    Van Halen's Opening Band?

    What was the name of the opening band throughout the last tour? Reggae influenced, if I remember correctly. I wouldn't mind snagging an album; I remember thinking that they were pretty good.

      This brings up another thing. Who would be a good band to open for the next tour? I would like to see someone like Sevendust.

        I would really like to see them with a solid / known act as opener. They ALWAYS get some no name. My pick for a possible 2010 tour?

        CHEAP TRICK

        Awesome live, VH fans will know & enjoy the songs, and they won't outdo VH.

        Or, better yet bring Michael Anthony back & let Wolfie & his band open up.

              Lounge Machine's band would fit perfect...

                How about Ace Frehley opening for the mighty Van Halen?

                  I'd like to see a VH/AIC package... I think that would be a solid set of rock & roll...

                    Agreed, I'd actually watch that opening act....

                      Just get Van Halen on stage as long as possible.

                        They have this new thing called Google.
                        Check it out, it's pretty wild.

                            For the most part, those days are long gone, feel fortunate they're playing two hours...

                            There are exceptions though....

                            For Rush's 30th anniversary tour, they started at 7PM, played until about 9PM, took about a 20 minute break (with animated video), then played until 11PM....

                            Would VH attempt to do that ?? Doubtful....

                              Ok, then have topless chicks making out on stage before =VH= fires things up. If you want to have some band up there playing while the girls are busy I'm ok with that.
