As summer fades in the rear view mirror, Van Halen [ tickets ] continues to forge ahead with its first Sammy Hagar-fronted tour in almost a decade.

The group, which kicked off the reunion outing in June, has extended the run into mid-November. Tickets for most of the new shows are scheduled to hit the box office on Saturday (10/2), though a handful of the November stops are on sale now. Details are shown below.

Additional dates will be announced "shortly," according to the band's website.

The tour is the group's first with Hagar at the mic since its outing behind 1995's "Balance." A nasty breakup between Hagar and the other group members--guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alex Van Halen and bassist Michael Anthony--took place in 1996.

Late last year, Hagar--who had renewed his friendship with Anthony several years ago--patched things up with the Van Halen brothers. The reconciliation spawned the current reunion tour, as well as three new songs, all of which are included on "The Best of Both Worlds." The two-disc compilation also houses previously released cuts from the band's studio albums with Hagar and original singer David Lee Roth.

Two of the new tracks--"It's About Time" and "Up for Breakfast"--are streaming in their entirety via the album's online media player. The player also includes full-length versions of several of the collection's previously released cuts, and a clip of the third new song with Hagar, "Learning to See."

Earlier this month, Rhino Records issued the DVD version of Van Halen's 1986 concert film, "Live Without a Net." Previously, the set was available only in VHS format. More information is posted at the label's website.
