And, oh yeah, his (David Lee Roth's) voice is shot to hell. Must be if you're taking 2 weeks to sing one song.

Wrong. Dave's voice sounds excellent live today, I saw him one year ago and all the reports from the DLR Band tour agree with what I heard. The reason why the vocals on Me Wise Magic took 2 weeks must be producer Glen Ballard adding all kinds of echos and effects on Dave's voice.. and doing his best to ruin a great tune!
First of all, there will NOT be a VH tour, period.

And may Í ask how the hell do you know?
And thank God - it'd be like rubbernecking on the freeway after a really bad accident. I mean, 3/4 of this band are fucken invalids for cryin' out loud!

3/4? Ed's hip replacement and Al's neck, that's 2 but Mike or Dave??
As for Sabbath - I saw the Fake and Real version a couple of times in the 90's, and the 'phonies' are/were far superior.

If you did say 80s I would totally agree with you. The 1989 Headless Cross show is the best I ever saw from Sabbath, and I have seen the reunion (Dec 99) plus two more Martin/Murray shows, TYR in late 90 and Forbidden in 95.
