    Everybody Wants Some!!

    I'm not sure if this is a repeat thread or not. If so just delete it. Anyone out there read the new Van Halen book "Everybody Wants Some, The Van Halen Saga" I assume it's new to the shelfs because they go as far as the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame this year. I'm about half way through, pretty interesting. Curious what anyone who has read the book thinks.

        Looking forward to this book.
        It was discussed a while back and sounds really good.

        Nice to have so many good things happening in VH land at the moment.

          Ah yes! Almost nothing for 22 years, and now we have everything at the same time...

          I think I'll have to buy it in English, as "Crazy from the heat". I won't complain, except for fucking French publishers's worthlessness - Dave's book was never translated into French, and I'd bet "Everybody wants some" won't be either.

          Sometimes I feel like doing it myself.

              I have to pick the book up as well, I've heard there is also another VH book coming out in November.

              I like to see a "Crazy From the Heat 2" come out with Dave talking about events in his life that happend, since the first book got published, but we all know how busy Dave is these days.:D

                    I finished it a few days ago. Great book. It covers the RRHOF so it is pretty much right up to date. Not that I'm a Van Halen historian like a lot on this site but there is a shit load of stuff that I didn't know about the band. A real good read for any VH fan.

                      Dave was supposed to be working on a follow up to CFTH called The Tao of Dave. More stories, anecdotes and philosophies from the Diamond One.

                          Could anybody correct that goddamn silly mistake in the title of this thread at last?

                          Cheers!
