    Eddie Van too-much-in-Halen.From electric rockers to electric walkers…. but somehow all these old guitar heroes are still standing.

    Yah yeah…. it was David Lee Roth….but since he wouldn’t be standing under a VH logo these days, I’m thinkin’ this must be Eddie.It’s a miracle it’s any of them.

    We’ll see if the postponed concerts resume. Both EVH & DLR say they get along just fine these days.

    Susan,

    DLR is back with VH. They just released an album last month or so. Still wouldn’t want to see him do any high leg kicks.

    Wasn’t Eddie the one that had the hip problems?

    Susan, Eddie’s also a well-documented raging alcoholic. I don’t think inhalin’ was the problem.

    Time for them to hit the rockers.

    It all depends on the person. Ringo Starr is 72 and still the coolest dude on Earth. His shows are just as good as ever. (I know this comment is not funny—but it is true.)

    David Lee Roth also served as an EMS technician, in NYC. Was a dream of his.

    I’m an avid Paul McCartney fan and he just turned 70. He’s still touring and putting out albums.

    Jump is still the stupidest, most inane, absolutely worthless song ever produced. I turned the dial any time it came on and still would if I listened to radio. I have CD’s and play what I like, not what is preprogrammed. Never understood why Valerie Bertinelli married Eddie either and so glad she got out of that relationship and into a good sitcom.
