Well, we've got plenty of people shooting down or disagreeing with supposed "leaked" information here. Nothing wrong with that -
I'd just like for somebody just ONCE to say that something is true. I can't help but think some of the things we have heard will end up being true in the end. It reminds me of how athletes and other people in the spotlight are constantly denying things only to be proven wrong later. I'm not accusing anybody here of doing that directly(so please don't think I'm flaming anyone's posts), but I wonder if some of the actual sources that feed info to "insiders" are blowing smoke up our collective ass to keep us at bay. Somebody PLEASE tell us something that is true! http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

So the fact that Davis Lee Roth has been recording with Van Halen isn't true. Is that what you're saying?

So far all I've heard is that Sammy's not playing with VH, and Dave is, or isn't playing with VH, depending on what source it comes from. Can anyone confirm this?

Hey Sherman...I believe you and everything you say. You seem honest, and really the best VH source around.

I just don't understand what you mean when you say stuff like bonn's post is false ??

If you can say for a fact that the album title IS NOT Saburossa, or that those song titles posted by AAAA aree false, then you must know what the songs are called, or else you could not claim those 13 to be untrue..

What i'm wondering is if it would be possible to just flat out answer a couple of questions.

Is DLR forsure back ?
Are they getting along okay ?
Has a producer been named ?

If you could answer these three questions I would greatly appreciate it. And thanks for everything you've done so far.

later

Listen bizzatch, I use to be like you. Always treating sherman like shit. But, then I realized what a dick I was, sherman left the links. Now, he is back, so don't give him any shit. You don't believe him, FINE. You do not have to be a jerk.Over and out.

Point out to me where i'm being a jerk in my post ?

The only thing I am wondering is how people can just claim that somthing is false if they don't know the truth ? You know what i'm saying ?

Sherman seems very cool, and i'm proabably one of the happiest with him on this board. All I'm saying is that you CAN"T DENY A RUMOUR, UNLESS YOU KNOW THE TRUTH.

If someone says "No, the album is NOT CALLED SABU, then that means they KNOW THE TITLE OF THE NEW ALBUM"

Because if they don't know the title, then would simply say "I'm not sure, the album might be called SABU"

You follow my logic MADDEN ??? I am in no way trying to insult Sherman, or anyone else who is willing to help us out. I just wish someone could say "The album is NOT CALLED SABU...You know why ? Cuz it's called PISS"

You see what i'm saying ?

Anyway, Sherman, if I offended you or acted like a "jerk", then i'm sorry. That's not what I was aiming for, but i've never personally talked to you, I have only been lately reading your posts. I'm glad to have you here, and I truly hope that one morning i come on here and see a post in the main discussion that says "VAN HALEN"S ALBUM OUT IN 1 MONTH !!" topic started by Sherman.

So calm down madden, I am a huge van halen fan and do not want to piss anyone off...

I want to make sure everyone understood that I was not trying to indict anyone that has posted here, especially not sherman or Bonn. The exact opposite is true - I appreciate and respect anyone that provides information and/or is able to shoot down false rumors. I just bemoan the fact that nobody has been able to come up with any thing that has been proven CORRECT yet. Just frustration rearing it's ugly head again, I guess. If I have any distrust for ANYONE, it's the people that feed us VHLinkers total lies. THAT"S cold shit. http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif

Nah that post was OK, Sherms got no prob answering questions, its just the abuse that seems to piss him off (strange that)

Rock on bros

A little zen... Headed your way...

I'm calm, you aren't. Anyways, thanks for apologizing to Sherman. I don't want to start any shit either. Just watch what you say bizzatch. I'd hate to see Sherman get pissed off again and leave this forum. Just watch what you say.Peace out.

bizzatch,
Don't worry man, there was nothing offensive about your post. You can be as diplomatic as hell on here(or any where else for that matter) and some folks are still going to go off on you for no reason. Most of these type of people make fools of themselves with their own words, so it's cool. As far as the "insiders" go, I figure those that are really "in the know" will never be specific. I sure as hell would not be if I thought it could screw up my relationship with the band.

