Reviews:
“He looks more like me than I do!” – Eddie Van Halen
“As the original bass player of Van Halen, I can tell you that Fan Halen NAILS IT!” – Mark Stone
“I caught FAN HALEN in Jan 2022 in Las Vegas and all I can say is, these guys are ABSOLUTELY F*CKING AMAZING!!!!!” – Neil Zlowzower – Photographer for Van Halen (1978 – 1984)
“As a member of the Van Halen road crew for years and years (ret.) I can honestly say that so far as capturing the music, the energy, the excitement, and especially the fun of the band in its glory days you won’t find anyone better than Fan Halen. Do yourself a favor and take a trip back in time with the boys for a rocking good time.” – John Watkins aka “Pyro John” – Van Halen Road Crew and Pyrotechnics Lead
“I hired Fan Halen to play at my book launch party in Pasadena last fall. They performed for a crowd of old school Pasadena Van Halen fans — I’m talking people who saw Van Halen years before they were famous, back when VH was a backyard party band. A tough crowd to please, right? Not for Fan Halen. I had numerous people come up to me and tell me how impressed they were with how faithfully Fan Halen reproduced the classic VH vibe and sound. I can’t say enough good things about this band and its members. If you’re having a party hire them, and if you’re on the fence about going to see them … buy a ticket now. Trust me.” Greg Renoff – Author of “Van Halen Rising: How a Southern California Backyard Party Band Saved Heavy Metal”
