  • Seeing them in April HELL YEAH

  • If this is a great version I wouldn't want to hear/see a shit one!

  • Is it me or is is Eddies playing terrible?

  • @Tricksterize Ed was still struggling with the bottle during the first couple legs of the tour before they shut it down for a month. Check out any of the shows on the last leg when they started back up in April-May 2008. Ed was on fire at the end of the tour.

  • @Tricksterize It's YOU!

  • Who's the fat kid?

    

  • @2skyland Eddie's son......

  • people need to stop complaining and just enjoy the music

  • eddie can play good. but david lee roth is back because he was needing cash and is still a arogant prick he thinks he is a rock god. I will listen to my CD's but won't support them with my hard earned dollar on a concert ticket

  • van halen is SWEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • soud suks!

    

  • Van Halen-----Used to be a kick ass band.

    what the hell is this? Pity

  • I still see that Roth is still flamboyant as hell and acting like a circus clown.Can't he just roll with the flow? He is an VH original and put out some kick ass tunes in the day but I believe Sammy Hagar is a much better front man.

  • Paneema.

  • Yeah it rocks, but I wanted to EV to use THE GUITAR, not the vanilla one.... :(

  • i totally fucked that up didnt i hahaha xD

  • @PhrygianKnight That gives me any excuse to dont it

  • AHAHA I cant wait to go AGAIN, Fkn VAN HALEN!!

  • DLR looks great, some botox, hair club for men and is in shape! Ultimate showman!

  • jelin

  • haha the cowboy hats on wolfie and eddie :) haha !

  • It's Pan- AH- ma U guyz!!!

  • reunion was WAY more than I could have hoped....so glad they are comin around again!

  • This guy could never sing

  • As usual dave trys to steal all the attention.. he has no talent any more.. saddd

  • @kayner5150 "tries to steal the attention" ? You just gave the job description of "lead singer" LOL

  • The money grab tour.

    Money grab 2 on the way...............hahahaah

  • David Lee come out of the closet already will ya

  • Gotta love it when dumbasses base their opinions on the sound of the band from bootleg audience filmed YouTube videos. No brains, no headaches!

  • The best pop band in the world

  • I can honestly say I love Sammy hagar era but I have so many good memories of the first 2 van halen albums that I love Dave too.

  • I saw VH in 1983 and seeing this is pretty pathetic. DLR is washed up in this show. He is just a goofy stage act now.  Wolfgang stinks. The 2 VH brothers are the only good ones in this band anymore.

  • @JRTrilling I agree 100% this is a fucking joke.... They were riding high with Sammy put out a great album Balance & then everything turned to shit... This is a joke of what was once a great band... All they are now are a bunch of old farts who just cashed in on a whole lot of suckers...

  • @JRTrilling I think Alex is the only good one left...

  • David Lee Roth. He goes from a great classic rock n roll band like Van Halen, to a lounge act in Vegas, and back to a anemic sounding version of the same band. Let's hope he sounds better on the new cd. Maybe he should think about taking a few vocal lessons. He's still thinking he's singing in lounges in Las Vegas casinoes. He's back in Van Halen, touring the world, to millions of fans. He better get his act together! DAVE! LOOK MANLY, WHY DON'T YOU!!!

  • The rythym section of Van Halen, the classic rock band from the 70's, and mid-80's, with David Lee Roth on lead vocals, had an awesome rythym section. Michael Anthony and Alex Van Halen were always in such fucking tight sync with eachother. It was their sound, their trademark sound. Wolfgang sucks compared to Michael. I can't wait to hear what the new album sounds like. They better do plenty of adjustments as far as the amps go to make it sound better, or it will sound horrible!

  • i always hated this song. i prefer the songs pre-"1984". "Unchained" is the most popular Van Halen song in history, by a poll done by Rolling Stone magazine. It's a better song than "panie-ma", as he's singing.  This was a horrible performance. I prefer the VH of old, anyway, pre-Sammy Hagar, when Dave was younger, had the long hair, did the famous "scream" he always did in concert. He can't do that anymore. Anyway, if Mike was in the band still, this would sound A LOT better! I

  • wait! listen at 2:05 is DLR really singing?!?!

  • edsbuzzed

    

  • Sammy van halen

  • Bring back Mike you assholes :-(

  • ill believe a new cd

    when i see it

  • Sounded good except the vocal on the chorus really irritated me - once upon a time it was pan- ahhh - ma and not pan-eee-mar... I'm guessing its easier to hit the e vowel than the a, where is the dude who used to sing all their choruses live?...

  • A lot of ppl say how they prefer Dave over Sammy, Im not one of them, I thought Sammy was and is, an amazing front man.Thats not to say I didnt like Dave, he was great in his time. Even the Dave supporters must agree tho, that the flamboyant front man of the 70s and 80s has gone

  • @sauser123 I'm sorry, I don't speak ignorance! Dave is back and the flamboyancy lives! So, SHUT IT!

