Van Halen Tour On Hold But Still In The Works

A prospective Van Halen tour with original frontman David Lee Roth has derailed. Sources tell Billboard.com the decision to postpone the outing indefinitely was not due to any internal strife among band members. Insiders close to the situation say a tour is still in the works and will happen, though when is anybody's guess.

The tour, negotiations for which were first tipped here on Jan. 24, will feature Roth, Eddie and Alex Van Halen, and Eddie Van Halen's teenage son Wolfgang on bass. A spokesperson for the Van Halen brothers confirmed the tour in a Feb. 3 press release.

Indeed, wheels were in motion for a 40-date, Live Nation-produced amphitheatre tour to be announced Feb. 20, including venues and on-sale dates.

The Van Halen camp has yet to make any official announcement about the postponement or the reasons behind it.

It happens to me all the time. Thank goodness for the edit feature.


These new threads remind me of the SNL skit with Tom Hanks, "MR. SHORT TERM MEMORY."

Wow! Tony Randall! Oh my god, you broke your leg!........... Wow! Tony Randall!


I also know you were kidding about Lennon being dead. He's not is he? Man, I hope George Harrison isn't next.

The army of "closing/I'm in" wannabies is simply repelling.

You get to see your name in a pretty purple, green or red color. It's quite thrilling I say.

Closing..
