2007-01-25 Michael Anthony not joining Van Halen reunion

Michael Anthony will not be taking part in what seems to be an impending Van Halen reunion featuring original front man David Lee Roth.

True to form with Anthony's inclusion in "The Other Guys" section of the website, he is working with VH other frontman, Sammy Hagar in a project called The Other Half while he will be replaced as bassist in the reunited VH by Wolfgang "No Nepotism Involved" Van Halen, Eddie's 16-year old son. Now that is a big pair of shoes to fill I don't care who your daddy is. Let's see if they all place nice together at their upcoming induction into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame

2009-03-31 Michael Anthony a Chickenfoot

Submitted by StuntPope
I was listening to the radio the other day and recognized Sammy Hagar singing but couldn't place the song. Was it an old Ronnie Montrose number? No, a couple days later I heard it again and it turned out to be Chickenfoot, a new fangled "supergroup" comprised of Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani and drummer Chad Smith (ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers)
