  • Roth has finally come out of the closet on this tour. Putting that aside, he'll never fit into the jock strap of Sammy Haggar!

  • I was at this show!! Loved it!!! I hope they tour again very soon. Diamond Dave rules!!!

  • Y'know, I'd probably like Wolfgang Van Halen more if he had some damn stage presence!

  • No Mike.... only 3/4 REAL Van Halen

  • there is more van halens in the band now!!

  • I was at this concert!! Totally awesome! I hope when Eddie returns from his honeymoon that they get grooving on a new cd. Hope they tour, too!

  • I know this is sacrilege to even bring it up but Dave sounds a little like Sammy at the beginning.

  • this song explain the 80's, gotta love Van Halen

  • THis is the real thing, the original line up. The show must go on!!! Viva Van Halen!!!

  • I love this vid. I wish I could have seen them live.

  • wtf at least VAN HALEn is giving u something and people learn how to apreciate that

  • wow eddies not even playing the real frankenstrat, but one of those fender custom shop replicas

  • These guys were great that night. Wish I could've seen them in Philly, now I'm seeing them in Boardwalk Hall, NJ. Who knows, maybe they'll do really good in NJ.

  • Sure they will be.

  • pay 100 bucks here a guy play totally out a tune. django reinhardt still and always rules

  • jelous eh?

    like u can do better?

  • I just got back from the show last night~!!! Tampa, FL~!!!!

  • If you're talking about Eddie, no he's not out of tune. I play guitar, and I know out of tune when I hear it, and everything sounds good to me, so fuck you.

  • it's a total happy ending to the van halen story*

  • Van freakin Halen! Eddie can shred and Dave can twirl-that's my Van Halen.

  • JUMPPPP!!!

  • yeah

    i was at this same show too

    i pissed myself when the curtain

    dropped and they started

    YOU REALLY GOT ME

    i totally agree with you paulsav5

  • i was at this show and this video and sound with it does not do the concert any justice... this was an amazing show

  • That was awesome when Eddie gave his son a kiss on the forehead before they parted ways and started tearing up the stage.That right there is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time and that totally shows family is tops in every aspect of life and life style.Thank you for sharing this video with me.This has made my night.Van Halen Rocks.

  • you notice that eddie uses the frankenstrat on the 10/3 and he didnt on 10/1 cuz it sounded ass

  • I went to see them 10/24/07 and he switched guitars about 10 times, so maybe you didn't notice it when he was, cuz when I saw them he used the Frankenstrat a few times.

  • What more do you people want? Honestly, the world is full of people just ready to hate on anyone who does anything? Van Halen 2007 is amazing, and put on a better show than anyone else you could go see right now.

  • This is too futuristic, and Dave looks like he should be holding a hoop on fire with tigers "jumping" through it!!!

  • I just saw them in Montreal Nov. 10, 2007 and "JUMP" sucks big time! The Keyboard mix in the song is really off, I don't even believe that the mix was playing the right notes for how bad it sounded. Overall the concert was great except for "JUMP". FIX THE MIX BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • It was tuned differently douchebag. The song was written in D sharp originally, but they played it in Standard E. IT was fine. A spectacular performance. The boys did good. I can't say im too happy about having Micheal Anthony on the side lines, but Wolfgang did a good job and it provided a father and son theme, which personally was cool as me and my old man are both VH fans and it was a good show for us! Jump!

  • Who you calling douche you FAG! I said the song sounded awful because the keyboard mix and Eddie weren't in the same key. So it sounded like a huge mess. What's your problem woman?

  • knock it off before I put both of you in the time out corner.

  • I saw the tour night 2 in Detroit, these guys still got it. The videos don't do justice. I will say though that Jump was not as good as it should have been. Pretty much everything else hit though.

  • Whoever decided to bring them back, should have given thought to David Lee Roths voice, and their image. He's out of tune and they look like soap opera pretty boys... its like seeing an Caucasian with an speaking fluent Asian - the look doesn't match the sound. I'm not a fan of Van Halen - Redux

  • "its like seeing an Caucasian with an speaking fluent Asian"

    Didn't do well in english and grammar classes eh?

  • Dammit! lol. I originally typed 'with an Asian accent' and apparently only changed part of it to 'speaking fluent Asian.'

    ...should read Caucasian speaking fluent Asian.

    Shit... somebody delete this mess.

  • they are coming to toronto and i gots tickets yeah

  • oh, whoops, i guess they DIDN'T mean to do that. no diss on DLR, in my opinion, he's the ONLY lead singer of van halen. spammy...hehehe....

