ca craint le prix des places a moins que ce soit 2 dollars 30......  |
et malgré les prix, les Canadiens se sont arrachés les places pour Toronto dans les minutes qui ont suivi la mise en vente, du coup, un 2eme concert a été ajouté :
VAN HALEN's October 7, 2007 concert at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada sold out within minutes after tickets went on sale this morning (Saturday, August 18). A second show at the same venue has been added for October 12, 2007 and that concert appears to be headed for a quick sellout as well.
As previously reported, VAN HALEN has made VIP packages available for fans with hundreds of dollars to burn. According to Idolator.com, the group is offering both a "four-star" and a "five-star" package through ILoveAllAccess.com. The first package gets you a seat in the first 20 rows and an "exclusive" gift, while the second one includes a reserved seat "inside the ramp" — wherever that is — a souvenir laminate pass, a backstage tour, access to a pre-show party and "crowd-free" merchandise shopping, a VAN HALEN gift bag and VIP parking. Prices were not listed, but will most likely be at least $250 a person. |

The VAN HALEN Yahoo! list has been updated with the following fan report from a VAN HALEN rehearsal that took place Saturday night (September 8) in the Los Angeles area (rumored to be the Los Angeles Forum):
"On Saturday night a friend of mine got me in to see a VAN HALEN rehearsal in Los Angeles. (I've been sworn to secrecy on certain aspects of this story, including location. Someone else may fill in the details, but it won't be me.)
"We arrived to an empty arena (except for the VH staff) containing VH's full stage setup. No one from the band had arrived yet.
"The stage has a runway which snakes out into the audience in a giant 'S' shape, which mirrors the lighting rig above it. The 'S' continues behind and above the stage so a band member can walk to the very top and be standing above Ed's [Van Halen] rig. There's a giant video screen the width of the entire stage, but neither the screen nor the stage lights were tested tonight; only the house lights were used. (It didn't matter in the slightest.)
"We arrived about an hour before the band while the crew fine-tuned the equipment. Drums were tested, guitars tuned, and pink noise blasted through the P.A. The general mood of everyone seemed very high with lots of smiles and friendly faces. Many people nodded to us and said, 'hello.'
"Eddie was the first to arrive, and very shortly after that, Wolfgang [Van Halen, bass] and Alex [Van Halen, drums]. Valerie [Bertinelli, Eddie Van Halen's ex-wife and mother of Wolfgang] was with Wolf as were about five of his friends from school, I'm guessing. (They all looked the same age.) Alex and Ed spent about 15 minutes on stage noodling while Wolfie was showing his friends the venue. The three of them then met on stage and Eddie said into the P.A., 'We're not opening with it, but let's play 'I'm The One' just to warm up. And that they did. A funny moment occurred when Ed screwed up the bit right before they usually go acapella. He spoke into the mic, 'Did I mess that up?' Wolf confirmed, 'Yeah, you were late.' Both were smiling.
"After 'I'm The One', there was a bit more noodling and then some down time as people waited for Dave [Lee Roth, vocals]. I'm not sure if he was running late or if that's just how the schedule was.
"When Dave did show up, right from the start, he was all smiles. He was dressed in tight, flared out leather pants and a black/striped dress shirt.
"The rest of the account is going to contain, for lack of a better word, 'spoilers' of the show, including the set list, all though not in order. If you don't want to know, fair warning.
"Dave addressed the crowd and treated us as if we were guests in his arena sized house. He thanked us for coming and talked about how excited he was to be here and what a 'privilege and honor' it was to play with his 'bruthas from another mutha.' (And yes, that's a quote.) He then went on to great lengths to explain what we would be seeing tonight: that it was a rehearsal where they would be stopping and starting, testing things out, etc. (And he did this all very eloquently with many one-liners, as only Dave does.) Right before the band began, he explained, 'Okay as soon as you hear the first note, that's when the curtain comes up.' He did that throughout the show; stopping to tell us what we would be seeing if this were the actual concert. The constant commentary and casual asides reminded me of that story I've heard where at a concert he wanted to turn the P.A. around so that 'everyone could be backstage.' That's how this show felt. As if we were being let it on the secret.
