I just heard from a very reliable source, Ex Bass tech for Michael Anthony, Kevin King Dugan. He and MA have patched things up and they are both in negotiations with Eddie and Alex Van Halen to join VH on a surprise original VH members tour in 2016! David Lee Roth running off at the mouth as always, spilled the beans during an interview in his home in Tokyo. The Van Halen camp hasn't commented either way when asked of the reunion, but Eddie and Alex as we know, would have said it was BS in the past without hesitation so........................

Be sure to get your copy of the new Witness Protection Program today, when you play on key you'll no longer be afraid to sing. Its like starting a whole new life!
Bass tip of the day: Doing your own setup and you need to adjust the truss rod with those always uncomfortable allen keys you get with your bass always hurts your hand, well here is what you can use instead of your hand, a drill just insert the allen key into the truss rod and then close the drill chuck around the rest of the allen key as shown in this photo it takes a few tries but you will master it in no time making truss rod adjustment quick and easy
