VAN HALEN On Hold Until Wolfgang Graduates
Yup, you read that correctly.
Van Halen have already mentioned that they want to record a new album but this is being put on ice for the time-being while 17 year old bassist Wolfgang Van Halen graduates from high-school.
Making more positive noises about making a brand new Van Halen album, Eddie Van Halen said to Hustler magazine: “We’re just waiting for the right time. I took Wolfie out of school for a whole year to do the tour. It was just a bad time because the 11th grade is the year when they prep you for college.”
“First he graduates, then we’ll sit down, give Dave (Lee Roth) a call and see if he feels like whooping and hollering a little bit. I’ve got a ton of music.”Not that the legendary shredder is finding this situation easy with Eddie adding: “Just a few weeks ago I almost yanked him out of school. But I do want him to graduate. The thing is, he already has a profession and a career that he’s successful, talented and gifted at.”
