Eddie Van Halen sat in the recording studio with an indignant expression on his face. He hated hearing Sammy bloviate about his CaboWabo tequila company. The fact that Sammy's net worth would soon eclipse Eddie's was untenable. In order to heal rifts between the two, Sammy would have to stop promoting his tequila during concerts. When Sammy was given a cease and desist order, he was befuddled. Eddie walked a few blocks and entered a nondescript building. If Eddie was honest, he wished he had Sammy's aplomb. Eddie felt snookered into letting Sammy have free rein to grow his brand while being in the band. There was such a maelstrom within the group they refused to tour - which was unfortunate given playing live shows had always been the band's wheelhouse. Alex was so depressed whenever he spoke he was indecipherable. Michael Anthony sauntered up to Eddie and said, "Hey man, you look great!" his voice dripping with sarcasm. Eddie had a bottle of Jack Daniels in his hand. "This is the elixir to looking so good," Eddie said slurred. "Here's a madcap idea. We go on a world tour and consummate Sammy as our lead singer." Eddie winced.*****
