The story: Brothers Alex and Edward Van Halen began playing drums and guitar at a very early age.
By the time they were 15 and16 they had their own three-man band and were playing shows.
David Lee Roth began singing in his own band.
Alex and Edward eventually saw the stage presence David had and wanted him to front their band.
Then they discovered amazing bassist Michael Anthony and wanted him to join their band, he joined.
David Lee Roth decided that the best name for their new band would be Van Halen and it worked for them.
Soon the group was playing any and all gigs they could, exposing them to many.
They were known to play many covers and slowly began bringing their own original music into their shows.
They were very popular everywhere they played in their hometown of Pasadena.
When they met Gene Simmons of Kiss, he wanted to help them get signed.
So the band made a demo but anything Simmons tried fell through, and the band waited for yet another opportunity.
Before they knew it they were signed to Warner Brothers and their first album was released.
It shot them into instant stardom and the band knew their destiny was to be giant rock stars.
