    Have You Figured It Out Yet?

    There's no fall tour. Whomever "leaked" this --well, it's just another cynical and possibly self-defeating means to keep the Van Halen name in the press...

    Maybe it was Janie. Maybe it was someone in management. But it's looking pretty far fetched at this point.

    And if Van Wolfgang do play this year, it won't be a "tour," but a few small venues and appearances to tune-up and to generate buzz...

    -And-

    It's funny that the last real "new" Van Halen-related news we've heard was from the Wolf's mouth: that he was "too young" and had no intention to play with dad, uncle Al and their friend Dave.

    We'll see...

    I have to disagree. I don't think anyone in the VH camp is stupid enough to continually float tours to keep the band's name out there. That's the last publicity they need. And VH doesn't just change their website to say something new on a whim. If they didn't think there was a need for a newsletter, Brad wouldn't have been given persmission to post that.

    And as many times as it's been said that Dave's never, ever coming back, it's hard to hold any of them to what they said.

    "Things can and do change on a dime" Any long time poster remembers that quote.

        Truthfully,
        I am simply happy Ed got a couple weeks of detox and finally
        broke down and did something positive towards a better future as in
        some much needed dental work.

        (edit :I do know that Ed was in Rehab if i can trust a thousand different media info slutz.If not, he did have some dental work and got a hair cut .He can afford those two things, rehab is another thing
        that costs alot of money .lol)

        I will get excited when the -Band- stands up together and sais, "We Need This Tour", this album, this chance to play together again.Fuk a Fan.

        Even if they do it in secret and never do a thing publicly.

        The only thing I can count on so far and hopefully into the future is that Dave has put out some great tunes w/o VH and maybe he will drop some more music on us/me.

        Vh with Dave was great

        Vh without Dave is nuttin for me

        Dave's music is what i like, first, last and that, is who I am a fan of.

            Of course it's for the cash. That's not necessarily so bad.

            I got up and went to work this morning. I did it for the cash.

            How about you?

                no doubt, why the hell would anyone have a problem with them getting fat accounts.

                        Don't fool yourself into thinking it wasn't about the 'cash' when VH were playing clubs up until the point they were selling out every venue on the map by '84.

                        Making lots of dough has ALWAYS been a factor.

                          It is about the music first to real quality writing and arranging, but I know everyone has heard this but i cannot remember the exact line, it goes something like this.

                          John Lennon to Paul McCartney in reference to the finalizing of one of the most beautiful song ever written, the finishing touches on Pauls Let It Be.

                          "Let's go write me a pool."

                          Sorry if I am way off but this was what I heard ..?

                          To do it solely for the money would look alot like the 2004 VH tour.

                            Does anyone have the total sales numbers for the DLR Solo albums including the The Best Of?

                            Also, it is called the music biz for a reason. The only thing I hated was the Pepsi commercial with Right Now and they used You Really Got Me for the car commercial although this was not an original song. I think that commercial came in 96.
