[302zman]

Lord have mercy.....not one fucking cell phone out there!!! Remember when you got home after a concert and your mom would tell you who called you on the phone. Indeed. If you were born before 75 say fuck yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joconnorwi]

not synced

[untamedheartt]

tell me if i synced it correctly

[hummarstra]

@untamedheartt video is still slightly behind audio, though its much better.

[bambamh20]

I WAS THERE YEAH !

[taypax]

the guy who announces them sounds like the same guy who announces early GnR and Motley

[mase5701]

The only people who put iced tea in Jack Daniels bottle IS THE CLASH BABY YEAAHH!!!

[sabian630]

I am in FULL VH mode since the new CD came out...which rips from top to bottom..EVH sounds great. Two great books to read on the band that came out within the last few yrs- The EVH bio..Excellent book! Also the VH saga..what is great is while you read the books and they describe certain events you click right over to here and watch what you just read! Thanks for posting man...

[edfitz83]

This is awesome - thanks for posting. I don't want to be a weenie here - but do you have (or can someone create) a version where the video and audio are synched better?

[untamedheartt]

@edfitz83 dude i found this on limewire and saved it to a dvd in 2004 i put this up on youtube cause this is very rare and hard to find its here now and i shared it :D

[ElrodtheAlbino420]

@edfitz83 Easy fix. Hit youtubeaudiosync.tumblr.com and nudge it. It takes a little practice, but after a few tries you can get a video synced up in seconds. Remember that you're nudging the audio, not the video.

[untamedheartt]

@ElrodtheAlbino420 ok i will try that thanks

[untamedheartt]

@edfitz83 tell me if i synced it correctly

[StoneyMcJuicyBuds]

Dave was all fucked up here.

[TheDrumgod66]

Classic roth performance. Spends more time thrusting his hips and wiping the mic stand on his ass than singing the words to the songs. Seen him many times in the day and it was always the same.

[simplybeckylee]

The noticeable missing band from this deal is Iron Maiden. All the other heavy hitters of the day played it. Total ignorance. But the unveiling of the girl gone bad riff without the lyrics is cool.

[hummarstra]

My favorite Dave rap is at 1:16:50 while Dave tunes up for Ice Cream Man. Must hear. He tells us why VH is there today. "....cuz we're a bunch of BAD ASS SONS OF BITCHES!" Lmao.

[Mrlotsoflots]

I wonder why they kept leaving" beautiful girls" out? Ichecked the list and they don't do it in largo either!

[TheJohannas5150]

Thank you for posting this metal madness day! VH was insane! Thats Diamond Dave in his prime! My 1st concert was VHII. Thank you

[untamedheartt]

@TheJohannas5150 vh got 1.5 million dollar's for this gig, and right's may belong to mac/apple inc, but triumph got nothing for there gig that's why triumph released there show out on vhs and it's on dvd yup fun fact here

[ezjeff]

@untamedheartt I have that triumph DVD and it rocks! A little unknown fact is the drummer said they had some drum kit there he had to use. So it wasn't his drum kit he's used to gigging on! Awesome job there!

[ROCKHEAR10000]

@TheJohannas5150 Thank you for the great post.Remember US festival like it was yesterday and in beautiful California.I saw full concert on video a couple years ago and didnt remember Im so glad,which is a great combo between Alex and Eddie. I didnt realize it was a Cream cover! Thank you for the information

[TheJohannas5150]

Happy Birthday Eddie

[TheJohannas5150]

Amazing show! Senior year! I recall not leaving till the morning. Slept in car after the show ended at midnight! Parking was a joke! Thank you Steve jobs for the US festival!

[hummarstra]

For legendary Dave banter go to 20:00

[1966kute]

Eddie Van Halen born January 26, 1955 so he's now 57.

[TheBellTollsForMe]

I didn't see Ed switch his guitar before Unchained... Is Romeo Delight in C or does just play Unchained in standard live?

@PaperLuna Happy 57th birthday eddie

[untamedheartt]

Happy 57th birthday eddie

[Aelleor]

I was eleven years old then, and in attendance. I thought I was going to fucking die. It was awesome. Tomorrow, I am buying tickets to VH at Staples!!

[TheBellTollsForMe]

@Aelleor I'll meet you there... Roadtrip from Utah with my friends to get there and live like rock stars on the strip for a weekend!

[DLRisVH]

Greatest frontman/entertainer to ever grace a Rock and Roll stage!!!

[DustinMichael51]

Gosh wish I could've seen these guys in them days. Would love this to be released on DVD or better yet restored picture and sound on blu-ray

[galking371]

2:17 "I forgot the fucking words" haha there aint no entertainer greater then David Lee Roth!

[untamedheartt]

i found this in 2004 on limewire i did'nt sync this i saved it to a disc enjoy

[JohnnyAllen69]

God bless you and this video treasure... why this entire concert is not released on vinyl, cd, blue ray, mp3 and any known form of distribution is beyond logic except licensing snafus....

