VIDEO: Van Halen rock 1979 classics in New York




More video has surfaced from Van Halen’s rare, media invite-only Thursday night club show in New York.

The event showcased the band live as they promote their upcoming tour and new album, “A Different Kind Of Truth,” set for release February 7.

The group’s hour-long set at the Cafe Wha? leaned heavily on classics and hits, including a couple of tracks from 1979’s “Van Halen II” album.

The freight train that is “Somebody Get Me a Doctor” led into 1980’s “Everybody Wants Some,” followed by the new track “She’s The Woman” into “Dance The Night Away.”
