I agree that Van Halen did ROCK and greatly influence music we have today...
BUT
The band you have featured here is NOT VAN HALEN! It is a band called ERUPTION (taken from a song by VH) and is a "Cover Band" that Immatates Van Halen in concert.
If you look closely you can see that this is not David Lee Roth or Eddie Van Halen. AND the Logo even tells you it is Eruption.
As my old pal Gordo says:
"You want plain, old pots or plates? Go see the other guys. You want whimsy and creativity? Gary's the man!"

my pots are lead-free, microwaveable and dishwasher safe, just don't drop them!
Mary Lee got her pots and says: "Love 'em both......I'm also much relieved to find that both pieces are useable in any of the traditional manners, micro, dishwasher, etc., something I'd wondered about.
I'm truly delighted ....the glaze is so very much nicer in person. Photos do not do it justice, alas! "
Gary Rith is a full-time studio potter and also an instructor of pottery at Cornell University's Pot Shop.
Gary started learning pottery in 1983. In 1985 he served as an apprentice to Dean White of Deansboro, NY and earned a bachelor's degree in art from Bennington College in 1987. He has been a full-time sculptor and potter since 1997. Gary started his business in New Hamspshire, where he was selected as a member of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen in 2004 and in 2005 was named one of New Hampshire's Emerging Ceramics Artists. He moved to the Ithaca, NY area in 2006, near where he grew up, and is happily making pots and sculpture in a purple house on Fall Creek. Gary likes to laugh, and his first goal is to have fun making pots.

From Quebec, Mags gets excited:
GUESS WHAT? My pots arrived! Oh my GOD! They are beautiful and you are soooooooooo sweet
another happy pig lover wrote:
Thank you so much for the prompt delivery...... I LOVE it!!! This day has been very stressful, and your package certainly brightened it. :-) (Sometimes all ya need is a couple of pigs!)
These will be favorites.
Thanks again, M.P.
When Mona opened up her box of pots she said:
I went all gooshy 'cause they're absolutely amazing! The pigs are gosh-darned cute, and the glaze-work is gorgeous! I can't keep my hands off them! Seriously! I keep finding excuses to walk by them .....
Lucia has something to say:
Gary -
You're awesome.
The vase is beautiful!! It's even more lovely than it looked in the photo. And the surprise, I laughed so loud at its cuteness that a co-worker came in and asked what was so funny. Thank you so much! I felt just like it was Christmas here in the office this morning, and I'm smiling. Wooooohooo!!! You're excellent.
--Lucia
E.S. sez:
The package made it in excellent condition! I absolutely loved them. I almost couldn't part with the pig mug, but I gave it to my coworker for her birthday who is in love with pigs.
and more happy customers say:
"Gary, my pots arrived! They're beautiful just as I expected
I just wanted to thank you ever so much...adorable." Maggie

this band invented the term 'rock on'
ACK! I can't take anymore! No more spandex! No prancin' with the devil.
Oooo...but I see those boots again.
ARGH! I had successfully blocked those furry leg warmers out of my memory! Man, I hope Roth has a sense of style this time around around ... LOL
The 80's are going to be so hard to explain to my boys when they ask ... LOL
I loved the '80s. Then again, I look good in fuschia.
It is easy to imagine cm in big puffy, well moussed hair.
Lucia, we change direction Tuesday.
Gordo, there are many reasons I am glad I don't have kids--not the least of which is the ....excesses of he 80s.
Thankfully, I was an unfashionable dork in the 80's. (Still am, actually) I don't have too many sins to answer for in that regard.
Well, I was referring to the fashion excesses, such as myself and all that hair pictured at the blog. I never owned FUZZY boots though.
Fess up. I know both of y'all owned fuzzy boots that you wore on Halloween because you wanted to be Roth.
Looking forward to a change in direction...
well, Tuesday's music IS flamboyant 80s, but still....
The higher the hair, the closer to god. I miss pouff.
Flamboyant is OK, but I'm definitely spandexed out. Is it time to ask questions?
Is it spandex?
Is the hair higher than a bread box?
Are there women?
Does anyone have a tail?
