I was at this show and I saw Dave in 2002. Dave sounded better here and strangely enough looked younger (PS most likely) - either way both were good, but this was great
I was at this show. The reason Anthony was never asked to play was because he left to play with Sammy Hagar. The two tours were concurrent and on opposite sides of the states.
eddie got pissed off because mike was playing with sammy hagar , its not like he said YOUR OUT OF THE BAND MY SON IS COMING IN NOW ..he just never called him or spoke to him since the tour in 05
Great video, thanks! the added enjoyment/laugh was the dude in the audience yelling "baby please can't take it anymore". Rock on, VH, and rock on, Van Halen Fans, whomever you are!!!
1 hit 2 hits it's not the point. The point is that you all debate it and that is what makes them as great as they are. How many bands have this strong of a legacy. NOT MANY PERIOD
"I think Roth's fucking washed. If Dave comes back, it's going to be the ugliest reunion in the history of rock 'n' roll. I mean, with "Running With the Devil" and "Jump," people would have been happy for about twenty minutes. But then they would have said, "Okay, what about 'Why Can't This Be Love'? What about 'Dreams'?" - Sammy Hagar
Yeah right, Roth had at least 2 hits on every album, hagar was lucky to get one big hit, ask anybody about van halen, 1st songs, guarrenteed, are jump, really got me, running with the devil, dance the night away, not hagar's hits. I'm curious if they're goign to play any hagar, it would be cool to hear roth sing some of his stuff
Dude this is the dumbest post I have ever read. I saw the show Roth was on top of his game. Sammy Hagar who, no one wants to hear, or even cares about that whole era that David Lee Roth was not part of. Wake up man reality is calling.
ROTH-ON baby! What a breath of fresh air not to hear that constipated sounding voice from hagar the horrible....woooo-hooooooooooooo! Can't wait for the new CD!
I remember watching the last rehearsal performance of this song. Not only is it a classic tune, it reminds all the people who grew up on Van Hagar, that Van Halen was a great hard rock band. Just Fucking awesome!
Whatever happened with Mikey, be it he wasn't cotacted or he said he wouldn't be open to a tour with Dave. Either way they do not need a 2nd guitarist. :)

I would have liked to see Micheal Anthony. Dave is just great with Halen. Less animated then in the past. Maybe as the door progress'....

I'd feel the same but why kick Mike out of the band,They could've just added Wolfie as a socond guitarist.

2nd guitarist? NEVER. Mike wanted nothing to do with touring with Roth. So Eddie & Alex said fuck it... Wolfie will play Bass. :)
Sideler74 4 years ago
Not true, Mike never was contacted by VH. He took less money to tour with the 2004 reunion with Hagar, why would he decline with Roth?

No he doesn't but it would be better than replacing Mike,get your facts strait qautodog is right he was never contacted about the tour with dave
