Van Halen Tour Is On Like Donkey Kong!

Van Halen's current tour, much like most of their members, has been brought back from the dead. Van Halen
As we first reported, the group canceled remaining tour dates and hotel reservations through April 19. Live Nation, the company behind the tour, says that Eddie Van Halen is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures. They say these dates are rescheduled starting April 24.

Eddie checked into rehab last year for alcohol-related issues.

2. They're only the number one grossing group on tour right now. Like Frank Zappa once said and released an album entitled, "We're Only in it For the Money".

These has been, former and present drug users are emotional and spiritual losers. Financially they are set, but Finances alone dont save marriages now do they Eddie?

4. I'm sure it doesn't help that his ex-wife just published her tell all book, undoubtedly to capitalize on the timing of Eddie's tour since her only claim to fame in the past 30 years is Jenny Craig.

5. I saw these guys in November in Edmonton, Alberta (Canada) and they KICKED ass!!! They are in full form and anyone who grew up listening to them or the new generation that loves their stuff should do everything they can to see their show. Absolutely AWESOME!!!
And #2, didn't Valerie Bertenelli say in her latest book that she cheated on Eddie long before he did it to her? I guess it wasn't fianances that broke up their marriage, maybe it was a cheating spouse???? Hey, they lasted 20 years, more than most of us can say for a marriage these days, especially one that's famous!!!

6. Yeah, tour's on until the next person finds a brown M n M mixed in with his green ones! Someone's panties will forever be in a knot with this bunch-o-geezers! Fake hair, fake teeth, fake hips, deaf, no liver having gomers!

7. Bull...they have to figure out a legal strategy to end the whole thing without getting bankrupted by endless lawsuits. Watch for "Ed's got rectal cancer! No more tour! Can't tour with cancer up your ass!"

14. Eddie did fall off the wagon. David is disgusted by his, once again, selfish, ridiculous behavior. I am friends with Dave and it sickens me to see Dave and his team have to ONCE again shut down ops so Ed can deal with his skeletons. Rumor amongst the crew is the recent Val publicity sent him over the edge. What a joke...he needs to snap out of it and relish in his talent, fame and celebrity.
