No Van Halen reunion; Michael Anthony still sitting on a lot of hot sauce

Posted March 11th, 2007 by eric

Jesus, Eddie looks like a toothless bag lady. So, the real reason why the Van Halen reunion was derailed is because Eddie needed to check himself into rehab, telling TMZ.com that “I have always and will always feel a responsibility to give you my best.” Uh-huh. So how does he explain being wasted throughout the 2004 reunion tour with Van Hagar? Either way, this is good news all around. The reunion effort with David Lee Roth was half-assed and completely patronizing from the start, since founding bassist Michael Anthony was booted for Eddie’s son Wolfgang. Who wants to see that? And this also means no Van Halen performance at the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame. David Lee Roth said he would not attend unless he could perform because he doesn’t “make speeches for a living.” You tell ’em Dave.