  • did they forget to tell eddie they had to pitch the song up for dave's voice? oops!

  • Man! they are back!!!!!!! VAN HALEN!!!!!!

  • o! eddie can play his legendary guitar with wireless there and insted in NC, He plays with a cord and uses a gibson les paul!

  • cant wait for vancouver on dec

  • VAN HALEN, VAN HALEN 2, WOMEN AND CHILDREN 1ST, FAIR WARNING, DIVER DOWN, 1984=ANYTHING

    AFTER SUCKS (SAMMY HAGAR). WELL, 5150 WAS JUST OK. All you pussies crying "its not the original VH" or "they were better with Sammy Hagar" STFU....Hagar has a great voice, but who gives a shit. His lyrics blow. When I wanna here real rock and roll, its "Ain t Talkin bout Love "....not, " Love Comes Walkin In" bullshit.

  • for a 39 yo you talk like like an idiotic 8th grader.

  • Eddie is out of tune and there is something wrong with his guitar playing....

    Don't reply to me and say it's something eles like DLR or a back track its the GUITARIST. I've heard versions from other live performances.

  • The synth is in C#, but Eddie's guitar is tuned for him to play the solo in C.

    Oops.

  • I guess I'll digress on Eddies playing

  • Someone got there ass full of brown M&Ms for that screw up.

  • why doesnt eddie use a wireless system for his guitar ?

  • I hope David doesn't wear the policeman hat at the Vancouver show, its too reminiscent of the Village People !

  • Well Van Halen is on their way to Detroit. Can't wait to see them at the Joe!! It's a nice little road trip from Toledo.

  • DLR looks so lonely onstage, the Van Halens seem to be almost ignoring him.

  • Eddie did not want to get hit in the head with the staff. DLR loves to show off his martial arts skills on stage.

  • and by the way if it was pre-taped and something went wrong, everthing would have to stop. remember waht happened to milly vanilly... you ignorant dick

  • its pretaped according to sources from the van halen camp. It was also pre-taped in the 04 tour and every other tour after 5150. which was the last time ed played the keyboard for songs like WCTBL.

  • The keys are a backing track. Common practice for many touring bands. The backing tracks are synced up with a click track (metronome). The drummer (sometimes everyone) has in ear monitors with the click track in them. It keeps them perfectly on time, and allows the syncing of tracks. You'd be surprised how many bands do this, national and local, in fact.

  • bluballs, i am saying that listening to david lee roth sickens me. sammy hagar was the best rock vocalist of all times. and without michael anthony up there, how can you even call it van halen. it is nothing but a freak show, i have seen it with my own eyes and was not at all impressed

  • dvdcollector, that is pretty much what you are, because you obviously do not know shit about music, i have been to the show and seen it with my own eyes. so just go back to watchin the t.v.

  • david lee roth may not have talent, but he was a huge part of van halen's popularity and there's no one else i'd rather have up there singing with them.

  • they have a keboard player that is behing the stage. see the cool thing is is that when sammy was with them, eddie played the keyboard and sammy played guitar. but since dlr has no talent, that can't happen anymore

  • watch every video of sammy doing jump with them, eddie plays guitar, and no one is behind the stage, it's pretaped. the only time eddie played jump on the keyboard live was the 1984 tour, with david lee roth, fuckin idiot

  • I'll still take Dave and his great songs over Spammy and his Love songs!!

  • I apologize in advance if this is a dumb question, but who's playing the keyboards if Eddie isn't? Is it pre-taped?

  • is the shitest!!!!!

  • I just saw the Cleveland show-AWESOME!!!!!!!!

    I love Van Halen again!!!!!!!!

  • Thanks for the vid man. sun 14 Indianapolis Ill be there!

  • I was at this concert in the nose bleed section where everyone was smoking :) Traffic was horrible that day mainly because the phillys fans were leaving the citizens bank park the same time everyone was coming for the concert.

  • unfuckinbelievable

  • Please come to UK

  • Please come to sweden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • please come to turkey =\

  • uhmmm...like...i dont think sooo!!!

  • Please Come to Japan!

  • Funny but true story...I saw Dave solo back in '99...he was playing a bunch of Halen songs and the 20-somethings in the audience were seated and didnt have a clue who this guy onstage was....then Dave sings "Jump" as his final song and he had the entire crowd fist-pumpin' and cheering louder than fuck! Big shit-eatin grins all over that place. That's why Dave is the real Van Halen!!!!

