Van Halen reunion might be back on

Billboard reports US arena dates have been pencilled in for a Van Halen reunion tour with David Lee Roth, after earlier plans were put on hold.

So, the previously reported recently proposed Van Halen reunion tour, which would see David Lee Roth front the band once more, may be back on. As previously reported, there was some talk earlier in the year of Roth joining Eddie and Alex Van Halen, and Eddie's teenage son Wolfgang, on a Van Halen tour. But, just as it looked like that might actually happen, Eddie checked himself into rehab putting all the plans on hold. But Billboard reports that a number of US arena dates have now been penciled in for the tour, so they seem to think it could still happen this year, requoting Roth who last year told the industry mag about the prospect of a reunion: "I see it absolutely as an inevitability. To me, it's not rocket surgery. It's very simple to put together. And as far as hurt feelings and water under the dam, like what's-her-name says to what's-her-name at the end of the movie 'Chicago' - 'So what? It's showbiz!'"
