Van Halen: Rescheduled Japanese dates announced


Concert music industry magazine Pollstar reports Van Halen have rescheduled their Japanese tour in support of “A Different Kind Of Truth.”

Van Halen had originally planned to play the country in late November, but that was before Eddie Van Halen underwent surgery in August for diverticulitis, a condition resulting from pouches in the colon becoming inflamed.

Now, promoter Udo has listed new dates – June 21 at the Tokyo Dome and June 24 & 26 at Osaka’s City Central Gymnasium.

The promoter says tickets purchased for the original dates will be honored. For more information, click here.

While the group have been on hiatus, bassist Wolfgang Van Halen joined the touring lineup of Creed/Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti’s solo band.
