  • This week Rock Daily confirmed a Van Halen reunion tour with David Lee Roth. The trek will be officially announced on Monday at a press conference in Los Angeles. Roth, Alex and Eddie Van Halen, and Eddie’s son Wolfgang are expected to be on hand to announce the band’s fifty-city arena tour that’s projected to begin in October.
  • Amy Winehouse was briefly admitted to a London hospital for “exhaustion” yesterday; doctors ordered her to rest, leading to the cancellation of all her upcoming tour dates.
  • Chris Cornell took on MySpace to apologize to fans who believed they were talking to him online, saying “under no circumstances, under any name or address do I or have I ever communicated or corresponded with anyone online or otherwise.”

This tour is a fucking joke.
Eddie is a mess, can`t remember the riffs to most of the classics he wrote.
Dave`s a total ass. He can`t remember the correct lyrics. Call it a day guys!

Dr. Ralph | 8/17/2007, 9:08 pm EST

Everybody wants some…
Wolfie wants some too. Susan you probably won’t meet his high standards once he tours with =vh=. Shit the boy can get his own reality show with Lindsey, Paris, Jessica & Ashley, Niclole whatever… Hey Wolfie do the Olson twins for Ol’ Dr. Ralphy!

Susan | 8/13/2007, 1:06 pm EST

mmmmm As you can see I have another satified customer . Poopface you can come by and eat out my yeast infected vagina and rectum hole any time you want . See Don you`re missing out . And Mike let me know what the clinic said about that rash I gave you.

SUSAN`S A WHORE !! THE ONLY ABUSE SHE HAS TO DEAL WITH IS HER TORN LABIA AND CONSTANT VISITS TO THE FREE CLINIC . I FEEL SORRY FOR ANYONE THAT GOT A STD FROM HER YEAST INFECTED VAGINA.

Face the facts, Roth is bald and wears his dead mother`s wigs!

tbozz | 8/13/2007, 7:29 am EST

I’m a VH fan, but not a fan of the sexist meatheads who align them to the cause. Could those reacting so strongly to the fact that DLR is follically-challenged be a little wide-at-the-waist & thin on top themselves?

Apologies Susan for the abuse you’ve had to endure.

Dr. Ralph | 8/12/2007, 8:05 pm EST

I just hope these fuckers can get along long enough to pull it off. Actually the tension in the band was good for the music, kind of like the Who. Fair Warning was one of my favorites and it just exudes a fuck you attitude… that ladies and gentlemen is Rock and Roll. Take your kids and tell them this is what a god damned guitar sounds like when a virtuoso with balls plays it. And David behave yourself. We love you but without the Frankenstrat behind you you suck.

don | 8/12/2007, 12:23 pm EST

had fun spreading your legs again huh susan ?? remember.. if you can feed em done breed em . going to the clinic does`nt sound like to much fun to me..hahaha i don`t know if dave got a hairpiece or not.that`s unimportant to me since i only care about the music not his personal life. as dave once said.”i heard the news baby all about your disease” have fun sweetie.

Rtt | 8/12/2007, 11:25 am EST

This tour is goin to suck with Roth. He`s lot his voice through years of substance abuse. He wears weiod wigs, that fall off at his concerts. He`s fat, and wrinkled like a prune.
Bring back Sammy and Mike.

Red Rocker`s Revolution!

Dear Susan | 8/12/2007, 4:33 am EST

Had a great time last night. (Don you missed out) Call you soon, Mike

The Atomic Punk | 8/12/2007, 4:08 am EST

Hey Susan | 8/12/2007, 3:46 am EST

Thanks for the fuck of a lifetime! (Sorry, Don. You missed out!) You’re beautiful, babe! Call ya tomorrow, sweetie! Love ya, Mike

Mean streets | 8/11/2007, 4:38 pm EST

Long live Van Halen & all lovers of great guitarists should go check out www.davesharman.com

Susan | 8/11/2007, 12:00 pm EST

Hey Don, i`ve had more fun in one evening with people, than you have every had in your life.
People were saying Dave wore a wig and has now had a hair transplant. Is this true?

don | 8/11/2007, 11:54 am EST

hey susan is it true you had a successful liposuction around you fat ugly body and you`re still fat and ugly ?? hair or no hair david lee roth will always be the original voice for van halen . you can`t change what he did on those classic van halen cd`s . when you play those cd 78-84 dave and the boys will always be in his 20`s and that will never change

Susan | 8/11/2007, 8:52 am EST

Hey,Is the rumour true that Dave`s had a successful hair transplant?

