Have you read Dreams of My Father? I'm going to, but the library is predictably out of copies, and I'm just curious what its about. His race baiting seems all the more bogus to me, the more I find out about his life. He went to Punahou Prep for piss sake, scoring with the waheenies, then Ivy league, churning the file at Sidley & Austin. Frankly, I think its his psycho wife and that goddamn pastor that have got him all bolloxed up and stuff.

Ha, Austin's bat country, your talking about congress bridge down on town lake
scope it, last fall I'm pruning trees around my house with one of those chainsaw-on-a stick deals and I notice a furry, deer foot lookin thing on laying by some tree limbs, so I poked at it to see what it was and it just exploded into these four little bats and they start hopping around, wings outstretched, screeching at me an shit, it kinda freaked me out, I'm thinking are they going to fly, attack me, rabies WTF, so I decided to take the offensive and I sawed the shit out of those bats, sawed them to holy-bat pieces batman, it was a bat massacre hehe

You raise some interesting points there. However, to obtain the Presidential Physical Fitness Award in the late 1970s and early 1980s, one had to be in the 85th percentile in the following events: pull ups, sit ups (V ups), shuttle run, mile run, and something else. My anecdotal experience was that a significantly disproportionate number of black youth obtained the reward, compared to whitey. Some of that may be attributable to relatively earlier onset of puberty in black youth. Some of it may have to do with the downside of white privilege. Shades of George Walker Bush III at Andover. There are other reasons as well.
My mom sewed my Pres patch to the arm of my dark navy barracuda jacket. I didn't want it there, but I didn't have the heart to tell her, since she actually did something.

Seems like tennis rackets are best deployed in a one man-one bat confrontation. I socked it to one in the rec room in Iowa while many of my cousins were scurrying about in blind panic. It was an "Ace", right in the sweet spot, and it sent his ass across the room and he hit the wall. Killt it dead - I think my intention was to stun and release, but man are they fragile, and there was no time to think in a room full of panicking teenage Ioweegians. Afterwards I felt bad, though. Is that white guilt? Man guilt?
Pdog, you ever see the name Walter Daniels playing any of the clubs around Austin, check his ass out. Greatest, craziest harmonica player I have ever seen - punk blues delta country heavily distorted wildness.

It seems pretty clear to me that Ed was used to someone who could command the stage being up front. Roth was king of that game. It took the pressure of Ed to be out of the limelight, something that clearly stresses him.
Dave quit.
They got Sam, but he's more the supporting player. When he does the gimp run across stage on clips, he looks like a retard. They all look like idiots on the "Van Hagar shuffle."
Sam would be a great back-up singer in a Motown group, but he's no talent to let run free - every impulse he has is stolen and well worn out.
So of course Ed looked nervous, because he knows they are looking like a bunch of fools up there (Would you like to sing about cake products). That's how I would be feeling standing up there with Sam - maybe the guy has big pipes -- but his stage presence is white-man-can't-jump 100%. His lyrics back it up.
I saw Van Halen in Chicago last year, and one thing was clear: the weight was well off Ed to be the focus of the show - he let Dave handle it - maybe that made him rub a little - but it still played out that way.
Roth is the only guy from Van Halen's generation that can stand up next to Ed and really really front their show - not play sideman - front the show and deliver the Mighty Van Halen.
That's why they brought him back.
Its going to take Ed a little while longer to figure it out, but letting Dave manage the shit is what makes him happy.
He can show up and play, write tunes, and go home to relax. Dave leaving in 1984 put too much weight on Ed to become something he isn't (rock star, guiding force, Beatle) and he has to let that go.
All he has to do is what he wants, and let Dave package it.
Van Halen is the result.

i did two pull ups in the 8th grade for the aforementioned presidential physical fitness test. that was after about two weeks of busting my ass out on the swingset so i wouldn't look like sean bradley in front of the middle school gym class. mrs bullard, who, i believe, was fired for making "advances" toward a student later in her career, congratulated me on doubling my output on all previous pull up attempts since kindergarten. however, i didn't even come close to winning the award.
i did, however, consistently win the presidential "academic" fitness award, which, as my mother told me, was a far greater honor.
