From Launch Radio Networks:
Eddie Van Halen called in to Howard Stern's program on the Sirius satellite radio service on Friday (September 8th), and he dropped a couple of major bombshells. After saying he was free of the cancer that led to tongue surgery a few years ago, the guitarist said that he and a partner had developed a treatment that cured his cancer, though he wouldn't reveal what it contains. As for how he got cancer in the first place, Van Halen denied it was from smoking, which he has never stopped, and he claimed the disease might have come from the metal guitar pick he used.
On a different topic, Van Halen made the slightly less amazing announcement that a reunion with original lead singer David Lee Roth isn't out of the question, though he didn't give any kind of timetable. Van Halen also talked about bassist Michael Anthony, and he seemed to go back and forth on whether they might work together again. Finally, Van Halen said his next project would be an album with him, his brother Alex, and his son Wolfgang, who he said had "dangerous" talent.
Coming out Wednesday (September 13th) on DVD is an adult movie called Sacred Sin for which Van Halen wrote and recorded music. He claimed that instead of calling it porn, people should think of it as a legitimate film about "good and evil" that also has sex in it. Director Michael Ninn said it was shot at Van Halen's house in Los Angeles.

scrapmetal - 9/19/2006 9:51:04 AM Looks like the missing ingredient underlying his fall from grace is none other than the trailer park drug of crystal meth-how sad.Fergie of Black Eyed Peas just revealed she had the same sickness for awhile.
Great post by BLobber,btw-his finest in a while-the scary thing is that it could all be true some day.

bosox1 - 9/16/2006 8:42:35 PM The whole van halen saga post roth has to be the greatest fall from greatness in the history of hard rock history...you could maybe get 1 albums worth of good songs out of all the van hagar garbage...i said maybe.......i`m still pissed off at my mom for not letting me see them in their prime.
BenLaden - 9/15/2006 10:27:24 AM See what happens when guitar legends dont die in their prime,they end up going insane!I am still the biggest VanHalen fan around but this shit is just fucking stoooopid! Eddie needs to pass the guitar talents to his son and hope he never fucking picks up a drink! Ever! I have seen Russ Parrish(former Atomic Punks guitarist) put Eddie to shame.I'm sure if hendrix was still around he would have turned into an idiot too,but he died and he be the coolest guitar player ever.Fucking Eddie maybe you should have ate some of those "brown m&m's" ther's a reason why there in the bag,it's called balance!Michael must have been the only one to eat them cuz he's the coolest member of that band.Oh yeah Eddie,while yer out finding a cure for cancer,would you just put together a vintage dvd of some old school footage for us fans who waited forever for fucking nothing!??????

Leather_Lung - 9/14/2006 7:52:24 PM 5 years??? HA! i give him the next 5 minutes... the least he could do is give up the ghost after killing one of the greatest party bands ever to hit the planet!
wolfsinbane - 9/14/2006 6:30:54 PM Not going to happen, I believe Edward Van Halen and Cockroaches are all to be left of this world. This just in, Eddie Van Halen finds cure for death.
Blobber - 9/14/2006 5:50:33 PM Let's start the Edward Van Halen Deathwatch Pool. My money says he won't live another 5 years.

wolfsinbane - 9/14/2006 4:36:39 PM Blobber, I never realized that you are such the clairvoyant. Hence the religion of "Blobberism" is created. Jim and Tammy Faye Baker shoud be getting a hold of you soon. They shall be the first "blobbets" Go now in false, but extravagant deaths........
