The set list for Hagar’s return to the Palms will largely reflect that performance.

Hagar recalls playing the Pearl “years ago, after it first opened.” Yep, that would have been in February 2008. Hagar is also playing Harvey’s amphitheater in Lake Tahoe on July 14. Hagar’s show is promoted by Live Nation, in an exclusive booking partnership with the Palms at the Pearl. “We debuted this band in Cabo at my birthday bash, years ago, and it makes all the sense in the world that there is no one out there supporting the Van Halen catalog, which has some of the greatest rock songs ever written.” “Michael and I will feature what we call, ‘The Other Half,’ with a lot more Van Halen, even a few early songs,” Hagar said in a text message Monday morning. This show should excite Hagar’s already excitable “Redhead” fans, and also Van Halen devotees. The Red Rocker is playing Pearl at the Palms on July 15, headlining with his band, The Circle, alongside bassist Michael Anthony, guitarist Vic Johnson and drummer Jason Bonham (tickets start at $59, not including fees, on sale 10 a.m. Baskow/Las Vegas Review Journal) might not be full circle, but Sammy Hagar is navigating his own raceway in VegasVille.

Rocker Sammy Hagar plays around on the Red Carpet for the Power of Love gala at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, Feb.
