Back in '96 when Sammy split the Hitler camp (the first time), Guitar World had a page with numerous people who could fill the spot of new singer. I've since lost that issue, but some I remember. They had the person, then the new band name:

Let's begin:

Phil Anselmo - VANTERA
Carlos Santana - VANTANA
Meatloaf - VAN NEEDS NEW SHOCKS
Simon LeBon - DURVAN DURVAN
Dave Mustaine - MEGA VAN
Brian Wilson - THE BEACH VAN
Jack Blades - NIGHT VAN
Joey Tempest - EUROPEAN VAN
Paul Stanley - KISSIN' VAN
Ass Hole Rose - GUNS 'n' VANS

You get the idea - just a little 7:30am EST, witch tit cold, Ann Arbor, Mi humor.

Here you go:


Sebastian Bach - VAN SKIDMARK



Seriously, I always thought Bach would be a good fit with Van Halen. And he and Eddie deserve each other...two difficult-to-work-with assholes who never came close to what they were actually capable of. But...Eddie's too busy drinkin' and Bach is too busy smokin' doobies.
