Van Halen concert chronology

The 1984 Tour was a North American concert tour by hard rock band Van Halen in support of their album 1984. The tour was very successful but tension between the Van Halen brothers and Roth was high. After the tour, the band continued to promote the album on their Monsters of Rock Tour 1984 (a short European festival tour to compensate for the main 1984 Tour being North American only), and then David Lee Roth left Van Halen. He would not perform live with them until the 2007 reunion tour. The tour was one of the band's longer ones, but was divided into four separate legs. American glam metal band Autograph was an opening act for the tour.
