Van Halen Tour 2010

Yesterday, Pollstar reported that Van Halen will hit the road again in 2010. My first reaction was... "Say what?"

Isn't it a little premature for VH to hit the road again? I mean, they just toured - for a long time. They made a ton of cash! I thought this "break" was so Eddie and the rest could record a new album? This mythical new album would feature Wolfgang Van Halen on bass. Because of this lineup switch, I was definitely looking forward to new material. I love Michael Anthony. I think having him back is the only way to have "real" Van Halen...but hearing a new perspective from Wolfgang is cool too.

Maybe it's just me, but I think it's a little greedy for VH to hit the road again without a new record. Maybe a new record will happen and it just hasn't been announced. I dunno. I can't see myself spending another $200 a ticket for the same show I saw not so long ago - twice. 

What do you think? Does VH need a new album to tour? Will you be first in line for tickets?

I hope they have new music by the time of the Tour.
I read that they've been rehersing lots of Classics
that they did not do on '07-'08 Tour.I hope to hear
the gems and some VAN HAGAR songs i know that ROTH
can sing dam good on like 5150,Get Up,Summer Nights,
Sorce Of Effection,PoundCake,Feel So Good,RunAround.
I hope the 1st 2 songs are Light Up The Sky and Me
Wise Magic to start the show on rite.
