Van Halen reuniting with Roth

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (Billboard) -- A deal is almost set for David Lee Roth to return to the Van Halen fold for a summer tour of amphitheaters, sources told Billboard.com

They said a contract could be signed as early as Wednesday for tour promoter Live Nation to produce a 40-date trek, which would mark Roth's first outing with the rock band in more than 20 years.

Spokeswomen for Roth and the band said they were unable to provide any confirmation.

Guitarist Eddie Van Halen's 15-year-old son Wolfgang has stepped in for original bassist Michael Anthony in the new incarnation of the group, which also features Eddie's brother Alex Van Halen on drums.

Van Halen last toured in 2004 with vocalist Sammy Hagar, Roth's replacement, grossing nearly $40 million, according to Billboard Boxscore. Hagar refused to collaborate further with the Van Halen brothers after the tour's completion, although he has consistently played live with Anthony in recent years. The warring factions may wind up meeting in public in March when Van Halen is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I'm not too excited about Wolfgang on bass, I'd rather have Michael Anthony on bass any day of the week, but I'll take a Van Halen tour with David Lee Roth. Hell yes.

Also, the rumored Police tour might be something as well.


Hey, how's it going?

Thing is, do people care about the POLICE reunion? If they do, cool.

Otherwise, the VH/Roth reunion is nice.

Yet I hate that the Pink Floyd re-union aint gonna ever happen. Shit, not even the Clash, who would have killed financially if they had gotten back together(but yeah, Strummer's death killed that possibility).

You know what stood out for me in that story?? That it's been 20 years since DLR left the band. How depressing is that?? How is that even possible???

I feel as if I've seen that. Did someone post that in the last Van Halen reunited thread?

Either way, never been a fan. I've always felt their sound was way too tainted by the string of crap that was the 1980s.

The kid will do fine. Hell, Feliciano's band is made up of his own brood, and they're around the same age.

Anyway, I assume this "reunion" comes on the heels of VH's election to the Rock Hall of Fame.

I give it a week into touring before they start arguing, or DLR challenges another member to a fist-fight. Most likely Wolfgang.

Wolfgang would kick DLR's butt. He has to be tough with a name like Wolfgang.

In this day and age the kid could get arrested if he starts singing, "I'm hot for teacher".

Van Halen reunion tour, with David Lee Roth back in the fold after 22 years, is in the works, with a Las Vegas launch looking good.

A late April date at the Palms' new venue, The Pearl, is "99 percent" likely, a source said.

It would be the latest coup for Palms owner George Maloof, who will open the 2,500-seat venue with a lineup that includes Tool, Evanescence, Gwen Stefani and possibly Van Halen, all in the first month.

A 40-date tour is being discussed.

Roth fronted the band from 1974 to 1985 before going solo. He was close to rejoining about 11 years ago, but a blowup caused another rift.

Van Halen's last tour, in 2004, grossed about $40 million, with Sammy Hagar as the lead.

Tool would open the Palms venue March 16-17, Evanescence would follow on March 17, and Stefani is set for the April 21 grand opening.

It is rumored that along with their 2007 Tour, that their will be a "Best Of: 1978-1984" CD single released . . .

I am anticipating that the Corporate selections for the 1978-1984 "Best Of" CD single, at 78min, will simply follow the song selections previously made for "Best Of: Vol. 1" and "BOBW" (which were mainly "Greatest Hits" collections, and --not-- their "Best Of", imo), plus, some other commerical / corporate rock from 1978-1984. (BTY, I really do like Everybody Wants Some, ATBL, Jamies' Cryin', Eruption, Panama, Beautiful Girls, and Happy Trails . . .)


--- My Anticipated Corporate "Greatest Hits" Selections

A 40 date tour? it'll never last that long.

DLR will end up getting kicked off, way sooner than that.

Eddie's son filling in for MA? Oh good grief that has catastrophe written all over it.

The bass lines are simple enough, but not sure I want to hear him try and sing Michael Anthony's signature backups.

If they play near me, tho, I hope it's an early date in the tour.

