It's one of the most unlikely hook-ups the rock world could have seen, but it seems Eddie and Alex Van Halen are putting their differences with singer David Lee Roth behind them for a new tour and album.
At a Los Angeles press conference on Monday, Roth revealed their plans for a 25-date North American tour and new album 22 years after splitting from the famed hard rockers over their new synth-led direction for a 1985 set.
"This is the press conference you never thought you'd see - especially while we were still young, skinny and good-looking," said Roth.
"It's a new band with a new sound and new energy from Wolfgang, but we'll play songs you know as well as the roof of your mouth. We're already plotting and planning. The idea is that it will continue on and on."
Alongside Eddie and Alex Van Halen, Eddie's 16-year-old son Wolfgang joins the line-up on bass guitar.
