    WB say's new VH "Not commercial enough"

    VAN HALEN GET UP FOR BREAKFAST:
    Straight from the online pages of industry mag Hits - www.hitsdailydouble.com/news/rumormill.cgi:
    "STRIKE UP THE VAN: The first single from the retooled, Sammy Hagar-fronted Van Halen will be Up for Breakfast, one of three tracks produced by Glen Ballard. The other two are Learning to See and It's About Time. The band are set to hit the road this summer."
    I am working on additional information right now and hope to present an update of goings on shortly. I will add now a quote from one source with info from Warner Brothers, who are responsible for putting the new compilation together: "It's About Time is a given. It'll be on the release. The reason you "haven't heard it" is because the final product isn't done yet. Some people (at the label) thought it wasn't commercial enough."
    So it seems a more commercial tune has been selected as the lead single! And the compilation will not be released in June - later in July was the last I heard. Stay tuned for that update...

    Saw this in a thread over at The Links. Panic is a good way to describe the tone of the thread.

    Thats pretty funny considering you dont know what the lyrics are, nobody does, you dont even know what the song is about. It aint food either.

    Also sorry to burst your bubble, but Sammy aint fat anymore check out the latest pics of the band. He is in great shape.

    Yeah, he's in GREAT SHAPE - perfectly round.

    Sammy's so fat that when he jumps for joy - he gets stuck.

    If everyone here claims to be a David Lee Roth fan, then why do you guys spend so much time researching Sam's shit?

    Well if they manage to get it "commerical enough" I'm sure that Big Troubles will buy it.

    According to Hits Daily Double, the first single from the retooled, Sammy Hagar-fronted VAN HALEN will be "Up for Breakfast", o_ne of three tracks produced by Glen Ballard. The other two are "Learning to See" and "It's About Time". All three cuts are expected to surface o_n the band's upcoming best-of set, tentatively due this summer.
    The band will kick off the first leg of their massive North American tour o_n June 11 in Greensboro, North Carolina.

    Do any of you think that there are any DLR fans at WB who are pulling a few strings for us to get Dave back in?

    Glen Ballard produces wimp rock. A logical choice for Van Hagar.
