This is a strange feeling

[Panamark]

I was waiting for the "Torch" issue to come back again....

So, fella's Im not sure ??

Is it a Torch for Roth reuniting with Van Halen,
or is it a Torch for Classic Van Halen lineup ???

Its a tough question...

Heres the definition under the Torch on our front page

"To be lit when the VH Reunion announcement is made.
Of course this is a "Dave Only" torch"

You could argue it both ways....

MAN....................

Brownsound, I agree 100% But, maybe it's not one last time.

It's Van Halen. Dave is coming back after 22 years. I would call that a reunion. What's to debate?

Oh, its gonna happen sooner or later,no doubt. Old Ed has backed himself in a fuckin' corner with us fans. After all the years of bullshit he knows that whether he likes it or not, that's the only way its gonna fly with the people. The masses have spoken and the lush knows who's his daddy. Dave wants to be on board and a sober Ed surely isn't that fuckin' block headed.

Yep, it's going to happen, if not next week then soon enough. To me, it's just a matter of how long it will last and will they live up to the legacy or kick said legacy square in the nuts. I fear the mighty VH should maybe "be wearing a cup".........................then again they just might go a long way towards righting all the wrongs. Laying down some new (killer) tunes for us to spin on the way to the show is something I'd much rather see personally.. Then again, I am talking about Van Halen. Never mind.

I'll be honest, I've ridden this rollercoaster too many times to be super excited. '96 I was ecstatic, '99 when Cherone was let go I was fired up, earlier this year I was happy, and now I'm just kind of here. Don't get me wrong, I'm going to go see them, but a lot of the magic is gone. These motherfuckers better BRING IT when they go out on stage.

Agree. Somehow I think this reunion tour is more of a necessity for Eddie & Alex than it is for Dave (which is why the sisters are doing it). Dave has been very busy until this bullshit. Touring, recording, radio, etc... Without a reunion, Dave will still be Dave. Without a reunion, Eddie & Alex will fade away into oblivion. Christ, Hagar won't even play with them again. Don't be mislead...Eddie & Alex need this, not Dave. He's just going along for the ride.

I guess when you are a fucking idiot - its hard to see in anything but black and white.

And there was no weak link in Classic Van Halen.

Taking everything into account, I tend to agreee with you,
*BUT* the Mike factor is a strong one.
I can understand why some people disagree that its
a full reunion.. Its definately a reunion of Dave and
the Van Halens.. No mother fucking doubts !

"To be lit when the VH Reunion announcement is made.

Sarge wrote that, this is Sarge's site. It was my idea,
but he worded it. Reading the above, Im more inclined
to think the new lineup qualifies for a Torch Lighting !!

I have to admit, this is such a weird feeling....

It appears that the announcement we've all been waiting for is imminent...

Could it be that these fuckers are finally going to do it ??

B

Weird feeling is right. Could it be? Could it really be? Oh, I cannot tell you how much I want to see it come true. Wish Bass Player was in on it. No shit, I really think this whole thing is so fucked up it's beyond reality. I think I might just be dreaming this whole crazy thing. A reunion at last! Well, kind of.


*Van Halen is:

MA AVH DLR EVH

There is no substitute and there can be only one!

If Van Halen takes the stage and makes their way to Nissan Pavilion, you local Rothtards need to know how to get to our place. There's going to be a party, bitches!

I'm an idiot because my opinion differs from yours? Grow up.

[Ellyllions]

Feeling?
Feeling skeptical that they'll hold it together.
Feeling worried that they'll make fools of themselves by phoning in too many performances due to ego, arrogance, and turmoil.

But most of all, feeling disappointed because I know these ticket prices are going to be outrageous for a show that might include both of the aforementioned thoughts.

No. You are an idiot because you don't use your brain and are probably uneducated. Grow a dick.

I'm not getting into a pissing match with you if that's what you're looking for. You said I'm an idiot because I think the torch should be lit. Half the people on this site feel the same way. I wish Mike was in, but he's not, but I'm still excited about the reunion. That is all.

[Little Lamont]

Says plain as day it's a "Dave only" torch.

I said you were an idiot primarily because you said there is nothing to debate, not because you said you think the torch should be lit, secondarily based on all your other posts. By your own admission (now) you state "half" the site feels the same way...well...what about the rest of us? Obviously you don't give a shit.

So be excited as you want about this half-ass 3/4ths "reunion" with a 16 year old kid taking over the duties of one of the original members that has a lot more to do with the Classic Van Halen sound and feel than you apparently want to give credit. Spend all your money. Fuck if I care. Be a good little automiton.

Ahhhhhhh Yesssssssssss.......

Tha Flame.

How about this .....Light that Sukk-uh..

Light it with a -Blue Flame- cause this show is -ON- with Dave and VH,
three of them .....Dave with the VH, is the gig.

Blue Flame cause this will be Cool.

Green Flame for Go then to Red Flame... Hott! If Bassplayer ever shows up.

Let's give them the Flame of thanks, but let MA know we know the CVH
line up.

Even if MA is on the endless void of Cheddarville,lost in the hills of Spam.

I guess it should be lit after the press conference,

maybe after the tickets go on sale,

maybe after they take the stage.

Light that Torch after the tour is over.Safest bet.