[untamedheartt]

@JohnnyAllen69 vh got 1.5 million dollar's for this gig, and right's may belong to mac/apple inc, but triumph got nothing for there gig that's why triumph released there show out on vhs and it's on dvd yup fun fact here

[Saebeck32]

YES!!!

[BassFever74]

roth had to sweat some of the booze out lol

[thenakedeye100]

this concert should be officialy relased on dvd. There is nothing quite like a van halen concert, as we can see here. So your lead singer Diamond Dave might be wasted, appear partialy nude, swear. its called rock and roll. Eddie's playing up a storm, Al was an animal on the drums, and Mike holds up the end. its incredible.

[lstn74]

@thenakedeye100 Largo 1982 also

[untamedheartt]

@thenakedeye100 vh got 1.5 million dollar's for this gig, and right's may belong to mac/apple inc, but triumph got nothing for there gig that's why triumph released there show out on vhs and it's on dvd yup fun fact here

[klausmax2010]

alex intro for druns....perfect !

[TheBellTollsForMe]

What a pro, notice Eddie's flub during Cathedral and he just smiles... Bad. Ass.

[TheBellTollsForMe]

At least Diamond Dave is honest when he's so drunk he forgets the words to Romeo Delight

mumble mumble "Ah, I forget the fucking words!"

[klausmax2010]

concert classic

[PeytonGregory]

22:10

[rockero1590]

fucking loved man...sounds so fresh even all this years

[ratbatblu]

Girl Gone Bad!!!!! Cool instrumental version :)

[thenakedeye100]

[speccycoont]

Best band of the late 70s-early 80s bar none..wish they weren't so loaded for this show

[RICK5150JEM777]

[jerryskid1]

This is most certainly Van Halen at their peak with Roth. Never the tightest band, but always entertaining. Roth is like everyone's favorite drunk uncle.

[stoma4]

i was there--remember the girlfriend line---hated VH at the time (punker) now kinda diggem

[MrLeondario]

SI A DAVE, NO SAMMY PUTO!

[MAGIK5476]

[MrDeerecub1977]

[78VanHalen84]

"Those Were Good Times...Damn Good...In 2012 WE Will Be Havin Good Times... Damn Good Times!!! Van Halen Is Here.....

[1blueeyes1980]

DLR was is and always will be a true pro. 

[thechucker44]

[parejalema]

Excelente !!!!!

[Hunkola]

Ready to get down ---- I give you -- the Mighty ---- VAN HALENNNNN !!!

[bambamh20]

! WAS THERE !

[cbyss1]

Anyone who can make a small guitar like that sound the way it does is THE BEST!!!KING EDWARD!!!WE BOW!!

[stevedrums]

Boy those early Simmons drum sounds were brutal. BUT, they bring me back to being 13 years old again when I would have sold my sister for them!! Memeories. Hadn't seen this whole thing complete before.

[lAMRIGHTYOUAREWR0NG]

Is David Lee Roth lip synching?

[TheBellTollsForMe]

@lAMRIGHTYOUAREWR0NG No, the video is out of synch... Plus I doubt the band would put Edward messing up on Unchained and Dave saying he forgot the fucking words during Romeo Delight on the tape they would use to synch to lol

[hip2bsquareguitar]

Seen this more times than the amount of years Yoda has been training Jedi. Yoda actually uses early Van Halen audio/video as part of the training. That is a fact. Not a lot of people know this or could. ;-)

[giuliopoli69]

Hey! Don't squirt water on me man, I'm gonna fuck your girlfriend!! :-)

[danwilhite]

Awesome! I have this one VHS! I think I've seen it a few hundred times...still amazing

!

[kchamz]

Crazy, stupid, good guitar solo!

[kchamz]

Great but not synched?

[guacamolechief39]

Dave is so wasted

[monster4josh]

The fuckin sound is great, man! Thanks for your upload!

[bongnbud]

I was there also,.."Thank God" someone had the prescence of mind to film this stuff!!

[fibbersfan]

I was at the Us Festival concert. The heat was incredible. I was so burned out by the time Van Halen came on! Had a blast though! This brings me back to my youth.

[soco13466]

I was at a concert waaay waaay back in the deep dark 80's, in Michigan. One of the best concerts I ever went to.

[MrBobbyhill5150]

Girl gone badddd Woooo

[poweroverloadforvh]

There's Van Halen in concert ,, and then everybody else!! AWESOME

[thetarantulas123]

I am 13 but practically live in the 80s. People ask why I love VH so much!?!?! THISISWHY!!!!!!! Anyone who doesnt get this has no life. Long live ROCK n Roll. I give you the mighty VANHALEN!!!!!!!!!

[giuliopoli69]
