Van Halen's back huh?Nice to see that we still have jobs for the old and senile! Dave reminds me of a 90 year old in front of a retirement home rambling about the good old days.
This may be the "bootleg" version, or the version from the demo produced by Gene Simmons, but it does appear on the "new" album. I am a VH fan, seen them several times, will buy the CD. But, much of it is reworked, rehashed, older material. That isn't a bad thing. Unless you have had it for decades already. Then, it kinda sucks. But, DAVE IS BACK. And that ain't half-bad.
@gsoltis29 actually this song pre dates mean street.... check out VH's 77 warner demo "firestarter" and their gene simmons produced demo from way back in 76!!! practically their whole new albums on their!!~! just diff lyrics, like you say....
@terrormonkey1 I must admit I was very confused by this.....I did some reading over the weekend and did find out about what is going on with this. Thanks for the tip - I have heard some of that demo years ago. I just did not realize this was from that. I hate the net sometimes....you can never believe anything you see :)
omg this is garbage! someone needs to tell these guys that the 80's is over and this music cant even be qualified as that. jesus. and to the sammy hagar haters.....THIS SONG PROVES HE WAS RIGHT! lol at least he and Michael Anthony can still sell records lmao
@cmoulder3157 first of all.... this song pre dates the eighties dickless, by a few years.. secondly.. IT KICKS SERIOUS ASS!! and who the fuck says great music is over???!!! YOU?!? u really think anyone gives a monkey fart what u think? we will see who laughs last numb nuts... real music aint quite dead just yet!! here we go again motherfuckers!!! YEEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!
@TrashBlaster SHUT THE FUCK UP! this band has forgotten more about REAL music then a dickless piece of shit like you could learn in a thousand lifetimes....
Love both Chickenfoot and Van Halen. Love both DLR and Sammy. Love Van Hagar and Van Halen. With respect to all involved the old VH music holds up better for me. By the same token I think Sammy's voice has survived better. Own the latest Chickenfoot and looking forward to this new Van Halen music as well. People just need to chill and enjoy what they enjoy. Last I knew ALL Van Halen music was fun party music not some thrash fist fight bull crap.
@SuperSrooney I totally agree.. Couldn't say it any better. I'm also hoping we get a chance to see how well wolfie is delevoping as a musican. Watching these videos coming from Cafe Wha. I gotta say, this kid is pretty damn good. He's a hell of drummer as well.
@SuperSrooney Let's face it, who wouldn't want to see Van Halen and Chickenfoot on tour together. Think about them trying to out-do each other. What a show that would be for the fans!
Mike Anthony was against Dave coming back in 1996 (even more so than the VH bros were) and backed Gary Cherone. He is Sammy's buddy and would be a wedge between Ed and Dave. There is *NO* place in Van Halen for a Sammy Hagar stooge and someone who is anti-DLR.
Buh-bye, Mike! Enjoy your chosen "career" playing dive-bars with your beloved Spammy!
@robertanthony975 You do realize this recording is over 30 years old, don't you? This is not the same version they played at the Cafe Wha show. The new version doesn't have the "Mean Street" breakdown in it.
Wow what a letdown. The break at 1:20 is from "Mean Streets" off 'Fair Warning'. Ed we love you man, but you need to spend several hours a day in your studio just practicing and work on your chops. Doug Aldrich, George Lynch, John 5 (Lowery), Neal Schon and Paul Golbert can all shred and have something to say. C'mon bud, get the passion back! We love you dude!
Folks, this is misleading. What you're hearing here is not a recent recording. This is from an old Van Halen bootleg from the 70's. It's obvious since Michael Anthony can be heard singing background vocals.
@TedwardsTube yeah thats true, but their whole new album is gonna be mostly re-working of their old 70's demos which were never put out, just with new lyrics in some cases...
ATTN @MRVHWOLF slash, jimmy page, richie blackmore, JIMI HENDRIX, and joe satriani couldn't hold eddie van halen's guitar pick, he is to guitar what a heartbeat is to the human body (MOST IMPORTANT)
Not really fair to compare Page, Blackmore, or Hendrix to Eddie as, without those three guitar players, Eddie's style may have never emerged. It's the same thing I said to @MRVHWOLF about Satch and Vai; they're technically superior players to Eddie, but, without him, their styles would be drastically different. Artists, in general, should be compared to their peers, not the people they influenced down the road, as those people will almost always find a way to improve upon them.
