Billboard reporting VH signed tour deal

Postby Angiekay » Fri Jan 26, 2007 1:59 am


Things are heating up regarding the Van Halen-David Lee Roth reunion. While it's been rumored for some time, billboard.com is reporting that a deal may have been signed yesterday (Wednesday, January 24th) for a summer tour that would include 40 amphitheatre shows. If it's true, the shows will be the first with Roth since his departure from the band in 1985, though in 1996 he did record two songs with them that were included on the album Best Of, Volume 1.

Meanwhile, guitarist Eddie Van Halen told Rolling Stone, "Everything is up in the air. We don't want to say anything prematurely." He added that Roth is not a deal-breaker for the band's summer tour plans, saying, "There's not just one person on this planet that can sing. We're not waiting on nothing." Drummer Alex Van Halen added, "Whoever the singer is, they'll be surrounded by Van Halens."

The band now includes Eddie's son Wolfgang on bass, and Eddie said, "Wait until you hear this kid play. I pick him up from school every day and we jam. We've got a shredding bass player now that's laying down the law for Alex, so I get to weave in and out."

I'll be as close to the stage as possible. Maybe I'll get some caboose. Maybe you suckers will all be wishing you had gone to see a great rock show!

Call me delusional! :lol:
