Van Halen reunion tour to kick off in Las Vegas
By Norm Clarke
A Van Halen reunion tour, with David Lee Roth back in the fold after 22 years, is in the works, with a Las Vegas launch looking good. A late April date at the Palms' new venue, The Pearl, is "99 percent" likely, a source said. It would be the latest coup for Palms owner George Maloof, who will open the 2,500-seat venue with a lineup that includes Tool, Evanescence, Gwen Stefani along with Van Halen, all in the first month. Many critics consider Van Halen the greatest party-metal rock band of all time.

I don't know about this but??

Tour starts early May in North Carolina which is fairly typical for Van Halen in the past. They have almost always started tours in places like NC or Florida.

Also, I'd say the odds are nearly 100% that there will be some sort of pre-tour show about a week before the tour kick-off in a small venue or even a club in LA like there was for the '98 and '04 tours.

I can see them starting in vegas for a show or two then heading straight for the east coast to continue the tour.
