Van Halen Promotional Material Takes Over Hollywood

by VHND — updated July 11, 2013 53 Comments

Van Halen has taken out a full-size building ad for their new album on the side of The Andaz Hotel on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood. The legendary hotel was formerly known as the Continental Hyatt House, and was nicknamed the “Riot House”. Bands such as Led Zeppelin, the Stones and The Who have stayed there.

Huge Van Halen posters currently decorate legendary bars on the Sunset Strip such as the Whisky a Go Go and the Rainbow. Countless window posters for A Different Kind Of Truth are everywhere.

Here’s a timelapse video of the ad being put up a few days ago:

  • LarryLurex70 LarryLurex70 That’s an interesting thing for him to say. When I go see Maiden play, it’s not to hear Dickinson sing. But, he’s always been a hell of a frontman. Kinda like someone else I’m reminded of.

  • LarryLurex70 LarryLurex70 If it’s really 1986, it’s the year BEFORE anyone outside NYC heard of Flava Flav and Public Enemy’s debut album. As with the Vegas residency, Roth ahead of the pack as always.
