Press release, July 29, 2002, Los Angeles

Legendary rockers, Van Halen, announced today the hiring of a new lead singer. The four year vacancy, last occupied by ex-Extreme vocalist, Gary Cherone, and also held by legendary vocalists David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar, has been filled by (enter your name here). Roth, commenting from his hotel room, while on a co-headlining tour with Hagar, said...well, we don't know what he said because it was in jive, and didn't make any sense at all. Hagar, also from a hotel room on tour offered to buy (your name) a case of Cabo Wabo Tequila. Gary Cherone, now of Tribe of Judah, offered his condolences to (your name). When asked by a reporter at the press conference, what fans could expect from the live show, (your name) replied by naming off the set list for the tour. "Yeah," said (your name) "we're going to play..."

In other words, what would your set list be, if you were the new singer of Van Halen (do anywhere from 20-25 songs, and indicate encoures).

PS, if this has been done to death SORRY damnit! I'm new at this, so give me a break.

If I were the new lead singer for Van Halen I'd risk a charge of forceable confinement, and hold them all at gunpoint at 5150 until they agree to get Dave back in the band [img]graemlins/yell.gif[/img]

Well, before I divulge the setlist, I'd like to let everybody know that we will re-release 1984 without Hot For Teacher, the dumbest rock song ever. In fact, we are going to re-release all our albums with me on vocals, so that Dave, Sammy and Gary won't get any more royalties. Take that! Thanks Sharon Osbourne!

Now that I got that out, here's the setlist. It's gonna contain 50%Roth and 50%Hagar and those Dave cocksuckers who want all Dave and Sammy ass kissers who want all Sammy can go blow Gary Cherone. YEAH! We're gonna take with us some artists to add extra phlava to our songs. If you don't like it, tough beyooootchhhh!
