(Reuters) - Veteran rockers Van Halen said on Friday that they will kick off a North American tour with original lead singer David Lee Roth in mid-February, shortly after the release of the band's first full album with Roth in nearly 30 years.

''A Different Kind of Truth'' will be released in the United States on Feb 7 but the first single, ''Tattoo,'' and its accompanying video, will debut on Jan 10. Roth's last album with the group was the popular ''1984,'' released on Dec 31, 1983.
