He’s half Indonesian. They’re spiry. And he was on cocaine.

Wolf is only a quarter Indo, he binges not on cocaine but Domino’s and he got all the Dom Deluise genes from his mom.
Yeah, Indonesian genes, still in his 20's with a high metabolism, cocaine and cigarettes and on top of that running around like a maniac on a stage for 2 hours almost every night.....
Out of all that, Wolf only has the 25% Indonesian genes....

That looks like steroids.
""""""""""""That looks like steroids."""""""""""

No.

That is genetics... end of story.

Wolfgang got most of his Mom's DNA when it comes to the physical side of things. Obvi.

He's not exactly David Lee Roth on the mic but his band is very tight and you can tell they are all friends and it shows as they seem to have fun on stage.

In terms of the bodyshaming, I would love to see what some of you guys look like, as a matter of fact CEO how about make it mandatory that if you shit on someone's body you must show a pic of what you look like too. I would guess some of you guys shitting on the guy for being fat make Fi Fi Larue look like Tom Platz on a full cycle of Dbol and HGH GTFOH

you like what you like...as time goes on many don't give new things much of a chance as old age and nostalgia sets in...the first album was ok, nothing really groundbreaking, kinda generic...if one went in expecting van halen, they would rightfully be disappointed...d.m.

The Distance music video was 100% clips of Ed and Van Halen.

He puts Ed in the gatefold.

The first song of his first album is called Mr Ed.

The first time anyone heard his music was done in a sneaky backdoor way when he was on Stern talking about how Ed died.

Even the name of the fucking band is the same as what Van Halen’s first band name was.
the song was written for his dad about living without him. it would make sense to have the subject of the song in the fucking video.
the song was released nov 16. the same day he was on stern. he was on stern to promote the song not just talk about how his dad died in october.
you need to be a hardcore van halen fan to know the reference to mammoth. having that on the marque isn't drawing in van halen fans that don't know who wolfie is, it's just another tribute to his dad.
mr ed:
Wolfgang Van Halen says of this track; Contrary to the title, this lyrically has nothing to do with dad. "It was the demo title because I harmonically tap the intro, and it just kind of stuck around. It’s a tongue-in-cheek, funny title for the song, so even after the lyrics were done I decided to keep it."

I forgot about RAGE haha, is that place still around?? Pretty crazy driving past that place, always look jam packed. Saw some strange stuff driving down Santa Monica Blvd at 3 am back in the day (come to think of it it was pretty weird even at 3 pm :))

edit: I answered my own question, closed Sept 2020. No chance of getting ass raped at 2am now unfortunately

I got no side in this debate, except for this.....

He's NOT a FUCKING KID!!!!

Dude is 32 years old. 32 years of age is a MAN. An ADULT!

How many of you on here who are similarly aged would refer to yourself (or similar-aged friends) as a KID! To quote Scott Ian, 'NOT'!

On another note, regardless of what Stevil thinks of WVH, I find it comedic gold... and just take it for that. Don't get your spandex in a bunch boys and girls!

Re: Was I An A$$hole For Not Giving Wolfgang A Chance?

Post by MetalSludgeCEO »

The answer is clearly ... NO, I was not!

Bravo Dave!

I will be the first one to say Roth is nuts, and he's been annoying and then-some for a few decades, at least for me sadly!

But... make no mistake, in any and every interview I have ever done, regardless whether it was 1988, 2001 or 2023, I have ALWAYS championed David Lee Roth.

In addition to Roth, I have said the same about Vince Neil and Stephen Pearcy, as those guys, are my BIG 3.

They gave me the kick in my shorts to do what I set out to do, to chase that rock singer road... and I have followed through to the best of my abilities for 40 years to the very date (come March 8th of this year / 1984-2024).

Also... let me state, I have said almost from the start, from Day 1... that this Wolfgang guy is a silver-spoon fed spoiled brat, who was handed everything from birth, right up until last night... and all day today the same.

Nothing was earned... not a F#@king thing... other than his ability to play his instruments... kudos and respect for that... but this is not about skill or ability, but rather the person and their output!

Have you ever read or followed his Twitter?

He's an absolute prick to countless people... the mere mention or request of him playing a Van Halen song has lead him to eviscerate people with anger and hate. #fact
Then he goes on a tirade about how he carved his own path.

Really?

A path that was and still is paved with gold and the keys to every door in the entire industry... #morefacts

To all of those who have stood up and boasted about his "talent" and the rest, bitch please!

This guy wouldn't get a second look if that last name was anything other than what is listed on his license.

And this is not a dig at his lack of ability to control himself in the kitchen or drive-thru... nope... I have plenty of Fat, or shall we say over-weight friends... and some skinny ones too.

Fat too harsh for you?

It's 2024... get a helmet and embrace it... it's a fact, not an insult.

Bald can be deemed the same, but I am not offended... so move on.

Anyway, this is about the person, the human, the entitled miserable self-loathing (Fat) guy who has lashed out at anyone who doesn't fit into his narrative.

Yeah, Wolfgang took a swipe at Metal Sludge too... way back, when I was doing nothing more than reporting on all of the "hype" surrounding his debut and subsequent (VH) rumors, etc...

And No... there was not a single dig, or a dis anywhere in those original articles... just facts.

With that... what Roth is talking about here (go read it, or find the video and listen) happened nearly a decade ago,... one can only imagine what happens behind closed doors today, or that is not seen, not heard, or not known by all the adoring Van Halen fanboys who are still grasping for a connection to the chosen one's only offspring.

I love Van Halen, and have all the respect in the world for their history, the players, the music and this includes the Van Hagar years... (along with all of the years of hard work, those guys put in to achieve those dreams) but Eddie's kid is a huge (pun intended) Cu#t, and I won't ever change my stance.

I also know, that I do not stand alone in my view... as I have had countless industry types, including players with name value express similar disdain for him... but of course, none of them would dare go public with any comment that would hinder their future, or their position going forward... all good... to each his own.

I said it before, and stand by it... and what Roth has unloaded here, is just more evidence of exactly that!

Bravo Dave... this is spot the F#@k on!

He's NOT a FUCKING KID!!!!

Dude is 32 years old. 32 years of age is a MAN. An ADULT!

How many of you on here who are similarly aged would refer to yourself (or similar-aged friends) as a KID! To quote Scott Ian, 'NOT'!

On another note, regardless of what Stevil thinks of WVH, I find it comedic gold... and just take it for that. Don't get your spandex in a bunch boys and girls!

Stevil, you should partner up with Steel Panther. Smashin' Asian hookers all over the place!

That's what you got out of the rant???
He might be 32, but his brain is about the same as a 12 year old.
Calling a grown adult a F*ckin Kid....is an insult...not a mistake.

-You cannot deny the guys talent. He's well rounded(zing!) on every instrument. He's put in the work.
-Mammoth was the original name of VH for those not aware(most of us are). Unfortunate it's descriptive.
Unfortunate? I was sure it was intentional and slightly funny.
If he didn't want to refer to his weight, he could have called the band Daddy Longlegs.

VH fanbois think Dave is on-point and a comedic genius when he rips on Sammy, he goes off on Mukbang and all of a sudden he's a mentally-ill old fruitcake. I love social media :lol:
