So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed.

He drove the car?...in 1996? You think he was DRIVING that car?Originally posted by Plexi Head
He drove the car in 97 and proved what we all knew in the first place. The chemistry of those 4 guys together (including the bass player that everyone loves to hate - me NOT included) was and is undeniable. How is it possible that CGTSNM and MWM sounded light years ahead of anything that band did since 1984? Further, how is it possible that they fucking did not realize this fact and take it further?
He fronted the band for two songs...don't confuse it as driving the car...
or it wouldn't have been such a fucking clusterfuck..."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

Dave's book makes it very clear that he wasn't driving that car at all. He barely found music he liked to sing on. Those two songs are excellent...ME WISE MAGIC is still my favorite Van Halen song of all time. But Dave was clearly taking orders from the drunk psychotic. He even had to have his lyrics and melodies approved. I can't even imagine anyone trying to tell him what to do in 1980.Roth Army Militia

I interpreted "driving the car" as Dave being the lifeforce that made the music unique and special.Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Thank you Rust...instead of closing them...just move them to chit chat...seriously..no need to close...when newbie morons will have conversations about themselves..."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 to Plexi-...
I could go into the exactness of the 2 songs in 1996...but I've done it so many damn times already...that I'm tired of it...
let me just say a a couple of things...
1. In 1985, you can pass along the blame to whomever you want. I've seen interviews from Dave at the time where he was definitively saying he was still in the band...waiting for everyone else to do shit...
even so...in 1985...there were 2 egos...that split the game up...
2. In 1996...EVH had a chance to make things right...Dave did too. Before Dave could do anything...right or wrong...Ed reared his anorexic ass...then did it again in 2000...although I'm sure in 2000...there was some Dave and the lawyers in there as well...although there's no proof...
3. I've heard Roth talk about the 2 songs in 1996...and various things from others in here on HOW much of the songs were Dave...but I 100% think that those songs are more NOT his...than his...or he'd perform them live. He doesn't...
They sounded as good as any tune between 1980 and 1985 that these guys put out...
but they WERE NOT put together in any way close to the way they were put together when they were actually together...
That being said...
Well...not sure what I was trying to say...
Not even sure that we disagree...
still chuckling over the lifeforce line though..."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
