All I can say is Im glad I paid 10 bucks to see them back in 1984 while they kicked ass and not paying over 100 bucks to see shit like this......Im sorry guys but this is horrible....
i must say eddie is still a awesome guitar player but as a person i wouldnt say that he is half dutch and something else, these people are strange.dave is great party on dave.
@SpiritKnob Absolutely! Fantastic drummer who was overshadowed by a guy with a mammoth personality and stage presence, and his brother, who is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
This is the most controversial discussion thread for such a monumental occurence in the history of rock-n-roll. Yeah, yeah, it's a 'reunion', but no one has yet pointed out the living hell DLR put the band through (which led to their part). This IS monumental; Wolfgang is limited but he's a pubescent - put yourself in his shoes; you could make elevator music from ANY VH song (without vocals) and people would ride elevators just to listen. So fucking what...? VH rocks. <==== period
@rvhawkeye surely dave is dave but with sammy they had more success in the billboards but the music on their albums with dave was more fun,wild and heavier.i prefer dave anytime yeaahhh he is rock and roll
@lovemaker1972 I recently read just the opposite of what you are saying, the article stated that Van Halen had more commercial success, ie; more albums sold, with Dave. I believe I read this in Rolling Stone but I read so much that I have trouble keeping track of sources at times.
I like Sammy Haggars voice for Van Halen as so many do, yet for this single, David Lee Roth masters it. Plus hearing Roth with this song is upbeat especially on radio. Gotta pull the car over and listen or I'll end up running a red light. lol. Don't wanna do that. What was the cause for running the light sir. Oh..... Van Halens' Hot For Teacher....
@craigslistbusiness except DLR is a badass and has character, and becuase of that his voice doesnt need to be exceptional. It is fact that they wrote better music with DLR and also fact that Sammy voice is "better" i suppose skill wise; except what Hagar was singing about made him a giant vag so ultimately DLR is more of a boss
@Specialmeeeetch One can argue Ed plays harder, faster, better (meaning more technical) when Dave is in the band. Due to Dave's style as apposed to Sammy where Ed seems to be more laid back. That be the case gimmie Roth!
If people are into Chickenshit that is fine. Nobody compares to Ed an Al. Good to see Dave back where he belongs, and Wolf did a fine job on the tour, despite what all the haters say.
not really big on Wolf and Dave, buy my lord can the Van Halen brothers still play!!! I had heard for years that Eddie was done, but it's obvious that critic was wrong.
I have seen Van Halen 9 times in concert, they are amazing live. However, I heard an interview with Micheal Anthony and according to what he said, he learned out about this tour like everyone else did and wasnt even asked to play. I think if this is true, it's said. I mean I understand it must be cool to play with your son. But I would have loved to seen the original line up. Long live Chickenfoot!
...I saw VH in1977 at Manly Field House, Syracuse University. They opened for Journey.... but after VH played, Journey got booed off the stage. !! I was 13, and in the 3rd row ! :)
Dave is such a Showman. He really is show biz, in an old fashioned way that is almost dead. Like a circus conductor, or Vaudeville act. He makes stages look tiny. Despite his showmanship, he draws attention to the others in the band. I had really missed that dynamic when he left. I even refused to listen to Van Hagar. If they can forgive, perhaps I should too.
Ca va faire une semaine qu'a chaque fois que je cherche une vidéo live bien précise je tombe sur les vôtres les gars...la chaine a bien marché, félicitations!
@Uldebass Yet you are watching him on utube, who the fuck are you? Wolf is legit nasty, if you dont see that you are blind or probably just jealous like the majority of haters.....Mikey who>?
@blasty5150 i remember the original bass player... i don't like when someone give job to his son, this is nepotism like in Italy, where i live. that's all
Back in the 70's I played in bar bands in Denver, Colorado. I saw a band from L.A. that everyone was nuts about. They played one of the clubs I played in and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. They didn't play Denver to often but, when they did the bar was packed. The band was called Mamouth. This was Van h. before they made it big. Man were they HOT in a bar setting.
wow, that must have been a great experience for you. But are you sure that it was the real Mamouth, you see, there where 2 bands in the same town with that name, and when van halen found out of it, david lee roth came up with a new name, Van Halen, inspired by Santana.
@michaeljay66 NIgga, you full of shit. You didn't see MAMMOTH in a fucking bar in Denver before they were VH. When was this, 72-73? Mammoth was touring in '73 and playing club gigs in Denver, CO. ? Fuck that shit you talkin, nigga. WTF kinda shit is that, you're confused about a few things. Fuck you, fucking asshole.
@SpikeMichaels BAHAHAHA what a dickhead you are, internet tough guy!! 'nigga' you racist sack of shit! i hope your dad raped you when you were little!! (i'm white BTW but still, that shit ain't right!!!)
I miss the younger, running and jumping around, Roth.
