Aint talkin bout love.
Am I the only person out there who would sell a testicle to see a Diamond Dave era Van Halen reunion tour? Honestly now, I can't be, can I?
Look. Take separate limos. Sleep in separate hotels. Put up a goddam shower curtain on stage if you must, but really, TOUR. You will make MILLIONS. Kiss. Stones. Eagles. Shit, The Who is selling out and half of the damn band is DEAD!
I need a Van Halen reunion. Did anybody rock like that? Anybody?
I'm gonna go buy an Auto Trader and roll my t-shirt. I wanna listen to some "Mean Streets" or "Beautiful Girls" and drink a lite beer.

Jimbo!
Laughed out loud at your comments about the sweat pants and junk checking- I saw your comments by way of dooce- obviously.
Anyway, always enjoy popping by your site- and yes, I am thinking about growing my mullet back and taking out the t-tops on my camaro- Van Halen Rocks! I'm playing air guitar and doing some random screaming as soon as I get done typing here! Go ahead and jump!~

Actually, I believe Van Halen IS touring this summer...with Sammy Hagar.

Tina's right, VH is touring with Sammy. Jimbo... you're killing me over here - you're as insane as I am, you're hot, AND you're into VH? I'll hafta live vicariously through Tassy - you're lucky I'm engaged!

I was noticing that, in Mozilla at least, the right frame page the scrolls is shifted over a bit to the left and it cuts off the first half of words on the left hand edge. I might be me, I don't know.

I would love to see that as well, if Dave weren't totally washed up. He can't sing anymore and his antics are pathetic. Too bad, becasue VH in their prime were about as good a rock band as there ever was.

i ask, which song stands the test of time: why can't this be love? or aint talkin bout love?

Re: Mozilla...no, it's not just you, Meaty. I get that when I use Mozilla at home, too. Very strange.

On the Mozilla thing, me too. It makes reading the page more interesting...I can think of all kinds of words that end in "ee." ;-)

Well, considering the fact that you don't want to have children, what's a testicle to ya?
Posted by: melly | April 23, 2004 12:06 PM
a. forget mozilla, use firebird.
b. i'm a rocker through and through! van HALEN not van HAGGAR
c. and yup, i told you about that tour when you were here last time jimbo, but dave won't be coming along...sorry bud, his head would prolly explode if he had to do that.
d. i want to be hot for my teacher again too what can you teach me?!

Have you seen Dave on the Sopranos? He looks about 110. It would scar me to see him in spandex now. Makes me feel old(er).

Van Halen will be here in DC on June 25. That might be a reason for you to *finally* come for a visit! Course, it is with Sammy, but seriously folks, if Eddie, Alex and the bass player guy (I can never remember his name! Michael????) are going to be there, it can't be all that bad, right???

Geesch...why all the Sammy bashing? If it weren't for Sammy, there would be no tour at all. Cut the guy some slack. Not only does his tequila kick major ass, but he keeps the VH fans of the world rockin. C'mon, credit where credit's due! $1,400 for a pair of tickets (on Ebay) for a Sac-Town concert last night has gotta speak volumes. God bless Agave Kings and Capitalism!
