About this Event

Completely Unchained is the quintessential Van Halen tribute band, offering an unparalleled experience that captures the raw energy and spirit of the legendary rock group. Every member of Completely Unchained is a phenomenal musician, and together, they recreate the magic of Van Halen with astounding accuracy and passion.

Gene Hendrikson as the frontman and lead vocalist brings David Lee Roth‘s iconic stage presence to life. His powerful vocals, dynamic energy, and charismatic personality make every performance electrifying, capturing the essence of the original Van Halen frontman.

Jake Miller on guitar channels the virtuosity and creativity of Eddie Van Halen. His mastery of the guitar is evident in every riff and solo, replicating Eddie’s innovative techniques and signature sound with incredible precision. Watching Jake play is like witnessing the magic of Eddie Van Halen all over again.

Clint Ettore on bass holds down the low end with the same groove and intensity that made Michael Anthony‘s playing so essential to Van Halen’s sound. Clint’s bass lines are not just accurate but delivered with the same energy and enthusiasm that defined the original performances.

Tim DiDuro on drums brings the thunderous beats and complex rhythms of Alex Van Halen to the stage. His drumming is powerful and precise, driving the band’s performance with the same relentless energy and skill that made Alex’s drumming legendary.

The band’s attention to detail is extraordinary, from their musicianship to their stage presence and even their wardrobe. Completely Unchained doesn’t just play Van Halen’s music—they embody it, delivering a
full-scale concert experience that transports fans back to the height of Van Halen’s glory days.

Their setlists include all the classics, from “Jump” and “Panama” to “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love” and “Hot for Teacher,” as well as deep cuts that true fans will appreciate. Each song is performed with the same intensity and passion that Van Halen brought to their live shows, making every concert an unforgettable experience.

I make it a point to travel to see Completely Unchained whenever possible, regardless of the distance. Their shows are always high-octane and full of energy, leaving fans exhilarated and craving more. The authenticity and dedication they bring to their performances ensure that they never disappoint.

Whether they are playing in a large venue or a more intimate club setting, Completely Unchained delivers an electrifying performance that pays the highest tribute to Van Halen. For any fan of Van Halen, attending a Completely Unchained show is an absolute must—it’s the closest you can get to seeing the real Van Halen live.
