Will SWTD help, hurt, or KILL chances of a CVH reunion?

It used to be about Eddie & Dave. But Eddie has turned into the wicked witch of Coldwater Canyon. So now it's just about Dave. If Eddie cleaned himself up, it could once again be about Dave & Eddie.

On Howdy Doody Mountain, Take 2: Ed Van Halen opens his second bottle of Smoking Loon so far today. It is 11:00 a.m. Ed stumbles into Wolfie's room. "Look Dad," says Wolfie, turning his computer screen toward his father. It's the Strummin With the Devil website. Ed scowls, takes an extra-long pull on his bottle, and walks out silently.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico: Sammy has a reporter on the phone -- finally. It took his PR agent several hours to find one who was interested in speaking to the former Van Hagar frontman. "Roth owes me a lot. When I fronted the band, we sold 84 million records. When they were with Roth, they sold eleven -- no, not eleven million, eleven. As in one less than twelve, brother. What do you mean you don't believe me?!? I was responsible for all the sales of the back catalog. If anyone tells you different that's just jive man . . . . . Yeah I had some good times in the band, I mean it was nice having Eddie as my guitarist . . . . Hold on a second -- KARI PUT SOME MORE CHEESE ON MY ENCHILADA GODDAMIT YOU NEVER PUT ENOUGH CHEESE ON 'EM!! . . . Hey sorry man, had a little domestic thing there. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, so I've got a tour coming up and Mikey is joining me and there'll be tequila everywhere and it's all a lifestyle and no I don't rip off Buffett that talk is jive and . . . . . . . What do you mean you're not interested in hearing about my tour? I've got a new record man my redheads are all over it . . . . What? I got stories about aliens let me tell you my stories about aliens . . . HEY MAN, THIS AIN'T ABOUT ROTH IT'S ABOUT ME STOP ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT ROTH I'M DONE WITH THAT JIVE . . . [click!!] . . . Hello? Hello? Did you just hang up on me?

At Bass Player's House Bass Player looks at his wife Sue. "I wonder what Sammy thinks about this," he says. Sue looks up at Mike, "Honey, 10 years ago you would have looked at me and said 'I wonder what Ed thinks about this.' 25 years ago, you would have looked at me and said, 'I wonder what Dave thinks about this.' When are you going to learn to think for yourself baby?" Bass Player continues to look at his wife. He blinks a few times. "I better call Sammy."

That's some fine stuff right there...

The combo of 'Sammy' and 'jive' in any post is smile-inducing.

What Dave's currently doing will, IMO, have no impact on a CVH reunion whatsoever.

I seriously doubt Ed and Al have agreed to split the profits equally with Dave and allow him the input he deserves, heard this, and are now thinking "That's it! Fuck this!! No CVH reunion!!!"

Van Halen has been about Eddie Van Halen since Dave left. Understandable, because after Roth quit, EVH was the only interesting part of the group left.

But I was around and remember the CVH days, and got turned onto the band because of the guitar playing, and I can tell you the band wasn't always about Eddie Van Halen back then.

Anyone who claims otherwise has either a selective memory or a pro-Eddie agenda to push.

Eruption got everyone's attention....then motherfuckers' buy the album, AND FLIP IT OVER. (the cover)

I mean, there were 4 folks on the front cover, and the vinyl inside cuntained arguably the most dynamic guitar playing the world had ever heard!!!

Two LP's later, Helmet Neutron is responsible for bondage posters' included in a 21 day old command to abandon ship!!!

Blah-blah-blah....yadda-yadda.

Call me crazy, but the art direction might have had something to do with the FURY.

Don't get me wrong, I cherish the nature of virtuosos' kept in check.

Maybe the title (SWTD), could hit home?

Is anybody waiting at home?

There's a full moon out tonight, baby let's begin!

Does Eddie even remember CVH and touring with Dave?

Thanks for the heads up. I wouldn't have known that if you didn't post it.

Cocksucker. You are M.I.L. (missing in larg)

Think Ed being under the thumb of Ted T forced him to be more focused and structured back then, and kept a lot of his wankery in check, along with the clashes he had with Dave over material.

That's why so much of that CVH stuff is memorable: just focused flashes of brilliance born out of conflict. No room for laziness.

Bo Nozoz....you posted THE post of the week.


I say SWTD has made it even more impossible for there to be a reunion.


Why?

Because:

A) Once again Dave is getting all the press, one-upping Deadward and it makes him feel even MORE lividly inferior and worthless, enough so that he will set a new record for sobbbing....46 hours straight.

B. Once again Spambo The Ever Flatulent is stealing Deadward's thunder (SHUT THE FUCK UP JOSEPH P.!!!), and is even conspiring with the bass player to take away The Van Halen Name, Logo, etc. (why in the fuck do you think they wanted the bass player to sign away any claims to them and their fucking playtoys?)
Because in addition to being third-rate versions of sad fuckheads, they have become paranoid that somehow everyone is gonna try to steal their thunder.

Well guess what Peeps? In life there is a syndrome that occurs amongst some people where they are so frightened of something that their desperate actions to prevent it actually CAUSE it to happen!

Thus it is wif the bass player.

Fucking Deadhead is so egotistical and fucked in his head wif paranoia he decides he is not going to allow the bass player to tour with van hagar cause he thinks he is out to get him!

So not only does the bass player agree to his so-called "terms", he actually goes out on tour and spends the entire tour hanging with the flatulent one, increasing Deadhead's paranoia ten-thousand-fold.

THEN, this year the bass player actually does show he has balls by firstly going out on tour wif Spambo and playing in a van hagar/Van Halen cover band, and then exposing to the world even more about what a fucking asshole Deadhead is!

While at the same time, the never finished, totally unstoppable Uncle Dave CONTINUES to tour with his Van Halen cover band, while now ratcheting up the pressure by having some of Gnashville's finest demonstrate TO DEADWARD how HIS compositions would sound if Deadward were a dysfunctional hillbilly!

So not only does this throw this horrifying vision (to him) up in his face, now he is going to be assaulted by every news organization on the planet who will want to know how he feels about his stuff being played by country and bluegrass musicians. That is probably something that seems like him to be a mockery instead of a tribute, thus infuriating him even more.

He has probably already told several hundred news organizations to cram a bottle of Smoking Loon up their asses while cursing them out and screaming at them to just leave him the fuck alone!!

It is quite obvious that the more press Deadward gets (about anything to do with CVH) the more miserable he becomes.

Too bad he does not read our posts here....WE tell it like it is....and he can't handle the truth about his own idiocy....

But then, a case of Henieken will solve that.

And someday, if he keeps on smoking, he will have no tongue, and will not be able to verbalize how fucked in the head he is......well....he has a hard time doing that now wrapped around a bottle LOL!!!

Fucking loser......I wonder if we can ratchet up the pressure for a reunion to the point where he takes a flying leap off the Hollywood sign without a parachute?

DAVE OR THE MOTHERFUCKING GRAVE, BABY!!!
