LOS ANGELES, March 18 (UPI) -- All 17 of Van Halen's postponed U.S. concert dates have been rescheduled, a message posted on the band's official Web site said.

The recently reunited rock group announced this month that their tour was being suspended and 17 shows were being postponed so guitarist Eddie Van Halen could continue medical tests.

The postponement announcement said the musician was "under doctors' care" and undergoing more tests "to define a course of treatment."

No other information about his condition had been offered.

The tour is now set to resume April 19 in Las Vegas and is scheduled to run through June 2 when the band will play their last show in Grand Rapids.
