Since a reunion seems to be pretty much out of the question, how about VH doing open auditions for a new singer? You know theres gotta be some corn-fed junior college music major in Iowa or Wyoming with a set of pipes and the attitude that would work for VH. It would greatly improve their current PR rut because they would be giving the average Joe a shot at the big time. Let's face it VH is never going to be the same. Sure a Dave reunion would have been great, but a semi-well known replacement like Coverdale or Bach would just pour more salt in the wounds. Go with a no name and see what happens. You can't please everyone so what the hell?
Please forgive me if this is rehash.

How about Chris Cornell. Since that RATM thing is done. Hmmmm. But then agin, I can't see him doing any oldschool tunes either.

Cornell would be about the only name player I would like to see sing with VH if they go with another singer. Otherwise, the unknown scenario would be cool, as there have to be a handful of bad ass singers out there who could make some great tunes with VH, although I don't know how cool it would be to pull a Limp Bizkit and go town to town trying people out. Nonetheless, I would go and give them 30 seconds of everything I had, just for shits and grins and to say I tried it. Maybe set up some kind of deal where people can send in an audition tape of themselves singing a few different VH songs, and go from there, that might be cool.

They should hire Ralph Saenz. Then next year they can surprise us all by touring with Dave on a "3/4ths of Van Halen - 1/4th of Van Halen" tour. Fans love confusion.

I still remember practicing the intro to FA. I find the intro really moody and melancholic. Quite unusual for VH. The solo was a bit too weird to me to play though. There were like three guitars...