  • david doesnt jump anymore?

  • I AM SOOOO Bummed!!! THIS VAN HALEN was supposed to play Adelaide-Australia this October[now passed] I Finally got to see em [with Gary Cherone] in 1998,,,,The FIRST Song was "Unchained"!!!! It was WOW after WOW after that.Eddie was SO "ON"! The unfortunately stupid Aussie[Im Australian] Crowd,didn't seem to know the songs!!!!! It was GREAT, the "set list" was nearly ALL the first 6 Albums[ALL ROTH!] Fantastic Concert!!! and only $50!!![Super low price for Australia] PLEASE Come Back!!

  • "its been 22 years, whadya expect?"....errr maybe try SINGING a song that you should know by now?! I wish Sammy all the best, like he said about the last Van Hagar break-up " I wish they had all taken it a little more seriously"

  • I watch videos like this and wonder how anyone can even start to compare DLR to Sammy?! Daves performance is TERRIBLE here, hes just tryng his best to shout his way thru this, vocal range, melody...not good. I just really hope that hes been working on his voice for this new record.

  • Great Version? Really? I supposed for falling down drunk Eddie almost can play it... and Wolfie playing more with the hat than the bass? Wow.. GREAT version... I could play this better with my teeth, and I'm not that good a guitarist! I wish I got to see Eddie stumble all over the stage and make crap noise with his guitar... wow.. that's cool

  • Pan-I-Ma? wtf

    

  • and just ease that seat back ..er...in..the shower...and reach ...down...betw..een..

  • Ah, Eddie is hogging all of the attention as always.

  • @mst882 its because dave roth looks like he is playing for the other team...;^)

  • @mst882 wow...that went over your head....lol

  • @mst882 and guess what....david fucking lee roth is...gay.if i were eddie and i dropped my pick...id let it lay there...lol

  • so van halen has a gay singer...they are still cool.

  • kendallsucks you need to get out more often

  • 0:20 ROCK!

  • i am so fucken jelis to peopel whe seen the fucken reunion tour

  • @5150jango5150 It was fucking phenomenal. A crowd cam can;t do the massive sound that was being produced justice. Still a bad ass vid though!!

  • @5150jango5150 omg im sooo jelis too! wait... what does jelis mean??

  • @5150jango5150 Your spelling makes my head hurt.

  • @5150jango5150 i was 9 when this tour came to seattle, born a rocker, i was determined to see them... during the show i started cryin cuz everytime eddie did a little solo he never did eruption but he eventually did:)

  • who are these hillbillies?

  • He's well into his 50s and his body makes a 17 year old jealous!

  • @dappling484 that's part of the Dutch genes man. Just like any race, some people age terribly some don't. But he looks better here then he did 10-12 years ago. Mainly because he stopped using. and also quit drinking.

  • no cabe duda que las verdaderas bandas son americanas e inglesas... asi se toca!!!!

  • My name is Kendall James Barnes and I approve this message:

    I have created yet another channel to talk to myself about myself. I am a homosexual. I am a closet gay. I truely love my animals but not in a conventional way.

    I was once in love with my wife. My love has turned to lust as she appears more and more like my dog.

    I cannot play guitar. Therefore, I insult all those who can.

    I would truely love for Eddie Van Halen to urinate on me so some of his skill might run down my face.

  • new album comes out this month. Who else is getting excited!?!?!?!?!?!

  • @Sean2592 this month..lol,you'd be lucky if its out in 2012...LMAO

  • @Pat9201 yep sources are saying maybe Feb. now. i guess Ed wants everything down pat before anyone gets there hands on it. i like the fact he's a perfectionist but damn it man come on

  • @Sean2592 we are all looking forward to it but ive been hearing (maybe) dates for far to long.

  • @Sean2592 REALLYY :O ???????

  • @Sean2592 Looks like its getting delayed :D

  • @Sean2592 too bad it didnt lol.

  • @Sean2592 we wish =/

  • "I'm building tension, how are we doing...?"...Dave you are the best

  • David Lee Roth is looking like Strangers With Candy in this.

  • He looks so different, and its hard to believe that this Eddie is the same Eddie from the clubs in the 70s, underneath all that hair and writing and playing the classics from Van Halen's glory days. So much younger then. He looks so different, changed so much and i dunno, but the playing just isn't the same. It's seems like he's not the same person. Break out the 1984 kramer /frankenstein again, light some shit on fire, and release the new album.

  • @vanhalen1975 Well that's a no brainer... it's been more than 30 years from the 70´s...of course he was much younger then ...find a pic from yourself in the 70's and tell me if you look younger now...

