Soundwave Revolution

Alice and Van Halen teaming up for an arena tour of Australia, pretty interesting stuff.

Looking at the gaps between dates can definatly expect Alice to add some dates of his own.

hoping he makes his way to New Zealand again, but will be heading over to Australia to see the Coop once again

cant wait :clap:

So have all the Aussies (and possible New Zealand travellers) got their tickets for Soundwave yet? Got mine last Thursday at the pre-sale. Word is the Melbourne gig is selling well. Location for Melbourne gig is a real pain in the ass though...

I would hope this is a good opportunity for Dave and Alice to do an interview for the radio show possibly. They certainly are two of rock's greatest front men.

I've been a Van Halen fan for a long time, if you told me 20 years ago that I'd be catching Alice and Van Halen on the same gig I wouldn't have believed it.

I vaguely remember that as having already happened, but I'm not sure.

The way the Good Ship Van Halen operates these days, I wouldn't necessarily believe it until the curtain rises and, as DLR often loves to say, you see it in front of your naked steaming eyes.

I think outdoor venues can have an impact on alloted times if there are noise ordinances in the area.
PLEASE, save me from this sick man!

Soundwave Revolution has been canceled.

According to posts on Alice's FB page, the plan is that Alice will still do the booked sideshows and possibly others....
