VH needs to get their ass in the studio and lay down some tracks.

I know this was posted a while ago so my response is a little late, but “Down the Drain” best rock song of the last ten years?

I like Chickenfoot too, but c’mon, it ain’t all that. It’s a good fun time album, and it wasn’t really meant to be any more than that, they weren’t going for Zeppelin IV, so on that level it’s a huge success.

The Sammy vs Dave thing feels older than both Sam & Dave combined. Although I prefer Dave’s era of VH, I also like a few of the Van Hagar songs. Hell, I gave VH a chance and it wasn’t half as bad as popular thinking dictates.

I’m glad that there is still an incarnation of Van Halen to enjoy. Mikey and Sam’s fans have Chickenfoot and Van Halen seem to be on the verge of recording, so why not just enjoy both and stop whining about 25 year old disputes.

At that time I preferred Van Hagar compared Dave.
Van Halen was in a spirit of friendship, Dave in a frenzy of surprise, and Vai as a guitarist I notliked much.
But in life things change.
When I think to Led Zeppelin, Queen,Aerosmith and U2, I must admit that each member of Van Halen was not intelligent enough to understand that Van halen was the biggest in the world.
The fault is to be divided among all except Gary.
And this thing we can not do anything.
Now Chikenfoot and Van Halen with Dave and Wolfie are also not very successful imitation of that band that no one can ever give back more.
