Ed was a rockstar. The lucky ones have short amazing lives. If they don’t manage to die young and quick we get to see the slow pathetic demise. Some manage to clean up later in life but the magic is long gone. If Ed would have died young in an alcohol fueled cocaine binge in a bed full of whores he would be a bigger legend than he is now. Hendrix didn’t live long enough to reach the slow demise and have the pathetic crying breakdowns and drama that destroy good art. Jim Morrison did it right. Leave the country and die mysteriously and then get buried in a creepy old cemetery your family have zero ties to. No family plot. Jim came here, died and here he is. We had to fence him in because the motherfucking fans leave wierd shit, fuck on top of the grave and tag the place.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Used to be for sure. Remember back in the day when we would have so much activity it was unbelievable? Thank Fagbook and its supporters like NickDlibtard for ruining the great forums like this one.
I'll agree with you. Fuck Ed for every one of your valid points.
But I'll throw a fuck Dave in too. That dumbass has never been able to get out of his own way. He could have been more humble in 1996. He could have done more, much more, to make 2007 on more productive and better quality. Especially from 2012 on.
Fuck you Ed.
Fuck you Dave.
You both fucked up the greatest band in the history of rock and roll. Now you've both left it in the hands of a fat fuck that despises those of us that were there in the beginning. I have said for many many years, this is the hardest band ever, to be a fan of. They have fucked over their fans 6 ways to Sunday, time and time again.
It was much better when websites were ran by one or a few people and they moderated the forums. Not high tech corporations with an agenda. Social media is a data mine and a social influencer.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Shit. I will finish by saying Fuck You Wolfie you fat fuck! I’m tired of the brat. I will say fuck Jimmy Page to save Kristy the trouble.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Yeah, we're led to believe that.
Sounds sort of like that feeble excuse Ed made after the news that his son was now playing bass joined, that since Mike was playing with Hagar he couldn't also play with Van Halen when they got back with Roth in 2006.
Would have been closer to the truth if Ed just flat-out said he didn't want to have Michael Anthony in the band anymore and would rather play with his kid.
Ed didn't even want Anthony to play on the 2004 tour, so I highly doubt it was Anthony failing to pay proper condolences a year after the 2004 tour ended that ended up being the final straw. Ed just had no more use for Michael Anthony, and probably didn't have any particular use for Anthony as far back as that unpublished 1982 interview where Ed said Anthony basically contributed nothing but still got an equal share. Even as recently as 2015, where Ed was saying his background vocals were just as important to the CVH sound as Anthony's and that he had to teach Anthony everything Anthony ever played...yeah, considering all that it wasn't a surprise Anthony didn't get a final call from Ed. I mean, they hadn't played together or even as much as spoke to one another for 15 years.
Taking all of that into consideration, had Ed's health permitted I'll bet even if the band had asked Anthony to do a tour in 2019 they would have had Azoff make Anthony some lowball financial offer...probably less than Wolfgang had been making.
Lot of things went wrong with Van Halen over the years, but I tend to doubt Anthony was the cause of any of 'em.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Why this place slowed down was you could get bootlegs and videos at other sites like YouTube. Also the excitement around Van Halen and a reunion wained due to too many false starts and then Ed being so fucked up. Most fans just blew it off. By the time a reunion with Dave really happened people were burnt out and probably pissed Mike wasn’t on tour. Oh the fat brat is going to sing backup and play bass. Fuck that. I’m saving my money, staying home and will masturbate instead.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Mike gets fucked in the ass because he likes a good ass fucking. Why do you think he’s around Hagar all the time? Sam digs Mike because he feels like a dominant male when he pegs the gimp. You know how losers are when they finally find someone they can boss around and ride their ass. In Sam’s case it’s literal.
In the end, who had Anthony's back? Not Roth. Not the Van Halens. Hagar did. If you were Anthony, out of those 4 who would you consider to be worth hanging out with? The three guys who didn't give a shit if you were there or not vs. the guy who appreciates what you brought to the table as a player and likes hanging out with you as a bud?
Seems a pretty easy determination to make were I in Mike Anthony's shoes.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Fans got older along with the band. While I was stoked in 1996 at the possibility of a reunion, by 2006 I wasn't nearly as stoked; when Roth finally rejoined it had more of a feeling of Van Halen having run out of options and the whole biz being several years too late, in addition to Anthony not being part of the proceedings which made it feel at best 75% of what I wanted.
In addition to everything else external from the site, it should be said that the sheer amount of asshole trolls and flame wars when the site had its highest volume of posting traffic...more than a few hardcore members tired of the assholes as time went on, left and didn't come back. Good riddance some may say, but more than a few real good peeps said sayonara because of that.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

I'd buy all of that.

For me when Dave finally rejoined in 2007 I was still stoked. Yeah it was disappointing that it wasn't a true CVH reunion but after all it was always "Dave or the Grave" so I stuck by that.

The flame wars were fun to watch...from a distance. I'll admit to getting some rubbernecking enjoyment out of it.
The Links I was aware of. Had been on the site once or twice to look around, but it was way too pro-Eddie Van Halen for my taste. To the point where you couldn't say anything remotely critical about Eddie or the state of the band without a million people dousing you with the Eddie Kool Aid. Plus, there was nothing going on there that I couldn't get here in terms of content I wanted, or quality posts. Am assuming you're talking about the Van Halen Links site.
I actually migrated over here from slawterhouse to ddlr.com and then this place.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

The DDLR going on too long but also not going on long enough is a complicated and not very interesting story but I can confirm as I'm sure Nick actually knows that Von didn't erase it. We just got to a point where it was going to cost too much. The only surprising/disappointing thing for me about it was how many people didn't just come back here for whatever reason. Anyhoo keep the thread back on topic...Comment

It's not all just about Facebook and Twitter I see Bulletin boards for sports teams still do pretty well as it's good to have a place to meet with like minded people about something you really like and rant shit without worrying if your boss or Aunt May is going to be disturbed about it.Comment
