    It has always been the belief of my V.H. friends and I that not only Big Mouth Ray Daniels is BAD news, but Big Brother Al is the one in the Band who is calling the shots....Ever see the interviews or Radio broadcasts with the Band....Big Al is sounding off and who is following right behind echoing his opinion....Ed! That's Right....Ed makes the Fantastic music ...But Big Al manipulates his brother....poor Mikey just quietly knows his role...Thats what the problem is !!!

    Well, now we've had Anti-Eddie, Anti-Sammy, nti-Dave. Anti-Gary, Anti-Val, Anti-Mikey, and Anti-Alex posts.

    Someone want to come on and say Wolfgang is the problem so we can have a clean sweep of the VH camp?

    Edward and Alex have both mentioned coming to America for the first time and not knowing the language and therefore forming an even closer bond with each other. There's seems to be a level of trust between the two of them that, I would guess, even other band members have never felt with the brothers. That being said, I don't believe that Alex manipulates Eddie at all, and I certainly don't believe that it's this factor that is holding up the current situation.

    Then Al manipulated Eddie in a pretty good direction up until about 1996.....when the changed factor was....err, you mentioned that already.

    I resent the fact that anyone, professional or amature, promoter or consumer, thinks Alex is incapable of making good music, or hasn't been a MAJOR contributing factor to all Van Halen music published or un-published.

    For someone to make that claim, not only should they be posting in the OPINIONS FORUM, but they should be prepaired to back up such claims with equal or better skills than Alex!

    You guys are right with one aspect...Ed and Al do share a bond like no other Band has...but isn't Ray, Al's brother-in-law...therefore that will influence Al's decision making which in turn will influence Ed because of this Greater Bond....Dave does not stand a chance against these guys..and by the way, I think that the Band, musically speaking, is incredible....so please do not mis-read what I'm trying to say!!

    Peace!

    ex-brother-in-law as well as ex-manager I believe......RD/SRO isn't listed on the remasters or at the official website.

    David Lee Roth has never been a puppet for Edward and Alex Van Halen, that inference bugs me.

    I'm with Stuff No More. All these anti-(insert band member here) threads are becoming irritating. Big Al is awesome!

    Certainly we don't know any of these guys, but Al especially gives off an air of mystery and it's hard to get a read on his personality. Nothing wrong with that, it just makes him seem all the more cool.
