What to Except From David Lee Roth Rocks Vegas 2020 - 15 Song Set

David Lee Roth launched his Las Vegas residency - David Lee Roth Rocks Vegas 2020 - this week (January 8th), and it's everything any Van Halen fan could wish for! His new show has made itself comfortable at Vegas' House of Blues for a rather intimate experience.

“It’s nice and tight, you can see everybody’s faces, you can see eyebrows,” Roth said. “I’ve said that dogs are more popular than cats because they have eyebrows. You can tell what the dog is thinking. Kitty cats, they’re like strippers: You can’t tell what they’re thinking.”

He opened up the residency with a 15-song setlist full of Van Halen classics, but fired the set off with a cover of The Kinks' "You Really Got Me Going" followed by solo lick "Big Train."

From there he went into Halen's "Unchained," where he donned an Elvis Presley wig for a second in honor of The King's Birthday. Watch below.

He only did one more solo cut during the set, "Just Like Paradise," and did EIGHT more Halen staples! Other highlights included a cover a of The Beach Boys' "California Girls." He treated fans with a two-song encore of Louis Prima's "Just a Gigolo / I Ain't Got Nobody" and Halen's "Jump" to finish off the set.

Roth returns to the House of Blues tonight (January 10th) and tomorrow (January 11th) before he heads on the road with fellow rock icons KISS as special support act for their extensive 2020 End of the Road Tour. He returns to Vegas for a batch of dates at the end of March. See all those dates below.

As for Van Halen reuniting? Roth shared that Eddie Van Halen wasn't doing so well, deterring any hopes that they might reunite this year.

“Ed’s not doing well, and singing and dancing is a perishable skill,” he said. “If you have the capacity, it’s something that has to be used routinely, if not for the thrill of it and the magic of creating with other incandescent spirits.”

The last time VH toured was in 2015.
