    I think Ed is done with it to be honest. Vallerie Bertinelli said the only reason the last tour happened was Ed wanted to play on stage with Wolfie and that was the only reason. She said other than doing that he had no motivation to go on the road and was pretty much done with it. I don't think Ed Van Halen makes big long-term plans and kind of is in his own world. He leaves everyone hanging. I have the gut feeling Ed isn't going to go out on the road anymore. I think Val was right. He did his thing with Wolf and Wolf seems to be doing his thing with younger bands.

      I dunno, I'm gonna say my glass is half full after reading that....

      But I have to say, I find it refreshing that Dave talked so much about Mike....

      THAT'S the true reunion people want to see....

                    The problem with this is that what Dave wants is completely unrealistic given the current state of the band. I also didn't see any mention in the interview of Eddie's recent health scare, so in some ways this could turn into another rehash of the "Tonight's about me, not your fucking hip" fiasco. Hopefully not. But I hear what you are saying.

                    For the record, EVH was EDDIE FUCKING VAN HALEN on the last tour.

                      I really wouldn't get overly excited one way or the other....

                      All we're doing is reading Dave's words, we can't see his mannerisms nor his inflections in his voice....

                      Meaning, we really don't know if he was speaking in a "doom and gloom" manner, as if he doubted they would EVER do anything....

                      So I'm just gonna take the article at face value, and nothing more....

                          Edward Van Halen has deep psychological problems.

                          That much is apparent.

                          Big Brother probably doesn't push him more because he doesn't want to make things worse for his flesh and blood. Shit, they don't need the money...especially not after the reunion tours.

                          Watching how Dave, Michael and even Sammy act concerning Ed reminds me of how some of my friends and I acted with a friend of mine 'bout ten years ago who had mental problems. We switched back and forth between optimism, nostalgia, impatience (and patience) and downright rage.

                              I think there's a bit of a sentence or more missing there ... THAT could put a totally different slant on the pessimism.

                              What the heck did he share with Al Van Halen!! (Apart from Al's first wife ...)

                                I really don't forsee anything happening to VH until after the Japan/Australia tour in the summer. Eddie Van Halen said HIMSELF that he'll be making music until the day he dies.

                                If and GOD FUCKING FORBID This is a buildup for a 2014 Van Hagar reunion, then I'm sorry but Eddie's a fucking idiot for making that decision. Why would Ed want to put himself in the same position he was back in 2004? Sammy fucking abused Eddie that entire tour with his lack of personal support for his drinking problem and using a name of a song that Sam and Eddie wrote TOGETHER (Cabo Wabo) and used make money selling fucking tequila.

                                I'm sorry, but if VH dosen't still have Dave in the band by 2014, they should just quit while they're on top.
