The dates are set for a 2007 Van Halen tour with its '80s frontman, David Lee Roth. Brothers and founding members Eddie Van Halen, the band's guitarist, and Alex Van Halen, the drummer, will bring with them Eddie's 16-year-old son Wolfgang, who replaces bassist Michael Anthony. "This is not a reunion, this is a new band," Roth said at a press conference Monday in Los Angeles. "Usually, when a band comes back like us, it's rockers with walkers." Yeah, that's right, you read the above correctly. Roth will be with Van Halen - really cool. Even more interesting is the fact that Michael Anthony has been replaced by a 16 year old kid. On one message board, perhaps it was best put " I’m certainly not interested in watching some fat 16-year-old kid play bass in Van Halen. Eddie, keep your kid at home." Regardless, we are interested to see what type of chops Wolfgang has.  Wow, Michael Anthony is looking slim ;)
