Hello readers!
I'm pleasantly surprised these days. I've been watching the blog from day to day and I see that there's more hits every day, including that all of you who visits and read my posts are from countries all over the world!:-D This makes me happy, a week ago we had the largest number of hits in one day, 43!!
But to the subject of this post!
For those of you who are fans of Van Halen, this is old news. But they deserve some recognition in this blog anyway since I'm a huge fan and they're a great band.
For the first time in 14 years the band's getting back together for the writing and recording of a brand spanking new album!
The album was released a few days ago, the name of the record is A Different Kind of Truth. I've only listened to one of the songs on the album, since I want the mood to be special when I listen through the entire thing cover to cover. Its not the entire original line-up, but lead singer David Lee Roth, Eddie Van Halen and his brother Alex is on the train, as well as Eddies son Wolfgang who is stepping in for Mike Anthony on bass.
They've announced a new tour with released tour-dates. Sadly the only dates released are only shows in the US. I hope and pray for a entire world tour with a long stop for a good show here in Norway. This is the downside with living in a small country way up north when many of the good bands are based in the US...
Either way I'm happy for the new album and I cant wait to sit down with a bottle of Jameson and listen to it.
I'm gladly accepting comments to this post and corrections if some of my facts are wrong. I would also very much like updates!
