DLR says VH is cool

ALMOST FAMOUSLY: David Lee Roth posted a video this weekend addressing the “temporarily postponed” dates on Van Halen's tour (see 5/21 item). "The band is getting along famously, better than we have in quite some time," says Dave, refuting rumors, before offering an explanation of sorts: “As usual, we bit off way more than we could chew when it came to scheduling. The band is winning, but our schedule has been sidelined for unnecessary roughness. We're gonna take a break and we're gonna come all the way back around, because this tour is gonna take about two years." (5/22a)
