Punks: Van Halen to Perform on Jimmy Kimmel on March 30th?

[fryingdutchman]

I'd rather see these guys:


I like the F A T drummer (think the guy in Twisted Sister was his hero?)

I don't want to rip on kids, especially kids who are pretty talented. But I'm noticing a significant absence of lyrics. I guess the microphones are just there for show?

Or did the moms not want to hear little Billy talk about reaching down between his legs and easing the seat back?

I don't think there will be a "panel." I think that Jimmy will introduce them on stage and then they'll perform. Any discussion will probably be Jimmy standing on stage with them.

As for Dave...are you kidding me? Live performance on a top-rated late night talk show? He's going to be completely wired, hopefully not to the point of being borderline insufferable ('96 VMA's, anyone?)

I got that "panel" idea from this:

but who knows with these guys, or these press releases?

For me, this is going to be like going to see a movie adaptation of a novel or a comic character you love and praying, "PLEASE DON'T LET IT SUCK."

Dude....the "thumbs up" crowd are likely casual fans who don't have a clue about what's going on, or online shopping addicts who "like" everything without any sort of critical evaluation. Or it's the record label folks cooking the books....unless you're one of those who believes that all of the reviews you read online are genuine.

LOL...

Oh them books are cooked... as in deep fried... like Donnie and Warf's brains on a Sunday mornin following a weekend bender trolling trannie sites!!

[ZahZoo]

Gets ya all pumped up... trashy construction crap and porta-potties as a stage back-drop!!

The Definitive Live Road to Nowhere Tour kicks off here!!

[DONNIEP]

Wonder if they are gonna hang on to the lighting rig. Sure beats the hell out of their last two tour set ups.

What's the chances that we get Diamond Dave and is fucking awesome.
He ain't playing his A game for money paying peasants he is to cool for that. Live show on a tv show now dave can put himself out for that bad boy.

You heard it first on on wtf tv.

I hope Ralph rushes the stage and steals Dave's mic!

If I read that in my head with a cockney accent it almost makes sense.

Can we get that one more time? Maybe just a little slower...

[vandeleur]

Cockney !!!!!!! Geordie and we never make sense it's the brown ale and lack of sunlight

Don't know about anyone else (or give a fuck what they think), but I'm looking forward to this. Closing down Hollywood Blvd. for this is a classic move.

Won't be able to catch them on Thursday when they do the Ellen DeDonutHumper show (mainly because it comes on at 3 in the afternoon, although it's nice that they're going to do a special Thursday afternoon appearance for all of their unemployed fans.)

Anyhow, I'm actually kind of stoked for tonight. Hopefully the energy going on will hit the band and they pull this off.
