I was so worried you were truly happy about this, so I was very glad to see the last line.

Wow.

Can David Lee Roth even stand upright long enough to finish a song?

Be ba dee zow! Glad David Lee cut that damned hair. Dude, there is a pair of blonde sisters who play piano and sing and I thought they were a re-named Prussian Blue. Like they got over their reich-ousness. Sorry, couldn't help the joke. But I thought it was them fer realsie. It wasn't, and I promptly forgot the name of no-p-b-band.

How can you guys not be happy/excited about this? Whether everthing is kumbaya or it all turns to shit by the time the trucks hit the road, the journey will prove to be entertaining for anyone who follows along. I'm surprised they don't have a network lined up for a reality series, yet. This won't be the last of it from Mollygood (by the time the tour's over), I guarantee it….

Seeing the same band fail consistently in every comeback attempt no longer entertains me.

But I didn't see Cord claim it would be "the last of it" so I'm not sure why we need a guarantee that it won't.

Hmmm, well, I am glad David got a haircut. I was tired of seeing him try to hold on to the longish hair. It was very Trump'ish. But why the Michael Jackson jacket?

I say it implodes somewhere near the middle of the tour. It will be a whole M&M fiasco. David will get pissed when he finds a blue one in the brown pile.

I love nothing more than a long, Diamond Dave, ramble. Yay.

Alex is a very scary, psychotic looking man these days.

Agreed, he looks like a Tim Burton character, Kitchy.

Yes. I think it was all those years of having to watch Dave and Eddie fight. It has to do something to a man. Something inside him must have snapped.

Wolfie seems to have combined the worst features of each parent.

Sorry, that wasn't nice. True, but not nice.

Be nice - puberty is never kind to any teenager.

Alex is still going through puberty?

I am the only child of the 80s that could give two Hilton $hits about this band…if this were New Order or GnR then I'd be drooling…

Alex has that Britney smile. It makes you think they sit alone in the dark giggling. I just freaked myself out.

Kitchy, the last van halen tour in 2005 grossed over 40 million dollars, with Hagar mind you. This will be much much bigger — to be fair (all personal problems aside) failure only came one and a half times for this band and any one of its alumni…

1. Gary Cherone (Van Halen III)
1/2. postponing this current tour until now for the past five months

I'd bet they do way better than REO Speedwagon.

…or Hall and Oats.

Yes Dave looks better now that he cut his hair and got hair restoration or something, his haircut looks a little dated to me. Then again, so is Dave. Do you think he's still going to pull all the kung-fu moves out and start twirling swords?

Cait: the only teens that puberty is noc to, become less attractive adults!
I'm glad I improve with age……

oops, nice to

I would see these guys in concert in a heartbeat! Eddie looks HANDSOME–better than before–and I hear he is SINGLE–LOL! I wanna see if his kid can RIP on the guitar….

Rick Springfield was here at a local concert not too long ago. I would definitely choose Van Halen over that sadness.

I do have fond memories of Van Halen though. It makes me think of Fastimes when Sean Penn was still cute and bearable.

I swear, Kat, you're totally right. Eddie sucked out Alex's life force to create some hotness.

And Juju, you're also right. I still shake my head at the thought of Spicoli as ambassador to crazy folks like Ahmadinejad and Chavez. Dude!

i cant wait to go with my mom! (shes been taking me to see van halen - when htey have been together - since iw as like 5)

Yeah, my mom is almost 60. There will be no filial bonding over "Panama."

Sigh.

My mom is almost 50 - she took me to see motely crue once - shes really a lot of fun. She loves panama. lol

I had to explain to my parents who The Doors were when Oliver Stone's movie came out in the 90's.

My mom loves Barbra Streisand, ABBA and the Dirty Dancing soundtrack.

My mom is well BEYOND 60…so going with "mommie dearest" is out of the question–At least she would be able to HEAR this band–as she is Hard of Hearing now!
