I guess that Van Halen reunion tour is off...

Eddie checked in to a rehab... (and he looks like he needed it, badly!).

Experts say Eddie Van Halen is one of the best guitarists ever.

Do you agree?

is? not sure on is. Was, perhaps. Is? Hmm.

Hopefully when and if they tour, it would be good to have all original members. I am not really interested in seeing Eddie's son playing bass.

its been canceled for a while actually, my brother had told me yesterday so I looked it up.

I agree, but Michael Anthony is now with Sammy Hagar and that just burns Eddie and Alex... I don't see it happening though DAMN that would be ideal :winkwink:

And Eddie is and will always be an icon where guitar is concerned. There is no 'was'... He has pioneered so many techniques and is always coming up with innovative ideas. Props to the man even though he is in rehab - has he been before? I don't remember... :(

nooooooooooooooo

no way dude. not for me. he can play fast as fuck, but I don't think he has good tone and I don't think he is a great song writter. But that's just my opinion.

OMG... he looks like SHIT in that pic.

You know, as I get older I often forget about my old music stars and movie stars getting older with me. Then when I see pics like that it shocks me a little because I always remembered them a certain way, the way they were on top.

Oh well. That's rock and roll for ya.

These 50 yr old adolescents can't ever seem to just put their shit aside and get a decent tour done in a professional manner, which would be patheticly sad alone if it wasn't so laughable.

Fact is they put out a long string of pretty great tunes back in the day, but the other fact is that without their long-term loyal fans who still want to see them they would be nothing.

Someone needs to remind them of that fact.


I've always loved VH, was at their 1984 concert here in Winnipeg which ended up being the final tour of the original band, it was terrific.... But they really need to get over themselves and the stupid shit between them and get it done, or just go away for good.

Wow! He looks fucking awful...i wouldn't even have recognized him.

ps I think they split up, so go for it:thumbsup

wow.. i love propaganda pics :)
