Description: VINTAGE!! Van Halen 5150 WORLD TOUR CONCERT PROGRAM BOOK *Excellent Condition" Start: March27,1986 End: November3,1986 This was the band's first tour withHagar following the departure of original singerDavid Lee Roth. It promoted the band's first album with Hagar,5150. Like many Van Halen tours, the routing took the band across North America only. Van Halen took the 70s English rock n roll and translated it for a new decade. With Eddie Van Halens revolutionary guitar playing paving the way, the four-piece has become one of the most influential bands of all time. Any band with Eddie Van Halens virtuosity would have a head start, yet the much-missed Californian guitarist had far more to offer than his shredding technique. Eddie also brought his highly advanced compositional skills to the table and when he aligned these with a crack rhythm section and not just one, but three fantastic frontmen, that meant his band could move with the times and remain among the worlds biggest and most revered hard-rock acts for the best part of two decades. Eddie Van Halen was a game-changer, a tone-chaser, a riff machine, songwriter, composer, an avant-garde artist who picked up the guitar where Jimi Hendrix left it, and ran with it like a quarterback into the future. Eddies wide palette of guitar tropes became a Rock Guitar 101 lesson for the legions of players who followed him. Like Hendrix, many of his extended licks and tricks were highly unconventional at the time, but have since been copied so closely as to have become the new orthodoxy. Steve Hackett, Billy Gibbons and Brian May were just some of the rock guitar players who had tapped before playing melodies by fretting notes on the neck with the fingers of their picking/ strumming hand. But Eddie strapped two turbo engines either side of the concept and shot for the moon. In his nimble hands the technique created whole new possibilities, in terms of the note intervals that could be achieved on the guitar, and the speed at which they could be delivered.
