Well, it seems that "Venom Thrust" just "confirmed" that there's no 2007 tour

[FORD]

.....so this probably means that Ticketbastard will announce the dates by the end of the week.

Just kidding.... I don't want to lump myself in with that silly cunt, or "The Guy from Nanuet NY" or any of those other lying no nothing pieces of shit.

[FORD]

or should that be... KNOW nothing pieces of shit??

Oh well. Either way, they're pieces of shit, so that's what's important.

What in the hell is going on? I can't keep up with this shit anymore.

Have you seen the most recent pictures of Eddie?

Appears to be healthier. Hopefully he's taking it seriously, and (big surprise) that means no tour this year.

So look forward to the big "VAN HALEN 30TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR 2008, and hope that someone on Howdy Doody Mountain read my recommendations on how they can keep the public interest in this shit active for another year.

[EAT MY ASSHOLE]

Where are those recommendations? Are they a slam dunk?

Fall Tour Maybe?

[FORD]

Van HALEN was always a summer tour kind of band. I don't see them going in the Fall either. Next summer, most likely.

Which gives them plenty of time to get something out of either the studio or the vaults on the charts by Spring 2008, and do this shit right next year!

I hope so.

Van Halen 2008 Summer Tour.

USA here I come.

[TongueNGroove]

So where the fuck is DLR? Why is he not saying ANYTHING about this AT ALL?? Haven't heard a peep out of him at all since any of this was announced...

I mean the tour was announced, no word from Dave, ROHF announced, no word from Dave, ROHF he's a no show, no word from Dave, Tour canceled, no word from Dave, Eddie in rehab,no word from Dave, Eddie out of rehab, no word from Dave...WHERE THE FUCK IS DAVE??

Ohh that is right, he is just being himself and not giving a shit about his fans...he's too good to give a shit about his fans.+


One thing is for sure, if Hagar was involved, he would be saying SOMETHING! Cause Hagar actualy cares about his fans.

[binnie]

Nothing like optimism!

Everyone start praying...

I'm with you here.

Not only would he be saying something, he'd be telling everything - repeatedly - to everyone not on a tree by 3.

The usual shite of course, freedom to do whatever one wants.

And there's so much need for that, the sheep are always hungry.

Its all here, you just have to dig a bit..

In Brief:

On Reunion and Tour

- Wolfie was instrumental in getting the guys back together,
showing real talent at the jam, indicating with his Ipod where
Dad was getting it wrong.
Instant connection with Ed and Al, "It was a language they
had created, and was instantly familiar with again"

- Was pissed off at the fact that he wanted to perform JUMP
(Van Halen's biggest ever hit) at HOF and Velvet Guns & Roses
wouldnt agree to perform it... Dave didnt want to perform it
with the Paul Chafe-you band...

Im sure others can add to this..
There was whole interviews, where ya been Cabo Man ??

[Ellyllions]

Touring next year would NOT be a good idea.

Led Zeppelin is rumoured to be rehearsing for a reunion tour next summer with Jon Bonham on drums in honor of his father.

Not even the Classic Van Halen line-up should go out at the same time as Led Zeppelin.

You all are the authorities on things VH and I am the authority on all things Zep. That said, sorry kids, there is no such tour or rehearsals for any Zeppelin reunion. Just the normal yearly rumors.

And yes, Bonham's son is Jason..............but you'd never know it by his playing.

[Bonzo1026]

I apologize for putting this in main but the initial subject was raised in here. Below is what Plant's up to. I'm not seeing any time for rehearsals for any upcoming reunion tours. Maybe if he wasn't in his 60's he'd have the energy to do two things at once. The rumors started because 2008 will supposedly be 40 years since Zep formed. BUT, they formed in 1968 as the New Yardbirds and weren't Led Zeppelin until 1969 so technically 2009 will be 40 years. Save the rumors until then....................

