when i saw the video of the us festival and they opened with this, i knew right then they blew every other band away, what a song, this song has so much energy and great lyrics by dave, not enough words to describe how good this song is
I have a question. it's almost Christmas and I'm shopping around for an amplifier. There is this Peavey Vypyr tube 60 that I found for $450 and a friend of mine is offering me a Line 6 spider jam with the fbv mkii pedal. what would you recommend for stuff like VH, ratt, Don Dokken, classic rock, SRV, clapton, hendrix, and 80's hair metal stuff?
@codyjt5150 I know Christmas has come and gone but if you are really concerned about amps, you should really look into different amps and not settle on one until you really like the sound. Don't ask for advice just go with your ear, if you like it, then buy it. When it comes to sound or style, don't ask anyone for advice, your sound is what makes you different from everyone else. Keep playing and rock and roll!
@jameszen2020 Yea I did that, but I already bought my amp. 2 weeks ago. I went with the tube 60. and it has to be the best bedroom amp on the planet. :D
Love this song. A lot of what you play are my favorite VH songs. All the unpopular songs that got no radio play are the ones I like which I think are their best work. Great job on Romeo Delight!
Satch...GREAT JOB! Looked and sounded hot man. Reminded me of an old 80's video by a Canadian band called Triumph and the song was "Follow Your Heart". They had a cam angle down the neck like your's and it was pretty wild then. Thanks for posting and keep up the great work dude!
Hey Satch, great stuff. I've been looking for the full TAB for this song but all there is on the net is the first 20 seconds. Do you know where I can get the tab for the complete song. Let me know and rock on brother!
Saw ur other VH vids; incredible sound/technique. Also saw ur Metal Force 5 vid..very cool production. I noticed ur using a Line 6 amp; getting this amp soon and was wondering how you dialed in the VH settings on the amp. Thanks
well on the one my instructor has theres an atomic punk setting and all he does is turn off the flange and the phazer and echo and boom u got a VH1 sound line sound great
no complaints, apart from the fact I'm hoping this wasn't done on a les paul (les pauls r great, but massively overrated) - maybe an ibanez, jackson, or prs would be an intelligent choice
Damn !! 1:41-1:46 ......im speechless...that was a nice fill of your own - love that "boogie" feel. Dude,.....what am I doing watching these vids, I SHOULD BE PRACTICING !! Damn !!!
JESUS.........FUCKIN'.........CHRIST.........ya nailed this motherfucker, bro!
What planet were you born? Must be some distant world where everyone plays guitar..........the same planet where Eddie Van Halen is Supreme Chancellor of the High Command and you are his loyal apprentice...........FUCK !!
That is,hands down, the absolute best "Romeo Delight" cover I've heard(and I've heard alot.) I feel like I'm back at the Aragon Ballroom-Chicago 1980. VH was larger than life in those days. My God Dude, thanks for the "time warp". KEEP ON SHREDDIN'
instead of the same old thing here where i say how fuckin floored i am every single time i hear/watch u play and just generally stunned at your talent, i will say this ----
hah women and children first WACF looks like Wack off they should have done women and children off first or something with o so it said wacof... awesome cover btw
Sick as hell again!!! Love the part at 2:29, reminds me of that part of Light up the Sky. Are you using any preset of the spider or is it you own tweak? Is it the Spider valve???
hey satch,these veiws are the best!.i liked the fact that we could even see you use the pedal.thanks bro for taking the time to post these video's.this is the best playing on you tube,you crush rock stars into dust!!!.
Is that a Line 6 XT pro as your foot pedal..??? I test drove one off those and couldn't get a good sound through a amp to save my life.. so I took it back.. if it is .. my hat is off to ya..!!!
this tune is a disater waiting to happen for me lol its fast and furious. but i barely made it through. this is Valerie's fave VH tune haha she has good taste
valerie was like the yoko ono of van halen lol ... sometimes its hard to think of things to say that i havent already said about your videos so i will sum it up with one word - WOW
