Some people think this reunited Van Halen is too old to put on the same epic show they used to, but I’ve read a little about their tour rehearsal and I think their sets are still gonna ROCK!
Here’s some of the highlights of their new show:
- “Jump” has been rearranged into the safer, more age-appropriate “Hop” (“Might as well hop. HOP! Go ahead, hop”)
- Eddie Van Halen has really cut down on his drinking - he’s down to three 12-packs a day!
- Tour Rider stipulates any brown cholesterol, Propecia or Cialis pills to be removed from dressing room.
- “Right Now” has been rearranged into “Back Then” (“C’mon, please be ‘83! BACK THEN! Hey!”)
- Eddie’s not so sensitive and quick to anger over the whole Gary Cherone-as-lead-singer thing because he doesn’t remember who Gary Cherone is or that he was ever lead singer.
- “Hot for Teacher” has been rearranged into “Hot for Night Nurse”
