VAN HALEN TOUR GOES ON

LATEST: Rockers VAN HALEN have hit back at reports they're cancelling the remainder of their reunion tour. The band rescheduled two concerts in Virginia and Georgia at the end of last month (Feb08), prompting internet reports claiming all tour dates had been pulled indefinitely. But sources within Van Halen tell Billboard.com the band's tour is not being cancelled, although Monday night's (03Mar08) concert in Dallas, Texas has been postponed. And three other upcoming dates have also been postponed while guitarist Eddie Van Halen undergoes medical tests. The tour will resume on 11 March (08). A statement from Van Halen's management reads: "Eddie is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures." Van Halen has famously battled cancer and substance abuse in recent years. No specific details about his medical tests were available."
