Thanks for sharing this Ron. Good read. Got a good laugh over this one: ““Believe it or not,” Eddie told Guitar World in 1990, “I did the Michael Jackson thing ‘cause I figured nobody’d know. The band for one—Roth and my brother and Mike—they always hated me doing things outside of Van Halen. I just said ‘Fuck, I’ll do it, and no one will ever know.’ So then it comes out and its song of the year and everything.”
