        Hate to say it Elvis, but I agree with Donnie on that one. I think Dave will fuck himself out of the band before they have a chance to get Mike back. He is already back to projecting his vaudevillian act on them. That ain't gonna sit well with the brothers. I saw Ed giving Dave nasty looks after the Ellen performance.

            Yep. Mikey will be back - there's no doubt in my mind. But he won't be backing up Dave...

                  I don't blame Ed one bit for shooting Dave the Stink Eye. The guy was hopping around like he just got invited to Freddie Mercury's last big birthday bash.

                        Is he just complacent now? Maybe he needs to be on a series of 90 day contracts?
                        He had just spent a coupla years auditioning for Van Halen in his own Van Halen tribute band so he was just back in and still on probation.

                        He does need to be tranq'd and tied to a chair and forced to watch and listen to this and compare and contrast and be honest with himself about who is the better sounding vocalist and who is the cooler frontman up there, 07-08 DLR or the current off book, vocally all over the place, fidgety kid lookin Dave?

                          He'd say this one. Hands down.

                            The funny thing is, what made him such a great frontman/vocalist/action figure/ hero How to many is what's making him seem silly now. His "gift" to not give a fuck. He gets up and nothin gets him down. Brave not to touch up vocals, but come on. It really seems like he's choosing to do some of these things he's doing vocally, or if he's messed up in the throat, he ain't gettin the help he needs.

                              Well, you can rest easy. Because, apparently, Dave can STILL sing the songs and can STILL pull it off. He's just choosing not to, for some retarded reason. Sabotage or whatever. But just as soon as Mikey comes back, OR as soon as he gets fired from VH, Dave will start singing just like he did just a few years ago. See, he's destroying his opportunity to gain fans OR retain fans just so he can take them all with him when he leaves VH. Or bring them with him in droves when he finally gets his (and mine) wish and has Mikey up there. Dave is sand bagging. So the ability is still there. But he just chooses to totally destroy his legacy and his legitimacy as a singer just so he can either get fired or Ed will bring back Mikey.

                                Indeed. Eddie can suck and unless he's really obviously terrible to EVERYBODY meaning non-fans, people who haven't listened to these records 25,000 times,people with NO musical experience, etc. Van Halen doesn't look bad. When Dave's bad, it's all people can talk about.

                                Hey, maybe that's the thing. Maybe Dave is figuring, "Hey, at least they still talk about me."
