What`s the Brown M&M`s story about? How in the world does Eddie play that!? What the heck is on the cover of "Fair Warning?" Does Alex really need three or four bass drums? Where did they dig up David Lee Roth, anyway? Ask away, and I`ll try to help you become one with all things Van Halen.

Experience
13,534 repeat listens of "Women and Children First." I think I'm starting to understand it now, but I might be wrong.

Subject: eddie van halen's health issues

Question
Does Eddie still smoke cigarettes after his cancer scare, and if so why doesn't someone say something to him about the fact that he is going to die if he doesn't stop smoking! Chew Gum!!!

Answer
Howdy Matt -

All press reports in the last year or so describe Eddie as a "recovering alcholic and smoker," which would imply he has quit.  I guess we'll know when VH hits the stage on tour this week if that's really the case.

Quitting smoking's a rough thing...but that certainly doesn't mean his doctors, Valerie, LOTS of people haven't told Eddie to cut it out or it could be all over for him.

Say a prayer for him, that's the best we can do.

Rock On - KC
