Van Halen Played Tiny NYC Club - Announce Tour
Last night, Van Halen played a show at the very intimate Cafe Wha? (capacity 250) in New York City. The band is coming out with a new album, A Different Kind Of Truth, February 7th, and will tour behind the new release. Full tour dates below include a stop at the Boston Garden March 11th.
Tickets on sale to the public January 14 here. There will also be a presale code if you RSVP on Facebook here.
How did they sound? Well, there are a few low-quality videos on YouTube already, and you can judge for yourself. The guitar, bass, and drums sound pretty tight, but David Lee Roth’s voice isn’t quite what it used to be.
