00:00Riff TV presents Meltdown's Meltdown.
00:08It's Detroit's Rock Station, 101 WRAF, The Riff, Everything That Rocks.
00:12Here's the title track to Tool's latest.
00:14This is Fear Inoculum on The Riff.
00:18All right.
00:19Okay, that gives us, what, 10 minutes or so?
00:22All right, let's go shoot a video.
00:23Come on.
00:26Tell you what, lots happening here at The Riff.
00:29We've got your final chances to jet off to Vegas with us for Sin City.
00:33We've got fall concerts.
00:35The Red Wings are starting up.
00:37Haunted Houses.
00:38Oh, and plus my Talking Rock with Meltdown podcast.
00:41We had a big one this week.
00:42Diamond David Lee Roth was on.
00:44I mean, how cool is that?
00:46Oh, look, a Marconi for Top Rock Station in 2019.
00:56All right, getting back to Dave.
00:57You might have seen his cameo in Motley Crue's The Dirt.
01:02Here's Dave talking about that.
01:04Try to follow along.
01:05I don't know what goes on in the actual movie.
01:09Lies, allegations, innuendo spread by my competitors to ruin my good name, probably.
01:15But beyond that, those kinds of lies, rumors, and innuendo were generally generated by me over the years.
01:23So, we have a laundry here.
01:25I, myself, have gone from high karate to high cholesterol.
01:28I have a three-pack, not a six-pack.
01:29The kid that I saw in the movie has a six-pack.
01:34And as opposed to an unflinching, realistic, organic, critical review of my career, I'd prefer a fantastical, revved-up kind of Disney version.
01:44And I think he fills the bill.
01:45What do you think?
01:46Dave also gave me his thoughts about the canceled Van Halen summer tour.
01:50Well, it's been canceled a number of times, and I think Van Halen's finished, and this is the next phase.
01:56I've inherited the band, de facto, whatever that means.
01:59I think it means you've inherited it, carried this proudly.
02:02Van Halen isn't going to be coming back in the fashion that you know.
02:05And that being said, Eddie's got his own story to tell, not mine to tell it.
02:10You can listen to the entire interview at WRF.com.
02:13It's highly entertaining.
02:16How's that, dude?
02:16How much time have I left?
02:17Still got seven minutes on that Tula song.
02:19Oh, my God.
02:21All right, just wrap it up.
