Happy Holidays!
December 20, 2002

"Christmas time is just about here and in looking back, I have to say 2002 has been a pretty rocking fucking year! It was great to get back out on the road with Sammy Hagar & The Waboritas, a blast doing some gigs on the Sam & Dave tour and even more fun re-forming Los Tres Gusanos for a few nights down in Cabo San Lucas. Most of all I'd like to give a big thank you to everyone for coming out to all the shows and joining in on all the bashing good times. It's been waaaaaaayyy too long!!! Here's to making 2003 twice as kick ass!

Stay safe out there while you're celebrating the holidays and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Van Halen fans kick everybody's ass!"

It's not too late; see if you can get a holiday greeting out of Eddie and Alex!

And Happy Holidays to you too Michael for you and your family. It was great to see Mike out on the road this year (even though he skipped Hartford because he was in Hawaii). Hope the next project goes well and maybe just maybe we will see the return of Van Halen.

Van Halen fans are a dying breed these days. How can we kick anbody's ass when the band isn't doing any ass kicking themselves? VAN HALEN WHERE ARE U?????

It continues to amaze me the way Mike uses his website and the Official VH website remains silent.

MIKE: "Hey Ed & Al, how about a Christmas greeting from the band for the website ?"

ED: "No!"

AL: "I am Scrooge"

At least Mikey loves the fans!!!!!!!!!!!

**Fast Eddie** · 12.22.02, 10:09 AM

I hope I get to meet Mike one of these days. He's the only member of VH I'd be comfortable aproaching. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

I wonder if he really believes his own shit. I mean, he has to know that all VH fans are extremely pissed off with the lack of communication from the so-called band. Whether you have bad taste and like Van Hagar or whether you are a true Van Halen fan doesn't matter. He must be embarrassed by the fucking idiots he works with. It just goes to show what the power of the dollar will do to a person. Obviously the VH cronies have Mikey by the nutsack. Anyone with any integrity would say that this mistreatment of the fans is complete shit.

Saying that Ed and the gang are mistreating the fans is nonsense. Sure, I'd like to hear what's going on (is eddie still very sick, recording, trying out new singers, etc.??) But in no way do I feel that these guys owe me a thing. IMHO, the sooner we get some news the better, but it's up to them to decide when the time's right. In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy what these guys have spent 25 yrs giving to their fans.
