Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
Dont blame Sammy. He has worked with hundreds of musicians, and they all only have good words to say about him. EVH has only worked with a few musicians, and they all say he is a dick...............Comment

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
Disappointing. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] But not all that surprising, either.
My sense from all I've seen and heard over the past year or two is that Eddie is in a downward spiral. Every now and then he seems to pull himself up a little bit, but the overall trend continues down. I hope he can help himself, because that's the only person that can really do it. Good luck EVH.Comment

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
I've herd all this for the past 3 weeks, It's probally true, but The show on friday was the best show on the tou so far, that's coming from people who have seen tons of shows on this tour. Like I said Eddie seemed happy, him and Sammy were playing off each other the whole show. They even did the 5150 walk during best of both worldsI've fallen, Fallen through.

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
DRS, keep in mind... It is the "show"
I will say again tho, they've been awesome all 3 times I've seen them in recent months.
Definitely a shame tho, no doubt.

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
Maaaaan. Y'Know, growing up, I remember Eddie as a class act. He was cool about giving the fans what they really wanted. I recall seeing VH in the early 80's in Dayton, OH (Hara Arena I think). We had really good seats. He was doing his nightly solo. Being a guitar player, When he came over to us, I calmly gave him the "thumbs up", while everyone around me was jumping up & down & going wild. He looked right at me, then ponted at me, and gave me the "thumbs up" back. Then he threw me a pick (which some punk in front of me got).
The point is, he used to make an effort to "give back" to the fans. Now he cant even stay sober long enough to do a show. Everything he does is for a buck...more like a buck with several zeros after it. It's sad to think that the guy who changed guitar playing more than anyone else ever has, is slowly falling apart, and doesnt even seem to care. It's a shame.>>--HuntinDoug-->Comment

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
No one wants to see Ed self-destruct and take the band down with him yet again. It's just that once it's happened before, you always fear it'll happen again. Hey, if Sammy leaves maybe Ed will get pissed off enough to get Roth back out of spite. A DLR VH tour after this one would really ice the cake! I'd actually pay to see that one, unlike Van Hagar!Ron is the MAN!!!!Comment

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
I'm with you Lerx!!! Diamond David Lee Roth with Van Halen would be the greatest stadium tour of all time!!! I saw them together on 3-tours, the best. [img]/images/graemlins/band.gif[/img]

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
Never gonna happen
Roth is a nutjob, even worse then EddieI've fallen, Fallen through. If I'm Not With you, All I wanna Do Is Feel blueComment

Re: Van Halen Destruction Again?
And yet Roth's band sounds like Van Halen, while Van Hagar sounds like... slacks. Also, Roth has toured a lot more consistently and reliably than VH has in the past 7 years. He worked, while Ed drank, smoked, got cancer, then smoked again. Who's the nutjob there?
Ed's killing himself, plain and simple. Dave is at least enjoying his life.Ron is the MAN!!!!Comment
