If you would have asked me 25 years ago what would happen to the band Van Halen in the future, I would have told you that they would be history and the principals probably dead.

I would have been wrong.

Never would have imagined a family affair.

Eddie almost was... I guess he's fully recovered.

The VH brothers must really hate Diamond Dave - a reunion tour would be pretty well received.

The tongue cancer has made Eddie virtually absent from the television radio set ... they need DLR to promote and show a personality of the band. Now more than ever.

I had heard Eddie was on the straight and narrow early on but he got caught up in the bad stuff later. Based on the results he looked probably paler than most dead people and it probably cost him his marriage.

Really hated to see that. And a friend in music told of a bad accounting of seeing Eddie focused on obtaining that white powder.
