Okay.
The only thing that makes ZERO sense is for WB to re-release Van Hagar material on CD or Blu-Ray when the band that is prepping to tour is with Dave -- not Sambo.
Why promote the band that is NOT touring or recording a new album?
A better thing for WB to do is to release a classic live VH CD/Blu-Ray -- instead of anything related to Van Hagar.
That portion of Andrew's news is BS.
Good to see you bro...hope life is treating you well. The Army could use a continued dose of some VV-power...
As to what makes sense and what doesn't...shit Vin...
Over the past 25 years...has anything this band...or their label done...made any sense at all?
Christ...if you want a definitive list of WHAT NOT TO DO as a label...with a band...this would be it...
Talk about the utter destruction of a cash cow..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."Comment

I see nothing has changed as far as VH goes.
I understand that nothing VH/WB have done has ever made sense but just look back to the 07-08 tour. It was about the original six pack -- not Van Hagar. So a new album and tour with Dave again would/should only be promoted. Not that shitty pop band featuring that poodle-haired fuck.=V V=

I do think the chance of dates in Europe and maybe Australia is plausible this time around as this whole thing is about Eddie and his son so it makes a bit of sense if he shows him a bit of the world. Plus he still hasn't seen much of it sober himself yet.Comment

Releasing the Van Hagar garbage on blu-ray?? That makes no sense at all... even by Ed standards... he'd have to pay out to 2 guys that he's not talking to... never!Originally posted by wiseguyThat shit will welcome you in the morning and pour the milk in your count chocula for ya.Comment

The part that makes the most sense to me is Dave and Edward being a work in progress. I have to believe, if they have indeed been working on a new album and plan on touring in 2011, the album will be done in time for a late spring release to coincide with a tour. However this is Van Halen.Comment

This Just In
According to Melodicrock.com, VAN HALEN's long-awaited new studio album is being produced by Ross Hogarth, who has previously worked with MÖTLEY CRÜE, COAL CHAMBER, FASTER PUSSYCAT and DEVILDRIVER, among others. Hogarth wrote in an early July online posting, "The record I just started ROCKS!!! [It] will be amazing... That is all I will say..."
Music publishing company Warner/Chappell Music announced in August that it had extended its publishing administration contract with guitarist Eddie Van Halen and drummer Alex Van Halen, noting that the band "is currently in the studio recording an album with (singer David Lee) Roth that is due for release in 2011."
Meanwhile, according to Billboard.com, VAN HALEN manager Irving Azoff, who is also the executive chairman of Live Nation, mentioned on two separate conference calls that VAN HALEN was expected to hit the road next year, presumably in support of a new record.
Word of a new VAN HALEN album, the band's first with original vocalist David Lee Roth on the mic since 1983, first began circulating in late June when MelodicRock.com reported from an unnamed source that the project was halfway completed.
VAN HALEN spokesperson Janie Van Halen, Eddie's wife, denied the rumors, telling Rolling Stone, "I don't have any updates at this time."
Eddie himself told Rolling Stone last year that he was working on material for a new record, but was waiting for his hand to heal from surgery and for his son and bassist Wolfgang to graduate from high school.
A new VAN HALEN record would be the band's first full studio effort since 1998's "Van Halen III", which featured Gary Cherone on lead vocals.
VAN HALEN's 2008 reunion tour with Roth grossed more than $93 million and drew nearly one million fans to 74 shows.Comment

Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!Comment

Well, Andrew made his Van Hagar preference obvious years ago, so it's not surprising he would work a Sammy plug in there somehow. After the fiasco of "Upchuck Your Breakfast" and the other two abortions from the Van Hagar Velveetapalooza 2004 compilation, it's hard to believe Warner Brothers would risk money on Van Hagar remasters which are likely to collect dust in the WB/Rhino warehouses.
I remember Andrew wetting his AOR underoos when the Van Hagar reunion happened in 04.=V V=

Well, with morons such as yourself, vaijuju, and basstar66 spamming the place repeatedly with the same information that was posted hours (or in some cases days) before, the task gets old quickly. It isn't the moderator's fault you happen to be too clueless to use the search function, let alone attempt to read the site to see if what you are posting is old news.
