Wolfgang Van Halen’s Mammoth announces summer tour dates

Wolfgang Van Halen and his band Mammoth have announced more US headline tour dates.

The End Tour continues this summer with more headline performances added in-between previously-announced support dates for Creed.

The lineup comprised of Van Halen with guitarists Jon Jourdan and Frank Sidoris, bassist Ronnie Ficarro, and drummer Garrett Whitlock are adding 7 more shows to their already busy tour plans.

The newly announced dates bring the summer trek to 18 total performances; the series kicks off July 12 in Edmonton, A and runs to early August.

Mammoth are touring in support of their third album, “The End.”

Wolfgang recorded the project with friend and collaborator Michael "Elvis" Baskette at the legendary 5150 studio, where Wolfgang continued the tradition of writing all the songs and performing all the instrumentation and vocals himself – as he did previously on his debut and sophomore release, “Mammoth II.”

The band are currently opening for Bush until mid-May before they play dates across Europe starting in early June.

Sammy Hagar revises Best Of All Worlds UK dates

Sammy Hagar has announced a revised itinerary for his forthcoming UK tour, bringing his Best of All Worlds Tour to a series of more intimate, tech-forward performing arts venues.

Inspired by the breakthrough success of his recent Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live, where advanced sound and immersive technology redefined the live experience, the July 2026 dates have been reconfigured to prioritise similar venues across the UK. The updated routing also allows for a special multi-night run in London, where Hagar and the band will be among the first artists to headline the soon-to-open British Airways ARC.

The 2026 series – which marks Hagar’s his first UK tour since 1996 – celebrates his 50+ year catalogue of hits, including the deepest dive yet into his tenure with Van Halen.

“After waiting 30 years to come back, we really wanted to get this right,” says Hagar. “Several factors pushed us toward revising this tour but after wrapping our Las Vegas residency last month at Dolby Live where the sound, the technology, and the more intimate size really lets us connect with the audiences, it was clear that we wanted to deliver an experience like that for our fans in England. When I heard our promoter was opening a similar tech-forward venue in London that really sealed the deal for me. Three nights, a fresh set every night, and I get to stay in London, one of my favorite cities in the world, for a week. That’s the Best of All Worlds!”

The band thanks fans for their continued support and looks forward to delivering this newly enhanced live experience across the UK.

Fans who purchased tickets for the original UK dates will be contacted directly and offered priority presale access for the new shows, along with a 10% merchandise offer on show nights.

Tickets are now on sale.

Rock News Artist of The Year No. 9 – DAVID LEE ROTH

David Lee Roth began 2025 with news that he would be releasing a new box set, “The Warner Recordings 1985-1994”, in February via Rhino Records.

The package includes the first five solo releases by the rocker following his departure from Van Halen and the release of the EP “Crazy From The Heat.” The set was an immediate success thanks to the lead single and cover of the Beach Boys’ classic, “California Girls” – which scored Roth a US Top 3 hit – as well as a series of videos from the set earning high rotation in the MTV years.

Roth’s success continued as 1986’s “Eat ‘Em And Smile” hit the US Top 10 with a band lineup featuring guitarist Steve Vai, bassist Billy Sheehan and drummer Greg Bissonette.

1988 saw the platinum “Skyscraper” return Roth to the Top 10 of the Billboard 200, elevated by “Just Like Paradise”, after which he kicked off the ‘90s with the gold-selling “A Little Ain’t Enough” in 1991 and, later, “Your Filthy Little Mouth” in 1994.

In May, Roth announced dates for a US tour; at the time, the rocker detailed the series after playing his first full solo concert in more than five years at the M3 Rock Festival in Columbia, MD.

The mid-summer trek would launch July 22 in Paso Robles, CA, with shows wrapping up in Napa, CA on September 14.

Roth – who previously announced in late 2021 that he would retire from music in early 2022 – hinted at a change in his active status several months later after delivering a private performance in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in May of that year.