@horrorview dont forget clapton dude... eddie was apparently a huge clapton disciple... you can hear the speeded up blues runs in the first and second albums (not the tappy stuff but the pentatonics....)
There will always be the haters... weather its sammy, gary, dave, mike, wolfgang... how about we take it for what it is, and not focus on what it is not...???? Dave is fun!!! .. wolfgang can play.. there STILL a kick ass rock n roll band... ill bet ya haters this much.. your rock band never accomplished anything much, let alone wrote songs heard and enjoyed around the world.. so be positive and glad Daves back... or shut up and dont buy the new rocord.... hows them apples???
Ummm.. This is NOT VH live from the other night. It is a demo from '77 or '78. Don't believe me? check the live vids from last week - The solo section is different and this one is identical to "Mean Street". What is this BS anyway?!!
This song sucks. Eddie's guitar work is always good, but this sounds very dated. DLR voice has never been strong, here's a example. A lot of these riffs were used in other songs.
@oldfilmless LOL! u know fuck all... this IS a dated recording numb nuts.. somebody posted it wrong... DLR's voice is no where near as strong as mr Hagars... its just alot less GAY! hahahahahahahaha! VH forever!!!
@mesarock2vh AFTER 28 FUCKING YEARS AND THEY PUT SHES THE THE WOMAN ON THE ALBUM A 32 year old song ARE YOU JOKING??????They should put out a double album but they dont give a shit about their fans.I LIKE TO PUNCH EDDIE RIGHT IN THE TEETH WHERE IS HIS 50 ALBUMS WORTH OF MATERIAL?
@SKEMaster15 u know it dude... evn if DLR just come out and is sick on the stage and eddie just farts into his amp, it'll still be ten time more melodic and soulfull then the vacuous, dreary, fake "r and b" image driven bullshit the poor kids got these days!!!
Van Halen has always dug into previous demos to make new songs. Remember "House of Pain" on 1984 was 8 years old at that point. Remember in 1991 when they did "Top of the World" with a recycled riff from "Jump" 7 years earlier.... so the argument they can't write together blah blah blah is bullsh!t.. I'll be all over the US watching this tour..
@KTVBOSTON you know it dude... was anyone their in 19th century germany saying "that beethoven's used that phrase and theme from the another symthony!! what a charlatan!!!" hell no!! its just another sign of true genius... it takes time baby! and the good time are back!!! yeah!
Well he is my outlook on this........they still can't get a long to rite new shit so they have to pull shit out from the past to make a album......and oh by the way just remember how bad VH3 was oh thats right no one bought it....lol and chickenfoot is a way better band so you eddie van halen fans can suck my ass !!!!!!!!
@miller4life1 CHICKENLIPS or CHICKENSHIT or whatever it's called, SUCKS! Nobody ever has or ever will get the sound Van Halen gets.....Spammy can get the best players he can find and it will still just sound like polished party rock......Ed and Al ARE the difference, and i'm so glad Dave is back in...go to hell with all of your shit talk Sammy!! SUCK OUR COLLECTIVE ASSES "miller4life"!!
@miller4life1 "chickenfoot are better than Van Halen" are u a string theorist, cuz a got no fuckin clue what alternate universe your dumb ass sprang from, but i wish you would just make another quantum leap asap! the only reason michael anthony is in chickenfuck is because (wait for it!!) he was the bassist in VH! no band has touched the orig VH since 78. FACT! WHO GIVE A FUCK WHOS ON BASS! wud be nice to have his high backing voice but i'l wipe my tears on my new VH album feb 7th!
This is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just heard "tattoo" too, and I'm sold -- this band is gonna conquer the world with this... It's excellent.
@MrVHWolf Well when they fired Roth, Roth found a better guitar player known as Steve Vai and when the fired Sammy, Sammy found a better guitar player known as Satch(Joe Satriani) both of who blow Eddie away on guitar hands down.
@fishinman2009 Vai and Satch are both technically superior guitar players, no doubt, but Eddie obviously paved the way for their respective styles, thus, historically, he's the one who'll be remembered for his contribution to music. No disrespect, of course. As a guitarist, myself, with over 30 years of playing time under his rapidly expanding belt, I know how good those two guys are! Trust me; I've tried to play their stuff! LOL
