LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- One of rock 'n' roll's oddest soap operas took a new twist on Tuesday when the two former lead singers of Van Halen said they would tour together now that the hugely popular rock band has run aground.

I wonder if they'll finally allow brown M&Ms backstage? If they do, then you will know it really is the end of the world.

But there's no mention of Roger. :-(
Are you going to any of the Who shows this summer?
To: NYC GOP Chick
I would like to see The Who but have to talk to the bank first about getting a home equity loan for the tickets. :-]
To: JoshGray
Whoa! Sammy and Dave have been into the Cabo Wabo.

I don't think so, unless they plan to appear in Buffalo.It's bizzare why they haven't got a stop in TO planned, unless its the dollar, but TO has long been one of their biggest bases, so if they choose to stiff us, well,nuts to them ;-)

We're going to the first night at MSG, slightly above stage level, on John's side! :-D
To: habs4ever
They're stiffing most of the US, not even going to the south. I think that the furthest south they're going is Philadelphia. Nothing in Texas. But four nights here!
For the most part, it looks like they're mostly going to the Blue Zone states. ;-)
It's weird, like they're doing a little over a week of shows, then taking off three weeks and then another 8 days or so. I guess their age is catching up with them.
To: NYC GOP Chick
You know who's opening for them? Robert Plant!! I bet they'll check out ticket sales if they are strong then maybe expand it, like hit Phoenix, San Diego, Dallas, Hoston, Denver, Atlanta....and yes, they are getting old ;-)The geezers need their rest!!
