The official Van Halen Reading List: "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People"

[Smokin' 5150]

An excerpt from the VH "How to Fuck The Fans" Manual:

IF YOU ARE VH, WHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF:

A fan who is confirmed to have met Mike Anthony reports that Mike told him about the long-awaited DLR reunion.

A) Come clean and admit to the conversation - but exlain why it cannot be confirmed at this time
B) Confirm the long-awaited reunion creating a buzz around Dave's "last" solo show that would carry the band into the future.
C) Deny the conversation and imply that the loyal VH fan is a liar. Say nothing of any real substance confirming or denying the reunion.

ANSWER: (C). Never treat your fans with respect. Call them liars. Who cares if by buying your albums, t-shirts, concert tickets, etc., the fans have made you a rich man who is financially able to sit on your ass eating IN-N-OUT Burgers until your cholesterol tops 300 for the last 2 years.

After all, remember the VH motto: "Fuck the fans"

[img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] Well said. VH doesn't give a shit for the fans. The last 2 years have proved that beyond a reasonable doubt.

If I ever see EVH on TV again (which right now is very doubtful) and he says "its for the fans". I will jump thru the TV and punch him right in the nose.

At this point I would love to punch him in the nose anyway! [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img]

$tark$ and the Lying Dutchmen are currently experiencing the karmic result of their long standing policy of lies, denial, and cenorship. This time even the sheep are pissed.

In the back of my mind i have this feeling that this reunion album will come out one day. But the thing i fear most is that after having waited so long for this that this album will just plain suck.
