Who Can Read Sam?
This isn't the first time he's mentioned it; I dunno if he's simply talking, or it's more than that:
"...Hagar discussed the possibility of unheard Van Halen material getting a release, though the band’s lead singer remained coy about pursuing the subject due to Van Halen’s iconic legacy.
After admitting that there weren’t many completed Van Halen songs that didn’t see the light of day, Hagar did, however, hint there may be some old EVH jams that could be fleshed out with background vocals or new lyrics.
“But I’m leery about doing that,” he asserted. “ Because the legacy of Van Halen is so great, and – prior to me joining the band – the legacy is pure greatness: Eddie’s guitar work, the band’s playing, the songs.
“Anything left over wasn’t good enough to be on those records. I don’t care what anyone says; putting out [unreleased music] wouldn’t do anything, other than make someone a little money. But I know Eddie had a ton of [unreleased] jamming stuff he made on cassette tapes, because that’s how we wrote songs.
“So, maybe,” Hagar teased. “Who knows what they could put together?”

I hear ya, bro! At our age, why deny ourselves pleasure? I went to a mom-and-pop Mexican place earlier and picked up some classic carne asada fries. I got this huge platter of meat, fries, cheese,...
McDonalds, and be honest.
