Yeah, but by that logic, Roth should have been able to perform the same function for Steve Vai when Eat 'Em And Smile came around, rather than just let Vai basically jack off with his instrument as fast as he could for solo after solo. Thus, while I don't undercut Roth's contributions to Van Halen, the idea that he needed to tell Eddie what to play because Eddie wouldn't have figured it out otherwise...it's a bit much, don't you think?
Ed was more than adept at constructing songs, coming up with riffs, rhythms and hooks and the like. Sure, one imagines Roth would suggest putting riffs or rhythm parts that Eddie came up with in a different order at times. That's a far cry from how Dave was coming off in the interview at times, where he was kinda trying to portray himself as the "Mastermind of Van Halen." It's like, take a break from your ego, Dave: we all know how important your contributions were to the band...no need to oversell it.
Ed couldn't construct a song to save his life? So, in terms of Van Halen's biggest single, Jump...Dave didn't even LIKE that tune. Ed came up with it and Ed had to push to have it recorded...still sticking by your theory, there?
That's it.
And that's not enough to get you a #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 5 weeks straight.Last edited by Vinnie Velvet; 09-23-2019, 08:56 AM.=V V=

So, yeah Ed can't write a song and never could.
He writes riffs, solos and jams.
To put together a song is a different thing.=V V=

Seems like VH did have a festival type/stadium thing planned for summer this year (with Mike) but it didn't work out while Dave had the Vegas residency in his back pocket if the VH gig didn't happen.=V V=

Well he doesn't look 2 years away from death. But a lot can happen health-wise in 2 years I guess.
Hope he is fine and healthy and just being a Dutch asshole.sigpic" You ever notice when I scream I sound like Mr. Bill on acid" DLRComment

You can tell he works out. He’s got pretty good muscle definition, his color is good and he’s got a healthy demeanor. I would imagine he’s got a personal trainer or maybe his wife makes sure he does his exercises and eats well. No Ed looks fine. He’s clearly taking care of himself now.No!

Ed is awsome! The shitbird with camera should leave him the fuck alone. When he hid behind the tree (which was fokking hilarious) the guy should have stopped.
Ed is a gentlemen just doing some shopping.Comment

Either an over obsessed fan or a paparazzi who is a fan or not very good at asking questions. Yeah. The guy was an ass noodle for sure. Very annoying. Ed hiding behind the tree was pretty funny.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment
