We’ve been hearing rumors for some time now and it turns out they are true. Top rock ‘n roll band Van Halen will be uniting with their original leg splitting singer, David Lee Roth, for a North American summer tour.

No specific dates have yet been named but the band is planning to do a 40 city tour in North America. It will be the first time since 1984 that David Lee Roth will be performing on the road with the band. Eddie Van Halen’s son Wolfgang (age 15) will be replacing original bass guitarist Michael Anthony. Van Halen is expected to be inducted into the rock ‘n roll Hall of Fame at a ceremony in New York on March 12, 2007.

The band’s 1978 debut release, simply titled Van Halen, is regarded by many as a milestone in the rock ‘n roll music industry. With the release of Van Halen, the band hit the rock ‘n roll scene like a sledgehammer. It was if overnight Eddie Van Halen’s now infamous guitar solo, titled eruption, spread across the nation and then the world.

The Van Halen sound was unique and the band established themselves as the leaders of the US hard rock scene of the early 1980s. Millions of kids picked up guitars with the desire to learn to play like Eddie.

Van Halen released 11 studio albums from 1978 through 1998. Every record released broke the top 20 spot on Billboards top 200 music chart. According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) Van Halen is on the list of Top Selling Artists of all time, holding position number 19, and having sold more than 56 million albums in the United States.

Van Halen is among the seven rock groups that have had two records sell more than 10 million copies in the United States. The first was their self-titled debut and the other was their release (which had a huge MTV debut) titled 1984. The other six bands to sell two records at more than 10 million copies each are AC/DC, Def Leppard, the Beatles, Eagles, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd.

No mention of which 40 cities Van Halen will be appearing in as of yet. When the information comes in it will be posted here. Long live rock ‘n roll!