BART | 8/11/2007, 2:02 am EST

Oh yeah and F Ed

B | 8/11/2007, 12:59 am EST

No Mikey no Van Halen. Val do us all a favor and keep the teenager OFF the road.

Jason | 8/10/2007, 9:18 pm EST

All you people crying about no mike need to go to youtube and watch and hear mike early Van Halen songs and then you`ll understand why he was the background singer. He has no personality as a lead vocalist.To have the classic Van halen sound you need dave singing lead.This is it VANHALEN IS BACK

alex g. | 8/10/2007, 6:39 pm EST

the awesome foursome needs anthony to be true–no replacements–jason bonham can’t replace john,keep it original vh!

doug | 8/10/2007, 6:17 pm EST

Won’t be a TRUE reunion without Michael Anthony- his background vocals and harmonies are a HUGE part of the Van Halen sound.Too bad, this is probably the last chance for a real reunion,and with Anthony it could have been a KILLER comeback. This tour won’t be as good without him

rush | 8/10/2007, 10:49 am EST

Saw RUSH this past weekend! Still sounding awesome. Peart is GOD!!!

hagarrrrrrrr | 8/10/2007, 12:25 am EST

david lee ryg fronting the band again ? holeee crap

Lance | 8/9/2007, 11:19 pm EST

Words & Music . Dave & Eddie . That`s all you need .People get old so what ? This the original VAN HALEN .Sure mike`s gone selling hot sause . So what ? Dave`s back and that`s what matters.

neiche | 8/9/2007, 6:29 pm EST

i hope daves hairpiece comes in time
before the tour starts

Evan's mom | 8/9/2007, 5:20 pm EST

i love how everyone is getting so excited about this van halen reunion business. dont you remember what happened last time? or the time before that? or the time before that? i’m just afraid that all you van halen freaks are just gonna blow your collective heads off after this one falls through too.

WHOOO! VAN HALEN RULES!

suckers

Keisha LaRaine | 8/9/2007, 4:03 pm EST

love the idea of a VH reunion but i fear Eddie won’t be up to it healthwise.

lik roper | 8/9/2007, 3:39 pm EST

remind amy winehouse that drinking and touring don’t mix after about the age 25 - drinking even on your day off can lower your resistance enough to allow you to catch a cold from your bass player - for example - who gave it to you through your catering ice…

you can get away with playing drunk if you play one show per week or month (which i plan on doing if/when i get a band together) but drinking and performing everyday just don’t cut it - it’s all about moderation, lots of sleep, healthy food and exercise…

ghostbends | 8/9/2007, 2:42 pm EST

I think the more van halen’s you can put in VH, the beter
yyou y

wetback | 8/9/2007, 1:26 pm EST

what is a vanhalen?

Nikkidoo | 8/9/2007, 1:10 pm EST

Perhaps someone should force Amy Winehouse to eat so she won’t be so “exhausted.”

Ardie | 8/9/2007, 12:54 pm EST

AGAIN, kick in Michael Anthony and kick out Wolfgang, let him have the opening act with his own band (if he has), take a cue from Sting,…
but for a long shot Led Zep reunion, we, the fans can accept Jason since his dad (John Bonham)has long been gone.

vh1 | 8/9/2007, 12:13 pm EST

Dave is one of rock’s greatest frontment ever! no one was cooler, except maybe RP. oh yeahhhh

Grimm | 8/9/2007, 12:08 pm EST

It’s not a reunion without Mike. Close but no cigar.

jj | 8/9/2007, 11:50 am EST

Ha ha. I doubt Chris Cornell even owns a computer.

djbryanflash | 8/9/2007, 11:44 am EST

Oh,hell,no! You think the middle east is in turmoil…Here’s Eddie and Diamond Dave.The search is over the weapons of mass destuction have been found.They couldn’t get along back in the 80’s and now this? The reason they hate each other is because of a certain actress(THAT WE WILL KNOW THE MYSTERY TO ONE DAY AT A TIME)they were both sleeping with so long a go before Jenny Craig.Sorry Wolfgang.I hope Mike comes back.Rock on Van Halen.

don | 8/9/2007, 11:39 am EST
