Roth Explains Van Halen Tour Postponement

05/21/2012
. (hennemusic) In a new video entitled "Public Relations," Van Halen frontman David Lee Roth offers up details of why the group postponed 31 newly-announced dates of its "A Different Kind Of Truth" tour without explanation last week.

"The band is getting along famously, better than we have in quite some time, and I think the shows reveal that through the miracle of YouTube," begins Roth. "I think we're one of the few bands who relishes you bringing whatever camera � if you can carry it in and pull the trigger on it yourself, then please do. And through the eye of YouTube, you can see that we're having ourselves a hell of a time, and I think that translates into the music."

"As usual, we bit off way more than we can chew when it came to scheduling," Dave continues. "The band is winning, but our schedule has been sidelined for unnecessary roughness. If we continue past July 4th and all the way into Australia and Japan, then we're asking for the robot zombie tour." He leaves it on a good note for fans about the future. Watch it here.
