He blasts Mad Mike and Sammy for "ALWAYS" promoting
their Hot Sauce and Tequilla lines but...

Not to mention his Peavy and Ernie Ball Musicman model guitars in the past and 5150 amps.

Up until the last few years, I always thought Roth really was the problem in that band but EVH's behavior has proven beyond all shadow of a doubt that he's probably more to blame than any of them. That's not to say Roth or Hagar didn't play a part, but it certainly seems like they are innocent in comparison.

I'm gonna guess that EVH is raking in more money in royalties than either Sammy or Mike were, from VH records/songs. So why should he be all pissy because Sammy and Mike are making money doing their thing? Oh yeah, because he's EVH. The guy could play guitar back in the day, but he (ain't all that and a bag of chips... mmmm chips.) is making a fool out of himself lately.

The world revolves around Ed & Alex in their own minds. Bad behavior turns fans off and many see Sammy and Mike as victims . Glad you are trying to get your lives back brothers .

I'm convinced that EVH, over the years, has suffered from some variety of mental illness. Either that, or years of drinking combined with people constantly telling him he's a god, has resulted in a similar effect.

This nascar thing is really quite similar to when EVH had his people force Kenny Chesney to let him play with him (when Chesney came into LA)...EVH knows Chesney and Sammy are close, have jammed together numerous times, Kenny has been to Cabo and they did a VH set with Sammy, Mike and Clayton Mitchell (Kenny's guitarist). In fact, I remember either Sammy or Mikey saying something along the lines of "Clayton is so good, he's like EVH in the 80s". Clayton is a self-professed EVH fan...

I suspect when EVH saw what Sammy or Mikey said about Clayton, he forced his yesmen to make joining Chesney on stage for a cameo a top A1 priority.

It's fucking juvenille...it really is. There's this childish one-up thing going on with EVH. He really seems a like a paranoid psycho these days. Perhaps there was a seed of that in the 70s and early 80s, the way he got defensive about his gear and his tapping style...but it's gone way beyond the sandbox these days.

So first, EVH has to one-up sammy and play with Chesney...now he's gotta one up him with this Nascar thing.

I'd say the next thing for EVH to do is to start a brand some hard alcohol...but I think EVH has already had his yesmen do some market research on whether fine distilled sterno would sell...and they came back with a resounding "No!"

You're not the only one. I honestly don't think Roth and Sammy contributed at all to this...although throughout the years I was convinced Roth was the headcase and EVH was a victim.

The fact of the matter is that the VH brothers have fired everyone else from Van Halen at least once. That's gotta tell you something. If Mikey wasn't axed, I might have been convinced of Roth being the issue if he were the only person let go.

But the fact that Roth has been in and out of this band 3 times now, Sammy twice, Cherone gone once...and a few other singers that never made it past go to begin with (Mitch Malloy comes to mind).....the problem is 100% Eddie. Based on what I've seen of both Roth and Sammy, I'd be willing to bet that they're both quite easy to work with. Roth's schtick is an act anyway....I'm sure Roth and Sammy, during the tour, shared a few bottles of Cabo together and laughed about the whole thing....

First time I realized that young Edward was becoming the problem was when VH did what they did to Roth in '96.

Bush league. Yea, Eddie, how DARE DLR have the audacity to say "It's nice to be up here again as a band?" :shock:

Ahole.

Probably trying to show them that there was only one EVH in a dual with Clayton? Was Ed in fact afraid to take the stage following Neal on the proposed VH/SS shows which Ed nixed? After seeing him on that reunion tour I've thought that was the real reason, not his getting back at Neal over trying to start a new band with SH and MA.
