VAN HALEN Acknowledges Australian Soundwave Revolution Dates Via Facebook Page
Hot Flashes
Posted on Thursday, June 30, 2011 at 10:49:01 EST On May 11th, Soundwave Revolution, the annual music festival held in major cities around Australia, announced VAN HALEN as the surprise headliner for all five of their huge festivals in September and October.
Now, Van Halen officially acknowledged the shows by simply posting the dates on their official Facebook page. This makes the first time that the band has posted any major news via Facebook… or any major news in a long while.
The Soundwave Revolution dates are:
September
24 - Brisbane, Australia
25 - Sydney, Australia
30 - Melbourne, Australia
October
1 - Adelaide, Australia
3 - Perth, Australia
Full Soundwave Revolution details can be found at this location.
Back on May 17th, Tom Russell of UK’s Rock Radio conducted an interview with legendary guitarist Slash (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES). Here’s what Slash had to say about what Van Halen is up to:
Slash: “I’m a huge Van Halen fan. They’re finishing (up their new album right now), actually. I don’t wanna speak on their behalf, but one of the guys that works for us works for Van Halen in the studio and he told me that they’re in the mixing stages.”
Van Halen have been in the studio with Grammy Award winning producer John Shanks, recording their first album with David Lee Roth in more than 25 years, and their first new music as a band in seven years. Shanks has worked with likes of BON JOVI, FLEETWOOD MAC and STEVIE NICKS, as well as massive pop acts including MILEY CYRUS, BACKSTREET BOYS, ALANIS MORISSETTE and CÉLINE DION. A release is expected in the fall which coincides with the announcement that for the first time Van Halen will take their reunion outside of the US and Canada, headlining Australia's Soundwave Revolution.
