        Too funny.

        Gee, Mikey, maybe getting bombarded by questions about Roth while you're in the midst of a Van Hagar tour is...I dunno, some kind of a sign?

        Bet cho' ass nobodys gonna be asking about Hagar if/when CVH reunites.

            Why wouldn't people ask about Dave, Sammy was of no interest to the masses.

            "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."

            “I will be there with my Dad. Pretty cool because he took me to my first Van Halen show when I was in 7th grade. From then on, I was hooked on Sammy”
            “Um, I am willing to bet Eddie is does not have the most cash, I think with the way Cabo has taken off and the constant touring, Sam has him beat”
            “I was at the first show in Greensboro, and then a month later at JLA. The difference was unreal. The boys were perfect that night and the crowd, was quite possibly the loudest I have ever heard”

            "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."

            “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”

            “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”

            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.”

                    Extra! Extra! Read about it! Hit Parade magzine's new issue has a great. great VH article. It covers the history of Van Halen. From David to Sammy and to today.

                    Baiscally, the article talks about how with David, they change rock music when they came out. They talk about David being a great frontman and how Eddie is the best guuitarar of his generation. They mention about how some fans will only accept original line-up.

                    Then they talk about how Sammy replaced David and VH would "enjoying the heights of commercial acclaim." It mentions how with discs like OU812, 5150 and Blance, the reconstitued quartet turned into hard rock equivalent of McDonald-serving millions around the globe.

                    They talk about 96 and eveything that happen. Hiring Gary and they end te article about 2004. It say's "And when it was anounced that the band would reurn to the road for the first time in five years ( and the first tim in decade with Hagar at the helm) ticket sales went through the roof..." The 2004 tour was well recieved the article says.( See I told you.)

                    The artile ending interviews Eddie and it sounds like Sam is the singer for VH. They both don't hold grudges and Sammy has "Amazing voice..."

                    VH is Back! Hip! Hip! Hooray!!!

                    Oh, You Ate One Too?!? \m/\m/!!!
                    Way to go Tom...you de man

                                Alias? I could care less.

                                Signatures? About the only thing I ever employ is the occasional quote. I'd like people to focus on the content of my posts. Especially the shitty ones. The shitty ones are the majority....I know this.

                                When someone goes, "there's only so much you can do with a bucket of shit!"???

                                I go, "Let me take you higher!"

                                When someone goes, "Goddamn!...you motherfuckers' are beating a dead horse!"???

                                I go, "No animals were harmed in the making of this post!"

                                I do it all....every fucking bit of it.....without one goddamned flashing animated .gift underneath it all.

                                FUCK! I dunno if I'm braggin' or complainin'!

                                        Hey! Wait a minute! They failed to mention how the play-list sucked donkey balls! Start from Jump to When It's Cheese? 500$ for a front row seat/backstage tour? Funny how they cut out some of the true facts.
