      The phrase "He basically played on bass what Eddie would tell him" is the key part to me. I have no doubt the video camera aspect is at the very least embellished, if not blatantly lied by EVH, but obviously Sam knows at some level what Ed was talking about....

      But I agree with you WARF, there was no reason to bash Mike like that, especially since Mike has always stayed above the fray of this bickering, and I have no problem with Sam defending him....

      But his book confirms that maybe he was defending Mike just a bit too much, and that at least some of what EVH was saying had some truth to it....
      Well included in the same interview Ed claims he did all his partying alone locked in his room which is where he wrote all this material... So in order for Mike to be able to perform these new songs... someone might have to show him what was produced.

      Also if Ed spent his alone time drunk as a skunk and all jacked up on coke writing these master pieces... I'm sure once he emerged from his cave he immediately sobered up and I'm confident that he retained great clarity of all his band interaction memories. I can see this whole matter getting sorted out with Ed...

      Ed: I swear Mike had to video me showing him how to play every note!!

      Al: When did this happen?

      Ed: Right before we released 1984... that fucker was following me around with a camera for hours asking me how to play!

      Al: Ed that wasn't Mike... that was the video crew and we were making the Jump video...

      Ed: Huh?

          Can you imagine what would happen if someone sent Ed a link to this thread? Now I'm not suggesting anyone should do it - I'm just saying it would be hilarious. But don't do it. That wouldn't be nice.

          Screw you, Ed. Ya know, just in case.

            This thread will drive Ed back onto the Smoking Loon.

                  Dave should do the interviews. Keep the matches away from Ed.

Which one is it, Spammy? The only reason why that article went viral in the first place is because you are such a fucking attention whore and you think it's all about you. You really are the psycho ex-girlfriend of Van Halen.
                      Say what you want about Sammy, but you're still talking about him. positively or negatively, he's still in the spotlight to an extent.

                        You don't think shiny horse-teeth "Makeover Ed" isn't weird or creepy?

                          Idiots online are now blaming the interviewer for butchering the interview in favor of Hagar!

                            Not as much as jazz-hands grandpa, no. He needs to reel it in a bit.

                              Sam is a flaming bag of dogshit, yet Eddie Van Halen manages to make him look like a prince in comparison...

                                Reel it in? I don't think you can reel in that much gayness. The only thing he could do to be gayer would be to start wearing full on Liberace costumes and borrow some sunglasses from Elton John!
