I'm A Songwriter. I've Got Ideas In

I'm A Co-writer, Publisher Of That Song ["right Now" ], So For It To Get Accepted, We Had To Sign Off On It. I Signed Off In A Second. "you Bet That Anyone Can Use This. I Don't Care. You Can Use It For Anything." If It Is To Inspire People In The Positive Sense.

We Needed Time Off From Each Other After Our Last Tour Because There Was A Lot Of Personal Stuff We Had To Take Care Of. Eddie Needed Hip Replacement Surgery. Al Needed His Back Worked On. And I Was Going To Have A Baby.

I Had A Solo Career Before Van Halen. My Fan Base Filtered Through Van Halen With Me And Came Right On Out The Other Side With Me.

Overall, We Had About 50 Meetings Where The Brothers Would Say That I Couldn't Do Any Solo Records, I Couldn't Write For Other People, I Couldn't Do This And I Couldn't Do That. These Guys Were Trying To Nail My Feet To The Ground.

It Took Me A Long Time To Put It To Use In Things, But The Name Of My Publishing Company Is Nine Music, And "red" Became My Theme Song.
