This is a thought I've had - Would Live8 be the perfect platform for the relaunch of Classic Van Halen? The biggest live platform since Band Aid, with the world watching.

No...the perfect platform was 8 years ago..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."Comment

Me neither (there's no bands that really interest me), but my point is that people all over the world will be watching.
Pink Floyd have reformed for it, and they are the act that most people are looking forward to (and they will undoubtly use this as a platform to relaunch). Now picture this, Classic Van Halen choose to add their name to the line up and with the world media watching they walk on stage and rip it up for say 3 songs.
Even if they only played 3 songs imagine the headlines that would generate.Roth Army MilitiaComment

Milwaukee that day.
I seriously hope Live 8 is an overwhelming success.
I wish they could wipe out third world debt.
Then in a couple of years they could have another one
to help people in the western world pay off Visa, Mastercard,
and American Express. JK:DComment

I'll probably just watch it for Pink Floyd, Velvet Revolver and Brian Wilson. Flick back and forth every 20 minutes.Fast & Bulbous, Got Me?Comment

most are crap, but the London gig is stacked. Floyd will be the headline getter back with Waters, a reunited VH would not be as big as the Floyd returning I dont think...and Im not even a big fan of theirsComment

I'm with Pojo on this. They had all the momemtum in the world in 96'............Comment

Live 8
Roxy Music at Brandenburg Gate, Berlin that would be the deal
some of the other line ups are good I wonder if Brian Ferry
will sing I bet they can still wail they were so sharp back in the
dayComment

From the artist listings I have heard, Pink Floyd is the only thing I would be interested in seeing. Out of ALL the bands.Comment
