Van Halen dress rehearsal

Thanks to Stereogum for pointing us to the Van Halen dress rehearsal that went down sometime a few days ago...

"The great thrill of the show was seeing Dave and Ed interact. If there's any animosity between them, it didn't show at all. Both were constantly smiling, and Dave often did the schtick where he holds his mic to Ed's guitar during a solo while he looks at the crowd, open mouthed in astonishment."



Looks like fun - hope it lasts. Their tour is definitely gonna make great blogger fodder this fall.
