    Default Happy Birthday to Michael Anthony!

    A big shout out to the most underappreciated and too little celebrated member of Van Halen.

    Hey Mike. Met you in lobby of Vegas Hardrock on CF tour stop there. Thanks for taking the time the time to chat and the nice intro to your charming wife. Many more birthdays and keep playing and singing.
    10-6-2020 RIP King of sixstrings.

    I remember seeing VH in Worscester 2004 on Mikey's birthday. All of us at soundcheck sang Happy Birthday to him. It was pretty cool.

    Once again, Happy Birthday, Mikey!!

    Most of these BD threads are for us, the fans. Since no one knows for sure if the guys check in here.

    But in this case.....

    Happy Birthday Mikey!

    There are a lot of us here that appreciate...really appreciate, all that you brought to the band.

    With nary a, yeah but.....

    I guess I'll blow Mike too as NA is quite right. Happy Birthday. Tell Sam to lose WCTBL every now and then and add Sucker. It's ok. It won't kill him or us.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL ANTHONY!

    The original VH bassman with the world’s most famous mullet and the voice of an angel. Whether he’s in The Circle, Chickenfoot or Van Halen, Mikey brings good vibes and sharpens up everyone’s sound. 66 and still gettin’ his kicks! #MadAnthonyRules

    Have a great day, Michael!

    p.s. Maybe ask your reps to call the VH camp, just to check in or failing that, maybe a quick convo with Joe Satriani about future plans?

    I think you can stick a fork in Chickenfoot.

    Outside of some type of one off in Cabo, that band is almost certainly done.
    If I don't respond to you it means I have you on ignore, which means you are a douchenozzle.

    David Lee Roth did the impossible. He made Van Halen better. Deal with it!

    That's because Sam is cheap. Satriani costs money. He's a legend in his own right. You say Hagar and Satriani in a sentence....

    I met Mike at the Vegas Hardrock as well just milling about the lobby on the VH3 tour and he was cool as hell and could not have been nicer. Also ran into Ed (of all places) walking out of the casino restroom after the Friday night concert when he was gambling with Val and others.

    That Vegas trip I ran into more celebs than I ever have and talked no photos just talk. Morrissey was in the casino later that night very nice guy but he was being mobbed. Said a quick hello to Sammy at Cabo after the CF gig same night then he vanished bouncers told me he split out the back. Met some guy at a sushi bar said he worked for Sammy don't know if he was real but he dropped lots of names.

    You guys are lucky. I've never even met a local celebrity. I lived in Vegas and never met anyone.
