    Steven Rosen said the book is already a New York Times best seller. Since he's done very little promo, I guess credit goes to those very annoying, ungrateful and demanding Van Halen fans!

    Ah, nice!
    Nature's intent is neither food, nor drink, nor clothing, nor comfort, nor anything else in which God is left out.

    Whether you like it or not, whether you know it or not, secretly nature seeks, hunts, tries to ferret out the track on which God may be found. . .

    I never heard of Record Bar.

    I grew up buying records at Camelot Music which in the late 80's was a heavy metal haven. They re-vamped their look in the early 90's and became much more corporate. There were a couple of mom & pop record stores as well. Sam Goody I remember but didn't buy much stuff there. Oddly enough, if there was an album you were seeking that was difficult to find, you could most likely find it at an electronics store called Nobody Beats the Wiz (think Good Guys or Circuit City but also with the most comprehensive collection of CD's you've ever seen).

    There were also a few department stores that had pretty decent record sections.

    In Michigan we had Record Time and Harmony House. some of the harmony houses were huge (Oakland Mall), it's hard to believe that malls are just gone now. they were HUGE here, I'd say 80% are gone now. there's a real high end shopping mall in Troy Michigan but I haven't been there for years.

    I agree it's crazy that malls have all but become extinct. It's crazy to say this but the generation after those of us X'ers were more interested in staying home and playing video games than going out and hanging out in public spaces, so that kind of killed the malls off. When we were in our teens it was mostly kids hanging out at malls anyway, and to a far lesser degree adults.

    Get ready for all the new lazy journalist clickbait articles that will spawn from Alex's book. They won't have to go digging through old Guitar magazines from the 80s anymore to find stories we've already heard a million times. They'll have a fresh batch of new anecdotes to recycle every few months for another 10 years. LoL

I met my wife and life is good. About five years ago, she reached out to me on Facebook to apologize for the terrible things she did and how immature and awful it was. She said I didn’t deserve it and all that stuff. She didn’t even really know why she did it, but you know whatever we were kids. She said she was so happy I found someone to spend the rest of my life with and that I had a family. Apparently she had never had kids and had been married three times. So there you go. I dodged a bullet there.

    Either way, I accepted her apology and moved on. She’s not my friend or anything, but there was no reason for me to continue being bitter about something that happened a million years ago. And trust me when it happened and I found out it was fucking humiliating because at the time we shared a lot of common friends.
    This is why I love ya. Fudd too. Honesty. I love when motherfuckers get personal. We get to know you. Fudd lays it out.

    Default AVH Book?

    So I got an email tonight from the organizers of that event in Culver City and I guess you can give them a question to ask Al. Obviously, I’m sure he doesn’t answer all the questions that are sent in, but if anyone has a good one they think I should send over to them, post it. I know we’re gonna get a bunch of silly ones lol, but if anyone has a real question, put it up here and I’ll pick one of them.

    Brett, that is very cool! I can't think of any questions I would ask Alex at the moment but I'm sure there are plenty of members here that have their own. Hopefully when the time comes, they will get answered!

    I mean, think about it. I’m not going to do it until probably the end of tomorrow. So I’ll give you guys all day tomorrow to come up with some good ones.
