if ed apolgized, would mike do it?

[JMJ]

if ed made nice with mike at the hof or before and apologized, would mike accept and be part of the tour if asked?

after all the bullshit that has been slung, would he do it?

i really think that as of right now, it's a damn valid question!

the tour hasn't been announced yet because the contracts have yet to be signed. maybe dave is having second thoughts about doing it without mike cuz he knows wolf, while a good kid, lacks mike's intangibles not just on stage, but on tour....

the thread is about mike returning if ed asked him and apologises, now we're talking about ed's sincerity??

can we have a thread NOT about ed??

[smithjc]

Sorry to derail your thread.

[JMJ]

i know yer mad as hell at ed bro, believe me i understand.

we just don't need to have every thread turn into n anti ed one

that's all

I'm sure Mike would participate if Ed was sincere about amends as well as cutting him in appropriately for his rightful piece of the pie. Actions speak louder than words.

Unlikely, man. Once he's announced his son is in Van Halen, it'd be hard to see how Ed could retract that, as a father.

mike is gone

fuck me runnin

Ed never admits he's wrong so this won't be happening dude.

Yeah, Forgot about that whole tuba comment thing....

Funny, he'd prolly be good at it...I think he could squeeze music outta pretty much any instrument...

There can be no apologies in business, otherwise business would be called "love". VH is a big company...

You forget that Wolfie might quit after a few weeks or even after a few shows. He might not be able to handle being in front of thousands of screaming fans at his age. Who knows if any will boo him too. Then Ed might try to get Mike back.

[Mister Bullethead]

I think if Ed did extend the olive branch to Mike so to speak that Mike would be a part of this tour but I do not see Ed doing that. I wish all the best to Wolfie, but he will be very scrutunized on this tour, and he will be the scapegoat unfortunately if this tour does not go as well as planned. Awfully dangerous thing to do, to throw your son into the lion's den and expect to him to come out unscathed. Like its been said time and time again, Mike is also a fan of the band and he would do it because of that, but his stellar background vox and everyman presence will be sorely missed.

I think the olive branch is more likely than an outright apology.
