I hope its good.

Ok decent.


Ok the album will probably suck but the tour may be good

singer on it?

The album, Van Halen's first since 1984 to feature original singer David Lee Roth, is due out on February 7, 2012 with a single and video slated to premiere on Jan. 10, the same day tickets go on sale for the band's world tour.

This can't end well.

about 25 years too late.

And yet, I will still buy it. Even if for no other reason then to keep my last VH record from being with Gary Cherone.

dammit i was hoping it was with hagar

knew it wouldnt be and all, but still

Any bets on this being better than Lulu?

I predict this will be good. I don't know why - just a feeling. I really don't think, after all this time, that they would go through all this and put out a piece of crap. Just sayin....................

or a cash grab.

that art looks like the lazy photoshop garbage that is on all the late-era Blue Oyster Cult stuff.

But a lot of those are pretty good, so

well if it's all based on 20-30 year old EVH riffs from back when he could come up with a good riff still, then it might not be too horrible

I predict that this will be better than Backspacer.

Seriously, that's the easiest bet in the world. Nothing released in this coming year will be worse than Lulu. Nothing.

Not a big fan. But their club show in the west village last night would of been awesome to see. They fucking played at Cafe Wha

Tour dates announced today. April 12th in Tanpa!

No St. Louis date but plenty of open days around the KC date to fit it in.

david lee roth with his aoooowwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaoooohhhhhhhhs are fucking annoying

im only really a fan of unchained and ill wait when it comes to dlr

hagar was so much better..

eddie van halens best work wasnt even on a van halen album
