VAN HALEN in the studio????

[Matt White]

So....I just got around to reading the New Wolf von Halen interview up on the interweb.....


something jumped out at me

He also remains part of Van Halen, which will play three shows during June in Japan and is reported to be working on a new album. “There’s plenty of ideas lying around and some new stuff that we’ve been working on, too,” Van Halen reports. “You never know what’ll happen.”

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO HEAR!!!!

[vandeleur]

That's more like it

[Matt White]

HELL YEAH!!!!

I want Ed, Al & Wolf cookin' up some new stuff....so DAVE can fucking shine!!! ADKOT proves they've still got the fire!

[fraroc]

Hopefully the RS interview with Dave was the kick up the ol' arse (why am I cursing like a British person) that Ed needed!

[VAiN]

If this is even kind of accurate its exciting news!

[DLR Bridge]

You mean a different kind of accurate?

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

[Northern Girl]

My days of rumors and speculation about this band are over. To keep my sanity, everything just goes in one ear and out the other.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Come on folks....

You know as well as I do that "new stuff that we've been working on" could mean like 37 different things....

[Never was]

Plus it is consistent with what Dave said how ADKOT was made and the source of his gripe. Ed and Wolf write and Dave overlays his thing seperately. Considerring how volatile Dave and Ed are together in a studio together I get it from Ed's point of view work with my kid, music is good, he and Dave don't creatively collide due to their different and strong perspectives.
I get Dave's point all great writing teams create their best work a certain way. They did the classics together and often by brute will. Lennon McCarthy still wrote great songs but when they wrote seperatley it wasn't quite the same. Getting that energy going again of collisions can create greatness so I get the atraction but also dramatically increases the risk of a chernoybl meltdown.
Would love to see truly co-written tunes again but it would be hi risk hi reward scenario.

Must be part of that ten albums worth of material or some shit like that.

My Mrs. also has to crack the whip in order to get me to do chores whenever I'm been doing avant-garde piano work for ten hours and spend several more placing mattresses on the wall in order to get that perfect sound. I know how you feel Eddie!

[Angel]

Hmmm...Wolf talking about a solo album sounds interesting too.

[Dr. Love]

Come on folks....

You know as well as I do that "new stuff that we've been working on" could mean like 37 different things....

More like 37 more years before they put out something new

[Guitar Shark]

Come on folks....

You know as well as I do that "new stuff that we've been working on" could mean like 37 different things....

Yep, they've had like 10 albums "in the can" for over a decade now...

Still, it's better than nothing!

Who cares.....look at her sucking on that tit!

[DLR Bridge]

I find it a bit unusual that he is considered a "full fledged member" of Tremonti's band. Not for the obvious "you can't be in two bands" line from his Dad, but I thought he was just filling in for somebody on that tour. Doing multiple projects is not a crime, but sure can't help Van Halen continue to conquer in the way Dave is lobbying them to do.
