Run with the Devil
It looked more unlikely than an Eagles reunion. But since hell did freeze over when the Eagles got back together, it should be no surprise that “Diamond” David Lee Roth is back fronting Van Halen, who come to the MGM Grand Garden Arena on December 28 and 30.
With Eddie Van Halen on guitar, Alex Van Halen on drums and Eddie’s son, Wolfgang, on bass, the reviews for Van Halen’s reunion have been extremely positive.
Eddie looks like he has his life back in order, Alex never missed a beat, Roth can still hit the high notes, and Wolfgang, while no Michael Anthony, can hold his own.
The good news for longtime VH fans is that the band is playing all of the huge hits that made them Rock and Roll Hall of Famers. While you won’t hear any songs from the Sammy Hagar era, who cares?
Van Halen performs 8 p.m. on December 28 and 30 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Tickets are $68.25, $131.25 and $183.75.
