Van Halen
will be performing live at the GIANT Center in Hershey,
Pennsylvania on March 19 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.
The Giant Center is located in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
It seas 12, 500 guests and serves as a multi-purpose arena and the home of the
Hershey Bears, an ice hockey team in the AHL, replacing Hersheypark Arena, the
Bears’ previous residence.
Since its opening the Giant Center has welcomed the likes of Cher,
50 Cent, Trans-Siberian Orchestra and the Drew Carey Comedy Tour. The center
has also seen several professional ice shows, family events, and special
attractions such as the Ringling Bros and Barnum and Bailey Circus, the Harlem
Globtrotters, Disney on ice, Stars on ice and the Blue Man Group.
