Humor: Van Halen’s Curse on Ted Templeman (Video)

by VHND — updated December 7, 2014 25 Comments

UPDATE Dec. ’14:  We originally featured this video a few years ago when it came out. But now there is a perfect quality version online, so we’re happy to feature the upgrade. It’s hilarious, and well worth re-watching! The Van Halen segment starts exactly 40 seconds into the video. Enjoy!

Some humor for the weekend – Yacht Rock‘s Episode #9 — the story of a Van Halen hit.

It’s 1977, and David Lee Roth & Eddie Van Halen put a curse on Doobie Brothers producer, Ted Templeman, to force him to produce their hard rock debut album. In a subplot, Kenny Loggins loses his car keys and has everyone in the studio helping him look. Comedian Drew Carey makes a cameo appearance.
