Van Halen
will be performing live at the American
Airlines Center
on Monday, March 3 at 8:00 pm.
A hard rock band from Pasadena
California, Van Halen was formed
in 1972 and released their self titled debut album in 1978. The band sold over
80 million albums worldwide by the year 2007 and has had several number one
hits on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.
Although the Recording Industry Association of America reports that the band is
the 19th best selling band of all time, with salves of over 56 million albums
in the US,
Van Halen may be better known for the dramatic exits of its former band members.
Sammy Hagar and David Lee Roth left the band several times and were constantly
surrounded by controversy and mass press coverage. Michael Anthony, the
founding bassist, was recent kicked off of the band for controversial reasons.
Yet despite the band’s inner turmoil, Van Halen was inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame on March 12, 2007.
Located around Victory
Park, the American
Airlines Center
rests near downtown Dallas,
Texas. The venue, used for hokey, basketball and
football games, as well as concerts is the home of the Dallas Stars (NHL), the
Dallas Mavericks (NBA), and the Dallas Desperados (Arena Football League).
