Bullshit... you can't play revisionist history with reality... facts are facts. Mike's been just as vital part of Van Halen's history the last 30 years as anyone else in the band. Van Halen is what it was and that has always included Michael Anthony.

Note I said was... Van Halen the band doesn't exist presently.

Yeah so... Ed & Al have said they'd didn't want to work with Dave again a ton of times. They get a free pass? That 4 lane highway runs both ways.

You really take anything these bozos say in an interview seriously??

[jgdrag]

Actually, the interview is from bass players yap (see 96 interview)

We never gave Ed or Alex a pass, ever!

Vocally, he did play a pretty big part.

WTF is with the Mike bashing??
He showed respect on stage and did well. Do any of you Fucksticks think you could put up with the Sister's BS for 30 years??

Uhhhhh......

We HAVE put up with the sisters' BS for 30 years. Or 23 years, at least.

At NAMM he was trashing Ed, calling him a fucking asshole and telling people that they could play Eruption better than Ed now.

Back that shit up with a fucking recording of Mike saying that. You're full of shit. It's fucking spewing out of your ears.

Showed respect my ass. Doing that stupid "stretched asshole" 5150 sign with Sam was beyond gay.

Mike should be GLAD he put up with Ed for all those years! He didn't thank Eddie and Dave enough, being the BITCH that he is.

I'm sure Mike likes to drive his fast cars and appreciates the high lifestyle he and his family enjoys, no??

He wouldn't have gotten ANY of that had he not played bass in Van HALEN.

FACT.

Speculation.

Like I have any desire to prove anything to you. Believe what you want and enjoy life in Fantasyland where you believe Michael Anthony is an angel. FAR FROM IT!
