David Lee Roth did break his social media silence following public accusations from Alex Van Halen, specifically related to an aborted Eddie Van Halen tribute tour.

In October 2024, after Alex Van Halen's memoir "Brothers" was released and he gave interviews discussing the issues surrounding a planned tribute tour for Eddie, David Lee Roth posted a video titled "LA River Yacht Club" on his YouTube channel and Instagram. This was seen as his response to Alex's claims that Roth had refused to pay tribute to Eddie during the proposed tour, essentially "ruining" it. Alex stated that Roth "popped a fuse" when the idea of overtly acknowledging Eddie during the show was brought up.

While Roth's video didn't directly address Alex's accusations verbally, his posting of new content after a period of relative silence was widely interpreted by fans and media as his characteristic, cryptic way of responding to the ongoing Van Halen drama.

It's important to note that the relationship between David Lee Roth and the Van Halen brothers has long been tumultuous, with Alex himself stating in his book and interviews that they "have always hated each other" on some level, despite their musical chemistry.
