Well….if it means anything: I think the reason dave has been so quiet is because they ARE recording or at least setting a game plan. Remember how quiet dave was when the rumors of the reunion tour leaked? Next thing we know dave’s on stage with eddie al and wolf and its “press conference time!”. I could be way off….this is NOT wishful thinking here. I just really get that feeling.

Also! Has anyone else heard the rumor that the album cover for the new VH album is supposed to be an “older” version of the “jaded new years baby” on the cover of 1984? If thats true what do you guys think of that idea?

Me? Eh…

Drop D maybe, but he always plays at least half a step down
for that fat & warm brown sound……coolness.

Yeah, I agree. Eddie Van Halen is playing extra fast and accurate in this television show. Just how he played in the early days. Great to see. And inspired me to want to try and learn what he played. I never heard him play those notes before down at the open-5th fret area. I did my best learning it and posted a video lesson at youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioXERIPjAUY

I agree, the intro piece (open strings to 5th fret) could be part of a new song he’s written. My guess is Van Halen is almost finished with a new album and that’s why they are planning this 2010 tour… For the new album release.

America land of the free! ahahahahah
Yeah right! We have here a great demonstration of free speech.

“SHUT THE FUCK UP” is all you can come up with. Insults won’t prove that the millions of people questioning 9/11 are wrong.

It won’t work, because I’m not some kind of crackpot who believes in retarded theories, like GOD, and reincarnation, or angels and creationism. I talk about facts. At first I was sold to the official story. Then in 2003 I began investigating the events of that day, because I had doubts about flight 93. Since then, I’ve tried many times to see what Popular Mechanics, NIST, or the discovery channel had to say. Everytime, they avoided the unanswered questions.

To me, the STFU reaction is exactly the same as saying my questions are legitimate. It proves that you are totally incapable of questioning what your medias tell you. As soon as someone says anything that goes out of the mainstream narrative, your conditioned reaction is: a person who contradicts the official story = a lunatic conspiracy theorist.

Oh and this statement about Hollywood liberals is exactly the same as saying “racists white thrash from the south”.

All right, I leave you in your profound ignorance.

Good luck!

I wonder if he will play one of the hundreds of songs he has written? Probably not…my guess is “Ain’t talkin’ bout love”. It’s worked for the last 30 years, keep ridin’ that pony until it drops!

If you ask me, Ed smoked like never before!! He played a mean ass lick!! He used the drop to hell tail piece and the E string was LOW baby! But Yeah, it kicked major ass. And that’s with his thumb all wrapped up. I hate to say it (specially to the haters), he’s still got it and sounds sick!! I would go so far as to say that the little piece he played sounded like part of a new groove!!

Rock on Eddie!!!
