Dave is like me and you can ask Chip about this.  I never rest on my laurels....although VH obviously is a MUCH bigger entity...but I have NO problem going back to a small club , speakeasy or 30 seater(or going online totally anonymous)  to cut my teeth as it were with my art....you play for the people.

"Alex and I have been begging to become part of that, and Glastonbury and Reading and Hyde Park. We keep being shuttled into the heavy metal world, and that's a very exclusive neighborhood, but here we are – we're back knocking on the doors begging for Bonnaroo and begging for Lollapalooza and Coachella, not even as an advancement of career, but there's a whole new audience who doesn't know and doesn't give a **** about Van Halen, and that's exactly the best audience to sharpen your spirit on. That will compel you to the very best that you have. I can't wait for those opportunities and wish us well. We've been asking for those shows since I've gotten back with the band six years ago, and I'll be very curious to see where we wind up come next season.

"
I feel bad for dave...seems like he's got the right frame of mind and maybe the other parties don't/  it's a band and a band has got to play gigs...it's so simple and so far from EVH's reality//
