    In the old days, the albums didn't compare to the live experience. As good as VH albums were, the live shows were mucho better. Oh well, guess nosuchluck is too young to understand.

      they've never been to my part of the world, so i couldn't give two shits about the tour...

      and i'm not gonna travel across the world to see them play - you've got to be kidding yourselves if you think the live shows are gonna be the same. the magic is not gonna be there - Ed's sustainer is.

          I would have also gone to see the KING drugged up and fat on his last concert aug 1977 if I had the chance...

          I want to see these fuckers on a stage together for one (last) time...I don't give a shit if the concert sucks...who cares...I just want to be THERE!

              Ahh! But the big difference is you're referring to REAL (or at least DLR real) Van Halen, not Van Hagar.

              Forgiveness imminent.

                That only leaves Dave.

                  There is no mention of "The Other Half" on Hagar's website anymore regarding any upcoming shows. Let's hope Mike ditched that shit so he could begin rebuilding something with Ed.

                    Hell, I've got no problem with Mike. If he wants to play with Sammy, that's his business. People here were screaming for a freakin' Eat 'em and Smile band reunion, and Vai left Dave to play with David Coverdale. That's just as bad.

                    A reunion would not be right unless Mike is there. Hot sauce or not he was part of the equation. If all the gears aren't there, then the motor won't run right.

                      I'll second that hope.

                        The last time Andrew changed his banner like that, he was posting that the Van Hagar reunion WOULD happen. He's still saying this one is "likely". I think it will remain "likely" until they walk off the stage from the first show.

                        I just don't get as excited about these rumors anymore, but deep down I think they all know they have to do it. Like Dave said, it's the only way they can all move on musically and have it accepted.


                        But with the low numbers on the 2004 shows, (and some people considered that a "real reunion" ), you can bet promoters know they'll have a hard time selling $100+ tickets without the original 4.

                        I think Ed's mostly mad at Mike for calling him out on the tour about playing so drunk and sloppy. But it's no different than Dave telling the world he thinks Ed's meth addictions have messed him up. If Ed can get over that, he can get over Mike calling him a drunk.

                        After the low ticket sales last time, Mike actually might have an upper hand in negotiations.

                          For what it's worth my wife just heard about the reunion on a rock FM station in Charlotte, NC. Looks like this thing is really picking up steam!

                            WBLM in Portland, Maine is also reporting a CVH tour in 07...
                            Maybe this is what a heroine addict feels like after getting a long awaited fix, shooting up in the corner of some abandoned building and just not giving a fuck about what the rest of the world thinks...TATTOO"

                              It ain't Classic Van Halen without Michael Anthony.

                                What's gonna be funny about this tour is that Eddie and Dave will hang out backstage more often together than they ever had before!!

                                Because all these Porn Stars will be around -- Dave will be at home with them.

                                :D
