Van Halen Reunion Off The Table
<snip>

Van Halen's announced comeback with original singer David Lee Roth has been shelved before it has even happened.

The new line-up of Van Halen was to include Eddie Van Halen's son Wolfgang who now officially beats Gary Cherone as the least time in the band.

Wolfie replaced original bass player Michael Anthony who was either fired or left on his own accord, depending on who you speak with.

The reunion with Roth got off to a shaky start when Eddie's girlfriend (and former porn star) Janie Liseweski put out a press release announcing the reunion before it had been run by David Lee Roth.

While Spinal tap may have originally been based on Black Sabbath, Van Halen is sure to inspire a sequel.

Roth left the band in 1985 and was replaced by Sammy Hagar. Hagar found out he was dumped in 1998 when he read about it in the press. Former Extreme singer Gary Cherone came in for a third version of the band but didn't survive past one album. Hagar returned for a tour in 2004, but left citing issues with Eddie Van Halen for his second departure.

After Anthony was dumped for no apparent reason, he went out on tour last year with Hagar performing a complete Van Halen setlist.

I think Valerie Bertinelli got the best years of Eddie Van Halen

6. Just give it UP already!
As much as I loved the original Van Halen from the debut album to 1984, they have creatively expired long ago. Eddie's 52 and has a nice nest egg and survived cancer. Just call it a career and give it up. Your core fans have long abandoned you, Valerie BertandErnie left you, and your on the verge of being in the same joke camp as the Rolling Stones and other aging rogers trying to pretend to be young party boys. Perhaps Michael Anthony knew all this and decided to bow out gracefully.
