Iconic rockers Van Halen played the Phillips Arena last night with Kool and the Gang opening the show.
After all these years, David Lee Roth still does those superhuman high kicks at will, and with Diamond Dave back in place, the group is back to rocking. Michael Anthony is out and Eddie Van Halen’s son Wolfgang mans the bass. Wolfgang can’t quite hit those high harmonies like Anthony could, but whatever, it’s Van Halen! (text by Chad Radford)
