    If this is true I am stoked. Plus this hype will inform more people that there is a new album and sales will pick up some.

        ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — Sammy Hagar says he's not surprised the Van Halen tour with David Lee Roth seems to be crumbling.

        He's only surprised it took this long. The band postponed dozens of concerts that had been scheduled for this summer, without giving a reason.

        But Hagar, who had replaced Roth in the band and fronted Van Halen for more than a decade, thinks he knows why.

        He says brothers Eddie and Alex Van Halen are hard to get along with. If they weren't, Hagar says, he'd still be in the band.

        Hagar made the comments in response to a question from The Associated Press on Thursday in Atlantic City, where he donated $10,000 to a church food pantry before a concert with his current band, Chickenfoot.

        What a fuckin' tool. The only reason he talks this way is because he's jealous that VH is out there tearing shit up, while he's busy sitting on the toilet wiping his ass with his stupid ass book. Roth On!

              I agree, plus if you can catch multiples spread out, the set might be different...I'm starting to think this all might be a really great thing!

                  I'm hoping I can drive my new Scion FR-S to the VH show that has been postponed... seriously - I'm holding out hope for this tour to stay together. Shit, I'm holding out hope for this band to stay together!!!!!!!!!

                        I really really hope we get some great video of the rest of the shows.

                          I got 3 possibilities of why the shows are postponed.


                          1. VH is getting screwed on the payments for the last 31 shows - not the same arrangement as the rest of the tour.

                          2. EVH is feeling alot better. He is cancer free, he is getting stronger from not drinking and smoking. When he was sick, he grabbed on to old friends to comfort him. Now, that he is not dying, he is telling Dave to get fucked.

                          3. Dave has had enough of the leash around his neck. Headset mike? toe-tapping and finger snapping? Shit eating grin? Short hair? Fuck u VH brothers.


                          Just a few guesses, feel free to attack me, personally, like u normally do.

                            .......let me look on their official website.

                            I could play "Stairway To Heaven" when I was 12. Jimmy Page didn't actually write it until he was 22. I think that says quite a lot.

                              None of us have any idea, but a good a guess as any could be that they are re-configuring the live show to be more of a traditional Van Halen show?

                              I loved the shows I saw, but I wonder if they took some of the recent not-so-glowing (but asinine) reviews and lesser attendance in smaller markets to heart?

                              Will we see explosions, a more involved stage, and encores in the second leg? Maybe

                                You don't just dump $30-50 million in tour contracts so casually because "we're tired and burnt out"... If that were the case Azoff and his Front Line Mgmt as well as Live Nation will get taken to the cleaners... Got to be something more substantial...

                                Well, old people do get tired. You should know!
