LAS VEGAS, Feb. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- The Tiger Woods Foundation announced today that Tiger Jam XI presented by AT&T, will take place this year on Saturday, April 19 at The Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. Golf legend Tiger Woods will welcome rock icons VAN HALEN to Tiger Jam XI to help raise funds for the Tiger Woods Foundation and select Las Vegas-based charities.

Saturday evening's highlights will include top notch epicurean fare and exclusive live and silent auctions featuring unique items. Following the dinner and auctions, the celebration will progress to the Mandalay Bay Events Center stage, where Woods will introduce Eddie Van Halen, David Lee Roth, Alex Van Halen, and Wolfgang Van Halen for a rocking VAN HALEN concert.

"Tiger Jam XI will be incredible with VAN HALEN," Woods said. "I'm thrilled to have this amazing group of diverse musical talent coming together for such a great cause. VAN HALEN is one of my favorite bands, and I can't wait to see them perform on the Tiger Jam stage."

VAN HALEN is one of the most important and influential bands of all time. From the moment they released their self-titled 1978 debut album, VAN HALEN shook the foundations of rock, thanks largely to David Lee Roth's peerless showmanship, Eddie Van Halen's revolutionary guitar virtuosity and their songwriting abilities. The band's record of achievement is hard to top. Presented with two Diamond Award RIAA Certified Status' for their albums "Van Halen" and "1984", VAN HALEN joins an elite short list of two time Diamond Award honorees in the history of the music industry. The Diamond Award is presented to an artist for album sales of 10 million or more units.

They are also in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the most #1 hits on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart than any other band in history. Inducted into the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame in March of 2007, VAN HALEN has produced a treasured body of work that fans will admire for decades to come.