@fishinman2009 Im voting, Im in! Vai is the most talented, most stunning guitarist that has ever lived. He can play better licks with one hand than any guitarist with two. I LOVE his playing. But the question is "who is better". What defines that? Influence? Album sales? Pop culture reference? If that is the case, Eddie is the clear winner hands down. Vai as good as he is has never shocked people like Ed did in '78 on the first album. He changed guitar. Long live the King!
@wendelmania Very well said my friend, right how do you compare? I really dont think that you can say who is the best. Vai is amazing but if you ask people who Steve Vai is alot of people have never heard his name let alone heard him play. Now if you ask people who Edward Vanhalen is most people have heard him play and those who Haven't I'll bet have still heard of him. Who is the best is merely based on opinion such as taste,style,upbringing and even being prejudice can play a role in judgement
@wendelmania Conclusion from first statement(Ran out of type room)
But yeah man you got it Eddie did blow people away when he first came out and nobody had ever heard anybody like him. The man is a legend such as Neil Peart from Rush,totally blew everybody away with his speed and precision when 2112 came out, nobody played like him and nobody heard anybody like him but he as well paved the way for musicians as well.
@fishinman2009 also, Satch is very talented, fast and all that jazz but he hasen't done a single thing on the guitar that hasen't been done before. I love his playing too; G3 tours always get me out. Very articulate and so on, but Eddie Van Halen catagory? Not even close.
@fishinman2009 sorry dude, i loved dave, billy, steve and greg as a band (and i know im in the minority there back in the day!) but a few things. 1:you forgot jason becker after vai (who is awesome but when u mention vai, most guys who arent musicians say "who?" ) 2: satriani is amazing and apart from kirk hammet, even the people he taught to play the guitar are legends in their own right. but hes just not EVH.. its in the phrasing. (my opinion) 3: EVH is the best living guitarist
@MrVHWolf you are an idiot vh was with mike better than 100 with Woopie ,,euhh wolfie, His son is just a fag imposed by fag Eddie .. period ,.... hagar era is way better than any DLR anytime after 1984 ..... stop sucking up to Eddie suck ass ...and grow the FUCK UP.. idiot.
@MrVHWolf Im a fan of groups. Before you open mouth you should look at the online polls. The Foot is kicking their ass! The funny thing is they sound more like VH with Michael Anthony singing background.
@TOMSGROOVES no band has kicked VH's ass since 1978 when they blew sabbath off stage everynight on tour... NO BAND!! END OF! you take a member of a band out of a band here and a band there and form these super groups.. but VH are as close to the orig line up as they have been since the mid eighties.. unless john bonham suddenly rises from his grave "altered beast" style and led zep go on tour, VH are the best band in the world once again AND WHO GIVE A FUCK WHOS ON BASS?! REALLY?!
@MrVHWolf Did you really do the same comment on the other She's the Woman page? Wow. Sammy laughing at you. I know. We're doing shots right now while Ed wishes he could drink. :hands bottle of Jack to Mikey:
Not new but its gonna sound killer with a real production on a official cd release! By the way Wolfgang killed on bass during this song at Cafe Wha? He has a real nice sounding punch to his bass.
@mesarock2vh dude! he shares chromosomes with his old man!! he may not have mic anthony's vocals but he'll probably be ten time the bassist!! people forget that MA joined the band from a little group called "Snake" (nice name btw... i can get more taste out my cock...) and that is almost certainly where he would have stayed if it wasnt for the van halen bother and dave roth needing a new bass player after Mark Stone got less serious about the band. (poor.... poor guy can u imagine?)
@terrormonkey1 Mike was the lottery winner in my opinion, just a decent player who got picked for the job. I think far to much is made about his high screech vocals but hey now he can screech along with Shammy!
@terrormonkey1 after the DLR-Wolfie-Van Halen record fails, there is a new reunion coming...yeah you know, wait for it, wait for it: Eddie, Alex, Mike (stone) and Gary Cherone! Yeah!!!
Wow no shit...VH meaning its all good:) :)

