Hey all, you know the g'n'r song called COMA, right?
On UYI 1, That song TOTALLY reminds me of the van halen situation , and more specifically, eddie's life view. You guys may disagree, but i can just imagine eddie thinking those thoughts that Axl sang.
Just thought id put in the 2 Cents

Man, dont even talk to me about Axl right now. The guy looks flabby as hell and he was totally winded about 20 seconds into his MTV gig he did a few weeks back. Plus, to have the nerve to call this new band of his Guns n' Roses when he is the only damn member left is pathetic. The only good thing to come outta that is Buckethead, who i have followed now for about 6 years now and who is just amazing on guitar. One of the few people out there pushing the envelope. The guy rips.

The last 4 years arent totally Eddie's fault dude.
Remember-
1999- Hip Replacement surgery
2000-2002 Fighting for his life battling cancer.
Also in that time period VH split from Warner Bros., a label they first signed to 25 years ago!
Ed and Val divorced after 20 years. And he has his son to worry about too. The VH3 fiasco. Poor Gary was doomed from the get go. And it's the only VH album ever to not go multi-platinum, onlu going Gold.
We as VH fans are so damn spoiled cuz regardless of turmoil VH has always been consistent when it comes to the music. 12 consecutive multi-patinum albums man. Unreal.
Now for the first time ever VH is silent and hasnt been putting anything out and people dont know how to react. Myself included..lol
