just read it at vh1.com

[joe318]

it says sammy and eddie talked and sam is back in, also says that mike helped getting eddie and sammy to talk again, and it says that alex was at the dave and sam show and he said sammy was great and dave was good he said sammy did a great show and the fans seemed to love him.
now remember we all thought there was something up with mike playing with sammy and we thought he would be the one to get ed and sam back together.
hope this is true and we hear something soon, do not know if it is b.s. but just go to vh1 and read for your self.

There is also a thread in the rumor mill about this too, with links to threads in the VH1 message board.

Sammy/Van Halen update

Alex went to see the Sam/Dave show in LA recently. He reportedly met up with Sam backstage and they were all going to get together to write some songs for a few days while the tour is on a break for a few weeks.
Sammy will spend about 1 week with them before relaxing with his family for a couple weeks.
After seeing the show myself, I must say just how impressed I was with Sam's show. He still has it and the crowd loves him. It was a nice blend of solo and VH material, and to see Mike up on stage with him was just a f!#%&*! total thrill.
Dave's show was good, but he has definately lost a couiple steps over the years. His band was good, but I felt like I was at an Atomic Punks show. I would like to see Dave play some of his own material. Which he might do on the second leg. He and his band are working on an album during the break and they might just roadtest some songs on tour.
But as much a Dave fan as I am, Sammy is the one who I think is right for the bands future. He is a better songwriter and now performer. Dave was a better performer in the 80's, but maybe he should stick to small club shows and Vegas.

it something like that but i'm not bs anyone. try this www.vh1.com/artist/boards/main.jhtml/van_halen
see if that works. if not i will write down what it said and post it word for word.

[Eddymon]

I think you are referring to the message boards over there.
Could be true, but its possibly BS.
But it is quite specific, so at this point I give up.

But I will not loose hope.

"Sammy does not hate Eddie & Alex, he just hated what happend in 96' and how it all happend.

here it is.
sammy set to return to van halen.
sammy hagar and eddie van halen finally settled their difference setting up the singers return to the van halen family. sammy as most are aware is currently on tour with fellow ex-halen frontman david lee roth.which is scheduled to be completed in september.
it will be interesting to see if sammys impending return causes more tensions with roth.
sammy is still open to a sam & dave with van halen tour but eddie isn't to thrilled with the idea since he "hates" roth. apparently vh bassist michael anthony helped to get both sammy and eddie talking again. mike was very against reuniting with dave a couple of years ago when dave and vh tried working together and wrote a few songs.
look for the reunited van hagar to formally enter the studio in late fall after smmy and mike fulfill their commitment to do an album with journey guitarist neal schon and drummer dean castronovo. a side band they created this past winter called plante us, but even this project is not set in stone.

this is what was over at vh1, dont know if it is bs but we will soon find out i guess.
