“It’s crazy to think that it’ll be 20 years since Mikey and I played these songs with Van Halen": Sammy Hagar announces The Best of All Worlds Tour with Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani and Jason Bonham

Sammy Hagar summer 2024 tour.

Sammy Hagar has announced The Best of All Worlds Summer 2024 Tour, where he'll be performing Van Halen songs alongside his former VH colleague Michael Anthony, his Chickenfoot bandmate Joe Satriani and The Circle's Jason Bonham.

The tour comes in the wake of the release of Van Halen's The Collection II box set, which featured remastered versions of the four consecutive US number one albums released during the band's 'Van Hagar' era: 5150 (1986), OU812 (1988), For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge (1991), and Balance (1995). 

Promoters Live Nation say that the tour will represent, "a reminder to fans of the arsenal of hits, many which haven’t been played live since the band’s 2004 reunion tour... a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see this band of brothers deliver one of the most legendary hits-packed live shows of their career."

"It’s crazy to think that it’ll be 20 years since Mikey and I played these songs with Van Halen on the 04’ Best of Both Worlds Tour,” says Hagar. “With Joe on board, we can take a deeper dive into those years. We’re going to touch on some hits from my entire career but seeing fans old and new really embrace the new collection set off something in Mikey and I. We were at my Birthday Bash in Cabo for my 76th and looked at each other and high fived, like ‘let’s do it.’ We pulled out a couple of them and it was an instant lovefest with the fans from our first riffs. The music we created is going to outlive us all. They deserve to be heard so it's time we go out and serve the fans that music, while we still can."
