    This is all from the upcoming issue:

    From Alan Mintz: "Van Halen is currently weighing all the options and seeing what the future brings, (but) it's still premature to say where the band will go" He says they will seriously consider major label offers, but that such a move isn't a given "These are interesting times"

    "Van Halen's contract was not up with the label, but the two parties negotiated a mutual release. While one source says Van Halen left because WB wanted the act to record a new album with former lead singer DLR (with whom EVH had written three songs in 2000, according to Roth), EVH had vetoed that prospect.

    "However, another source says the decision to split "was not a function of the where the band was musically. There were business reasons"

    and Warner keeps the masters...

    Well that makes sense. It's not the news I wanted to hear, but it fits perfectly into what's going on.

    Dave is doing solo stuff because Eddie just will not work with him.

    Eddie splits with WB because they want Dave.

    It's no secret that Eddie and Dave don't like each other. It's just too bad we have to find things out this way.

    Maybe Eddie is going to try to get in on Limp Biscuit's audition/contest! Come to think of it, I did see a guy look a lot like him in line outside of GuitarCenter last weekend!!!

    TRANSLATION: We don't stand a snowball's chance in HELL of getting a contract until there is a confirmed singer, and the major labels have told us they are not interested without David Lee Roth

    "Van Halen's contract was not up with the label, but the two parties negotiated a mutual release.

    "However, another source says the decision to split "was not a function of the where the band was musically. There were business reasons"


    TRANSLATION: Don Engel couldn't find a loophole to get that piece of shit Danniels cut loose once and for all. I did, that's why I'm now the band's lawyer. WB agreed to the split because they were also on the hook to pay Danniels royalties as long as Van Halen had a contract with WB

    and Warner keeps the masters...

    TRANSLATION: Now that the band is no longer under contract, WB can raid the vaults without Danniels raiding the profits. The box set is coming, Glenn
    Eat Us And Smile

    Welcome back, Van HALEN!!!!

    ...It's the BAND and Dave is really the cat that can front VH. He sang his ASS off and was really cool. No cheese here guys, this is filet Mignon! - Steve Lukather's comment after witnessing a Van HALEN 2007 rehearsal

    "These are interesting times." No kidding. It's been 'interesting' since November of 1999. At least some of what's been happening is now out in the open and it certainly helps to clarify SOME things.

    I agree that when a band says things like "we're considering several label offers" that really means "nobody will return our phone calls"

    but what label WOULD want to sign a singerless directionless band?

    nice translation ford,

    i too am more confident than ever about the box-set.

    one concern i do have is that it will be a glorified RE- package of stuff we already have, that is too typical of box-sets.

    on the other hand the recent stevie ray vaughn box-set was exceptional in that it was alomost entirely unreleased live and studio recordings. i HOPE that warner doesn't blow it.

    wonder if the set will cover all eras like the deep purple set or split eras like the genesis sets.
    UP FRONT FANATIC....!!!!
