Alex Van Halen 1981
A never before heard interview with Alex Van Halen

In the interview Van Halen talks about:

Van Halen days before being signed
Working with Ted Templeman
The best heavy metal band he ever saw play live
The future of Van Halen
And more…

Show Note: In the interview, Marc asks if it’s true that Van Halen has in their rider that there are to be no brown M&Ms backstage. It wasn’t until years later that David Lee Roth revealed the real reason behind their no brown M&Ms rule.

“We mean what we do, we mean what we say, and we’re on the level, and we do it 10 months a year, and the other two months we spend in the studio, and rehearsing and writing, and making the next album so we can do it all over again, it’s one big vacation land.”
