The Other Half tour announcementNo one knows if we’ll ever see another Van Halen tour, but Sammy and Mike are trying to give fans the next best thing. They, along with The Wabos, will hit the road this summer for a tour that will feature an opening set from Sammy and The Wabos, and a closing set from Sammy, Michael, Vic and David.

Dubbed “The Other Half,” the newly formed quartet plans to play nothing but Van Halen songs.
