    Shameless VHagar Plug

    Can you believe that people are being asked to do this?? If the songs held up, they'd automatically get high rotation - and without the fan bombardment... see below:

    *******************************************

    REQUEST "UP FOR BREAKFAST" ON YOUR LOCAL STATIONS

    Put some cream in your coffee and butter up those biscuits... "Up For Breakfast" is the latest Van Halen single to hit radio, and we need YOUR help in getting some spins on your local stations. Call your local DJs (you know, the ones who still play some real ROCK music) and tell them you want to hear this awesome song!

    IMPORTANT: Don't bombard the DJs -- just one or two calls a day will do the trick. And DON'T say you're with the VH team. If they ask, just tell them you're a hardcore fan who loves the new song!

      Yes it's more like an American / Australian Idol plug, not one for an almost 30 year band..

      Sad days indeed...

                    is that really true...what a shame...more than that...my former piano player has a band here and he asks friends via mail to vote for his single to make it into the local-radio charts and that's ok...I didn't realize that VH has already reached that standard...

                      Same in South Aussie Panamark.

                      Not heard one single reference to the Van Hagar reunion on radio. The only local media I've seen on this was a couple of pars in a street magazine called 'Rip it Up' back in March. Just a very short piece announcing the reunion in which the writer said although Sammy Hagar is better than Gary Cherone it will never be the real VH without David Lee Roth. Seen nothing else!

                      This reunion has had NO impact Down Under. Unlike the Kiss reunion which recieved substantial press here while they were touring the US.

                        name of the game these days...name me a current band that doesnt have the mailing list asking for fans to request the songs. the way they worded it is rediculous though
