Yeah I saw them for Fair warning, 1984 and a couple other times. They rocked. Even 5150 was decent had DLR been the lead. 5150 was very strong but the front man sucked.

Way OT

From the New York Post:

DAVID Lee Roth is back in Van Halen. The original band mates have buried all hatchets and are together again after 15 years. Roth, in full party mode, was hanging out at Moomba Thursday night and told partiers:

"We've been holed up in Indianapolis, trying to keep a lid on this. We're getting ready for a monster tour."

The band is apparently going back to basics, appearance and all. "He looked like he did in the '80s," one spy said. "His skin was like a baby's bottom and he had this platinum blonde hair down to his shoulders" -- prompting some to snicker about David "Weave" Roth.

Insiders close to the band said a tour could come as soon as this summer. "It would be huge. Van Halen had to cancel their last tour because of poor ticket sales," one said.

Roth left the band in the mid-'80s because of fights with Eddie Van Halen, who was jealous over all the attention Roth was getting. Roth's replacement, Sammy Hagar, lasted until 1996 when he felt the band was becoming too "pop." The latest lead singer, Extreme's Gary Cherone, left after just two years. "I'm back on the gravy train," Roth said. A rep for the band didn't return calls.
