    I really can't get that exited about this even though I am a great fan of Van Halen. How many times have we seen this before recently? The Police are back together as well. Many bands that didn't break up came out of the woodwork again such as The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Pearl Jam. It seems that because the music industry today is a travesty these bands are coming back. Also many of these bands spent all their money on drugs, material items, and women back in the day; and now that they are older and sober, they are trying to compensate for the money they lost. It's like they can now put behind their ego driven battles of the past to get back together and make some money.

    It's just hard for me to take bands seriously after that. I am not denying their great talent and ability, and Eddie Van Halen was prolific in his guitar work, but all of the originiality is from the past. It is now going to be a rehash. It's also hard for me to take a middle age man rockin' seriously. Rock is supposed to be a more youth testosterone driven genre. Though I supposed Mick Jagger is still pulling it off.

    I think it will be interesting to see if they actually tour and put out an album. Eddie's kid Wolfgane is also in the band. So it will be interesting to see if he is as good as his dad is.

    Without Michael Anthony, the backing vocals and harmonies won't sound right. Has anyone heard Dave sing recently? Yipes. My uncles took me to the "1984" tour when I was 12. I'll just treasure that memory, and not sully it with all this silliness.
