Why won't VH do That Metal Show?

[ZahZoo]

Even if every member past & present including Mark Stone went on that show together... all gloves off... all subjects covered.

None of us would be satisfied for more than a day or so...

The next week someone will bitch about not having an official release of the Oakland live material... and the rest of the peanut gallery would be goin... Yeah and what about this or that or Largo or what the fuck ever...

Van Halen/DLR fans will never be satisfied... a little is never enough... hell, a lot doesn't even cut it. We want it all!!! And we'll be back tomorrow asking for more!!

Those guys on TMS are stuck in 1989. They have no material and those musicians who go on that show, for the most part, have nothing to say. They make lists of nothing, argue about things that don't matter, and have a fake "Stump the Trunk" segment.

They will let anyone on that show who is willing to do it. Living colour was on the show. They are metal?

Styx has been on TMS too. I'd say Living Colour is more metal than Styx.

What, Babe isn't metal?

It's still their fault. We wouldn't be the rabid jack asses that we are if they'd jam their product (no, not the frankenstriped flip flops and Galaxy 4 covers) down our throats like U2, KISS, Rush and many others do for their faithful.

I'd say Milli Vanilli is more metal than Styx.......

Which is more or less like debating "Who is more macho," Liberace or Richard Simmons?

Hmmmm....I'd say Liberace.

I just think when Dave got back in the band they all got together and decided not to even mention Spammy, which turns out to be a great decision. Just look how much of an idiot Spam has looked to the public, he looks like the true "Ex-Psycho Girlfriend".

Saying how much he hates Eddie one day, then the next day saying he loves him and wants him to get better and then he would like them to be friends again.

Saying that he would never consider reuniting with Van Halen one day, then the next day saying if they could work things out he would definitely consider going back.

It is the "Ex-Psycho Girlfriend" syndrome all the way and the public has picked up on it big-time.

I bet Dave would love to go on there and he has NEVER had a problem discussing anything with anyone, I'm sure it would be quite hilarious to hear his take on the Spammy bull shit. If they felt they could go on there and just discuss Van Halen without all the Spam crap, they would have probably done it already.

Judging on how Eddie Trunk just shat all over KISS on todays episode of That Metal Show without having the balls to mention KISS. He's too much of a fucking pussy to badmouth Dave even if he wanted to.

I get the impression... Dave, Ed and/or Alex have no interest in going on any show at this phase. Least of all motivators being to rehash any past bullshit.

As far as I can tell they aren't under any contract to produce anything... clearly none of them have any motivation to be actively "working" on anything Van Halen band related that they would want to share publicly or promote.

They got nothin to sell to the world right now... beyond cheap Chinese made flip-flops and phone covers...

Why the hell work if you don't "need" to..?

Because there is gonna be a time when won't be able to .
Am in the your getting old pull your finger out camp when it comes to our boys .

Dave would only have time to answer three questions because he'd take five minutes per skirting around the questions and tell Trunk nothing.

[Kristy]

When did metal die? Around 1989 or so? When did Van Halen die? around 1985 or so?


Do the math on this one, cretins.

[vandeleur]

A bit lost here hun , is the answer 4 ?

=VH= won't go on Eddie Trunk because he is lame. His favorite guest is Sammy Hagar. Hello!