Yeh it's important to remember on the net, even the best intentioned posts can be read 'wrong' by people... You dont have the 'real world' benift of reading expressions etc.. its easy to get things wrong

---------------------------------------------

Madden,
Lighten up fella,bizzatch didn't say anything wrong. If you are the type of person who believes every little thing people tell you without question, you are a FOOL!
I think it is fair to say that there are many people here that would like Sherman to put up are shut up,bizzatch Makes a very good point! If Sherman claims that the titles and album are not legit than lets hear what he knows. The guy (Sherman) says in a post above that he would love to confirm something if its true, WELL, In effect what he is saying is that "I won't be the one who betrays VanHalen and spill the beans BUT if someone else does I will confirm it. If he knew anything He would have told you long ago. He has said point blank that he does not know who is producing the album yet he claims to know that the song titles and album cover are 100% false, Boy, It sure is strange that he would not know who the producer is but yet he knows what the album looks like (if he claims it's not a cleaning lady then he must have seen it) I think it is clear that Sherman knows next to nothing. He loves the attention, The only thing he knows is that some of you will keep worshipping him and that's enough for him to keep coming back.

PS.
Anyone receive their "free" CD from Sherman?
Start asking the tough questions and Sherman will leave again. Oh and if by any chance he is an "insider"(yea right) then my challenge still stands. PUT UP OR SHUT UP SHERMAN!

Bizzatch;
If you look at some of his old posts Sherman
does say point blank that David Lee Roth is back but now he likes to play games and pretend he never said it.

Sounds like someone doesn't want to post under their "usual" name. Ughhhhhh...... See my last post.......

Yeh.. seems to know a hell of a lot for a first time poster huh?

Just whatti or globby or some nut trying to stir shit up again, just ignore 'em

If this thread becomes a shitfight, we'll close it... I dont want that nut whatti getting what he wants...

------------------
A little zen... Headed your way...

Bigtallguy, what the hell are you talking about! What the hell Sherman ever do to you dude? Just quit your fucking whining and lay off Sherman. Just because YOU don't believe him doesn't give you the right to treat him like shit so the rest of us can't hear him. Don't fucking wreck this for the rest of us. O.k. Ya get my drift. Peace out. ps..I don't mind your critizism of me, just don't rip Sherman a new asshole. Last time I ripped Sherm a new one and he left the forum. Now that he is back PLEASE don't piss him off again so he leaves. Sherman does know the real deal on Van Halen. You just have to listen and quit your goddamn fucking bitching! GET MY DRIFT BRO.!

Sorry Goo, I couldn't help it. You're right, close this fucking thread before the Bigtalljerk responds.Peace out Goo.

No not Whatti and I don't know who Globby is.
Im just Bigtallguy. The biggest baddest VanHalen fan around so don't go pissing me off unless you know how to deal with a 6 foot 7 inch 290 pound (16%body fat) Harley ridding son of a bitch.

I have been lurking for a while and just got sick of little chumps like Madden picking on people. Oh and I am amazed at why you would continue to believe this guy Sherman.
You see I am a friend to the underdog and it really pisses me off when people like madden start running off at the mouth and it also pisses me off when people like Sherman wastes everybody's time with his cry for attention. His whole game is "I know something and Im not going to tell you"
Total BS. That's not cool in my book. Leading people on and never coming through with any real information.
You wanna be my friend? I'm the nicest guy you'll ever meet. You want to be an idiot like Madden. I'll romp all over your little ass.

Bigtalljerk, you are probaly a 5'6", 140 lb. pussy that just lurks around this forum looking for trouble. You don't even have half the intelligence of a guy like Sherman. HELL, I'm 10 times smarter than you are. You just try me pal, and I'll rip you a new fucking asshole. Leave Sherman and I the FUCK alone!

Relax guys, everyone can have their opinion without threats. Besides, I don't want anyone hitting me by accident.http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

, you are probaly a 5'6", 140 lb.

My Cock is bigger then that.You want me to lay off? Then straighten up boy ! or else.

Bigtalljerk, either grow up of shut up. I'm sick of your dumbass. You think Sherman is full of shit? You should listen to yourself!

This is terrible! I totally disagree with BigtallGuys comments about sherman. but the fucking guy is making me laugh my ass off! I better get the hell outta here!

Make you a deal Madden, Don't go giving other people a hard time and I wont come down on you and yes I do think Sherman is full of shit.

When in the FUCK do I give other people a hard time?

You jumped all over Bizzatch for stating his opinion because you are afraid that Sherman will leave again. I could care less about Sherman.Live and let live and we will all get along.
Now, I don't want to waste anymore time on this subject. I'm getting cranky.

No not Whatti and I don't know who Globby is.

