Van Halen Tour Unhinged

Posted Mar 2nd 2008 5:57PM by TMZ Staff

Sources tell TMZ the Van Halen tour has just been canceled!

We're told arrangements are being made right now to cancel hotel stays for the tour -- which was scheduled to continue through April 19th. Sources tell us the reason for the cancellation is Eddie -- that he is having "issues."

The last three shows had already been canceled. There have been reports that Eddie was out of it during concerts -- and video of recent performances in which his guitar playing was atrocious.

Reps could not be reached for comment.

6. Just goes to show how much Eddie the Douchebag cares about his fans. This tour was about one thing: money. I'll bet Michael Anthony is laughing his ass off right about now!

8. He only found out the other day that Valerie had cheated on him....that must have hurt! But who really cares. I can't stand their music (if that's what you want to call it) anyway.

9. I attended the Feb 10 show in Atlanta. The only problems we observed were the horrible sound tech. Problems with Dave's mic going on and off -- his earpiece not working -- getting feedback. During Eddie's big guitar solo, the sound went off totally. We could only hear his monitors. I think their performance was fine. I followed all the reviews from the Florida leg of the tour and every show reported same sound tech problems. Perhaps the band coming down with the flu. The most scathing fan reviews came from the last show in Sunrise FL. After that, they postponed the next two shows. As of right now, Ticketmaster is still selling tour tickets an there is still a schedule on VH official tour page at http://www.van-halen.com/tour.html. I hope this isn't true.

10. Valerie doesn't realize that Eddie is the one she THREW under the Bus!!!! She is the most conceited sick and absorbed person on the planet!!!! She admitted what a terrible wife she was to the guy and now she is treating him worse now that they are no longer together!!!! What a shameful, terrible rotten person and so cruel. Even her own son doesn't want to read the Book. Poor Wolfie, he has to live with the shame even though he doesn't read it. All his friends now and in the future will get to have that choice and they will!!! She doesn't even know what her boyfriend does for a living???? How self absorbed and conceited and pittiful do you have to be? Especialy when he is your Partner and that is what he does for his livlihood and to help support you!!! I feel sorry for that guy! He must not need much in life for a mate! or he is star struck! Poor wolfie! His Mother couldn't have the decency to keep her secrets between her and God alone! She says she didn't write about a lot of stuff?? My God, how sick are you!!! She has got to be the most insecure person in the Wordl, Jenny craig and this Book is her last shot of any kind of attention, no one cares about her Book! It will go down the tubes and just like her non career. What a pittiful B*((CH. I'm sorry Eddie and Wolfie, that you got stuck with such a sad person in life. She can't even stand up for Jesus! She doesn't
even know what the H^&LL is goin in life. Pittifull!!

15. Of course that is an old photo of Eddie as well. There are plenty of current tour photos they could've used. Bad TMZ.
