Van Halen at Staples Center

The almost-original lineup of Van Halen will play Staples Center on Nov. 20. Ticket info will be announced soon.

The 25-date trek begins on Sept. 27 in Charlotte, North Carolina, and wraps Dec. 11 in the Canadian city of Calgary. Along with Staples Center, key stops include Chicago (Oct. 16, 18) and New York City (Nov. 13).

It won't be a reunion of the classic lineup because founding bassist Michael Anthony has been replaced by lead guitarist Eddie Van Halen's 16-year-old son, Wolfgang.

David Lee Roth and Van Halen were supposed to hit the road earlier this year for a reunion tour, but plans fell through when Eddie Van Halen entered rehab in March for alcoholism. Roth, now 52, quit Van Halen in 1985.
