    Van Halen Breaks Tour Gross Record

    All of the false starts and 'internal issues' that were supposed to derail Van Halen's reunion tour—their first with David Lee Roth since 1985—have ended in the band's greatest tour gross yet: more than $93 million, earned before nearly one million fans at 74 North American arena shows.

    "We send our thanks to the countless new and longtime fans that helped make this tour our most successful," Van Halen said in a statement.

    It's unknown whether the band is working on new material, but they have promised "exciting developments" in the near future.
