Define album. New material, a live compilation or yet another repackaging of the hits?

I'm sure there'll be another 'Best Of' in the next couple of years..The Power Of The Riff Compels MeComment

I'm not holding my breath waiting for them to do anything anymore. I stopped doing that years ago. On the one hand Dave gives us Rothisms about the value of one second, one minute, one week, one month, etc., but on the other hand actions speak louder than words.Comment

Even if Ed was tweakin on meth and Dave was sleepwalking in an Ambien induced coma, it couldn't possibly suck that bad.
I'm cautiously optimistic that we will see an album this year. Cautiously pessimistic that it will not be another "Fair Warning".Eat Us And Smile

With all the money they purportedly made on the "Greatest Hits Yet Again" jaunt, I would have thought they'd struck while the iron was hot. Since they didn't (and apparently have no plans to do so), I can only theorize that they're doing new music in the tried 'n' true Van Halen fashion: extra-fucking-ordinarily behind schedule. The good news behind this is that I simply don't give a shit anymore; I have the first six albums and they're not going to record anything to top that, or the new songs from BoV1.
Frankly, new music is simply not going to stand up to what's come before it, and thus it'll be anticlimatic and a disappointment. Especially without the original lineup being intact - Wolf could be the next coming of Jaco Pastorius and put Bootsy Collins and Victor Wooten to shame with one hand tied behind his back, and since Mike's not there, I STILL won't appreciate it. And the bottom line is that four hungry 20-somethings are going to record FAR better music than three 50-something millionaires and a 17 year old doing what dad tells him are going to. Each and every time.
That being the case, I'm almost hopeful nothing new happens musically; that way the recorded material with Roth is without tarnish, even if the band lineup and touring legacy isn't.Last edited by bueno bob; 01-13-2009, 02:50 AM.Twistin' by the pool.Comment

The analysis here is wonderful. Everyone was spot on correct.
The answer is:
The next VH album of new material with Dave will be released whenever VH wants to release it.
Of course, that's not going to happen before Wofie graduates, and Ed's upcoming wedding. Then add another 1 year, 5 years or 10 years on top of that, depending on the mood that day.I'm Stayin' Frosty!Comment