-Not exactly sure where thats an advantage on the net.

Oh and I am amazed at why you would continue to believe this guy Sherman.

-A few of us have seen some proof that Sherman has some pretty handy freinds.

He's not in a position to give an up to the second, 'every i dotted, every t crossed', spot on, conclusive update on the process. He can give a general overview towards where its heading, and deny some rumors. So far, if nothing else, he's had a pretty good record in regard to rumor squashing.. Even if its just commonsense deductions, sometimes we need that here as much as we need real news! Choice is yours man, if ya don't buy it, dont pay any attention to it.. Plenty of other 'insiders' have come and gone, and plenty more will turn up.. It's part of the deal on a site like this.

-Maddens an OK guy, his manner can be a bit abrasive, but he's ok. Most of us get a laugh outta him and mangage not to get our noses outta joint, you just gotta take it the right way. Granted thats not gonna be as easy with a new poster, but most people here are big enough to sort their shit out between themselves (eventually!), give people some kinda credit as to having a brain in their head, they dont need a guardian angel!


You wanna be my friend? I'm the nicest guy you'll ever meet. You want to be an idiot like Madden. I'll romp all over your little ass.

-Sure thing, lets see the good side of ya, not some rampaging vigilante!!

Cranky? What are you a little baby. Here, take your bottle and go run home you little tit.Over and out.

Goo,
As far as Sherman having friends, Dropping names means little to me,
Do you care to explain how Sherman knows what all 12 or 13 tracks are NOT titled but yet he does not know who is producing the album?
Does this make any sense to you?

He has stated that he does not know who is producing. How than, Would he know what the album looks like or what the tiles are or are not?
Do you get my drift? Doesn't add up.

I understand your point Btg, but all sherman EVER said he would do is to squash the rumours that he could (without compromising his relationship with the band). He has never, to my knowledege, said that he would volunteer any information.

Who said anything bout dropping names?

Yeh, as I said he's not an insider as in a daily visitor to the studio type.... you figure it out..

Anyways Im not here to speak on Shermans behalf. He's quite capable of defending himself. My own feelings on it are he certainly seems to know something.. We'll all know whos telling porkys and who's not someday soon... If we can get to that point without tearing each others jugulars out, thats a big bonus!

Man, this is a tough room sometimes!! http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/tongue.gif

Man...this is crazy !

I went away for a few hours and this thread blew up !

Why do you take shit so seriously MADDEN ? First of all, I never said ANYTHING to insult you, and I definately NEVER wanted to insult Sherman.

I'm glad that you wanted to teach me a lesson to not bother Sherman just cuz you did, but I would never do that. I simply asked a few totally innocent questions, and if Sherman didn't want to explain me the answers that is just fine, he doesn't have to.

The only thing i stated (very clearly I thought) was that if a person knows something is false, then that means they know why it's false. If you say that their first single WILL NOT BE CALLED INDEPENDENT'S DAY, then you know for a fact what it will be called. Because if a song is not named at all, or not completed, then it could, very well be called Independent's day in the future...

That's all i'm saying...it's simple logic, and I just wanted Sherman to answer me because i'm not too familiar with him. If he doesn't want to, I will not be angry or insulting, I will just continue to read his posts with interest.

But why are you taking such offense to everything madden ?? the only thing i said to you was "CALM DOWN"..you say you are calm but i'm not ??? IM VERY CALM. You're the one who flipped on my ass for no reason. I doubt Sherman needs you defending him from 18 year old canadian kids who ask him a question or two.

Sorry Madden...I have to say, that last post might still make you mad at me. that's not what i'm aiming for. I've bee lurking around here a couple of months before I joined, and i've always enjoyed your posts...

It just really shocked me when you were offended by what i wrote beceause you are a recognizable name. I mean..I don't know everyone too well..but I know i've enjoyed posts by Brett, Glenn, Sherman, Wolfie, bonn, Top Timmy and yourself. I've only been here a short time but I disticntly remember you making me laugh or think or whatever. So the last thing I wanted to do was make enemies here. I love VH and I think every single memeber on this board is great. And thanks for those who defended my earlier posts.

Sorry Madden, I quite enjoy reading your opinions.

OLO, MikeL - PLEASE close this one out. I did not intend for this topic to take this direction. I should have known somebody would come around and try to stir up some shit. http://216.10.25.192/vhlforum/smilies/mad.gif
