Some interesting trademarks registered to Dave... Appears all have been abandoned. But it covers cologne, aftershave and clothing lines for the 2015-2019 time period.

Wasn't there a time when Dave got himself involved in MLM campaigns? That's an act of desperation right there.Comment

I’ve started a few businesses. The odds are against you so you really have to be in the game full time. I thought Dave had some good ideas and an interesting niche market to target but he never seemed to promote it after he started it. Your business will die if you don’t water it and business is simply working with people. You have to have good partnerships or you are done. Dave seems to have problems there. He’s the class clown. He’s Jeff Spicoli. That’s great for entertainment, not so great in management.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Maybe the ideas didn’t stink. The promotion sure did. The marketing sucked. Several entertainers have created successful brands but you have to be in the game. Dave started something and walked away.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Dave bought the Amway starter kit and then went off and got high. Ha! Ha!No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Dave could have portrayed himself as an avid outdoorsman and when he’s kayaking or climbing mountains he uses his products. Outdoors sports are huge today. I live in an area where all that stuff is a huge part of our economy. Where was Dave? He could have sold a shit load of product in Jackson Hole alone. David who?No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

No idea if his cologne line stunk or not... But you are correct promotion is at the heart of the failures. Again... poor management raises it's ugly mug.
All these years of claims that it was Dave's business hustle that was part of the genius that drove Van Halen to the top... One has to question those assumptions in the last 20 years as Dave's results don't add up to success. Maybe Dave was great at hustling keg-parties and bar gigs. Appears he doesn't have the legs to keep up in larger ventures.
Hell... even the Bass Player™ has a successful hot sauce business and EVH is still sellin striped flip-flops and under britches..."If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment

Outdoor sports are huge now. Tattoos are big. I see a bunch of tatted up people here doing all the outdoors stuff. Dave could have sold them some product but they didn’t know about it.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Bass Sobowleski sells a mean hot mustard sauce. That’s worth buying.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Every celeb has a hot sauce.
Or a barbeque sauce.
Or a clothing line.
Or an alcohol line.
Or a perfume.
Or a podcast.
Celeb endorsements have become so ubiquitous as to be meaningless.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Maybe Dave should sell Van Halen mailboxes??

I believe frog motif mailboxes would be a very limited market...
WVH wouldn't allow the striped pattern even though Dave invented it..."If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment
