This article states that Rockstar VH was actually for real.

I would love to know if this actually was close to happening.

I wonder if VH was a name that was thrown around for a band they would like to have for the show. Who would be the “judges”? Alex and Eddie only since Mike wasn’t in the picture anymore?

I've mentioned this before, but my cousin worked sound engineering on Rockstar when INXS was on it and he said there was a lot of buzz and gossip among the crew that there was going to be another season and it was going to be Van Halen. This may have been nothing more than some producer's wet dream, and VH may have never even been seriously contacted about it, but it indeed was a discussion among the crew on set as my cousin told me this while it was all happening during filming of the INXS season.

I remember he was so stoked because he thought he might actually get to meet Ed and Al if it happened lol. Obviously we were both happy VH finally wised up and made it work with the REAL singer and frontman of the Mighty Van Halen, but it is certainly one of the amusing "what if" scenarios to think about.

$100 says DLR would of auditioned for the show.

Yeah, because Sammy has never mentioned getting another shot to front VH ...

Lmao, so bitter.

There is no fucking way Van Halen would do Rockstar: VH.

None.

You can either start adding something positive to the site or get the fuck out.

I'm sure you give this same hall monitor treatment to Dave purists and their sarcastic remarks, right?

[It's Mike]

Pretty sure no one asked for your opinion on this.

It's been never ending with him, and yes, I'm tired of reading it. Before I posted it I gave him the benefit of the doubt and read through his last few pages of posts on his page, it's constant juvenile comments about DLR, and it needs to end.

And yes, a lot of people have been warned lately, Dave purist's too, some of them banned.

Brett warned everyone about it several times, and not everyone has been listening. I am tired of closing threads over a few of the same people over and over. With Ed's passing, if you can't say something positive about Ed, Al, Mike, Wolf, Sam and DLR, then say nothing.

And there is a big difference between saying "I don't think [insert member name here] sounds too good here" and some of the shit being said around here, or reacting to interviews, etc.

Oh, and right back at you.

Stay out of it.

I didn't realize people had to "ask" for someone to give their opinion on a public forum.

[Darkness]

Stay out of it.

Don't worry, I don't intend to ever return to this forum, so I will quite literally be staying out of it. You have been the most sorry excuse for a webmaster I've ever seen, allowing constant trolling and subtle instigation from users like Jungle Drummer, not to mention fake "insiders" like Fudd being allowed to spread their nonsense for years on end despite everything they've said proven to be false time and time again. It's just a shame a great band like VH had to settle with this wasteland being the best forum available.

Man, this thread really got out of hand quick.

Back to the subject, I remember the buzz about Rockstar: VH. I was really hoping they'd do a CVH tour instead.
