Any ideas?

There's a story going around that Sobolewski failed to show up at Ma Van Halen's funeral when she passed away. Dave & Sammy both paid their respects. Not sure about Cherone, but he probably would have called or something, because he seems like a decent enough guy. Plus, Gary might have got a pass here, because his total time with the band was about 3 years, and he didn't have a history going back to playing in various parents' basements, like Mike did.

Since it seems that both Ed and Alex have personal issues with Mike, I'd pick this scenario over the "touring with Hagar" thing.

VAN HALEN LOOKING AT 2007 LIVE DATES:
So, the word has started to leak...Van Halen are setting up a tour for 2007 and should everything fall into place it will start sooner rather than later. David Lee Roth, Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen and Wolfgang Van Halen have gotten together and parties involved in all aspects of the Van Halen machine are mobilizing to get this tour set up. I can confirm dates and venues are being penciled in. There isn't much more I can say at this time, but safe to say should everything go to plan (and we all know how things can change with these guys), the band should hit the road for US dates starting in September.

guess mike is out and wolf is in. one would think if september is a start date, tickets would be going on sale very soon, like this month

oh, hey max

He didn't play a note on VDIII, even the sheep know that. Or the three failed Van Hagar songs from 2004.

Even Right Now is suspect.

Ed was accused of playing bass on it by one of the guitar player magazine's interviewers.

The response Ed gave was "Why'd you have to say that?."

(Now if Mike had played on it, wouldn't Ed have just said Mike played on it?)

Far as Van Halen goes, melodiCROCK has gotten it more often wrong than right, and were it to start in September, tickets would be going on sale...um...right about now.

[ThrillsNSpills]

This ties in with the Jim Koplik (concert promoter) thread where he said they're trying to book them at Mohegan sun Casinos.

there is activity

Wolf will be a draw for sure. I think there are more people who are curious about EVH's kid than there are people who give a shit that Mike's gone.

Blasphemy!

Why is that "blasphemy?"

Seriously, when/if this takes off there's going to be a huge curiousity factor there regarding the kid. Also and seriously, outside of the diehards, the casual fan will be going to see David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen. Nobody's going to give a crap about Michael Anthony and this is coming from a diehard fan such as myself. Infact, I think Anthony getting the boot is awesome.

i don't think anthony gettin the boot is awesome...but hey, what can ya do?

I can go see Dave and Edward rip through VH Classics live is what I both can and will do my mimbo.

[JMJ]

if they can fuckin get it done

[ziggysmalls]

I am a linker but I have a feeling I maybe posting here a bit more. I don't understand how it was VH without Dave but its not VH without Mike. Its hypocrisy and I see that more of you share that belief. People over there want to call it VH 4. What the fuck? The same amount of original members are in the band as in Van Hagar yet that was Van Halen?

Anyway I am stoked about this rumor since I never got the chance to see CVH. Regarding Mike, it would be cool if he was there but to be honest I may check his side of the stage twice during a show. The first time to see when he is going to solo so I can piss. The second time to see if he is done.

BTW I heard the same rumor about Mike but I was told it was bullshit because Mike is too great of a human being. Its the only thing that makes sense.
