The short answer: Yes, for now. The long answer: The band saw many ups and downs and has been on and off since 2000. Press releases say one thing, while the member's behaviors says another. Constant re-releases, constant remasters, some live appearances, but to me; a band is "together" when they are recording and releasing albums. No doubt about it. Whether they are together, it is a matter of people's opinion. To me they are far from being a true band like they used to be. Wikipedia Quote starts here:

Constant re-releases, constant remasters, some live appearances, but to me; a band is "together" when they are recording and releasing albums. No doubt about it. The last real album they released was in 1998 called Van Halen III. They had a couple of singles in 2004. You go to the website, you see a bunch of promising stuff. You see some press releases about merchandise and such. But nowhere can you see that they will be releasing a real album anytime soon. They seem to be marketing a pair of sneakers lately, as a consolation prize, for those who were expecting a comeback. The type only devoted hardcore fans would wear, yet occasional fans like me do not see the point if I can't wear them for their next tour. Whether they are together, it is a matter of people's opinion. To me they are far from being a true band like they used to be. Wikipedia Quote starts here: "Van Halen is a hard rock band formed in Pasadena, California in 1972. They enjoyed success from the release of their self titled debut album in 1978. As of 2007 Van Halen has sold more than 80 million albums worldwide"
