Van Halen have called off their upcoming tour, despite never officially announcing it.

The band were rumoured to be embarking on a global tour, with original vocalist David Lee Roth all-but-certain to sign the agreement. However, a source close to the band now reveals the plans have been postponed indefinitely.

Roth and guitarist Eddie Van Halen are still rehearsing together with their new line up, and are scheduled to perform at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on March 12. However sources also suggest this performance may be in doubt.
