[Big Troubles]

Uh oh...Now you started something...Shouldn't have asked that question. This thread is never gonna close.

Actually, according to this release, they will be playing DLR era songs:

Somehow I knew they would play Dave era tunes despite what Sammy had said earlier. What? you say that buying a ticket to this is funding the Bush campaign?? Hell give me 4 gold packages then.

The theory behind funding the Bush campaign is that Clear Channel are affiliated with the "Bush Criminal Empire" in some way, and since CC is running the show, buying a Van Hagar ticket is a contribution to Bush. I guess CC grosses 75% of ticket sales. Disclaimer: Not my theory.

This is what's on that site:

The group's set list during the upcoming tour will include the Hagar-era Van Halen hits "Top of the World," "When It's Love," "Why Can't This Be Love," "Right Now," "Dreams," "Best of Both Worlds" and "Love Walks In," as well as the Roth-era cuts "Panama" and "Jump," according to the group's publicist.

Wow, that further convinces me that staying home and not giving them my money is the right decision.

Whoop de doo, I get to hear Eddie's lame-ass cheese solos. Man I wouldn't want to miss that

What a $tupid Van Hagar $ellout $ong $etli$t

You know the more I think about it the more it enrages me.

The whole idea of shelling out a LOT of money to hear among other Van Hagar garbage, "When It's Love" and "Love Walks In." Who the fuck can sit through that?! Perhaps it's only fitting that they play the two songs which in my opinion epitomize Van Hagar, cheese synthesizer trite sellout ballads. They literally are the two Van Hagar songs I hate the most, even more than "Can't Stop Loving You." Wouldn't surprise me if they played that one as well, BTW.

Man am I glad I have internet resources such as this where I know in advance what's going to be played...any shred of interest, any tiny itch to go and see Edward is dashed by reading this. I won't be wondering, "Gee did they play their balls out, did I miss anything." The answer for every one of those Van Hagar shows will be NO.

It's confirmed $lapnut$ fans, the ballads will be played. So what's your defense now? HA! There is none, could it be any clearer this is the fucking $ellout tour to end all $ellout tours.

It goes beyond that, Lou. Sammy himself has given $2000 to Junior's campaign. As for Fear Channel, their connection to the BCE is so close, you might as well call them a branch office. Here's a BCE/Clear Channel flow chart:
