EXCLUSIVE: Van Halen Coming To Australia
Post by: Dave-O 4 July, 2012 - 9:08 AM

Rock legends Van Halen are in talks with two promoters to come down to Australia this October.

Triple M music reporter Nui Te Koha said they were going to be here in August/September but that looks like it's going to be delayed.

"They're going to do Japan in November and one major promoter is talking to Van Halen about October, so it looks very good," he said.

See the photos from their current world tour here.

As you can see in the video above, earlier in the year 'Diamond' David Lee Roth, posing with his handsome dog Russ, hinted that Van Halen would be bringing their 'super-size' tour to Australia.

Sounds promising ...

Still, would like to see and hear a lil more action stateside though ...

Let's hope so for our Aussie fans. Remember this time last year we were hoping GET READY meant getting some vh on July 4th, then nothing came. And the Aussie gig was cancelled. Everything turned around in 2012.

wooo!!!!

don't let us down, boys.

The wheels are in motion...let's hope they don't fall off. ;)

Our friends in the (other) land Down Under deserve to see the REAL Van Halen. If a Devil remembers correctly, so far all they have been able to see was this abortion.....

:barf:

Funny thing is though.... as much as Cherone was a horrible fit for the band, in retrospect, he was better than Hagar. http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/teufel/d025.gif

Van Halen really does have some making up to do for the Aussie fans --- not only because of the Soundwave debacle (not their fault) --- but this awful Van Cherone tour where Fairy Gary was rubbing his ass in his leisure suit and generally making himself look like a young Ted Danson jerkoff begging for a pink slip.

At least a young Ted Danson was about boning chicks and serving up drinks --- Fairy Gary was all about rubbing his ass onstage and making us sorely miss the Daze of Diamond Lee.

The Mighty VH finally to land here in October.. Fingers crossed

Hadn't watched that clip in a long time. Appears the Bassplayer™ was playing more than simple root notes on that song... hmmm?

"Our friends in the (other) land Down Under deserve to see the REAL Van Halen. If a Devil remembers correctly, so far all they have been able to see was this abortion....."

With the hair and threads, Ed looks like early 80s Jimmy Page. FWIW, that song and Fire In The Hole were the only two songs on that album that I found to be decent. And if anybody thinks Tattoo is the worst song in the VH catalog, please listen to How Many Say I and reevaluate.

That awful turd is the perfect example of EVH having too much control over the final product --- throw DLR in the mix and that garbage never sees the light of day
