Do you know why Eddie broke his hand?!?!?! He supposedly took a swing at Dave backstage and Dave dunked and Ed hit the wall.

I always assumed there was an incident behind it, but had not heard that specific story.

I dont think of anybody in that band as a bad-ass fighter, but I think I would pick a fight with Ed or Mikey before I would take a swing at Dave or Alex. They both seem like pretty angry people sometimes, and those are the best fighters!

Though admittedly, Alex and Ed are always on the sauce, so they probably dont feel any pain when you punch them!

Ed was pissed at Dave becuase he found out he was screwing around with Alex's fiancee'. Ed saw Dave backstage and took Dave to the locker room area to talk to him about it. Ed probably hit one of those tile walls.

Well, if Eddie is up for reproducing Franky and touring with Roth, then it stands to reason he shouldn't feel wary of further embracing his past and putting out a CVH video/audio box set (and I stress CVH - there is plenty of authorized Van Hagar live video and audio out there already)...

Especially considering there will be no new CVH music forthcoming. If you're gonna DO a nostalgia trip, you might as well go for broke, open those vaults and get all of that stuff out there.

Are you positive about that -- cos that was Oct 1982 when the hand was broken and I was under the impression that Al didnt get married to that chick until 1983 -- and found out about the affair a few weeks after the wedding......I know Kerrang didnt report that story until 1984.

I mean, I wouldnt be surprised if Ed took a swing at Dave in 82 -- just wasnt sure if the timing was right that the Al-Dave thing was the reason.

Thats what I read in some VH book.

Are there any pics of Alex's wife?

Not as long as they're doing reunion tours, laughing all the way to the bank.


MTV has it stored away somewhere where the film is going bad.

Truly a shame !

First saw them in 1980! AWESOME SHOWS! SAw them twice, they had a foreign film maker with the tour to shoot documentary and live for a movie like zep's "song"or who's "kids are alright" I would pay dearly for this if necessary!!
