Off topic,
MA does own a 91 MM Stringray

I always thought that MA has the best attitude out of the lot of the band.
 
I read an old interview (right after Fair Warning) that was located in a recent Guitar One magazine (the one with Ed on the cover) and Ed had nothing but bad things to say about Mike. Anyone else catch it? I'll try to ad quotes when I get home.
 
Well met them all and Mikey was very very nice, but this was 1993 and some members of the band changed a little bit from what I hear.

I think the band should get together with performance coach Phil Towle and do a reunion doc. like Metalica.

.. or a better fit might be an episode of Jerry Springer... :D
 
Was Michael Anthony ever an endorsee? I seem to remember Mikey playing Ernie Ball basses exclusively around 1991-1995. Anyone know this?

Maybe. He seems to play whatever is going. When Mr Van Halen was playing Peavey guitars I seem to remember he was playing Peavey basses too.
 
You are right about the Peavey thing. He was playing Peavey basses in 1998. I know shortly thereafter he got his own Yamaha signature bass. I think he should have stayed with the Stingray bass!
