The first definitive biography of the ultimate American rock band.
With over 75 million albums sold to date, Van Halen ranks among the most wildly successful bands in rock. Now, for the first time, Ian Christe presents Van Halen’s complete uncensored story, detailing the misfit childhoods, sibling rivalries, tour exploits, tabloid snoops, divorces, bitter band break-ups, long-term substance abuse, and harrowing brushes with cancer. Now with their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and news of a reunion tour making headlines in 2007, Everybody Wants Some brings the saga of Van Halen–from young lions to troubled monarchs–in all of its exuberant, decadent, vulnerable, and awesome dimensions.
