I’m not even going to post that Roth made recently appealing to
the band to bring back Michael Anthony
[/quote]
Dude, Link!
And with that, without reading said link, THAT is NOT going to
sit well with Eddie at all. "How dare you try to replace my
son!"

[glow=red,2,300]David Lee Roth Wants Michael Anthony Back in Van
Halen
HTML http://ultimateclassicrock.com/van-halen-david-lee-roth-michael-anthony-reunion/[/glow]
[quote]There’s once again drama in the world of Van Halen, with
singer David Lee Roth complaining about a recent lack of
activity and communication within the band, and openly calling
for a reunion with original bassist Michael Anthony.
In a wide-ranging (and frankly, downright inspiring) interview
with Rolling Stone that primarily documents his recent
adventures living in Japan, Roth declares that he’d love to make
more music with Van Halen, but laments that it’s been over a
year since their last tour and says that he’s “not sure what’s
in (guitarist) Ed (Van Halen)’s mind at this point.”
(In fairness, it should be remembered that Eddie Van Halen
underwent emergency surgery for diverticulitis at an unspecified
point last year, a procedure that carries an estimated four to
six month recovery period.)
Roth also goes on to explain that he and Eddie “haven’t written
a new song in 20 years,” and suggests that the group’s 2012
album ‘A Different Kind of Truth‘ was comprised of even more
reworked material than most originally suspected: “Almost all of
the music that you hear on our most recent album was written and
demoed before the first album.”
In the most eyebrow-raising part of the interview, “Diamond
Dave” also calls it “a disappointment” that the group hasn’t
reunited with Anthony, who wasn’t invited back — and in fact,
was replaced by Eddie’s son Wolfgang — when the group
reconfigured with Roth for a tour in 2007.
“What we have at our fingertips is arguably one of the greatest
high tenor voices ever — that was in Michael Anthony,” Roth
explains. “In our tiny little corner of the universe, that voice
is as identifiable as the high voice in Earth, Wind & Fire, as
identifiable as the high voice in the Beach Boys… so I would
always look forward to that reunion.”
Anthony is currently a member of Chickenfoot alongside Van
Halen’s second singer, Sammy Hagar. Wolfgang’s mother, actress
Valerie Bertinelli, told Detroit’s WRIF back in March that the
lure of playing with his son is what brought Eddie Van Halen out
of his long break from touring and recording.
Why is Roth rocking a boat that has proven to be so easily
capsized in the past? A sense that time is not exactly in his
favor anymore seems to be his primary motive: “For me, 60 is the
new 80. You oughta see my X-rays. So get going, start heading
north. And whether we accomplish anything or not becomes beside
the point. The goal is to get with somebody and get with a group
or team or a squad and get going on something that everybody’s
contributing to.”[/quote]

Thanks for the link. Yeah, I can see Dave's tenure in the band
ending sooner rather than later, especially after going on
record wanting Mikey back in he band. Like I said a few post
back, the guy that's gonna have to step up and get this done is
Alex. I think Wolfie would actually step aside for this. I've
never seen him as the problem, it's always been Eddie.

I agree... Roth has nothing to lose out of this.... except time.

Someone needs to post a great version of A Different Kind of
Truth tour concert. Most of the ones I've found on YouTube for
whatever reason. Whether it's shaky cam footage or horrible
audio (high trebles or lows bass), I haven't found one worth
sitting through yet and I'd like to be able to watch and see how
they performed on that tour more than anything else.

Obviously this isn't VH live, but with Michael joining John 5
onstage, is there any more reason enough to get him back in Van
Halen now? The dude's voice is just so f*cking good. Why Eddie
wouldn't want to take him back and really bring back that
vintage sound is beyond me. This clip alone should wake Eddie
the f*ck up. Hopefully.

Well, just punch me in the head. I’m not sure why I ordered Van
Halen live at Tokyo Dome after I heard the one horrible cut that
was released a few weeks back. I might have because the library
is really in a dry spell of late. Not much in my queue at all.
So why not.
Well, recently I saw the band perform on the Jimmy Kimmel show
and it was phenomenally appalling again. Like the sound bite,
the visual performance was similar. Sounds like the musicians
are awesome, but Diamond Dave completely shreds up any kind of
singing talent in the band.
I see a few die hards fans that are trying in vain to defend
what they are hearing. IMO, they come off as idiots. This is
really a head scratcher on why this product is being put out.

I saw the performance yesterday and I thought Dave was horrible.
Eddie, Alex and Wolfie were great. VH hasn't always been the
best Live band out there when Dave is front and center. They
were good in the 80s for sure. But since the Reunion Tour, I
have found Dave to very lazy on stage. He makes no effort to
even sing in key or even in the right spot. He's too preoccupied
with prancing on stage to even give a f*ck. I haven't even been
able to get through any bootleg concerts of theirs in the last
few years. With that said, I really wish and hope that the
original four (talkin' bout Michael Anthony) will reconvene and
do another album together and go out tour. Mike covers up a lot
of the vocal issues that Dave clearly has and has always had.
