    Van Halen Suit Against Orioles to Proceed

    A lawyer for the rock group Van Halen says a breach-of-contract lawsuit against the Baltimore Orioles will go forward.

    A federal judge last week denied the Orioles' motion for summary judgment. Howard King, who represents Van Halen, says a trial is "imminent."

    The band contends in the suit filed in August 2004 that the Orioles wanted it perform the first-ever concert inside Camden Yards and then backed out of the deal.

    The proposed deal would have paid Van Halen $1.5 million, plus 80 percent of ticket and merchandise sales.

    Van Hagar should be GLAD that the Orioles backed out. All those empty seats would be embarrasing as hell. BTW, the link has a picture of the band with Dave...

      80% of ticket sales would have been what $800.00?

          They did not make enough money on the tour, now they are suing people to make up for it.


          Hell, the Orioles organization did the smart thing...they would have lost their ass....

            I'm with VH on this one! I live in Baltimore and they owner of the Orioles (Peter Angelos) is a complete lawyer douche bag, making all of his money on asbestos cases, and thinking he's King Shit. When the judge rules in favor of VH, part of the retribution should be that Angleos would have to spend an entire day listening to Gayry's greatest hit, going to a gay bar with AVH, and frenching EVH through his blow hole!!!!! What a bunch of faggots!!!!!!

                I live in Baltimore also and Peter Angelos is not well liked by Oriole fans, Van Hagar is not well like either. Thats hilarious that they posted a Dave era pic on the news article. DLR RULES!!!!!!!!!!! Van Halen is Ed, Al, Mike and the Diamond One. It is a good thing this event didn't go down. There would have been alot of empty seats in Camden Yards, welcoming a lethargic copy of a once great band.

                      It doe's look doctored, I guess the author of the news article is a Dave era Van Halen fan. Maybe he knows something we don't?????

                          Peter Angelos? For a second there I thought that was Dave's former manager.
