VAN HALEN's New Publicist Is Looking Forward To Going On The Road This Summer

January 5, 2007

AVN.com reports that publicist Janie Liszewski has left the adult industry and her company High Profile Media to embark on a new chapter of her career. Effective immediately, Liszewski will be the exclusive PR rep for rocker Eddie Van Halen.

"This new venture does not allow me to do publicity in adult any longer," Liszewski explained to AVN.com last month, "but I want the opportunity to thank all of those who chose HPM for PR and also to all of the media, as I have worked in adult in several capacities since I was 18, and have made many good friends."

Liszewski met up with the VAN HALEN organization while working on the publicity for director Michael Ninn's "Sacred Sin" (Ninn Worx),for which Eddie Van Halen composed two songs.

The publicist's current slate includes the upcoming VAN HALEN tour scheduled for summer 2007. "I am so excited to be given the opportunity to work with such a legendary musical force and look forward to going on the road this summer," she added. "Obviously this is a dream come true in many capacities. I would like to thank everyone for all of their support for so many years."

Rumors continue to swirl that David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen will reunite at least one more time in VAN HALEN. Eddie and his brother Alex are prepping for a tour this year, with Eddie's 15-year-old son Wolfgang on bass instead of Michael Anthony, but no singer has been officially announced. Eddie told Guitar World magazine, "I'm telling Dave, 'Dude, get your ass up here and sing, bitch! Come on!'... As it stands right now, the ball is in Dave's court. Whether he wants to rise to the occasion is entirely up to him, but we're ready to go."

As for having his son in the band, Eddie said, "Wolfgang breathes new life into what we're doing. He brings youthfulness to something that's inherently youthful. He's only been playing bass for three months, but it's spooky. He's locked tight and puts an incredible spin on our (stuff). The kid is kicking my ass! He's spanking me now, even though I never spanked him. To have my son follow in my footsteps on his own, without me pushing him into it, is the greatest feeling in the world."
