Is Eddie back in the bottle? Or are these legit snowed-out postponements?

It is entirely possible that white powder has something to do with it, yes.

Hubby wanted to go. I told him if we went to see Van Halen (who I can't freakin' stand), we would not then have the money to see S.C.O.T.S. this year. We did not see Van Halen.

I have been thanking St. Mary Of The Bass in my prayers each night for that.

I'd only go if it was a front row ticket and they let me in wearing a "WHERE'S MIKE!?" shirt.

I wouldn't be surprised if MA's vocals are used in their tour - kicked off by a sequencer to be replayed by a sampler.
