  14. 73 Post-breakup (1997–2003) Gary Cherone: Van Halen and other projects

    On the recommendation of former Extreme manager Ray Danniels, in 1996, Gary Cherone joined one of the world's most successful rock acts, Van Halen. During 1996, Van Halen's fan-base weathered the acrimonious departures of two of rock's most successful lead singers: first Sammy Hagar, who had fronted Van Halen since 1985, and then David Lee Roth, the band's original frontman, (1974-1985). Into this fractious, and very public situation entered Cherone, whom guitarist Eddie Van Halen later called a “musical soulmate.” In 1998, the Cherone-fronted Van Halen released Van Halen III.

  15. 74 Extreme reformed for a short tour in 2004 playing

After a hiatus during 2005, the band returned in 2006 with the “classic” Pornograffitti line-up to do a small, three-show reunion tour through New England. In July 2007 Bettencourt quit Satellite Party for the definite Extreme reunion with Gary Cherone and Pat Badger. On November 26, 2007, the band announced plans for a world tour in the summer of 2008 with King's X as well as a release date for their new album, Saudades de Rock, produced by Bettencourt. Kevin Figueiredo, who played with Bettencourt in DramaGods and Satellite Party, took over drum duties for the band. Original drummer Paul Geary would still remain involved with the band, albeit in a management position. Typeface: Brandon Text
