Apart from the Sydney appearance and a trio of Japanese shows in June, the band remains in a state of limbo. Last summer,Matt Belisle Nationals Jersey, VAN HALEN backed out of 31 North American dates,Nolan Ryan Rangers Jersey, citing exhaustion,Aaron Sanchez Blue Jays Jersey, and then Eddie Van Halen was sidelined for four-to-six months after undergoing surgery for the inflammatory intestinal affliction diverticulitis. Roth was pretty candid in the interview about the state of the band, especially on the prospect of coming up with some new songs,Stephen Piscotty Cardinals Jersey, explaining, "I would certainly look forward to working with Ed on some new material, but we have yet to do that. Almost all of the music that you hear on our most recent album was written and demoed before the first album. . . I'm not sure what's in Ed's mind at this point. I'm gonna guess that his plans are to write with his son, and I'm not sure where that actually leads. But truth be told, Edward and I haven't written a new song in 20 years." |
