I have heard from a friend, not confirmed yet. That Eddie was approached by Sly Stallone to do a song for the upcoming Rocky Balboa Soundtrack, maybe it will involve Dave.
I have a couple calls out to see if this was true or not.

Read that earlier this morning at the army.

Certainly would be an excellent vehicle to get Van Halen back in the public conscience.

If all 4 original members don't play on the song I'll program my ipod to always skip it and let malls accross America know not to play it when I'm shopping.

I think Ed's answer to Sly was probably: "not interested, however I've got a part for you in one of MY movies..."

Hey, if Mr.T, Hulk Hogan and Carl Weathers are not invited for this gig, then I am NOT going! It's gotta be a Classic Rocky reunion!

Hey! Maybe they'll do a Van Halenized version of Eye of the Tiger.

As far as I know this movie is done and in the can...I know they can still add music to it, but I would be very shocked if this rumor was true. Would love it though.

Projected release date is December 22nd. I'm sure they're still in post production. Anything's possible.

No "Rocky better be wearin a cup" comments yet?

I'm disappointed.

I'm not sure that soundtracking Rocky 6, even with a minor one track contribution, can be considered top of the line PR.

But this may be the first Rocky that all of the new era music "fans" see of Rocky. Kind of like VH III with some people....ya know: "The first I saw is the best".

Remember, Eddie is all about.....
