Picked this up at a couple of other sites... hopefully BS from radio DJ's but who frickin knows?
According to Management, the Van Halen Tour with David Lee Roth has been indefinitely postponed. When Van Halen's management announced the tour on February 2nd, there still was no contract signed. Van Halen's management is now Eddie's girlfriend. Apparently Eddie and Alex had been rehearsing with Eddie's son, Wolfgang. The New "Best of" CD highlighting the David Lee Roth years has also been scrapped by Rhino.
Supposedly reported on the following radio stations:
WMMS 100.7 FM in Cleveland morning show
102.5 WDVE in Pittsburgh
97.3 WRVV in Harrisburg, PA
WAAF 107.3

At least Rikk's fake Eddie interview had some substance to it, this is just plain bullcrap.

Some posts over at Rolling Stone said CNN reported this, but I performed a complete scan of CNN and came up with tis finding: Bullshit.
When the shit hits the fan, close your mouth and duck.
The Busheep Clear Channel Propagandists started this rumor to stir shit up. Don't believe anything you hear from a corporate radio DJ.

Funny how when ONE DJ reports bullshit, every other DJ across North America begin reporting it as fact.
I can't see this being out of the realm of possibility. Our history with these guys proves that. I mean, Ed's portly 17 yr. old son is playing bass on one of the most anticipated tours in years. How crazy is that.
I hope, if it is postponed, canceled, whatever, that it is because Dave is sticking it to the sisters DRY.

I doubt it's cancelled or postponed. Here's why.......
Too much press has gone out about this recently. They wouldn't have given the Rolling Stone interview or even posted the reunion with Dave info on the VH official site had the contracts not been signed already. They may be fuck-ups in a lot of respects but I think they all learned a big lesson from 1996.
Also......
If the contracts had not been signed in advance, there is no way Live Nation would even begin setting up this tour. Even if it was with Gaygar the contracts would have to be signed first. How did VH know, and post on their official site, that it would be a 40 date tour? Because Live Nation contractually agreed to that many shows with the members of the band that signed the dotted line.
And.........
They have been really cautious this time around. Lips are sealed really tight in the DLR & VH camps this time. In 2002 there were leaks of info that was correct. And we all know what happened in 1996.
Don't you think Ed would want to be 100% certain before releasing the news of a Dave/VH reunion of sorts?
This rumour is pure radio bullshit.
hmm...i detect something brown, steamy, and smelly.

None of the mjor news outlets have picked up on this BS.
Just a bunch of DJs.
If it is proven that this news is BS it is really going to push all of the sheep at the links who are celebrating this over the edge.
So many rumors, so little time.

Yeah, I don't think that they would be releasing new band photos if there were still contract issues, especially after what happened with past reunion attempts.

Here's the "story" with somebody's name attached
this morning from Premier Radio Network...
VAN HALEN: Reunion Postponed(Posted 3:00 AM, 2/20/2007)
We learned last night from a source close to the band that Van Halen's reunion tour with David Lee Roth has been "indefinitely postponed." While Eddie, Alex, Dave and Eddie's son Wolfgang (replacing bassist Michael Anthony) have been rehearsing, their plans are now up in the air. We were told that when Eddie's girlfriend (and spokesperson) announced the reunion on February 2nd, there was no signed deal between the band, Roth and tour promoter Live Nation.
A Van Halen best-of highlighting the Roth years has also been scrapped by Rhino. A source at the label tells us they were unable to make a deal for the planned release.
Regardless of all this drama, Van Halen will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in New York on March 12th.
The last time Van Halen toured with David Lee Roth was in 1984. The last time Van Halen toured was in 2004 with Sammy Hagar.
We were unable to reach representatives for the Van Halen brothers last night. Roth's spokeswoman declined to comment. --Sal Cirrincione
Just for the record, I wouldn't put anything past those fuckups.
Van Halen is still touring this summer, don't believe the crap you see or hear.
Like I say...I will believe it when I see it happen.
I wouldn't be too quick to call it off. Maybe its just a tactic to keep up the buzz. The interview with DLR has a somewhat done deal demeanor about it. So unless DLR's interview was bs and his Rolling Stone interview bs and the photoshoot bs I'd keep a wait and see attitude. I'm still reluctant to put too much stock in this rumor. Without a DLR EVH reunion EVH might as well start offering guitar lessons.
I still think its all about $$$$. I bet EVH knows he can go a few years without Michael Anthony and make some serious dough and then say around 2010 bring Mikey back in the fold.

I want this to happen and i'm going to see it as many times and as close as i can..
For what it's worth, ive emailed Janie to see if i get any response from the "source" of the current pr mgmt.
I dont expect any reply any time soon, but maybe w/in a few days.
No, it cant surprise anyone if it did fall apart,based on history, but i'm not buying this latest rumor as of yet.
Now this is worth tuning in for:
Yep, lifted it from Dunn's sig..
im wonderin if there's any more footage to this story..a continuation maybe..?

I predict that we will see the new VH website updated very soon.
But I think in Dave's mind, this is good publicity.
The idea of this all falling apart pisses me off beyond belief! IF it all falls apart and they do not perform at the Hall of Fame they can all go to hell. I'll keep the 6 CVH remasters in frequent rotation, but I won't support ANYTHING ELSE DOWN THE ROAD! Eddie Van Halen could give a shit about VH fans! I'll go see the Atomic Punks play before VH, they will sound better anyway. If Dave explains that he wasn't part of the problem I will believe him because he has always been a straight forward with his fans (ei 1996 reunion), but there is a good chance his ego would be a factor. Hopefully this is BS and I'm getting pissed for no reason.
I'm not wasting a sticky on this crap, but I'll kick it to the top so I don't need to close any more dupes.
well...if Ed's girl friend is serving as band management, then...uh...it could be fucked. it's very possible that she jumped the gun on the entire thing. besides giving Ed bj's in the morning, what are her qualifications to manage the band?Originally posted by Vinnie Velvet
Good point.

I can guarantee you that everyone on this board agrees with that statement (except maybe the sheep trolls)Originally posted by jsadl

But it's going to take more than a vague "unnamed sources" press release from BCE state Media INC. to convince me that is the case.

Its been a lot of time since it was first reported on radio stations--and there has been NOTHING reported on it from CNN, FOX News, Billboard, Rolling Stone, MTV, etc.
Ed probably just woke up from a three week bender saying "tour? what tour? I never said anything about a tour.......he better be wearing a cup"
Not to be Capt. obvious, but if it's Clear Channel stations and if this is a Clear Channel tour, then that would lend to the credibility of this.
Is there any way to confirm either way?

I have to say, I wouldn't be surprised if this were true. They did the same thing in '96...and nobody believed the rumors of Gary Cherone when they first started appearing.
Eddie is able to make anything fall apart. We know that.
