DLR Tour Coming Soon!

November 5, 1998 - David Lee Roth last night attended the 29th birthday party of Sean Combs, better known as Puff Daddy. VHND correspondent Mitch Gerber was in attendance, and had the opportunity to speak with Dave and snap the accompanying photo.

Dave said he will be touring "very shortly". Details will be announced soon. In anticipation, we've created our DLR Tour Page. The idea will be the same as our Van Halen tour page - fans who see a show are invited to submit reviews, set lists, photos, videos etc.

1999 is set to be another good year for fans of Van Halen and their ex-lead singers. It's possible that all three will be on the road, supporting new albums. We hope to provide maximum coverage of each album and tour.
