Perhaps Dave should send his Ribfest guitarists over to 5150, to give Ed a refresher course.

Here here, or in this case hear hear...Toshi and Brian could whip Ed into shape or tear him into shreads. It all depends on Eddie. They could motivate him to the point that he'd have this blinding revelation that he WAS a rockgod OR...fall like Humpty Dumpty off of the wall trying to capture lightning in a bottle again.

If Dave is going to waste time with Eddie and Alice then i like to hear the live stuff he recorded on his last tour.

Easy Elvis!

Hey Elvis- easy on me I'm on your team bro. Well aware my friend -I don't need the scolding. You are a literal stickler hey? Here is what I Meant to convey. John was working with Rob Halford at the same time and Dave simply wanted him 1st in the day. John said he tracked with Dave at 6:00 a and Rob at noon. A pretty amazing schedule don't you think? Cheers!

[ELVIS]

Yes I do...

John is a true dedicated musician...

And as far as me, you'll get over it...


LMAO!

I'd like to think Dave is staying in shape, vocally and physically, does take some trips to 5150 every now and then, they may even rehearse some songs.

Dave may also be working with Alex and some others on potential VH projects (releasing rare video on DVD, concerts, etc.).

All in all, Dave is doing SOMETHING. He's not one to sit around.

[eddie78]

Man, i hope it's the latter!
I'd love to see a proper classic VH boxset delivered to me by Xmas.
It makes me sick to see a band as legendary & influential as VH have nothing but the usual on the shelves.
Even crap Jovi has his box-set!
WB should be shot for not forcing some action.
They own the good stuff, right?

Man...if only that were true.

But, realistically, Dave probably hasn't heard a word from anybody, much less been over to anyone's house. Remember, this is the Van Halen bros. we’re talking about here.

He probably is hoping and waiting, just like the rest of us. I'm sure he understands this will probably be the last time this could ever happen, so he is keeping low until he hears different.

Dave is working on the Polka version of "Strummin' with the Devil" with Frank Yankovic and his Polish Polka band.

Is it not possible that Dave and the Van Halens are good friends again and hang out, communicate regularly, and are possibly writing new material but are just waiting to be done with an album to announce a tour?

Quite possible.

Maybe they are going back to the 2000 sessions to see what can be worked on from there.

Who knows at this point.

DAVE SHOULD RECORD A HIP HOP VERSION OF A VAN HALEN CLASSIC, TO RE ESTABLISH HIMSELF AS A SOLO ARTIST. LOOK WHAT IT DID FOR AREOSMITH WHO WERE DOWN THE PAN UNTIL, WALK THIS WAY WITH RUN DMC. DAVE LOVES HIP HOP AND ALSO DANCE MUSIC. HE MADE SOME NEW VAN HALEN TRACKS IN 2000 BASED ON THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS
