Rock on, Grant! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hell yeah! Good call, Downy Fresh. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Grant's the man. Everyone here checks VHND every day, right? If not, you SHOULD!

I like how he mentioned Jessica Willis' article.

Yesterday I emailed the editor of the NY Press:

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr>
To: <mugger@nypress.com>
Subject: Jessica Willis' Music column

To the Editor:

I loved Jessica Willis' Music column about "Van Halen" (volume 14, issue 50). As a fellow female fan of this amazing band, I wanted to drop her a line telling her to hang in there as we wait for reunion news. Do you have Jessica's email address?

Thanks much,
Maya

LOL! If I had known they were gonna ask to publish the damn thing, I would have written something a lot cooler. Sheesh.

Cool Synth. The Wolfman also sent a note to them and got the same reply that they wanted to publish his letter. Don't know if Wolf wanted that public knowledge, so Wolf if I done bad, you can kill me. [img]smile.gif[/img]

**JWS_5150** · 12.12.01, 07:48 PM

Definitely cool. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

No biggie - I'm glad someone else thought of it -

Here's mine -

Hi Jessica -

My name is Jim Kerr - I go by the alias of Wolfman at the VHLinks Forums. Your article has been greatly appreciated and struck a note of empathy with our members. It was suggested that you would fit right in with us seeing what an obvious fan of the classic incarnation of the band you are. Anyway, I just wanted to invite you to come check out the site sometime if you have a chance - www.vhforums.com.

Thanks again for a great article - here's to hoping that dreams come true.

Jim

Yeah - same thing I was thinking. [img]redface.gif[/img]

**JWS_5150** · 12.12.01, 07:58 PM

It'd be pretty damn cool if she shows up

**DLR'sCock** · 12.12.01, 10:47 PM

everyone should write the NYPress, that would be kool to get a huge response from this article

**Raldo** · 12.13.01, 05:31 AM

Gotta give props to the Van Halen News Desk. A great source for VH information and the editorials are right on the money. Thanks Grant! Thumbs Up!

**Van Gully** · 12.13.01, 05:44 AM

VHND =

**jrk5150** · 12.13.01, 08:55 AM

My first stop on the net when I get in to work. Awesome site.

**sbrum** · 12.13.01, 12:02 PM

GREAT Site. I go to it every day. Good Job.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

**Pumpkinhead** · 12.13.01, 12:19 PM

Awsome Article [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

**VHND** · 12.13.01, 02:49 PM

Thanks everyone. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm still knocked out whenever I read messages from people who enjoy the site.

I don't want to come across as a back-slapper, but this is the coolest forum out there and always has been.

No offense to those who were domers, but this place is the original and still the best and I'm glad it's had a "rebirth" in popularity/traffic due to the closure of the PD.

I just wish I had more time to hang out here.
