What the?
He seems like a fine young fella. He can't help who his parents are any more than any of us.
I thank him for turning a seemingly distant impossible dream into a different kind of truth.
Happy birthday Wolf! See ya's in 2016Comment

Agree. It's some kind of miracle that Ed had a normal, well-adjusted, and responsible young man for a son. I don't really get the hate (especially after ADKOT) but whatever. Hope he had a great birthday!My karma just ran over your dogma.Comment

Those people would be the same ones bitching and moaning if Wolf HADN'T recommended getting DLR back, inevitably resulting in Bette's return....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

I don't think that's really the case... there are some folks that prefer the sound, look and general vibe of Van Halen's music with Mike on bass in the rhythm section and backing vocals. That was a definitive standard for over 30 years in the band. Quite frankly... it was one of the few things that didn't need fixing or alteration.
While many have complained that Mike's bass playing was overly simplistic... I don't share that opinion. His playing was so well integrated with Al's drumming it provided a superior platform to showcase Ed's guitar work and Dave's unique vocal melodies.
This is an area where Wolfgang is clearly lacking... both due to lack of experience and poor melodic rhythm. While some say he's a more technical bass player... honestly I find his wanking around and unnecessary fills and fretboard slides muddy up the rhythm portion of many VH classics. That's bullshit immature show-boating not showmanship!! Also his over distorted bass amplification in the live environment... pretty much sucks and sounds terrible. He should leave the fancy shit to his father and concentrate on providing a clean, solid foundation in the rhythm section.

With Ed in the band you don't need some hot shot Flea type bass player. Mike was perfect for Van Halen and Van Halen would be so much better if Mike was still in the band.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment
