How i'd love to see this!

[Sckott]

Me too. Why let the Van Halen's get you down? Show the world you're better sports! Getting kinda sick of Eddie's bitchy little stuck up mouth anyways.

THAT'S why David Lee acted all pumped up on the Mean Streets (http://www.davidleeroth.com/meanstreets.mov) video on his site.

This is a big deal, folks. Eddie's not coming out of the house for months.

What has he said? I'm not aware of him doing an interview since Maximum Golf last year.

[Dave]

Now this would be an excellent show to see I sure hope that thtey make there way up here. Wait a minute, David Lee Roth lives here now, at least he was 6 months ago.:D

[ED in NY]

Jeez, the nerve of Eddie feeling a bit out of sorts. You'd think he had Cancer or something...

Dave and Sammy to tour together ? Cool ! Hopefully they'll get a bigger dressing room than the Puppet Show.

My question is: how will they pull this show off...singing together or separate sets? Secondly, who do you think will rock harder? I put my money on the Red Rocker!

[Dugan]

According to what I heard on the radio today, it will be separate sets and they will flip a coin each night to see who plays first.

[Ronald]

I thought Edward had oral cancer from too many smokes in too few years.

[Beagle]

Yeah, I'd love to see these two egotistical talentless clowns try to pull this off. A real sidesplitter. To think that Van Halen were one of the worlds biggest bands for years, yet they could not find a decent singer/songwriter/frontman. Of course, Eddie probably didn't want his own ego to be overshadowed, hence the steady stream of twerps/failures. What a waste.

[HeavyDistortion]

Does anyone know who the musicians, in particular the lead guitarist, will be on this tour? Steve Vai or Paul Gilbert could certainly handle the role of guitarist for this tour.
