I would like Van Halen fans to know how much I truly appreciate each and every one of you. Without you there is no Van Halen.

I have always and will always feel a responsibility to give you my best. At the moment I do not feel that I can give you my best. That’s why I have decided to enter a rehabilitation facility to work on myself, so that in the future I can deliver the 110% that I feel I owe you and want to give you.

Some of the issues surrounding the 2007 Van Halen tour are within my ability to change and some are not. As far as my rehab is concerned, it is within my ability to change and change for the better. I want you to know that is exactly what I’m doing, so that I may continue to give you the very best I am capable of.

I look forward to seeing you in the future better than ever and
I thank you with all my heart.

Love,

Ed


- This is great news. I wish him the best. God bless, Ed. See ya with Roth.

Wow...he's a mess

Well I'm glad he's getting it together, I wonder what the other problems are he alluded to? Well the important thing is he's getting things straightened out

why didn't this numbnut just wait a week. Was it that crucial that now when he's being inducted he has to take care of himself........

Sorry to all the VH fans here, I know what it feels like to have someone not like the person your into...(ie Jerry Garcia) but damn what a narcosistic narcissistic nard.

Yeah I agree. He's also admitted in an interview that he's been going back and forth thru rehab for years, maybe this time he'll actually stay. But I honestly do hope he can stay straight and gets better once and for all.
