Photographer Jeff Findley was lucky enough to attend a full stage rehearsal for Van Halen’s soon-to-launch tour, and has posted at his website 112 photos that he snapped.
Meanwhile, Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian also attended a rehearsal, and posted the following review at his MySpace blog:
I went to see Van Halen rehearse last night. They were fucking amazing (ear-boners).
Seriously, the hair on my arms was standing up. Dave sang great, Eddie was shredding, Alex is a fucking monster and Wolf was perfect. Great on bass and hit every high note. The set list was 2 1/2 hours of the best shit. I’m The One, Atomic Punk, Romeo Delight, Somebody Get Me A Doctor, Mean Street, Unchained and so many more. Do whatever you gotta do to get tix to see this. FINALLY!!!!! A real full blown arena rock act!!!!! It’s like listening to the soundtrack of America since 1978. THE KINGS ARE BACK!!!!!!!
