It was fun while it lasted, but it never seemed real to me. I could not believe I was in Van Halen.

When I was in Van Halen I was hitting notes that were out of my range. I never went for those registers before until Eddie pulled it out of me.

Dave thought he was bigger than Van Halen the band. So there was this catfight going on for 10 years.

If I had had a chance to tour with Van Halen before the record, I think it would have been a different record.

You have Extreme and Van Halen and the history that I have with other people I played with. There are some effects that will hopefully break that stereotype.

Van Halen is a work in progress.