  • @sansfasonico

    Nah he's right, this shit is tired. VH has been doing the shit for over 30 years. This is one step over the CD version. its boring. Its just loud...it isn't fresh at all...

  • Eddie looks a lot like Phil Collen from Def Leppard...even though Eddie can wipe the floor with Phil

  • paneema????

  • they need to loose baby huey , he dont fit. Get mike back

  • 3:49...Wolfgangs telling Roth "Hey your singing the wroung song"

  • For being an old guy Eddies got some great vocals, and man he still got it.

  • Fucking love Roth.

  • OMG! OMG! OMG! He pointed at me! *Loud Girl Scream*

  • Dave S*CKS!!!!!!!!! They don't know how bad they sound without Sammy and Mike!!!!!! What the heck is he doing?!?! Sammy was so much better with the crowd. They should just call it the Eddie and Alex show.

  • @thes102 dave gets the crowd going 10 times better than sammy

  • Dave S*CKS!!!!!!!!!  They don't know how bad they sound without Sammy and Mike!!!!!!

  • panEEma?????? 

    WTF?????

  • nice jacket dave...fucking homo.

  • @Pat9201 so what if he is gay? The important thing is that he can sing? 

  • @ConservativeDK yes,he makes a fine studio singer.

  • Eddie is awsumm but his son is horrible bring mike back to the band

  • Michael Anthony,you are missed.Those harmonies are horrible!!!!

  • pretty cool

  • wolfpuke is a fat little lucky sperm squirt. bring back mike. enough of this fat pimple face dweeb. reminds me of stewart from beavis n butthead other than that van halen rocks...

  • too much ?bacdround noise? otherwise good,love Eddie for his guitar prowess. love DLR for his moxey. Unfortunately, no holding power. Eddie has it if he chooses to persue it , and Dave, u can always be my icexream man.

  • Ok pple we can say this tour sucked but ill be dammed if i say the 04 reunion was better eddie was a hell of a lot better here then 04 an yes MA is gone but hopefully he will be back when eddie gets straight

  • Doesn't Dave look a little like carol channing?

  • That was fucking great! Dave screws up and still makes it entertaining with his Improvisation. In Hagar s autobiography Sammy accuses him of being " all scripted" (sounds likes Jealous BS) This proves that Dave is not all scripted! Dave has a high I.Q and when he screws up, he recovers effortlessly. After 22 yrs of not playing together I would expect an occasional mistake. Every video that I have seen of this reunion is great!

    Dave Rules!!!

  • @stupidbomb1  Your homo devotion to Dave is......very homo.

  • @castletriglav

    Let me guess you are a lonely teenager that has no talents,hobbies, or friends to speak of, which would explain your empty channel and your empty-headed comments. You obviously have nothing better to do.

    BTW The chicken-foot album rocks, so does the new RHCP

  • @castletriglav so what enjoy the music it doesn't matter what he is?

  • Rubens Barichello singing with VH.

  • WHAT IS EDDIE SAYING AT 4:15????

  • greatest american rock band EVER!

    

  • Holy god...Im a

    Dave Guy......in the world of VH ... but this is bad bros...

    if I can add....Dave is so strugglin..like , it s 22 years past due...

  • i love mike anthony but i think this sounds great without him

  • BRING BACK BIG BAD MIKE.

  • awsome i love how he can forget the words and people still go crazy for him

  • Bring Mike Anthony back on bass....and rid of little Wolfe! Sorry ...just not the same! But....Anthony is having a great time and successful time with Satriani, and Sammy Hagar in CHICKENFOOT.

  • eddie is the best¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

  • pantyma ?? wtf?? lol

  • he just can't sing anymore.

  • This is great and all and I'm a big VH fan...but what is Dave doing during the verses...? Is that English?

  • VH fuckin get on in a studio please!!!

  • Itz always a great show, when the band iz Havin a GOODTIME Baby!!!!!

  • great to see David Lee ROTH!!!!!!!!! GET RID OF WOLFEEE FOR MICHAEL ANTHONY

  • great to see david lee

  • WANNA HEAR THE MOST INCREDIBLE GUITAR SOLO YOU HAVE EVER HEARD??????????? CLICK HERE!!!!

  • HAHA, DLR started singing a part from, "Aint talkin bout love". what the hell diamond dave

  • This is the worst I've ever heard david lee roth the guitar isn't bad though

  • Roth's voice sounds like ass. Eddie's fat son couldn't hold Michael Anthony's jock on bass or background vocals.

  • YEE HAW! EDDIE CAWBOY HAT ON!!!

