In my writing with Extreme, there are heavy themes. The cover photo has me with a gun to my neck. I am not advocating suicide. I am taking the philosophy that man is the measure of his own fate. Gary Cherone advocatecoverextreme Change image and share on social
When I was in Van Halen I was hitting notes that were out of my range. I never went for those registers before until Eddie pulled it out of me. Gary Cherone eddiehalenhit Change image and share on social
I did some research and tried to pull out some old, classic Van Halen that they had not played in 10 or 15 years. I think that was Sammy's mistake. I he didn't want to do the Dave stuff. Gary Cherone classicdavehalen Change image and share on social
Spitfire asked me if I had a problem talking about Van Halen or Extreme. I really don't. There are people who are just going to want to know what it was like to play with Eddie. Gary Cherone askeddieextreme Change image and share on social

We didn't gel with Poison and the Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi was the best of the pop metal bands, but we never fit in with the hair metal stuff. We were never as hip as the Chili Peppers. We were in the middle. Gary Cherone bandbonchili share on social
When I was singing Jamie's Cryin', people were going out of their mind because it was the first time they got to see Eddie, Michael and Alex play those songs. That was a thrill. Gary Cherone alexcryineddie Change image and share on social
