Van Halen tribute PANAMA is the brainchild of front man Ric D'Rose, who was inspired to form a tribute to one of the greatest rock bands in American history — early Van Halen. The members of PANAMA recreate with great detail and energy the early Van Halen concert experience from 1979 to 1984. D'Rose's impersonation of David Lee Roth is spot on, with Roth's signature scream, blonde mane, stage acrobatics, flamboyant costumes, and party persona. The lineup features Tony Fondale as Eddie Van Halen. PANAMA has performed at numerous venues throughout the Midwest and is quickly becoming a fan favorite in the tribute industry.