"The show started with 'You Really Got Me'. Dave was standing on the high part of the 'S' stage above Alex waving a giant red flag as the show began. Then he threw the flag down, and for the first time in over 22 years, David Lee Roth sang on stage with Eddie Van Halen.
"I'd say there were only about 40-50 guests there that night who were lucky enough to get in. Most of us sat in the 'fve-star' section inside the loop of the 'S' runway, but there wasn't even enough of us to fill it up. And there was a silly L.A. attitude amongst the crowd of 'Oh-I'm-so-hip- I-don't-need- to-sit-in- the-front-row' thing going on, as if this event was an every day occurrence. (After the first song, I couldn't stay away, and moved from the fifth row to right up front, just off center towards Ed's side.) The stage setup has at least 8 speakers just for the people in the first few rows, so you don't have to worry about hearing only the echoey remnants of the main P.A. You'll get the full mix nice and loud. But Holy God, bring earplugs.
"Wolfgang did a fine job, even providing decent sounding backup vocals. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about him, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that Michael Anthony was missed. While Wolf competently filled the position, he doesn't have the same sound, either in his playing or in his voice, as Michael. It's such a shame that silly personal conflicts can't be resolved so that people can finally see the classic lineup again. I do have to say though, it's obvious how much Ed loves playing with Wolfgang. He would be all smiles when he walked over to Wolfie and after one song, stepped up to the P.A. and said, 'Great job, Wolf. Great.'
"Over the next hour and a half or so the band played classic after classic that VH haven't done in years. The Sammy Hagar era is dead now, as far as I can tell. (Although when warming up, Eddie ran the VH-stripped drill across his guitar as if he was was starting 'Poundcake', but no more than that.) I was surprised by some of the gems they brought out. I'll post the songs I remember at the end of the article, but the order will be completely wrong except for the first song and the encore.
"The great thrill of the show was seeing Dave and Ed interact. If there's any animosity between them, it didn't show at all. Both were constantly smiling, and Dave often did the schtick where he holds his mic to Ed's guitar during a solo while he looks at the crowd, open mouthed in astonishment.
"That's not to say that Dave didn't get pissed, however. He was standing out by the far tail of the 'S' runway when, in the middle of a song, he yelled at the soundboard crew with intense anger, 'TURN THE FUCKING VOCALS UP! Don't make me ask you again!' I turned to Ed to see his reaction, thinking he would be pissed at Dave's behavior, but incredibly, Ed just smiled even wider. As Dave walked past him returning to the stage, they did a mini-hi-five, low and behind each other's back. I don't know what it meant. I'm guessing it's one of those things that only makes sense to two people who have known each other for decades.
"I never got to see Dave sing with VAN HALEN live. I got into the band in 1984 when I was 12 and didn't see them until the 'OU812' tour. I've seen Dave solo multiple times, but am always wonderfully caught off guard by his stage antics. He really is the clown prince of rock 'n' roll, and I say that with as much affection as I can. There's not a moment that goes by where he's not trying to entertain you, whether it be with silly facial expressions, dance moves, jokes, props or stories. He is the former 5-year-old kid who ran up to every new adult and wanted to show them everything he owned and all the things he could do and wouldn't stop talking until his parents told him it was bed time. And that attitude has never quite gone away.
"Thinking about the whole experience, I can't help but smile. I was going to write a few more details about the show, (like the brilliant way Dave introduces 'Somebody Get Me A Doctor' or the intensity from Dave that makes 'Mean Street' one of the great live VH songs) but I think it's probably better to let you all discover that for yourself.

regardez bien sur la video ci dessous, qui a été tournée lors d'une séance de repet devant 500 personnes, il y a 2 jours, le chevelu qui essaie de monter sur scène au debut n'est autre que Zak Wilde, et David lui dit : Nah, nah, nah.

