I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.
We loved Andy, so we wanted to keep him. He was in both bands, but Nerve Agents broke up.
The Beatles will never get back together and David Lee Roth will never again sing with Van Halen.
When Phish broke up, I made some comment about how I'm not gonna go around playing 'You Enjoy Myself' for the rest of my life.
I can't think of anyone who's reformed for art's sake. That's why the Roses will never reform.
It's unfortunate that people go, 'Oh, wow, man, they can get Zakk Wylde to jump up there on stage, and it's Pantera again.' No, it's not, you know. It's not that simple.
As far as the bands that are reforming now, it's always nice to see old friends and hear some of those great songs, but it's just not our thing.
The only time people get pressured into doing reunions to make more money is when the current lineup is underperforming. And by bringing back the other guy, it increases their draw.
