnie Velvet]

Val was reading from the "Sam book of lies - the way to do it".
