No Van Halen fans in here? I wanna talk some friggin halen
My favorite CD is 1984, I'm definitely into the David Lee Roth Era.. The other vocalists have their moments, but ya know, the original is always the best.
Anyone hear about this? I saw it the other day on blabbermouth.net
Quote:
Original VAN HALEN frontman David Lee Roth is featured on three tracks on "Strummin' with the Devil: The Southern Side of Van Halen", a collection of VAN HALEN songs done in bluegrass style that will be released on June 6. Roth joins the JOHN JORGENSON BLUEGRASS BAND for twangy renditions of "Jump" and "Jamie's Cryin'", as well as a special radio edit of the latter.
The album also features DAVID GRISMAN AND SONS, BLUE HIGHWAY, MOUNTAIN HEART, IRON HORSE, and others offering new interpretations of such VAN HALEN favorites as "Runnin' With The Devil", "Hot For Teacher", "Panama", "Eruption", "Ice Cream Man", "Dance The Night Away", and "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love".
You can now listen to the CD "Strummin' with the Devil: The Southern Side of Van Halen" in streaming media on CMT.com's "Hear Music Now" web site.
In the liner notes, the Indiana-born Roth explains that "my roots were always kind of country — not the same country as my first band. Their flag had windmills. Mine had BBQ pit and a shot glass."

Anyway, it's not happenning but it would've been interesting to have the Rockstar season 2 be Rockstar: Van Halen just for the heck of it