  • i dont like the higher key,octave,step,chord(whatever its called,im a drummer)but hey whatever works.lol,wolf gets loose at 3:30 on....the weight is lifted off my shoulders for another night he says.

  • It's higher key ;)

  • thanks......

  • even though i hate this song they sound alright, too bad wolfie's faking playing. he should have faked the keyboard playing and made himself look like a music genius.

  • You're getting on my nerves, bub....dont make me unleash hell on you....you had "fair warning"!

  • It's soooo nice to see then having fun while sounding this good. Ed and Dave figured out that they must need each other, it's about time!!!!

  • sooo wheres Sammy...o yeah, gettin rotten in hell muahahahahah w/Anthony

  • Thanks for posting this.

  • Great to see father and son on stage. I bet Eddie is very proud. Best wishes!

  • I don't see ANYTHING wrong with Wolfie.....he's definitely loosening up and having a great time. He goes over to his dad and plays around with him during tunes. He's movin around more onstage. I like at the end of this he's just randomly screamin "JUMP" on every microphone!! AWESOME!

  • At 3:13, Dave is no where near a mic but you hear the scream--or please tell me that was Eddie!!! Please, Dave, don't let this be fake!!!

  • Dude it was CLEARLY Eddie that screamed. This ain't fake bro. Shame on you.

  • Sorry man! I guess I'm still just reeling from how good all of this is. Dave never sounded so good when I've seen him live. I have my Saint Louis ticket and I'm ready to go!

  • Right on. I'm goin to the Madison Square Garden NYC. Hope they keep this up!

  • damn Wolfie is gettin looser, cant wait for Dec in Oakland by then he should be a PRO!!!in the stage and maybe a solo bass-spot

  • I WAS THERE> F*CKING GREAT NIGHT

  • Fuck yeah it was awesome! I had hairs on my arms standing up the whole time. It's beginning to scare me how much better the band sounds with every gig. I already got tix for Cleveland and Chicago....VAN HALEN IS KICKIN ASS ALL OVER AMERICA!!!

  • Sound man should be shot in the fucking head. The mix is terrible.

  • eddies what like 50 something and wolfie is 16/17 ed's bouncing all around sweating getting a workout. c'mon wolf let's break a sweat here kid.

  • I was there, and as someone who has been critical of Ed, he sounded fantastic. The best I've ever seen him live was on the 98 tour. This will be the second best that I've seen him play. He nailed it and played like Eddie Van Halen should.

  • I saw Ed play on the '98 tour at 2 shows and it was far sloppier than the way he is playing on this tour. I would say rehab did a world of good...Ed is playing like a genius on fire again...it really feels like 1984 all over again!!

  • Tell that to the 20,000 screaming fans......

  • Words cannot express how terrible this is. Some of the new VH clips are ok (especially Dave) but this sounds like SHIT. Embarrassing guitar...he's gotta be drunk again. Drums are good. Wolfgang is faking playing bass...he's playing to a track. Watch his hands. Notes appear when he does NOTHING; when he hits the strings sometimes nothing is heard; his hand positions are completely wrong more than half the time. Absolutely lame.

  • he's sober buddy. And his playing was 10x better than the 04 tour. And I was at both philly shows in 04. He sounded rather weak then. Besides the audio is in 16bit mono so saying he sounds like crap isn't really valid.

  • I fully agree...I saw Ed play in '98 and he was decent but didnt seem inspired at all.....saw him again in 2004 and was an embarassing drunk....I saw them in Philly on 10-1-07 and ED IS A FUCKIN' GUITAR GOD AGAIN! Whatever he did in rehab, it worked because he seems like a guy who loves playing music again...

  • Does the shaky camera have anything do do with that? How about the sound? Was it caught on a hand-held camera? Yes... I'm curious, how can you tell?

  • because its my camera and its rather hard toi hold a camera over the heads of people that are as tall as me.

  • Agreed. Van Halen-Redux is just bad all around. I'm not shooting them down, but face it, what they used to do and what they're doing, just don't compare. Contrary to public opinion here, I don't think they've still got it. The new look is lame, the sounds are off, and they're pulling a 'milli vanilli' on some of the tracks.

  • Have you seen them live on this tour? The videos don't do them credit. They sounded way better live, and they sound pretty good here. I agree, they aren't Young Van Halen, but neither were they with Hagar. They're way better now then they've been since like 1984...
