He was just too ill.”īelow is the entire interview U-Man and Favazz interview with Anthony:
He was going over to Europe and having some treatments done or whatever and it never materialized. “Things kind of were progressing and then I guess Eddie was kind of ill. And they did ask me about coming back and doing the reunion,” said Anthony.
“I actually did get a call from their camp, actually Irving Azoff’s office, I don’t know, three, four years ago, a few years ago now. “I’m just kinda lettin’ that happen and I’m sure at one point we’ll talk again or even get together.”Īnthony, who said he last spoke with Eddie three years ago, confirmed the story that he was in talks with Van Halen regarding a reunion. “Alex has been pretty much grieving or however you wanna put it, pretty much been to himself,” said Anthony. “I have texted with Wolfie a couple of times and everything’s all good.”Īnthony added that he hopes to reconnect with Alex in the future. “I spoke briefly with Alex right after Eddie passed but I wanted them to have their privacy,” said Anthony. Louis he made contact with Alex and Wolfgang Van Halen shortly after Eddie Van Halen’s passing. So no shit, there I was.Michael Anthony told KSHE 95 in St. I’m a sucker for this kind of technicolor space opera, and for fun heist stories, and for clever storytellers. (“The next person to ask me why anyone else at the shitting table got invited can show themself out the shitting airlock, right?”) I have to give a shout out here to Captain Pham, the host of the game, who spends the entire story Done With Everything. I loved this story because it drew me in and kept me guessing–and I loved all of the players in it, sketched out with dialog and action. (One thing I asked Wren right away is if there are more stories about Esmat, because I want to read more about her and the fascinating universe around her.)Īnd all that? Is the sumptuous backdrop for a heist that takes place during a game of chance, one that keeps you guessing about just what Esmat’s plan is until the end.
There’s an incredible amount of world building depth visible in less than 5000 words.
You know you’ve only just scratched the surface as you follow the plots and tales of Esmat, the titular storyteller. You get thrown right into a colorful, rich universe full of myriad aliens and people and cultures without apology. I knew Wren Wallis‘s The Storyteller’s Sleight was special from the first paragraph. This is not a story that tentatively dips its toes into the world or winks coyly at being space opera. Wait, let me back up and tell you the whole story. And that’s how I ended up at the gambling table with a motley collection of aliens.
