Well it may finally be happening. Some rumors this weekend about trouble with the Van Halen reunion. No official word yet, but some shows have been postponed.
Gotta give em credit though...they have lasted longer than I thought they would. I gave them a week originally...

Trouble in Van Halen?
Ashes of laughter
The ghost is clear
Why do the best things always disappear?

I saw them last October in Chicago... and THEY ROCKED!!!!!
Bought tickets to see them in April and now even IF the tour makes it, I don't want to really go. I saw them and the killed, and this show could ruin it for me!!! It was bound to happen, and it sounds like Eddie could have relapsed, but life on the road is a tough thing...

I hate to see this. They were incredible in Philly.
This is from www.melodicrock.com , which has a history of getting it right.
I can confirm, 100% that this is absolutely correct and there will be no further live shows at this time. We can get to the reasons behind this decision in a later update - but right now I can confirm that the tour is off, but I'm told that there is still some hope that dates might be rescheduled at a later date (to be determined at some other point in time...).
I can add that any possible issues with vocalist David Lee Roth are not behind the tour cancellation.