Re: the reunion tour - I'm not sure who's more pathetic these days. After his disastrous radio stint, I was leaning more toward DLR. But upon reconsideration, I say that Eddie Van Halen wins hands-down for the following reasons: after 3 lead singers, he returns to the original lead singer fired some 20 years ago. Then, throw in the firing of a professional bassist/background singer (Michael Anthony) and replacing Anthony with EVH's son. Eddie - I have news for you. You and your group have been irrelevant since 1994. Nobody cares any more.

Was he fired? I don't recall. All I know is, he's with (VH frontman #2) Sammy Hagar now.

This is from Wilkipedia:

Anthony's future in Van Halen is uncertain as he recently revealed he only played on 3 tracks on the Van Halen III album and didn't play on any of the new songs for the The Best of Both Worlds compilation. Anthony also revealed he was only allowed to participate in the 2004 reunion tour if he signed a reduced royalties contract.

Mike spent the summer of 2006 touring as a member of "The Other Half" along with Sammy Hagar. They performed songs from both the Hagar and Roth eras of Van Halen. At the June 4th, 2006 show in Phoenix, AZ, for example, Mike sang Roth's vocal parts on Running with the Devil and Hagar sang Mike's backup harmonies.

On September 8th 2006, Eddie Van Halen announced that his son Wolfgang is now Van Halen's official bass player shortly afterwards stating he had no more hard feelings towards David Lee Roth and would be happy to 'play a few gigs' with him. On January 24, 2007 it was announced that Van Halen was reuniting for a tour with original frontman Roth and Wolfgang taking Anthony's place. Van Halen's publicist confirmed that Wolfgang will be the band's bass player for the 2007 tour, but only time will tell whether the fans will come to see the show without Mike.

In addition, on December 12, 2006 Guitarist magazine has 'officially confirmed that long-time VH bassist Michael Anthony has been ousted from the fold and [been] replaced by Wolfgang Van Halen, the 15 year old son of guitar wizard Edward.'

Well, apparently rumors are now flying that the re-formed THE POLICE will premiere at the Grammy Awards on Febuary 11th.

Thing is, there is credence for this. Remember the KISS return to their costumes/make-up/theatrics about 10 years ago at the Grammys?

I remember that - they did a good job of making it seem spontaneous. That was the only time I saw Kiss in concert because I was too young to go when they were at the height of their 1970's popularity. They put on a hell of a spectacle in 1996 (two Cleveland shows sold out in 30 minutes) and put a lot of effort into their musicianship. Kiss will never be thought of as great musicians, but they were great performers.

Van Halen will be lucky to have as successful reunion tour as Kiss did in 1996-97. Remember their awkward appearance at the Grammy's with Roth in 1996 where it appeared that Roth was coming back, all the while Eddie VH looking like he wanted to kill Roth on that stage?

Brwne Byte, I also hear that the Titanic sank.

Goombah, shit now I'm expecting for Roth and VH to start fighting each other by June. Anyone willing to bet me on this?

Well, USA TODAY confirmed it. The Police will be at the Grammys.

Knowing alot of people that grew up in the ole 1980s at my workplace and around me...sure you all have read how I've been silly pissing at this Police reunion, but it might actually be the surprise major gangbuster money-maker tour of the summer.

Hell, better than Roth/VH at least.

I am basically a Classic VH fan. I imagined that if I was to pick the VH songs that could be overburned onto a 90 minute CDR, then this exclusive list, would be the songs that would make it onto that CD (for simplicity's sake, the songs are listed in album order, although I would fine tune that order later. . .) In other words, these are the VH songs that I would want to hear, Now! This is not a reminisence of what I would have put on a 90 minute cassette in the year 1984..... This is NOW !

It's really too bad that they didn't decide to release a double CD Best Of on March 27th. Instead there will be just be one CD, covering -only- their MTV and Radio Greatest Hits.... But, for me, the real legacy of VH is their Hard Rock, which separates them from the rest. VH's commercial hits are really no better or no worse than any other bands commercial hits...(Aerosmith, Journey, Def Leppard, etc.)

But, the 2nd CD could have been "The Best of the Rest", and hence a true "Best of Both Worlds: 1978-1984". That 2-CD release would have pleased both the old and the new fan, the casual radio fan, and, the Hard Rock Vh fan...
