David Lee Roth tour cancellations

Entities: Park MGM (Dolby Live) · TEDxFargo · Robert Vargas · David Lee Roth · Michael Anthony

Overview

In late July 2026, David Lee Roth removed all but one of the remaining dates from his U.S. "Don’t Love Me, Rent Me" tour, leaving only a performance at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally on August 7. No official reason was given, and media outlets speculated about low ticket sales or possible health concerns.

Former Van Halen vocalist Sammy Hagar responded with a video message expressing sympathy and offered Roth a spot in his own Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live. Hagar’s invitation, announced a few days later, suggested Roth could sing or host shows during the September run of the residency, hinting at a possible easing of their historic rivalry.
