OH FFS: Van Halen Australian Tour 2013 Looks Likely (With BOTH Singers ?!)

[jhale667]

I still don't understand why people hate on Mike. Yeah, he sided with that rediculous excuse for a rock and roll front man....but what was the guy supposed to do....sit on his ass, not make music, and align himself with a highly dysfuntional shell of a band while being dealt a newly reworked shitty contract?

I don't hate the dude at all...and his tech, Kevin Dugan is beyond cool. But he's fine where he is now, and let's not overlook the fact that the VH rhythm section has NEVER sounded this cool. Not a bag on the dude, Wolf just smokes that much. So unless Wolf is suddenly like "I'm bored, I wanna go play with dudes my own age" MA coming back is completely unnecessary.

Not to mention probably still kinda AWKWARD after their photoshopping him off the 6-pack covers...

They could play 2 nights in each city of the tour. One show with Dave, and the other with Sammy.

Eddie would be happily rolling in the dough, and Dave and Sam will try to outdo each other, with Dave ultimaely kicking Sammy's ass like last time.

The unprecedented type of tour would draw larger crowds all over and then everyone can see that Classic Van Halen is the ONLY Van Halen that matters.

In 1984 Van Halen had a class road management team and road crew. It didn't matter if you were just a day hire they treated you like part of the team. Dugan was bass tech and on the road management team that year.

My lone beef with Mike is the forward he wrote to Sam's book. Before he did that, I thought maybe, if he wrote a book, that my be something. His forward is just a mini version of Sam's book. He even works in a half assed apology to Sam for how he sided with Ed and Al in '96.

That whole "If Sam says it happened, it did" passage really made me grind my teeth. Fine, you got the bass player's job in Chickensheet. No need to grovel, just do your job well, and you'll be OK. Then again, that's what he did in VH, and look how that worked out. So I guess it's understandable why we get these "More ice cubes for your drink, Mr. Hagar?" types of moments.

Nope...if they do this, I'm done...

I've seen a David Lee Roth fronted Van Halen 10 times live...

I've got a new David Lee Roth fronted kick-ass Van Halen album...

If it comes to happen with both singers...They'll never see another dime from me...

Fuck....Now I want Chickenfeces back......

If they have anything to do with that fuckhead Spambot, that is it for me.

Hey, I got ADKOT, and got to see them live with Dave again. I am fine with that.

If they want to lose hundreds of thousands of fans by sucking Spambot's peepee again, hey that is their decision.

But I do not see it happening.

They are fine with Dave.

Why the fuck would they want to go backwards?

Are these rumors rampant everywhere or just here? Just wondering what it's gonna take to get an official response from someone?

[Nickdfresh]

It's got what it takes....

So tell me why can't this be love!

That's not Sammy Hagar (tits are too small!)...

[NIN1211]

[NIN1211]

I saw the rumor from two different sources including the one posted by VA. Not exactly rampant. Probably a load of crap.

With Mike I think it's a case of, "whichever way the wind blows."
