"After postponing a handful of dates last week in order for guitarist Eddie Van Halen to undergo tests for an unspecified medical condition, Van Halen is postponing all tour activity until April 19.

Seventeen shows are affected, beginning tomorrow night (March 11) in Charlottesville, Va., and running through April 15 in Baltimore.

According to organizers, Van Halen, who has battled cancer and substance abuse, "is currently under doctors' care" and will "continue medical tests to define a course of treatment." No further details were made available.

Fans are being asked to keep their tickets, which will be honored at makeup dates to be announced.

Van Halen returned to the road last fall with original lead singer David Lee Roth for the first time in 20-plus years. The tour, which features Eddie Van Halen's teenage son Wolfgang on bass, has routinely sold out North American arenas."

I'm getting sick of waiting. If anyone needs tix for the Baltimore show, give me a holler.

If you can afford to hold on to the tickets, it's definitely a show worth seeing.

Getting a refund on my 4 tickets for the Georgia show. Going to use the money to see Tom Petty instead. IF they ever do re-schedule, I will wait until about a week before the concert and see if there are any decent seats available thru Ticketmaster. Not going to any inflated price sites for them. Sad day for me.
Best wishes to Eddie and the whole band.

Your loss. You're making a terrible mistake.