B) His live vocals are now just as good as MA ever was.
C) Ed made the wise choice in both Dave and Wolf.

EVH's practice tapes at age 14 are better than the latest Chickenfoot.
Buh-bye Spammy Hagar - your book and 3 year campaign of hate against EVH has failed. Welcome to the world of obscurity!

@MrVHWolf Glad to see I'm not the only one who hates Chickenfoot just for Sammy Hagar.. Because Joe Satriani is amazing

@MrVHWolf Well when they fired Roth, Roth found a better guitar player known as Steve Vai and when the fired Sammy, Sammy found a better guitar player known as Satch(Joe Satriani) both of who blow Eddie away on guitar hands down.
Take it to a vote.

@fishinman2009 Vai and Satch are both technically superior guitar players, no doubt, but Eddie obviously paved the way for their respective styles, thus, historically, he's the one who'll be remembered for his contribution to music. No disrespect, of course. As a guitarist, myself, with over 30 years of playing time under his rapidly expanding belt, I know how good those two guys are! Trust me; I've tried to play their stuff! LOL

@fishinman2009 Im voting, Im in! Vai is the most talented, most stunning guitarist that has ever lived. He can play better licks with one hand than any guitarist with two. I LOVE his playing. But the question is "who is better". What defines that? Influence? Album sales? Pop culture reference? If that is the case, Eddie is the clear winner hands down. Vai as good as he is has never shocked people like Ed did in '78 on the first album. He changed guitar. Long live the King!

@wendelmania Very well said my friend, right how do you compare? I really dont think that you can say who is the best. Vai is amazing but if you ask people who Steve Vai is alot of people have never heard his name let alone heard him play. Now if you ask people who Edward Vanhalen is most people have heard him play and those who Haven't I'll bet have still heard of him. Who is the best is merely based on opinion such as taste,style,upbringing and even being prejudice can play a role in judgement

@wendelmania Conclusion from first statement(Ran out of type room)
But yeah man you got it Eddie did blow people away when he first came out and nobody had ever heard anybody like him. The man is a legend such as Neil Peart from Rush,totally blew everybody away with his speed and precision when 2112 came out, nobody played like him and nobody heard anybody like him but he as well paved the way for musicians as well.

@fishinman2009 also, Satch is very talented, fast and all that jazz but he hasen't done a single thing on the guitar that hasen't been done before. I love his playing too; G3 tours always get me out. Very articulate and so on, but Eddie Van Halen catagory? Not even close.

@fishinman2009 sorry dude, i loved dave, billy, steve and greg as a band (and i know im in the minority there back in the day!) but a few things. 1:you forgot jason becker after vai (who is awesome but when u mention vai, most guys who arent musicians say "who?" ) 2: satriani is amazing and apart from kirk hammet, even the people he taught to play the guitar are legends in their own right. but hes just not EVH.. its in the phrasing. (my opinion) 3: EVH is the best living guitarist

@MrVHWolf Im a fan of groups. Before you open mouth you should look at the online polls. The Foot is kicking their ass! The funny thing is they sound more like VH with Michael Anthony singing background.

@TOMSGROOVES no band has kicked VH's ass since 1978 when they blew sabbath off stage everynight on tour... NO BAND!! END OF! you take a member of a band out of a band here and a band there and form these super groups.. but VH are as close to the orig line up as they have been since the mid eighties.. unless john bonham suddenly rises from his grave "altered beast" style and led zep go on tour, VH are the best band in the world once again AND WHO GIVE A FUCK WHOS ON BASS?! REALLY?!

@mesarock2vh dude! he shares chromosomes with his old man!! he may not have mic anthony's vocals but he'll probably be ten time the bassist!! people forget that MA joined the band from a little group called "Snake" (nice name btw... i can get more taste out my cock...) and that is almost certainly where he would have stayed if it wasnt for the van halen bother and dave roth needing a new bass player after Mark Stone got less serious about the band. (poor.... poor guy can u imagine?)

@terrormonkey1 Mike was the lottery winner in my opinion, just a decent player who got picked for the job. I think far to much is made about his high screech vocals but hey now he can screech along with Shammy!
