About Van Halen
Van Halen is one of the most influential rock bands of this era. On March 12, 2007, Van Halen and some of its former members were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. According to the Recording Industry Association of America, the Van Halen ranks #19 on the all time albums sold list selling 56.5 million copies over their career. In 2007, Van Halen began a reunion tour which included original singer David Lee Roth. Along with members Eddie and Alex Van Halen, Wolfgang Van Halen, son of Eddie, joined the tour as the bassist.
Van Halen dates back to 1972 in Pasadena, CA, when Eddie and Alex Van Halen had formed the band "Mammoth". It was as part of this band where the met David Lee Roth, who became lead singer. They built a major following in California but learned that their band name was already being used, so they changed it to Van Halen. In 1977, Gene Simmons saw the band at a Los Angeles club and with his help the band signed with Warner Bros. Records. Their self titled first album featured two hit songs "Runnin' with the Devil" and a cover of the Kinks' 1964 hit "You Really Got Me." The album went on to sell more then six million copies. What followed was a string of immensely popular albums including 'Van Halen II' (1979), 'Woman and Children First' (1980), 'Fair Warning' (1981), 'Diver Down' (1982), and '1984' (1984).
Each of those albums were recorded with David Lee Roth as lead vocals, but in 1985 Roth left Van Halen to pursue a solo career and was replaced in the band by established rock vocalist Sammy Hagar. Hagar's stint with Van Halen began with a string of albums that went multi-platinum. Albums included '5150' (1986) and 'For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge' (1991). Following 'Balance' (1995), tensions began to arise between Hagar and Eddie Van Halen as Hagar was against the recording of 'Best of…' album as he refused to perform any songs that were originated by David Lee Roth. Hagar left Van Halen in 1996, he claims he was fired while the band says he quit.
By 2007, Van Halen had gone through many different transformations. But nothing has stopped the music. Find hard to get Van Halen seats on TicketNetwork and get your Van Halen tickets today!

Their reasoning was if the venue staff could not honor the request there was reason to believe that other technical aspects of the contract were not honored as well.
