The Michael Berry Show

If you're my age you already know what's coming

Focus on the drums not the guitar. It's hard, it's hard, it's Fannhannhale, focus on the drum.

Drummer Alex Van Halen, along with his younger brother Eddie Van Halen, formed Van Halen.

He was born on this day in the Netherlands.

His dad is this great Dutch kind of half-con man, part hustler,

part savant genius promoter, marketer, tireless, beer, swiller, larger than life, physically and figuratively.

People think of, that this is my brief

on this song from Jim Mud, our creative director.

So if people think of this song as

Alex Van Halen at his greatest when it comes to drumming but if you want a deep cut and you want

to see some truly outstanding drumming go to Van Halen's out of love again.

I can't hold that off as my own opinion because I like

Van Halen. I don't love Van Hund. Jim Mud lives for Van Halen. He might try to take

the day off if somebody dies in the band, you know what I mean? It's that kind of thing.

In my opinion, when David Lee Roth left Van Halen, that was the death of Van Halen. I don't care what the name of it is.

The band was not the guitarist. The band was David Lee Roth's personality.

The band was David Lee Ross personality,

is his flamboyance the chicks loved him

Let me ask you this I'm just a jiggolo if you take David Lee Roth out of that song

And you go have Eddie Van Halen is one of the greatest If you take David Lee Roth out of that song,

and you go, Eddie Van Halen is one of the greatest
