They've been advertising a Van Halen live performance on a local classic rock radio station here in Florida. A short time ago I saw a story that Dave thinks Van Halen is done. Today I saw Dave is going to open for Kiss on another final Kiss Tour. I also saw a story claiming a new album called 2020 is going to be released soon and a tour will follow. Does anybody here know WTF is really going on with VH?

Here's a really good article that sums up everything Van Halen for 2019...

Bottom line... Van Halen doesn't have much motivation to put out any form of music. Ed's apparently dealing with on-going cancer treatments which seems a reasonable cause for not wanting to work. Alex and Wolfgang, who knows... hanging close to the family circle. Although I read Wolf worked on some guys album... can't remember who...

Diamond Dave... Vegas baby! Then some dates opening for Ki$$... Dave feels like working it appears. Whether it's worth attending any of his shows... let your heart and wallet guide you...

Yep that was it... Clint Lowery. His solo album is due to be released January 31st. Closest you'll get to any new Van Halen music anytime soon...

I got an Instantpot for Christmas and it’s everything anybody who’s ever talked to you about it said it was. Takes about 15 minutes to heat then just a few mins - under 25 - to cook just about anything. Buy one now, before the Democrats make them illegal. What were we talking about?

Oh yeah, Van Halen is dead. D E A D. Have been for years. The last tour? I could have bought really cheap tickets the day of the show but didn’t. Why? Cause Dave sucks live. Everybody can say YouTube videos don’t actually convey how performers sound. That’s true. To a point. The bass and highs tend to drown out what’s going on onstage. But yes you can hear what the singer is singing. And...Dave sucked on the last tour and on every single corporate gig he did. Having said that...He did sound good on the Roth shows I listened to. Nowhere near as cringey as his radio show. Im probably gonna go to the Columbia SC show to see KISS one more time. That is, before they start their Vegas Residency, which they will and will justify it as “not being on the road”. Who cares, so long as Gene spits blood and fire and “Ace” shoots fireworks out his ass or guitar. What were we taking about again?

Oh yeah, Van Halen. Who cares. I know I gave a positive review of VH Mach III but if Mikey ain’t back then I’ll pass. I’d rather see Dave doing solo stuff - and why he can’t do it with the original band is beyond me because he’s had YEARS to work out the scheduling and all those guys wanted to do it - so I will probably go see him opening for KISS, and getting absolutely killed if he makes it that long, which he won’t, but yeah. Go Dave.

Oh yeah, Van Halen died in 1985. Just in case anybody missed it.

It probably will be when this freaking site catches up with technology. The time to load is ridiculous. FORD is probably lying on the side of the road asking for help while the site loads

But on the good side - my ex girlfriend is still hot. Cross eyed, a little. But who am I to say? Remember to tip your bartenders and content providers. They all have small but manageable drug issues..

I’ve got one of those too. It’s a fairly large one but just doesn’t hold quite enough. I do like it though.

Maybe I should buy one, that way I could make a pile of all the kitchen appliances I don't use... :)

I take it to work when we have team cookouts. It'll hold a pound of tater tots :D
