Exclusive: Van Halen Reuniting With Roth For Tour

Sources tell Billboard.com a contract could be signed as soon as today for Live Nation to produce a 40-date amphitheatre tour by Van Halen this summer, with original frontman David Lee Roth back in the fold for the first time in more than 20 years.

As previously reported, guitarist Eddie Van Halen's 15-year-old son Wolfgang has stepped in for original bassist Michael Anthony in the new incarnation of the group, which also features drummer Alex Van Halen.

Van Halen last toured in 2004 with vocalist Sammy Hagar, grossing nearly $40 million, according to Billboard Boxscore. Hagar refused to collaborate further with Eddie and Alex Van Halen after the tour's completion ("I don't get along with Eddie anymore, and that's all there is to it," he told Billboard.com in August 2005), although he has consistently played live with Anthony in recent years. The warring factions may wind up meeting in public in March when Van Halen is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

"I see it absolutely as an inevitability," Roth told Billboard.com last May of a potential reunion with his ex-bandmates. "To me, it's not rocket surgery. It's very simple to put together. And as far as hurt feelings and water under the dam, like what's-her-name says to what's-her-name at the end of the movie 'Chicago' -- 'So what? It's showbiz!' So I definitely see it happening."

Hagar recently told Billboard.com he was concerned Eddie Van Halen was asking too much of his son to have him join the band and promptly perform in front of thousands of people every night.

"That's a lot of pressure for Wolfie. Just 'cause he's Eddie's son doesn't mean he can go out and play in arenas and perform and entertain an audience for two hours," he said. "I would love to see Eddie and Alex get behind Wolfie, with a kid of his age singing, and produce the record for him and help him launch a career. I'd rather see it go that way than come out and say 'Wolfie's the bass player in Van Halen and maybe singing, too.' Van Halen's got way too much history to have that put on him."

Finally something credible. Tell me though, with Dave once again being the whole fucking show, why does the article quote the fat fuck spam? Who gives a fuck what Spam thinks, yeah Wolfboy maybe in over his head, but why not get Dave's opinion. No one gives a shit what fuck face spam thinks.

If this really pans out -- then Wolf must be good enough for promoters to even go close to an idea of having Ed's son play bass on stage with the band.

The meal ticket, once again though, is Dave and Eddie.

I think so, not because they care about the fans, but because the money will be good.

Yippy, Brad. Giving the fans the "scoop".

If dickhead really served the fans, he would just tell the fans what the brothers say about it now. But no, gotta sell magazines.

Brad's as useless as a toilet at the bottom of a lake.
