Van Halen Tickets - The Only True Pop-Rock God

There once was a man named Eddie Van Halen who wanted to completely revolutionize the guitar rock and hard rock industry in a way that could only be described as 'godly.' The 'godliness' wasn't without its turmoil, though. Originally, Mr. Eddie Van Halen was from the Netherlands but then moved to Pasadena, CA, in 1962, and then began playing some rock music with his brother Alex. After meeting with frontman David Lee Roth, they joined together and then recruited bass guitarist Michael Anthony to begin their journey toward rock stardom. Upon meeting legendary Kiss guitarist Gene Simmons, Van Halen then sealed a deal with Warner Bros. Records for their first album in the year of 1977.

Van Halen Tickets - The Music of Halen

Although they stirred some recognition for their debut album, it wasn't until the year of 1984 when they came out with a smash hit: 1984. The one single that propelled them to stardom was 'Jump.' It became the quintessential pop-rock anthem. The band had an excellent flair, particularly with another single by the name of 'Hot for Teacher.' Then came the turmoil. Trouble within the band stirred, and because of David Lee Roth's crazy antics, Eddie Van Halen booted him off the band and made way for the more rugged Sammy Hagar with his true arena metal smash hits like 'Three-Lock Box' and 'I Can't Drive 55.' He became the new lead singer and continued Van Halen's powerhouse popularity with the albums 5150 in 1986 and OU812 in 1988. It wasn't until Unlawful Carnal Knowledge that Van Halen struck gold with hits like 'Poundcake,' 'Runaround,' and the iconic rock song 'Right Now.' Once again, though, trouble stewed, and either Hagar quit or was axed by Halen himself to make way for, yet, another lead singer. And his name was Gary Cherone. We can stop there, though, as the album Van Halen III released in 1998 was a complete flop. Still, the band kept pressing on with the legends that they are. The power they've become in the rock 'n' roll hall of fame.

Van Halen Tickets - The Sound and Style of Halen

Aside from the fact that this was one pop-rock outfit that would actually smile at the camera while performing, Van Halen took the electric guitar and actually created a two-handed tapping style with hammer-ons, pull-offs, and some wild effects that actually sounded like machines or animals. No other band sounded like Van Halen -- and that's why they continued on in the music industry so successfully (through every band breakup with lead singer!).
