    The whole Vegas schtick was one of Dave's biggest career missteps and flops.

    Yeah, I don't think Dave will go anywhere near another Vegas show. The problem was he wasn't David Lee Roth for those shows. He totally changed his persona. After a lifetime of building up the perfect character, he suddenly tried to reinvent himself.

      Dave jammed with Top Jimmy at the Cathay De Grande, a grubby basement club in North Hollywood in 1981. I think maybe a few times - but definitely not many.

      I have a pic of them onstage together, which is not often seen. I'll post it if I can find it.

        This rumor is the least plausible bullshit I've heard in a long time.

          I believe Lesfunk made the call...

            I'll have to take a listen.

            I record Trunk's show on The Boneyard...the best programed four hours on the Boneyard since the merger took The Yard's nuts...fucking Sirius repetition and narrow playlists now.

            Like posted...I know Trunk had talked a week ago about hanging with Neil during the super bowl in Vegas...I would think that is where it is coming from.

              I was supposed to send Eddie Trunk some UFO DVDs but forgot all about doing it.

                If you hear the show, post who that 3rd singer was supposed to be. Obviously, this isn't something that is going to happen but i think it is plausible that some promoter or casino came up with the idea. Making it fly, however, is an entirely different thing. There are always going to be people with money who come up with lame ideas that never materialize. I wouldn't even doubt that it is something that Vegas club owner Vince Neil put out there just to stir some shit up. Then again, he has a new solo album coming out so you wouldn't really think he would have any interest in something like this unless his band was going to be the backing band.

                  Sesh guessed it...Brett Michaels.

                  No way should Roth go on stage and share the same band as those other two IMO.

                  Trunk is a Sammy fan...but he always pays respect to the six pack. He was bang on too when he commented about the genius of those first albums...and how they stand up to anything put out today.

                    Does the 2002 Tour with Sammy Hagar count? In all fairness, Dave didn't even like Sammy, but he does consider Vince Neil a friend. I could see them doing a one off show together just singing cover tunes and jamming or something like that, albeit as more of a spur of the moment type of thing. Not sure who the third singer would possibly be, though.

                    But, with no official word about the status of Van Halen, we can only assume that what Eddie assumes about DLR is true and laying low so as not to ruffle Ed's feathers. As DLR mentioned in his Crazy From The Heat book, Ed DOES have selective amnesia.

                        I was listening to the Boneyard last night and Eddie Trunk said that he called Van Halen's management in an attempt to get Eddie on "That Metal Show" for VH1. He says he was told no and that Van Halen wouldn't be doing anything in the press for the foreseeable future. This leads me to the following thought:


                        Wake The Hell Up ED !!!!!!!!!!!

                          What the fuck! God that upsets me. Such a fucking waste. I feel so cheated by being a fan of this band. Throw us a bone for Christs sake Eddie. I'd even take a raw tape of you noodling while Dave burps the alphabet in the background.

                                I tried to call in to the show a couple of times last night to ask him if he had called Dave's management and tried to get him on the show. I never could get through but i am going to keep trying. Seems kind of obvious that Trunk is more of an Edward Van Halen fan than he is of any of the singers but if he truly wanted to get the scoop and Edward said no, then why wouldn't you call Roth and see if he would? If Dave said no, then that at least it would give you the idea that Van Halen is probably still a go at some point.
