What would attendance be like with Dave in Van Halen?

[VH LINKS SUCKS]

C'mon people what do you guys really think a tour with Dave in Van Halen be like in comparison to Van Hagar, attendance wise?
Sellout with Dave across the board? Stadium shows?
Excuses by Van Hagar fans is ticket prices, music in general for today's audience etc...

No stadiums, unless there was a big time opening act. Sold out arenas.

[Bob_R]

Sold out arenas for sure.

Interesting sig btw VH LINKS SUCKS.

If you won the Megabucks lottery, netted yourself about 84.5 million dollars, would you be happy?

The shows would take, AT THE MOST, an hour to sell out. Duh!

Ditto

Sellouts. Everywhere.
No doubt about it.

Stadium shows in the very big markets (NY, LA, Chicago, Boston, DC).

One and two nights sold out at the 20K sheds and arenas everywhere else.

It would be one of ther biggest reunion tours in rock history if there was a reunion of the original Van Halen.

today I'd even doubt that, because people would know that they hate each other sharing the same stage...and CVH was based on positive energy, fun...the attitude was "hey, we give you a fucking good party, tonight" and we'd know this is not there on stage if they come together again...we'd know that they were seperate dressing rooms, seperate hotels, tour bus...no backstage partys together...they wouldn't talk to each other the whole tour...I don't know if I'd want to see that...

Some talk about attendance, but I think more about audience enjoyment and without a doubt, an Original Flavor VH Reunion show would be outta control.

People getting kicked out everywhere. Catfights, hairpulling, Hara-Kiri invocations - People getting lost, smoke throughout, RPG's, grenades, hottubs in the concessioneer stands - polecats raping penguins, telemarketers and insurance salesmen running for the exits.

Either way, price of a concert Tee-shirt would still be $40.

[SWEET WILLY P]

15 MINUTE SELL OUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Reverberator]

Who gives a fuck about any problems , get Dave back for a world tour with VH before they or we are all fuckin dead .

I won't say a word I won't say a word. (about the current tour) I will not say one word.

I think it would do huge numbers even in a poor concert industry. Especially if they had new material. I don't think people would be turned off because they know they hate each other, I think people would flock to see it because of that reason, it may very well be their last chance. Besides, they hated each other way back when only we never knew it. It's all boils down to one thing: the music.
