The Kings of Rock are back!

Van Halen is officially back. See some fan shot footage of “I’m the One” here.

10/7/20 – this post updated by ~mc~ . The guitar god Eddie Van Halen passed away yesterday at the age of 65 after a long battle with throat cancer. BMF’s teenage band was Van Halen and I need to get all his Van Halen posts updated pronto.

I’m not sure if BMF ever saw Van Halen in his younger days but we got to see them reunited with David Lee Roth in Atlanta in 2008 and in New York in 2012. According to the Van Halen 2007-2008 North American Tour Wikipedia, the first date of the tour on September 27, 2007 in Charlotte, NC was David Lee Roth’s first show with Van Halen since September 2, 1984. This made BMF very happy and this was his post about it in 2007.  Unfortunately the original video shot by a fan has been deleted by you tube.  #57bmf4ever

The Sex Pistols add more dates

They sold out in 10 minutes for the England show so they added two more dates at the same venue. Read more here.

When asked by Britain’s Virgin Radio about other bands who’ve recently reformed for a tour, frontman Johnny “Rotten” Lydon wasted no time giving his honest opinion, calling Sting — who is currently touring with the reunited POLICE — “a soggy old dead carcass.” The prototypical punk continued, “Listening to ‘Stink’ try to squeak through ‘Roxanne’is not fun. It’s like letting air out of a balloon.”