Zeppelin is "rumoured" to tour just about every year, but it hasn't happened yet.

They actually did come close in 2003. Ironically enough, they were talking to the David Lee Roth Band about opening. But things fell apart. And they didn't even use Page being in rehab as an excuse.

The fact that Page & Plant haven't worked together at all in years isn't a good sign either. Zeppelin may have broke up in 1980, but those two never went more than 3 years without working together in one form or another. But now, Plant is referring to Zeppelin as a "boy band" and hasn't been in the same room with Page in about a decade.

I doubt it's happening. And even if they're thinking about it, they should hold off for another year and call it the 40th anniversary.

On the other hand..... could you imagine a Led Zeppelin - Van HALEN double bill??

That would be about the ONLY circumstance where I would accept Van HALEN as an opening band, and they would have to play a full set.

[bueno bob]

Well, getting something out and doing a real tour with Mike in 2008 for the 30th ann. would be good. Great way to come back after the 2007 flubfest.

As far as Zep goes...couldn't care less...their day is LOOOONG over...a tour with Jason might have worked in, oh, 95 maybe...but Page and Plant are FAR too long in the tooth to make that shit work anymore, my opinion...

[binnie]

Zep reunion? No chance.....

Just to nitpick a bit, it has been not quite a decade....about 9 years. They toured in 1998...

To be honest I dont know if cvh will ever tour again. I dont think that ed is ready and I think that they are starting to get to old. I really hope it does work though.

Really, it's crazy for them to do this without some solid product to sell.

They could make so much god-damn money with a live DVD for x-mas sales and then a summer tour.

I KNOW people have said this to them. It ain't rocket science.

Just remaster the fuckin' US Fest and put that out! Geeze.

I've heard that Eddie HATES the US Fest show, because of the band's drunken performance. I'm guessing "Sober Eddie" hates it even more.

Unfortunately, the record company types would probably brand it as "not suitable for official release" for this very reason.

Of course what the corporatist bean counters will never understand, and the fans DO, is that a performance doesn't have to be technically proficient in order to be FUCKING GREAT!!

And the US Festival was a FUCKING GREAT show. But I fear that the "OLD No. 7" remaster by our own Dave's PA Rental is probably the best version of that concert that we're ever going to see.

Yeah, but these are the same people who think Van Hagar cheese ballads were listenable, or that Van Slanderqueen is funny. They don't show a lot of good judgment.

And Anal Thrust claims to be a friend of PornoChick, I guess.

Hey, if it took them a year to come up with some new stuff, do a proper CVH box release and put in some solid rehearsal time, fuck it. What's another year? Not too long to wait for a reunion that's done up right and produces something special.

Problem is, how many years do they have left before they can no longer pull it off? Presuming they still can even at this late date.

However, if it's not gonna be something unique far as reunions go, and it's just gonna be a run through the greatest hits for the money, they might as well do it ASAP and get it over with.

[jharp84]

We have waited 22 years! One more will not be pain! BUT WE NEED A
FUCKIN ANSWER! LIKE 21 Years ago!!!

[Binky]

Tut, maybe Dave doesn't know any more than we do? I can't believe people are still whining that OMFG the tour is off I want an explanation blah. Well they promised us a tour, they didn't say yeah it's cancelled, so lets wait and see. Otherwise, stop making up stories in your heads. Obviously this isn't aimed for most of you, but one or two still needs a telling off and a spank. *^_^* \m/

1996 pissed me off.

2007 was more like a resigned shake of the head coupled with a laugh when all the dust settled.

Getting shafted with little else other than nonsensical explanations is just part of being a CVH reunion enthusiast over the last 11 years.

[DLR'sCock]

yawn, i am over it....

[evhfan5150]

I think they can pull it together next year. Dave and Ed just for once need to agree on something. But anyway '08 is going to be the year.

If I recall correctly he has ties into the William Morris agency that was slated to manage the 2007 VH "almost" tour.
