Guess this puts the pressure on the guys to actually show up for the concerts???

[Lucky]

All jokes aside, I really loved the original lineup, and their songs. I honestly hope this works out.

Add some Texas shows, please?

[Sweet Jane 61]

I hope they pull this off too, but makes you wonder if they will, been trying for a year now. Van Halen fans deserve to see a top notch show.
