What's Japan and Australia got to do with this?

But thanks for this very insightful and deep explanation as to how people have different tastes in music. Because I'm giving my opinion on the music and yet you're acting like I'm actually offending you because I'm saying I don't like it and I don't see what people see in this band. That's my opinion, no need to get so worked up about it.

There's a reason Van Halen don't come to Europe at all. Here they're the opening act while the Leps headline.

Actually, Van Halen won't come to Europe because they're asking too much, their fee is too high. I know there's quite a difference from their popularity in Holland compared to the rest of Europe but still, Van Halen was asked about a lot when they made their comeback a few years ago and were offered an arena tour with full blown promotion and yet they refused to make it over the pond simply because they were expecting to get the same per venue as they do in America.
