I loved this tour and everything.. Wolff is pretty good for his age.. But it isnt a true reunion without M.A. Its like a Beatles reunion without Paul...
saw them with sammy the last time they played in england.even if they decide to tour in europe again, i'll still only be watching 75% of the classic (and best) lineup. a bit of a pisser really!!!
Yo man ppl got to wake up and smell the real deal... David is just better than Sammy in that band. Name a song where Sammy had much sucess (in Van Halen) as Jump or Hot For Teacher. The band should be just the four originals. Period
this tour was awesome, i thought for not playing in years they sounded great. hope the rumours about a new album is true and talk about another tour for 2010.
this is sad to ban these cartoons theres a lot of history future generations are missing out on how does this insult anybody?? i say put them back on tv better than that crap they show now a days
I was gonna go to Philly and see em in October, but I didn't. I read reviews and watched videos and they were ALOT better after the whole cancer thing.
Yeah but the common misconception of the fans is that this is a "reunion" tour - to Van Halen - its not - David Lee Roth even says in the press conference - this is not a reunion tour - its a new band - that's how they see it - don't get me wrong I'd love to see them together with Michael Anthony too - but this is how Van Halen sees the band - just keeping my fingers crossed for a new album!!! VH forever!
Yeah, but Ed didn't even want Mike on the '04 tour which was why he was soo pissed. Also why Wolfgang sometimes played onstage with him. Do you get it? Ed just wants to be on stage with Wolfy cuz this is probably his last chance to. Sad but true.
It just doesn't seem right after all these ups and downs-Finally! They put aside all of the bullshit differences to reunite and due to other indifferences Michael Anthony is not involved. In my estimation,it's not a reunion.Ilove VH forever,but this is just a tour it should be the original 4-bury the hatchet and move on!Man look how much time was wasted fighting already-More than music was made.
hi all...it's the best reunion tour since 20 years ago for sure and even if it's only for some bucks,well doesn't matter...david's thinking about his old days ahead...bye
I saw em with Sammy is 04 in Toronto and I was very dissapointed, I saw in Minneapolis on this tour and I loved IT!!!!!! can't wait for new tour/album
Fuck I wish this commercial showed on TV around here. But anyway I SAW THEM IN PORTLAND and IT WAS AMAZING. Don't miss this Wolfgang is great I mean of course I miss Mikey but this show is the best I have ever benn to and when you are actually there it is a rush. You will Remmeber it forever.
FUck Eddie. True oldschool VH fans like me want nothing to do with this crap. Dave is great, but to dis Michael and Sammy? Fuck that. Interesting how the only members at the HOF induction were Sammy and Michael. Eddie is and always has been, a whiny little bitch
Yeah but how can they just kick Anthony out of the band without even telling him and replace him with some sixteen year old who can't sing and is ok at bass playing?
Anthony didnt want to be in the band with Diamond Dave. He's too close to Sammy. Anyway, I saw them on Tuesday and Wolfie's bass playing and vocals are just as good as Anthony's.
He found out he wasn't playing in the "reunion" the same way we did - in the newspapers and on the tube - and the others didn't even tell him in person. That's just plain sad.
No one ever mentions how similar Van Halen and black Sabbath are in their history. Ozzy and Roth being the original singers then being kicked out. Dio and hagar come in. Most will agree Dio and Hagar can outsing Ozzy and Roth, But 95 percent of fans would rather see Sabbath with Ozzy and VH with Roth, because the performances are better and thats how we remember them. sorry for ranting just something i noticed.
ive never seen this on tv lol... anyway, i got tickets for oct 1st which is 6 days from now. i seriously cant wait ive been a fan of van halen for so long and i can play so many of their songs on guitar. eds my idol!
I appreciate the fact that the band does not call this a reunion because it isn't. They are a new band sort of with wolf on bass. All I know is having the kid in the band has brought Ed and Al out of hiding and excited to be playing classic halen. Wolf is a big part of the reason this tour is happening with Roth. These guys have been reheasing for months, they would not throw wolf out there is he could not handle it. I can't wait for 2007 concert footage to show up on you tube
I was 19 when the real VH broke, music was never the same even though I and many fell back on thrash, grunge or punk, but dayam, Roth keeps defying gravity.
Did the Sammy tours cause they were there. Always felt odd without Dave, but they were good shows. This is a dream come true. Enjoy the ride. Mike could be back someday. Who can say no? never?...be real.
You will not be disappointed! Dave sounds great and that Wolfgang sure can play and sing great. I wish they had a tour program for sale in the merchandise area but that may come later as they collect more photos from the tour.
This promo sent chills up & down my spine....HALEN IS BACK OH FUCK YEAH! The original Van Halen is going out on tour and it's gonna kick all our asses!!! This is the kind of excitement that grows hair on your chest and makes womens' panties moist! Cant wait to see them this fall.........LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!!!!!!!
just got my tickets for the 18th in Chicago and i'm so pumped i cant think of anything else. If they play Unchained then i'll be the happiest man alive
I shelled out mega bux to get a VIP Pass All Access baby! This has been a deam of mine since I was 18 ....I'm 40 now but get to live it all over again!!!
The Sammy '04 tour needed to be done, it grossed a good money for Van Halen and it has helped Sammy and Michael. They both are happy now,I mean if you were just inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame, you'd be happy too! But now VH can move from here, make a new album, world tour ya kno. The moral of the story is that every member is going to end up happy and that fans should be satisfied. Sammy and Dave came back, Ed is sober and Van Halen is back. Hagar and Anthony are done with VH
Dave stated at the press conference that this isn't a reunion....it is a new band. In 2004 they called that Van Hagar mess a reunion which was a joke.
This guy's voice used to do all the rock commercials for all the musical equipment, rock tours, auto & motorcycle commercials etc. I'm starting to get that excitement that I used to have when I would see VH as a kid, again.
I loved this tour and everything.. Wolff is pretty good for his age.. But it isnt a true reunion without M.A. Its like a Beatles reunion without Paul...
