I DID NOT REALLY LIKE KEVIN CRONINS

I like your show. JUMP

I bet a lot of big rock acts have have ways of relieving themselves without having to leave the stage. Especially if it’s a big act when you gotta go you gotta go and a lot of these guys were alcoholics. So they all had to go a lot. The show must go on

Sammy said in his book that alex pissed in a garbage can so he didn't leave the stage.

geeze I think Alex has been spelling his name wrong, it's "T" "U" "R" "D".

all anyone has to do is watch the videos of Eddie and Alex when Dave and Sammy were fired. both of those men sat there and wallowed in the nasty. the first time, Dave, I was shocked at Eddie and Alex was a revelation because he had never really even spoken before. the second time was "okay they both are really nasty guys". what they did to Michael was just a continuation of that time and thought. Alex has said Michael "didn't add anything" musically. well neither did he in that sense. at least Michael added the high vocal backup singing ALEX.

This video is 9 minutes too long. Nothing but a bunch of hot air.

He is an asshole. And a complete DORK.

Kevin sucks!

Back on the Road Again

Gotta "separate the artist from the art" sometimes. VH music sounded "different" to me after I read the book by their former Manager. Wish I had NOT read the book!

Jump all day long

Well when you drink a lot there's inevitably going to be a lot of liquid coming out the other end.

piss jar???? ruclips.net/video/D0u6Lb6RCz4/видео.html

Just because you like the music of a band doesn’t mean you have to cover for their shitty behavior. Alex and Eddie both seem like they’d be a holes while drunk- then again, lots of people are.. Edit: I just googled Greg the drum tech. He actually committed suicide sometime after Alex fired him.

Stop complaining and do the job your paid for or get another job

Two questions... First: Was Alex a Mel Blanc fan?? Second: How often did Al say... "Oh piss boy... Wait for the shake!!" Bahahaha!!! Sorry, sorry... can't help me-self!! 🤣🤣🤣I'm quite sure that Al wasn't the 1st to think of this method of relieving himself!! Just ask Phil Collins! Kidding...

I choose JUMP.

ive got a neck injury similar to Alex. and it's so painful.. i wonder if Alex is still in pain from it.. And that's maybe why he sold his drum kits.. 😳 can't wait to read the book.

Awesome book! I finished it last week.

piss jar is normal the abuse is sickening

Gary was the first guitarist that made me want to learn guitar!! Been playing 35 years ...

Hey dude, Greg Emerson passed away so of course you're not going to hear from him. Do your research

I had the opportunity to speak with the guy who not only toured as Alex’s drum tech but also fabricated and painted several of his highly customized kits. He told me about the piss bucket, and how one of the kick drums was actually a beverage cooler in disguise. He had nothing but good things to say about Alex. I’m sure he was no angel, but like you mentioned he struggled with alcoholism most of his life so I’m not surprised that he mistreated some people. Let’s give Alex the respect he deserves for his legacy as a key component to one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

So what? You should have quit if you were treated so badly.

It doesn't matter now. None of this Van Halen infighting matters now. It's not fair if you're judging someone back in their drinking days. It's a chapter from a long time ago when we all didn't have many problems and I wasted too much of my youth trying to emulate these guys!

Cmon man....as a person with any self respect u GOTTA draw the line somewhere, I dont give a damn if its Van Halen or not. If someone asks me to handle thier piss, I ll make them drink it. And lets be honest, the interviews with both Al and Eddie on youtube, they come off as adolescent pricks....

I see nothing wrong with having a piss jar to keep from leaving the stage I don't know what the big deal is as long as he don't have a turd jar.

Why would DLR pop a fuse??? Also Alex needs to provide some context as well. There is no way DLR would ever be against acknowledging Eddie....I mean this just sounds stupid. Until recently I have NEVER heard Alex speak, I have heard DLR speak for 45 plus years I know where DLR stands but not Alex....I side with DLR until I have some real proof otherwise. Not for nothing DLR would kick Alex's ass.

According to Sammy's book, or it might have been Noel's can't remember.....it was a big plastic trash bin, not a jar.

The only people I'll ever put any stock in are people who were close, thats it.

Probably not a good idea to mistreat somebody who has a jar of piss at the ready.

Edd and Alex were abused by their mom from a young age . She was very vile with her mouth, she would belittle them. She even belittled their father telling him to go get a real job and that he was a shitty musician. The men ran to music to escape their mom.

Are u serious? He got paid alot of money, now he's going to write a book, no wonder Alex doesn't want to play anymore. You were compensated.Next.

I knew about slop bucket but heard it was a 35 gallon rubber trash can. I believe the roadie.

The majority of headlining bands back then had piss jars side stage for up front band members and behind the drum kit for the drummer. This was only really a thing for drinking bands. All Drinking bands😂. Thats why they each had a solo. I had one when I played, otherwise you can’t slam beers😂. Great video brother.

beer makes assholes

beer ruins everything

I've worked for everybody from Celine Dion, to Slayer to Beyonce'. But the fact I was made to clean bed sheets on 5 tour buses for Daddy Yankee's crew... Yeah! I believe it and I believe he knows Al probably don't drink enough water. Growing up in Oakland, CA I know what SCHLITZ malt liquor smells like.

I’ll tell you this. Most drummers have a bucket or jar to pee in for long shows. The show must go on. 😂

Who cares about this wasted up band .

I would be very surprised if Al was the only Rockstar drummer who had a piss jar on stage

Who gives afuk

It's not the first time we heard how badly the Van Halen brothers treated people

If you are an alcoholic and drink beer like water obviously you’re gonna feel like pissing all the time. A rock star with a big wet stain in front of his pants not gonna look cool onstage 😂😂😂

I mean I would be surprised if there wasn't a piss jar man,And he didn't ask him to drink it

Look: I love Van Halen; one of my favorite bands but damn, the Van Halen bros seem like a complete NIGHTMARE.

I saw Kevin at a show backstage about 30 years ago and he was an absolute nightmare. REO was a so so band and Kevin is a nobody, ahas been

Van Halen was a great band, Eddie revolutionized rock guitar playing every bit as much as Hendrix did, Alex was the perfect drummer for the band. That being said the brothers pretty much fucked over everyone they worked with in one way or another; Roth, Sammy, Mikey, the Extreme guy, and a few singers that were told they had the VH gig but didn’t. So yeah I believe Alex treated his tech like shit.

I think it was a brilliant move by Alex. He didn’t have time to run to the rest room & the show must go on. When you go to a urologist or get a physical you are asked to pee in a container & someone handles it. What is the big deal? I would gladly accept that as a responsibility to work for a major touring band. I would just request they supply disposable sterile gloves and/or quickly wash my hands afterwards. They can put that in their rider along with the green M&M’s. Then go back to getting paid well, fed, free drugs, and alcohol & banging groupies!
