Van Halen future 2008 tour dates on hold?

Van Halen has put all future tour dates beyond the end of its current run on hold, a source at Buffalo radio station WGRF-FM has told Blabbermouth.net. According to the source, the promoters announced that a Van Halen concert scheduled for May 17th in Buffalo is one of a group of new shows that have had their on-sale dates held back. The group's latest leg is slated to end on April 25th in Sacramento, California.

Van Halen postponed two concerts last weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia and Duluth, Georgia. No reason was given for the postponements, but both were rescheduled for mid-March.

According to numerous unsubstantiated reports online, internal band tensions have been flaring up again as the tour has gone forward. The group hit the road last fall with original singer David Lee Roth for the first time in 22 years.

An inquiry to Van Halen's publicist was not returned at press time.
