I will not congratulate Brett on shit until he updates my post count.

**Brett** · 04.01.06, 12:13 AM

I was just looking for an old thread and I found this tonight. With my daughter’s 20th birthday coming up on Saturday, it’s hard to believe this place has been around so long that I actually was gone for a couple weeks when she was born lol.

I find it hard to believe I actually didn’t show up on here for two weeks at any point. But maybe I didn’t.

Happy Birthday little Brettett.

We call that period the "Great Peace at the Links".

Your dedication to this place has created a lot of positive vibes for many people, even when Van Halen itself went negative. The longevity speaks for itself.

So awesome with how long this place has been around!

You're old dude.

Can't talk though. My Daughter was like 2 or something when I started posting I think (I lurked for a bit first because I'm so shy

). She's like 28 now. We're practically almost dead. Still rockin the Halen though, so we got that goin for us.

**Brett** · 01.15.25, 05:29 PM

Yes, we are all very fucking old.

So I'm catching up on my emails and board stuff, so if you've emailed me or sent a PM, just be patient, I have two weeks of reading to get through.

From diapers to college. How time flys at the VHLinks!

Man that’s crazy

it’s a lifetime ago.

I remember when Ed was doing that porn soundtrack and guys were speculating on whatever he’d written on the drumhead. That doesn’t feel nearly 20 years ago.

Some guys are still around, some guys fell by the way side. I never became the awesome guitar player I wanted to be. Who did?
