These photos are getting a lot of discussion at links on Mike having the VH road case in his new Schecter bass add.. And his band listed as VH in the second photo & not Chickenfoot or The Circle..
Harmless or placed at the front on purpose..?

nice idea and good thing to consider….. I wouldnt read much into it though. All kinds of little tidbits though huh???….. pics like this, Dave’s contract with VH expired, Eddie’s Steinberger GL2T being restored… hmmmmmm thoughts to wonder about…. lol

cool pics for sure.

Its simple really. The name Van Halen is more likely to sell more Basses than Chickenfoot or The Circle.

If they get sued, they get sued. Everybody will know that Schecter has a new Michael Anthony Bass out. What’s the old saying, There is no such thing as bad publicity.

This will add fuel to the van hagar fire…

It also shows Chickenfoot on the road case sitting behind the amp head

…and on the left side you can see he’s a backer of Halloween (the pumpkin) and Ford cars (the Ford GT supercar).

Why is this important?

I was pointing that out because everyone is pointing out the Van Halen roadcase thats all

It’s front & center.. that’s not on accident. Staged promo shots are well thought out. In my eyes this is the ‘hint’ that MA is back, and unfortunately, sam will be following along.

Its a road case , your right Vain its very thought out , whats going to sell more , The Circle/ Chickenfoot or a Van Halen road case ? If you look on there facebook page Schecter is promoting the new Guitar World with EVH on the cover and several more pics of Van Halen road cases

We’ll wait and see.. Why would MA want to promote VH after how shitty Ed has been to him? Also, what serious rock bass player doesn’t know that MA played in VH? It just seems very odd to have ‘Van Halen’ so prominent in the shot. Maybe it’s nothing.

Why? Money, need more money…

I guess… but IMO they’re kidding themselves if they think anyone really cares to hear that catalog again. Especially after the 04 tour.

I would like one more Hagar-led tour with a sober Eddie, even though I much prefer Dave. Let’s face it, there are very few VH tours left. Another tour with Dave will not be considered anything special. A VH reunion with Sammy and Mike on bass would be special. And if that led to the original line-up going on tour…

I really don’t see what would be special about it. The songs are weak and forgettable, there’s nothing special about it. The original 4 would have been special in 1996 and 2007.
