My take

Van Halen is Daves meal ticket...he knows it, thats why he's taking a BIG risk making these comments. Whilst never having the greatest voice he's a very clever wordsmith and his voice isn't getting any better (that can be said of many 'aging' vocalists).

Dave knows that going outside of the US might also show the brothers that there is a huge appetite for the band outside of America. They might not make the mega bucks of touring the US but there is always the chance of increased album sales.

I really think that Eddie is tired of Van Halen but he also knows that taking out any version of VH will rake in the cash.

Seeing as though ADKOT was rehashed riffs/songs from back in the day unless they have another bucketload floating around I cant see a new VH album in the near or distant future........not with Roth anyway.
