20 Years Ago - Gary Cherone and Van Halen Part Ways
Twenty years ago, Gary Cherone left Van Halen. The band released Van Halen III in 1998 - went on a tour and that was it. I graduated high school in 1998 and I honestly don't remember much about this album. I did not own it and I never have. I guess it didn't get much radio airplay. I don't even remember the video for "Without You" either. It is posted below. Eddie Van Halen is dressed crazy - post grunge I guess. Definitely does not look like Van Halen to me. Some of the YouTube comments say it is Red Hot Chili Peppers-lite. That is probably true!
One album, one tour, then it was over: https://t.co/H6r6T1hR1I
