      I feel like Wolf would agree to play Eds parts

        The problem with that is that then it looks like Ed was the problem why they couldn't all reform.

        Which is probably true of course.

          Maybe, just maybe they can hire that fucktard hack who currently sings for Journey and Dave can lip-sync to that. Who would know?

            I think that because this is truly the end of the line for Van Halen, there’s a chance Mike could show up too… especially since this is the end of Dave’s career and possibly his life, you might see a couple surprises. They’re not performing as Van Halen so anything can happen. I feel that Dave ain’t gonna be around much longer, that’s what his final message sounded like.

              This is beyond fucking depressing….

              Knowing that Sam’s band will be the only Van Halen music touring (albeit generic fucking garbage)

              I’ll bet any money you wanna bet Sam will be on the phone with Alex the day after Dave passes….

              If Dave wasn’t seriously ill, why wouldn’t he just end his touring career and still record new music…… “objects in the rear view mirror are probably me, Ed.” Sounds likes he’s right behind him….

                    Still a few tickets available for Dave's last run when I last looked tickets @ $700 or $1700. I don't think Vegas is doing that well COVID wise so who knows it could all end up even getting postponed or cancelled.

                      It's funny to think back on how fucking insane it seemed at the time to pay a ticket agency(scalper) $150 for 2 second row Tampa arena tickets in 2002...

                        Controversial - just bring out Vai to do it while Dave dances around?

                            Sad to hear the news.

                            I'm planning on being in Vegas for one of the shows.

                            Would love to meet some of the people here.

                            Probably don't remember me, but you folks introduced me to the depths of Dave, along with social media banter before social media was a thing.
                            Much love 💘

                              I can imagine a one time tour with multiple guitarists paying tribute to Ed...

                                I'm hoping he can get Mike, Alex, and Wolfie for one show.

                                Make things come full circle in a sort of way
