    It was two years ago today....

    2007
    Van Halen holds press conference announcing plans for a reunion with David Lee Roth and a tour that will commence Sept. 27, 2007 in Charlotte, NC.

    Of course, hindsight is 20/20.....

    What were your thoughts when you first saw Dave and Ed on that platform together for the 1st time in seemingly 53 years ??

    There were only 25 dates originally announced for the tour.... Did you think they would eventually extend the tour, or did some of you think they wouldn't make it to #25 ??

      I was stoked but said WTF, Wolfie!??? I thought it could blow up any minute. hearing the first night's "I'm the One" was a rush. glad I saw 2 shows.

                  First was vindication. To all the people who had given me shit saying they would never play together again. "SEE, I TOLD YA SO!" Was a little taken back at how old Ed looked, but he looks better now. Dave was great and talked a lot. Really had control of the whole thing. Was nice to see him as the front man.

                  But a little bit of wariness. Until they played the show I had tickets too it wasn't real.

                          I don't think it would have happened if he couldn't play with Wolfie.

                                  "How in hell did they get DLR to do this?" & "Who's calling the shots?"
                                  Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                                      I had flashbacks of 1996 all over again.

                                      I was 50% skeptical that it would actually launch and sustain itself.

                                              i thought "it's gonna be an expensive couple of months." :D

                                              ended up road-tripping three shows in addition to the one i saw in Cleveland.
