One of the biggest names in rock is on the way to San Diego.
David Lee Roth made an unforgettable impact on rock as the frontman of Van Halen, one of the most successful of the arena bands of the 1980s. Performing anthems like “Runnin’ with the Devil,” “Hot for Teacher,” “Panama,” and the ever-popular “Jump,” Roth’s unique vocalizations and high energy on-stage persona helped propel the band to world-wide stardom, and to sales of more than 80 million records. Van Halen remains one of the most influential bands in rock.
Roth was with Van Halen three times, from 1974 to 1985, again in 1996, and a third time from 2006 to 2020. When he rejoined the group in 2006, they traveled North America on a tour that was the highest-grossing in the history of the band.
Roth began his solo work in 1985, and released “Eat ‘Em and Smile,” his debut album, in 1986. The LP was mostly hard rock with some diversions, including a bluesy version of “Tobacco Road,” and a jazzy cover of “That’s Life, a Frank Sinatra classic. The album was a hit, both critically and commercially, hitting No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200, and selling a million Copies.
Away from music, Roth is an EMT in New York, a martial artist, and a licensed helicopter pilot. He will be at Humphreys Concerts by the Bay on September 8. Organizers of concerts like this will often use poster printing to create advertising for them.