c'est bien vrai, en tout cas en voila un qui n'aboie pas, au contraire, quand un grand guitariste rend hommage à un autre, c'est beau :
Steve Lukather to journalist Bob Lefsetz on the "new" Van Halen! Says Luke: "I have seen the future! It's not "NEW" It's fucking Van Halen!! I was invited to a loose rehearsal for the new tour last night. It was NOT the "fab" dress rehearsal, it was one where in a big arena they were rehearsing for the upcoming tour. Now Ed and Al are dear friends of mine for almost 30 years, same "valley" upbringing as me, and I have always loved VH and the music, but also more cause I really love these guys as friends. Our kids grew up together, we live near each other etc.. Fuck all that. I saw and HEARD REAL ROCK N ROLL! It took me back.. I had a fucking tear in my eye. They are Baaaack! If this ain't the rock n roll event of the year then I fucking will be your septic tank salesman! Ed KILLED, Alex, never better (dig the drum solo!). Any doubts about Wolfie are laughable, he played and sang all the high parts and made Alex's groove more deep than ever in the history, 16 years old, look out for THIS kid!, and I gotta say, Dave brought it! I admit, I was a bit "Oh fuck I hope this is good" but fucking A if Dave didn't deliver! (even thought there were maybe 100 people hangin out watching).. I brought my 20 year old son who is a HUGE fan.. the sound and vibe of this band brought me back to 1978 and like a fine wine tasted better than ever! The SET LIST?? It's gonna KILL YOU! GREAT production but it's ALL about the band not flashy images of bullshit artsy fartsy crap, it's the BAND and Dave is really the cat that can front VH. He sang his ASS off and was really cool. No cheese here guys, this is filet Mignon! If you don't see what I saw last night, and that's WITHOUT a massive arena crowd that will tear the roof off...well then you might as well be dead! Nothing fake here guys, nothing shallow or jive... just the best rock n roll band that the USA has got! Whatever they are charging go see it! They were having FUN! There was some humour but not in a cheesy way, VH way. Damn, there IS hope yet!" | "_____ http://www.myspace.com/metal_den _____ http://metalden.free.fr/forum _____" |

Si c'étais Hagar avec V.H : 1 : Zakk serais monté sur scene ! 2 : Avec une Margarita en + ! 
N'importe comment je trouve qd meme que ca ne rime + a rien toute ces reformations de V.H ! Un coup c'est DLR pour le Best of Vol 1 ! Apres c'est Hagar pour le double best of de 2003 ... Maintenant c'est DLR ... pour a mon avis ENCORE un best of ... Franchement ca deviens du n'importe quoi ! ... et surtout saoulant ! EN + M.Anthonny et avec Hagar .... Bien content qu'Hagar ne se soit pas " embourbé " avec ca .... Avis perso bien entendu . | Ce message a été modifié le 2007-09-20 14:08:06 "http://cmfb.frenchboard.com/forum.htm" |

loin de vouloir lancer une polémique hagar/roth, mais niveau "festif" , david lee roth par le passé, et ceux qui ont eu la chance de le voir en Live , etait "la fiesta" a lui tout seul........sur la tournée de "skyscraper", c'etait apperemment quelque chose.......il faisait du surf élevé sur la scene ....et rien que les clips de "just a gigolo", "california gilrs" ou " a little ain't enough" c'etait la folie, et c'etait pas juste de l'alcool a gogo. pour ce qui est de zakk wylde, s'auto inviter sur scene comme ca pendant le set ca parait un peu prétentieux.
concernant cette reformation, et comme toute reformation qui peut engendrer un intéret , ca peut paraitre suspect, mais bon, c'est pas plus suspect que MOTLEY CRUE avec le retour de vince puis de tommy ou de KISS avec ace et peter. donc ma fois.......wait & see! | "I NEED A WEEKEND TONIGHT!" |

Oui je suis bien d'accord sur le fait que DLR est un sacré bringueur ... c'est clair ! D'ailleur attention j'adoore DLR avec V.H et en solo ! ( bien que je n'ai que 2 disques de DLR en solo ... mais j'aime beaucoup ) . Les V.H avec DLR sont vraiment bien meme si je prefere les disques avec Hagar . Question de période peu etre , mais bon les disques sont la ... donc la comparaison est obligatoire .
Pour ce qui est de la reformation , je pense pas que ce soit comparable a Motley par example , car V.H ca fait qd meme la 3 eme reformation ! 1 : période best of vol 1 :avec DLR 2 : periode double best of : avec SH en 2003 3 : et celle ci ... Ca fait beaucoup non ?? Perso je pense que ca aurais été mieux que tout le monde tourne seul ... DLR continuant sa carriere solo ... | Ce message a été modifié le 2007-09-20 14:47:36 "http://cmfb.frenchboard.com/forum.htm" |
