There comes a time in every rocker's hair life when he has to decide- Do I want a nice, clean-groomed cut, or do I want to try to hang onto the vestiges of fading-collegen so I can think I still look cool like I did in my youth, when I actually now resemble and aged old hag with my long hair?

Just ask Robert Plant- he looks like my mom (no disrepect intended, ma).

I think Alex is sporting the best old rocker look.

To the mods:

Could you please nuke the above post?

I find it refreshing that there's no religion or political discussion on the Evh metro board.

It a nice and idyllic getaway from all that jazz.

No offense Sentience but, there are plenty of places on the web where you can discuss
that kind of stuff to your hearts content.

This from melodicrock about the 1st new pic:

Captured at an undisclosed venue in Los Angeles, are (L-R) Alex Van Halen; Wolfgang Van Halen; Eddie Van Halen; Jimmy Iovine, Chairman, Interscope Geffen A&M Records; Irving Azoff, Executive Chairman of Live Nation Entertainment and Chairman and CEO of the Front Line Management Group; Steve Berman, Vice Chairman, Interscope Geffen A&M Records; David Lee Roth; and Jim Urie, President and CEO, Universal Music Group Distribution.

So there you have it folks...the first new Van Halen picture since 2008....taken Monday at The Roxy club in LA, whilst shooting a video for the first single from their upcoming new studio album due early next year. I had mentioned previously that a source told me that the band also filmed out door footage about 3 weeks ago. Hopefully we'll be seeing that clip sooner rather than later.

In related news...a little more information from my source connected to Columbia Records. The told me that manager Irving Azzoff handles the Van Halen's, while David Lee Roth continues to retain his own independent management. Azoff and Columbia had agreed on terms, but DLR met with Columbia and went back with his manager and said he wanted "something in LA, something hip, somehting that was "cool" do a video", whch apparently he felt wasn't being presented by Columbia. DLR won, Azzoff went with the Van Halen's who agreed with DLR.

The only text included with today's picture release was "Want to know why? Stay tuned..." So I guess that official announcement is finally in the pipeline.

Finally, I have been searching for an update on the rumored Grammy Announcement Concert appearance by the band November 30 - as of this week - that appearance is ON.

Ed does need to shitcan the hair. I think he'd appeal better to the female audience as a more mature cleaner cut look. I don't miss my long hair. Of course i am 36 now so maybe i am just slowin down or not rebel enough anymore
But come on at least stay fresh and successful looking. He can afford a damn haircut now unlike their poor humble beginnings.

I'm a bearded lady. The MAN is out to get me. Oh crap...um... 6CA7. Brown. Have a nice day.
