Fair Warning

1995. The year it all goes to shit for Van Hagar. What will be the future of Van Halen?

Show Notes

They did it!  Van Halen held their own against the grunge tide.  While many of their contemporaries fell under the wheel of the new "corporate rock" paradigm shift, Eddie and Co. managed to keep their trajectory.  For a while.  All that goes up, must come down.  I think that's in the Bible somewhere.  Cracks are starting to form in the once impenetrable unit.  Eddie and Alex are battling the bottle with mixed results.  Sammy is expanding his family.  Mikey?  Right now, Mike really might be envisioning that solo album.  All that said, "Balance" is a fine album with even better B-sides as it turns out.  "Grow it long.  Shave it off.  Life is hard.  Never soft." -Samuel Roy Hagar

What is Fair Warning?

Jared, Chris, and Augie go balls to nuts on one of the best rock innovators / party bands of all time, Van Halen. Starting at the backyard shows to singers who come and goes.
