Notes about this new tour

[wiso327]

All I can say is that here in Puerto Rico, the two biggest promoters of this kind of events on the island had just announce that they got Van Halen for a February 2008 date ....
So this means that they're planning another leg for the next year!!!

This is what I've been saying all along..... they're saving the places that are still warm after the first of the year, working their way into the Southern Hemisphere where it's summer.

From PR, they'll probably head to South America for a few dates, and maybe then our Aussie friends will get a chance to see the real thing?

First off, it's an amazing dream come true to see these guys up there. However, after seeing them in Charlotte, I have a few things that I noted.

I also happen to believe that it has all been set to be ready incase the whole thing implodes. Dave & Ed don't get along, 25 dates is easily finished with a handshake.

He's not 100% himself, but at the same time, he's doing his thing. Could it be he has matured since that last fiasco in 96? Or perhaps the VH boys sat down with him and told him exactly what they didn't want on stage? If that's so, we see a much more mature Dave making things work. His onstage antics are as always, kick ass!! However, he even says in the beginning "I'm not gonna BS you around"

Question: Why is Dave actually singing every single word of the songs?

Another thing that I'm sure the VH boys put as a MUST DO. I don't blame them and it actually is a good thing. Dave sings his ass off and prooves that he can do it (despite all the shit the VH bros said back in the day).

I think they are taking "baby steps" in the process. Hopefully things will work out great as they appear and more shows will be added.


Again, I don't want to critisize this tour because I think it is the greatest thing since the Beatles reunited for a couple of songs back in 96. This is the best kept secret. It's a FANTASTIC show and a real treat for us that have kept the faith since 84. I want to see them again and will spend however much money needs to be spent to see them again!!!!

Yes, that's another point, no interviews!! WHY?

I tried to get an interview through my station, even mentioning that I'd be travelling over 2500 miles to see the show (hoping maybe that'd get me some points), but got a response of; "Sorry, David is not doing any interviews." I had no problems with that, and thought it was f**king cool that they actually got back in touch with me about it!

I'd say the reason for no interviews is so nothing can be mis-quoted or taken out of context. The 'press' are fuckt up, bottom line. Why take a chance on someone else screwing with this?

I'm only pissed I got f**kt outta tickets for the Charlotte show, but Auburn Hills is now only thirteen days away... and I'm super extatic!!

Amen,
