They should have called it The Dave Doesn't Like to Move Around Much and Can't Kick So High Anymore But Sure Likes to Fiddle Around With Scarves Tour 2012.

Music writer Steve Newton is filing items of interest from tonight's (May 7) Van Halen show at Rogers Arena. Check back tomorrow for the full review at www.straight.com/music.

He's fifty-seven freakin' years old, Steve. 58 in October.

Of course he doesn't kick as high as he used to twenty years ago, I don't and I'll bet you don't either.

His voice (the important bit) is in pretty good shape though, wouldn't you say?

S'all good, enjoy the show. Wish I was there.

Excellent show, as said above David's voice is not like it once was but he can still move like the best of them. A great Guitar clinic with Eddie !
