Van Halen (Eruption) Charlottesville VA May 2, 2008

[nkscouting]

I was there. Van Halen was fantastic, but the sound mix on some of their songs just wasn't right. I mean, the crowd just overpowered the band. It was like trying

to listen to a wall of noise. I'm not sure what the answer is, but I'm glad I was there!

ed please take care of yourself, theres lots of us out here that love you, god bless!

[skirbyr]

[skirbyr]

does anybody know what pedal did he pressed on 0:55?

[matteson5150]

Im not sure dude, I know he used an ecoplex back in the day. Everytime I have seem him kick into a pedal its all one color with nothing on it and he has masking tape over it stating what he uses it for. The pedal he kicked just has Cathedral written on it. Ed is awesome!

[sxety35]

[machineou812]

[thegoodbadandweird69]

That was my favorite concert I've ever seen. I couldn't hear for a good hour afterwards

[Neptune737]

dude i was here, best show ive ever seen, and i also saw them at greensboro, both awesome shows. I wish he wouldve done 316 at this show. Oh well, this show was the best!

[Wisec4g]

I had exams during that that Friday through Wednesday, would have gone otherwise. :(

What happened to the Frakenstraat?

[fingerboarder656]

Wisec4g i dont think the original frankenstrat works any more or so i was told but he has replicas and he never used one in this consert. i was there but still a good show

[apassion4iron]

He buried it with dimebag.

[199191]

he buried his black and yellow (bumble bee) guitar with dime. he used his real frakenstein during this tour (Little Guitars and Jump). the replicas was used for sell

[bassplyr331]

[gnutsrocknroll]

[giantsfan729]

[allen70gto]

Glad you enjoyed it. Seeing them again made me feel like it was 1984 again. I loved the show. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it too. From one VH fan to another, enjoy...

[Yankees1JR]

Just went to the Raleigh concert last night, absolutely fantastic man, thanks for the vid of the latest version. Only thing I didn't like was the weird bridge part he did in the middle with the real instrumental tone and the echo, wasnt for me.

[lzymot]

Great vid, thanks for posting. It clear that Edward has cleaned his act up again. I know he's just repeating his old solo spot from the last 20 years but such a pleasure to hear him play so lucidly. Cathedral was a thing of beauty.
