Oh the drama! I love the humor and frustration presented by our friends at Melodic Rock.

VAN HALEN - WTF?:It seems the Van Halen tour rolls on...albeit with some rescheduling.Here's an update to the update about the update. I'm getting feedback from all over the place. Like sands through the hour glass....Yes, the Van Halen tour is back on. Why am I saying back on? Well, because I am standing by my report of yesterday stating that the tour was off. But that was yesterday! My information yesterday actually came from someone directly involved in the tour - a long time source who has been 100% accurate in all previous dealings. A completely trusted source!It seems my initial hunch this morning was correct and I'm hearing that a massive amount of maneuvering behind the scenes has been taking place to keep this show on the road for the remaining scheduled dates.In the words of one source: “Azoff and company supposedly salvaged a total cancellation. Seems they bought a week of down time...Too much $$$ at stake.”I wouldn't expect any father dates to be added to the currently announced set and I'm yet to hear anything back from my best source, so expect more updates…Clearly something is up from the statement issued by Van Halen - "The Van Halen concerts in Dallas, Cincinnati, Raleigh, and Baltimore have been postponed. According to Eddie Van Halen's physician, he is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures.............................................................................
Well, that's the update and you can read the spin....something still stinks here and I'll get to the bottom of it eventually. Dare I say check local listings for all future VH concerts for possible updated or changes?? Right now I'm going back to resume banging my head against the wall.
