Hell, I am depressed about it. Like the rest of you I have been waiting to see the real Van Halen again, but nooooooooooooooo Ed and Alex are a couple of dicks who don't give a shit about the fan base.

I have lots of music, but you'll find me running around with Van Halen playing all the time. My name is synonymous with VH among my friends because they know how much I dig CVH and they hear it whenever they are over for food, drinks and other things. I'm pissed and depressed!

I saw the Spammy tour in 2004. It SUCKED. I went to see ED play. Guess what, the motherfucker was too drunk and played like shit. The man stopped to say, "Sorry, I fucked up. Let me try that again." He continued to suck and blow throughout the show. I cannot believe I said that here because I love Van Halen.

When you have thousands of fans eagerly waiting for you you don't do these things:

Show up late

Show up shit faced

Play in a way that even I can blow you away with my acoustic that only has 5 strings on it.

Wear a yellow bananna suit and call yourself the Red Rockette

There is more, but...

The 2004 show was a joke.

Here it is 2007 and there is word that the GREAT DIAMOND DAVE is going to tour with the sisters again. Motivation skyrockets for many throughout the world, especially for me.
Rumors pile up, excitement builds, and all I can talk about with friends and while pleasuring the wife is Van Halen is coming to town and the show will be 15 minutes from home. "Wahoooooooooo....you're getting it to Mean Streets at the concert baby!)

Now we have Wolfie replacing Mike, we are (pretty sure) we're getting DLR, Ed is quoted saying, "We are ready to play whoever the singer is"
and the hits keep coming.

Will I see them without Mike. Yep. But it's just wrong. Will I see them without Dave. HELL NO!

Van Halen has done nothing but shit on their fans for a looooong time and I am depressed about it. But I'm getting over it through anger.

Fuck you ED & Alex. You assholes don't deserve your fans loyalty and I'd love to tell you face to face!

There are always Lawrence Welk reruns to look forward to.

I never liked Sam's voice or his music or anything about him really.

Dave is back in Van Halen and I'll go see them play all the CVH songs that Dave and Ed wrote.

[DLRdelight!]

can we only really credit dave and ed??? i mean what if van halen didnt have a drummer like alex playing the way he did and instead had a weak no impact drummer. what if there was no high backup vocals. can you really imagine van halen without al's style and mikes back up vocals. we all know dave and ed together are the greatest, but you have to admit that each member had their own input that truely made van halen what it was

I dont think Al is the greatest drummer. Imagine Ray Luzier on CVH.

Elvis and Lounge... Forever the optimists... lol :p

At least Elvis is usually grumpy so it's to be expected. lol



As for Lounge, I cannot reitterate it enough. The fact being that he's just bitter that he didn't get the gig over sPED's kid. :p

Nah, would've turned it down on principle

All I need is to read 30 threads about why VH would suck with me onboard. :D

Mike or the Tyke ?

I choose Mike.

Bring back MiA

Most of us don't need to "imagine" it, stupid.

We've seen it.


Do you even bother to think before you post?

Man, the Doom and Despair around here rises like the Great Flood.

DAVE IS BACK, PEOPLE. Get on the yacht and sail right through this crap. It's all... "Oh, I thought the yacht would be yellow" or "Hey, where's the little cocktail weenies? It's not a real cruise without the little weiner."

I submit that the DLR Army quit bitchin' about the little weiner. Let's concentrate on the filet mignon that Ed, Dave, RRHoF and PR porn queens are trying to serve up.

The "reunion" won't be perfect, but hey, =VH= never really was. Eddie (and dearly departed Val) hated Dave before "Fair Warning" came out. Not a bad little effort either. You can quote it, you can dance to it... I give it a 102.

I feel your pain and well said.

On the upside, make a wish, blow and the wish should be for VH to get their act together with the original four. If your wish doesn't come true, you can again blame ED. In the meantime, have a Happy Birthday!

[LoungeMachine]

I reserve the right to blame spED anyway....

for any number of things.

CVH legacy?

I blame ed


Global Warming?

ed.

High cost of meth in LA ?

ed.


Bad porno music?

ed.


Crimes against Rock and Roll?

ed.

[ZahZoo]

Black/dark comedy... something to be depressed about... crimes against R'n'R...

I guess it's all the above and none of the above.

Since nothing in reality has actually happened... this whole thing is just a product of our imaginations and subject to whatever psychosis our wacked out brains manufacture!!

Knowing this crowd... the sky is the limit and the gudder is never out of reach!!!

I have gone to the mountain.

There I made fire and sent smoke to the sky.

I spoke to the fox, the deer, and the eagle.

The bear, cougar, and rabbit told me much.

The fish would tell me nothing. I ate him.

"Anger leads to the dark side of the force," they warned.

"Loudly Van Halen played must be," they whispered.

I am come down from the mountain and it is good.
