    If the dates are in september that means they would start rehearsals at least 60 days in advance that puts it in july so we are looking at new music soon. Somebody somewhere will hear the new music and put it at there .

    How do you know they haven't?

    Remember Dave is leader of this band again. I would not even discount a Cinco de Mayo encounter.....but I will state: No Tequila was served.

    Put this show on the road already. One of the greatest shows Ive ever seen was GNR before the illusion albums were released. Its an added bonus to hear brand new tunes BEFORE they are made public.Makes those bucks you pay for tix a bit more reasonable.

    I like how the promoters are letting everyone know it's Van Halen with David Lee Roth. Unlike the US, Australian radio does not play much CVH and a Dave-fronted VH has NEVER played here. There is a strong, core CVH fan base Down Under and a lot of young people who like classic hard rock are discovering the CVH era. But I suspect that most of the general hard rock audience in Australia was not aware that Dave is back. The announcement is already generating a lot of excitement here. I've had friends call me who are not big VH fans to say they are definately going because it's Dave-VH.

    I would not rule out some live dates in the US before they leave for Australia. Late August-early September? Or is that not possible?

    I think the setlist will include 2 or 3 new tunes and 2 or 3 classics not played on the last tour.

    Not at all... and you don't put much confidence in what a former, disgruntled employee who took down the company says either.

    It's a common management practice... you only allow paid consultants or sub-contractors to publicly represent your company on rare occasions like a special product release. ie... 2007 VH Tour press conference. Beyond that you're shuffled to the back room and paid well to shut up and be amazing at what you do. You don't get to attend core team meetings, social lunches nor the company picnic...

    Tell me you've seen anything but that from Roth the last 4 years..?

    Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

    If you want to go down this route, then would it be good form for one of upper management/owners to launch what was effectively a competing product (Crazy from the Heat)?

    Just sayin...its not like anyone is saying anything these last three years. All is good

    How easy or expensive is it for our New Zealand buddies to get over to Australia? Is it a fairly inexpensive flight like a Los Angeles to Seattle type thing with many flights per day?

    Okay. That is very do-able for the NZ fans. That's similar to a CA to TX flight. About halfway across the US. Not bad at all.

    Old news for me but alas I have not been online for very long lately.
    Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

    I hope the band plays to the best of their abilities for our brothers Down Under; fuck, we've had it pretty good in America far as CVH (or Van Halen with Roth) goes in terms of at least being able to see the band, and the Australian Army Contingent deserves a great show. Keep Ed away from the Foster's!
