Reports that Van Halen would reunite with David Lee Roth for a 2011 tour emerged earlier this summer.  If anything is coming together, it is happening under the radar.  That's unusual for a band that loves getting the media in a frenzy well ahead of big announcements.  At the very least, we would expect some clever clues to emerge on the VH web site.  Nada.  The only item on the news page of the site is a welcome to 2010 message posted on December 29 of last year.  The band's last tour fronted by Roth was in 2008 and drew nearly a million fans.  With up to 40% of concert seats empty this summer, the prospect of a Van Halen tour is something concert industry honchos have to be salivating over - and putting pressure on the band to do.
