ALTER BRIDGE Guitarist Mark Tremonti Hears New VAN HALEN Album Front To Back, Says "It Was Incredible" - Classic Rock Bottom2024-03-28T09:16:46Zhttp://classic-rock-bottom.ning.com/forum/topics/alter-bridge-guitarist-mark?commentId=6060463%3AComment%3A40402&x=1&feed=yes&xn_auth=noYeah, I'm with ya on that who…tag:classic-rock-bottom.ning.com,2011-08-18:6060463:Comment:404022011-08-18T05:57:55.890ZDavehttp://classic-rock-bottom.ning.com/profile/Dave
Yeah, I'm with ya on that whole holding your breath thing. Sammy was pretty cool...acted like he has known you all his life. One thing is for sure...Eddie Van Halen is not the most normal dude on the planet....very talented...but the man has some issues. We'll see if there is ever any new music...but I think I'll listen to it before I buy any of it.

Very cool Dave, that you met Sammy Hagar! He seems like a fun dude to hang out with...party without getting obnoxious! I still dont think we should hold our breath until this album full of new music actually appears!

I might give it a try...but I have to say, without Anthony, it's still not VanHalen. His backing vocals were and are killer. I don't know...here's hoping...but to be honest, I'm one of the few that have always prefered the Sammy era...maybe because I have met both vocalists, and Sammy was by far the better human being.

<p> </p>
<p>With the back catalog they have to have by now, picking 10-12 songs for a release should yield great tunes! Thats my line of thinking and my hope anyway.</p>

<p>I bought III when it came out and I'll give this one another chance...</p>

<p>Just take my word for it! It sounds like its some independent band that had a few thousand</p>
<p>dollars, or just a couple of hours to record it. The guitar sounds crummy, the vocals sound crummy...just a bad job altogether.</p>

I didn't even notice the production because of the crappiness of the songs. Now, thanks to you, I have to whip it out and take a listen. This will be the fourth time I've listened to this album since the day it came out. Thanks a lot!

I would think, with as much time as they had/have, the vocals in the studio should be fine. But, live? I think that will be a struggle for sure.

Well, I have no doubt that Alex will be great on the drums. Wolfgang will probably be okay on bass, but I will really, really miss Anthony's backing vocals. Also, can Dave still sing and how will the greatest guitar player ever perform (most of my question marks come from bits I've read that came out of Hagar's mouth). As far as Dave goes, I thought he progressively sounded worse as his solo albums went along, and I didn't like his vocals at all on the two new songs from the greatest hits…

<p>That's right. I've said it before: As far as I'm concern, it's not really Van Halen without Anthony.</p>
<p>And as I read it, Tremonti said it was incredible, that he's one of the few people, who have heard the music. Not, that the MUSIC was incredible.</p>
<p>If it's great, I'll buy it of course, but why should they make a great record in 2011?? Why now and not before???? I'm sure it was an intention that III should be a great record. And what about Roth. Does he still drive an ambulance as…</p>

And what about Roth. Does he still drive an ambulance as his "daytime job"? I don't think, there's any heart in it anymore. There's no hunger, and therefore the album IF there's a record, will probably suck.
