"Quotes from Big Al"

**guitar5150** · 02.20.07, 03:52 PM

Here are some quotes from Alex many years ago ... I still think he feels the same about things. I really couldnt see these guys getting together for a tour. "Bad blood boils over"

"It's important to remember that the Dave of 1996 is not the same Dave as in 1984".

"To go out on tour with Dave would be an embarrassment to our fans".

"The Beatles will never get back together and David Lee Roth will never again sing with Van Halen.

Al seems like a smart guy, I wish he'd take of the rose colored glasses and kick his brother in the ass and realize that they've done nothing but drag Van halen through the mud for the last 10 years. 1 flop album, 3 so so new songs and a tour that was marked by your brother playing like garbage....nice way to ruin a legacy.

Good thinking, AL...why not just re-hire Ray Daniels while your at it?

I can see it now...I quote from ALEX "There is no rust on Dave"

Amen!

Remember, most bands that are still together today (such as Aerosmith and Rolling Stones) went through a rough spell before turning out some really good stuff. Is this VH's rough spell or is it the middle of the flaming end??

It was all these quotes that made me look forward to hearing the BS from the other half of VH if this tour is (or was) to happen.

Kari Wuhrer/co-host (wearing a bikini which, shall we say, excentuated certain glorious body parts)

Kari: Welcome back, Viva Van Halen Weekend in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. We're hangin' out with....

Alex: No, YOU'RE hangin' out.

Aerosmith had a few years, 81-85 I think..VH is going on 11 or 12 and Steven Tyler had the common sense to know he was fucked up and got help, Ed and Al think everything is fine and the fans jsut love em.

Aerosmith had trouble around 94 and had the common sense to get everyone into consuling, VH shoulda done the same thing in 04 instead of the old.."what...what..everything is fine, all that stuff that happened back in 96, hell, we ddon't even remember it"

c'mon guys..........
