After several years of inactivity, Van Halen returned to the road in late September for its first tour in 22 years with original frontman David Lee Roth. The outing--which features a nostalgic setlist comprised solely of songs released during Roth's original 1978-1984 stint with the group--has been a hot seller at the box office, and has received mostly positive reviews from fans and critics alike.

Despite Roths' return, the outing falls short of being a full-fledged reunion of the band's original lineup; prior to setting out on tour, the band's namesake brother duo--Alex and Eddie Van Halen--bounced founding bassist Michael Anthony in favor of Eddie's 16-year-old son, Wolfgang Van Halen.

Earlier this year, Van Halen was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Anthony and former vocalist Sammy Hagar [ tickets ] were the only two members to attend the ceremony; Eddie Van Halen was in a rehab facility at the time, and Alex and Roth chose to bow out.

Hagar, Anthony and Hagar's backing band, The Wabos, are in the midst of their own 60-date tour, which launched last month and is slated to run until July of next year.
