Van Halen "Reunion" comments from others

THIS SUCKS!

Reunion Comments from Others Thread, eh?

I have another comment. One week of 2007 is gone already and there is nothing but rumor about a DLR VH reunion. Where's the real news?!

A little update (and I mean little) on the 2007 tour - things are very much in motion, moving into the next gear I'm told, with David Lee Roth absolutely the vocalist that will join Ed, Alex and Wolfgang.

I heard the DJ on a local station, after playing 'Beutiful Girls', that Roth was going to tour with Ed and Alex this summer, and that Wolfgang was going to be their bass player. He said they were pissed at Anthony for touring with Sammy.

Take it for what you will, but he must read Melodicrock too.

They played JUMP on Hereward FM in the UK and said that VH were back together doing the HOF and are touring this summer (No mention of UK though)

Hearing the buzz about it on the radio here in the D.C. area, but nothing substantial has been said publicly.

Is there no way to make this a real Van Halen reunion, even up to the last minute, or is Mikey surely gone?

Well, Sammy's supposedly taking this year off. Read into it what you will.

only die-hards give a fuck about the friggin' bassplayer (I say fuck the guy just cos of his relationship with Hagar but that's just me) cos it's David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen that will sell the tickets.

This die hard will not buy in without mike on board.I'll explain why;
1)I dunno if it's the brothers or just Ed,but seems like all the problems begin with him.He's become a total control freak-won't allow anyone in the band to say or do anything w/out his consent.Present situation being how it is w/Mike,-Fuck,Who can blame a guy for wanting to jam after sitting by his phone for years.Seems like a 'you're- just -the- bass -player,do- what- we- say-I'll- call- you- in a few- years- IF- I- decide- to- come- out- of- my- bunker'mentality.
Didn't that sort of thing happen with Dave in 85?
2)Maybe,just maybe,Dave is keeping quiet b/c he wants a reunion to happen,but doesn't want to be used for a "Here's Wolfie" tour.After '96 who can blame him."Fool me once..."
3)RRHoF is Van Halen.Period.Not 2 brothers,2 or 3 singers and a so-called prodigy.
4)If Ed an Alex want to use Wolfie to tour with as a side project,I hope Dave says 'NO',cause it's not Van Halen.Even if the kid kicks ass on bass,they'll need backup doo-wop ers.I dont wanna see it look like Sly and the Family Stone up there.
I feel sorry for you's that never saw them prior to 1984.Thank God for my bootlegs and Youtube.
Hour!

found this article online @ realnewyorkersknow.com...this guy gets it...

(and he got the pic from our gallery...is this anyone here??? Chester in NY...lol...)

look for fifth article down called "Diamond Dave Returns to Van Halen Throne"

article

Chester K pronounces: "Anyone who knows anything about rock understands the power of David Lee Roth. I present you these two simple equations:

VH w/ DLR = Greatest Hard Rock Band Ever
VH w/out DLR = Lamest Hard Rock Band Ever"
