The World Invasion Tour was a 1980 concert tour by hard rock band Van Halen to support their third album "Women and Children First". It was dubbed the "Party 'til You Die Tour" by the band. The tour is notable for being the first time the band played keyboards live during their shows, as Michael Anthony would play the keyboard parts of "And the Cradle Will Rock...."