  • I was at this show,and I remember people talking about how bad DLR's vocals were after the show. I openly stated to one guy who was complaining that he had obviously never heard VH back in the day,cuz say what u will about the 2007 MGM grand show DLR's vocals were 10 times better than the 1984 show I caught in the same city. Everyone within earshot unanamously agreed. He's a shitty singer, but that show was almost magical compared to stuff from the 80's eddie's playing and tone was way better a

  • interesting to see what there new album will be like, hopefully it wont be anything like this! or like their other version of jump on same night i think, not sure? they need a better bassist thats why dave stuffed up! they are supose to change chords to that build up thing and thats when dave starts singing! not like this?

  • they used to be way better ........ especially Roth..... oh well.........edds still got it

  • eddie van halen looks like an albino ethopian

  • @andrewvanrhoberts His mother is Indonesian.

  • i wish i have thath body after 20 fucking years...

  • AHAHAAHAHA van halen best progressive rock band forever

  • 4 words: DAVID "DIAMOND" LEE ROTH.

  • Comment removed

  • To the dude below me ... He's Sober now. Has been for awhile ... where have you been ?

  • That was just terrible.. it makes me sad to see what drugs and alcohol have done to my hero.. He will remain my hero in my heart, but is addictions have made him such a sloppy player and a total control freak. Think about it, there is a reason why a new Van Halen cd hasn't come out in? Exactly! most of us can't even answer that! He is consumed by ego and addictions. I wish only the best for him and hope that the fans get the old eddie back. An inspiration, a innovator and a genius. peace..

  • @decapitatedplaything for wich of them are you talking about my fella?

  • i grew up listening to van halen in the 80's. if eddie van halen wasnt such a control freak, they would all still be jamming together. i wonder if david lee roth had any idea at the time of this video that he was gonna get fucked again by the van halen brothers?

  • @mkeysou812 you're a fucking retard. that's all that i have to say.

  • roth is awful compared to sammy hagar, and john mayer plays this a bit better than eddie i think. to be fair though the fat bass player is an improvement on michael anthony, more stage presence and a better backing vocalist

  • Looks like the gay guy from Kids in the Hall ...oh yea, Scott Thompson, singing.

  • lol aint talkin interlude hahaha awesome!

  • mike had the charasma but wolfie holdin it down

  • eddie and wolfail..... if you eddie dont want the real bass player in the band. then fucking retire the band, this is just a joke!

  • Eddie and Wolfie!!! :)

  • I can't stand that little fat bastard at the bas. I used to like the other little fat bastard more.

  • @matteoprez

    One of the funniest comments read for a time - well done that man!

  • Kelsey Grammer from Frasier would be more suited to playing DLR in the movie. They are milking the 80's cash cow. These are terrible, ruining memories of an iconic, influential Rock band.

  • Man I miss Michael.

  • @MegaGreenman69 No Rhythm section ?

  • ahaha david lee roth might not have a great voice anymore, but he is a great frontman and u can see he is having one hell of a time :D

  • i went to see them durring this tour, t was great they are amazing. i hope wolfgang continues Van Halens legand

  • gary and sammy hit the dislike button 65 times

  • @pfcwar5150 69 so far....

  • @pfcwar5150 - Michael Anthony hit it the rest of the time...

  • @pfcwar5150 Awesome comment!

  • What a sad sight. Eddie can't play anymore, Roth is talking his way through the song, and Michael Anthony has been replaced by Eddie's one night of a drunken mistake Finklestien shit kid.

  • @thenoodler That was perfectly stated.

  • WOLFGANG!!!!!!!!

  • i don't know or care what went wrong between david lee roth and eddie van halen and/or the rest of the band. they had it when they were together. that kind of musical chemistry is something you shouldn't take for granted. it's too bad they couldn't keep it together. this performance only give a hint of what they might have been able to do together if they'd been able to resolve their differences. in my opinion, it was a big mistake for eddie to kick david out of the band so long ago.

  • "It's been 22 fking years.. What do you want from me? You're lucky I remember any of these motherfking words."

    haha. Diamond Dave is awesome.

  • What's all this bullshit talk about Eddie being "off" and Dave being "off" .... It's a fucking Van Halen Concert you stupid dick lickers....... Are you forgetting what brought us all here and why we go to concerts? Who gives a rats ass how wasted they are onstage, it's Van Fuckin Halen. And BTW, all you Wham and Culture Club lovers...... Sammy Sucks Moose Meat as the front man for VH.

  • Everyone makes good points here. But they do sound "off" and that is likely because Eddie is wasted. Period.

  • cool los años pasan el pelo se corta pero la ,usica mejora

  • Personally I like Sammy better, but DLR is awesome too. I just wish they'd bring Mike back.

  • Last time I checked Panama doesn't have an E in it...

  • That kinda sucked. I wonder what happened to Mike Anthony ??

  • does dave forget the words at 1:30? 

  • This SUCKS Eddie can't play like he use to Roth seems lost and the bass player is... well... you really need MIKE back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
