reunion

[POJO_Risin]

I look at it this way...if it happens...it happens...don't think about it much...because when I do...I think of fucking Ed...and that pathetic ass interview after MTV...with his rigamortis looking brother...and Cherone...and that shit album...and it's on...it's off...it's on...it's off...

and Hagar...through it all...saying, "Dave will be by the phone...I won't..."

lying fuckers all...

fuck Van "Halen" "Hagar"...whatever you want to call it...

look at the window of 1974-1985...and leave the door shut on the rest...

Don't hold your breath...if you do...you'll die...

[ALinChainz]

Yeah, but if you're smokin', you gotta hold your breath some ...


:D

[POJO_Risin]

at this point, I'm not gonna hold my breathe anymore, if a reunion w/ Roth happens or doesn't happen...maybe a one time pay per view concert for ol times sake would be kool, but pojo is right, even if it does happen, it'll take alot of work, and lots of unecessary stress on Dave, to bring Halen back above the water...

the Hagar era has brought the band down to ridicule and parody and I'm not even sure I would want Dave back in that predicament, but i want Dave to do sumthin', anything, jus put out another kick ass cd, hit the road, get better management and promotion...it's not too late for Roth to comeback!!!

I fully agree with you Dave is gotta rise! period!fuck the vh sisters let them crawl..

Whether or not you hold your breath, sooner or later you will still die. :D

But I am not holding my breath. I do believe that things are, or could be different this time around. Yes, it would have been easier back in 1996 when the crowd was pumped for it, but easier is not always better. They would have been expected to live up to an image.... and that image was different for different people. Additionally, there is no room for growth or creativity when you are trying to live up to an image.

Yes, the general public will definitely have a "wait and see" attitude about the whole thing... and that is exactly what makes it so right. Classic Van Halen's success was due largely to the fact that they gave you what you were afraid to expect! Bigger, better and bolder than before. They stood out. In the beginning you went to see the headliner, but you remembered the warm up band because you got MORE than you bargained for.

If a real reunion were to occur, yes, a lot of people would consider it a joke... some people would try to remain uninterested, a few new people would come to see what it was all about... The radio play the classics still receive is proof that they could tour on classics alone... but the real magic will be in the new music. The question is whether or not they have it. In the beginning they needed to prove they had it to the world. This time around they need to prove it to themselves. But either way, at this point in time, the room for growth and creativity is there.

The question is whether or not they will take advantage of it. I for one will anxiously be awaiting the answer... without holding my breath.

Ims2 I hear what your are trying to say , but whatever ed is writting musically has no grind to it or fury, he is doin all that mellow stuff which I hate,
Have you heard that song called FLEX from DLR, anyway this is the stuff I'm lookin for and I believe that this will take Dave onto a new carreer and rise.

Ed and his sister are totally comercial and that's why it sucks!

keep in mind that the new material keep the band going or else they become a nostalgia memoribilia and Dave is not the type to be part of this,

ciao for now,

[franksters]

here is what I want to hear!

[lms2]

You need to keep in mind that David Lee Roth IS Van Halen. What Ed is writing now is minus Dave. Its like making sugar cookies, but forgetting the sugar.

No you won't. You'll just pass out kind of like Eddie in an Absolute Vodka factory.

i think dave should just concentrate on his solo stuff. he needs better management, better promotion people. hell he should hire any one of us roth heads to do it for him . any one of us would do a heck of a lot better than whoever is doing it now. roth should look at getting his money back cause they didnt supply the goods. one thing dave needs to do is balance out the set list. Classic vh will always sell but he needs to promote and play his solo classics a little more to introduce it to new fans and to remind us old ones of these tunes. it s no wonder a lot of the albums are out of print even the best of? he needs to play them more. he should also try and work out a deal to re release those out of print albums with bonus tracks you know revive interest in them.
