Van Halen - You Really Got Me 9/22/78

This is the 5th track on the only 78 footage of Van Halen. I skipped Eruption, because thats one of the most circulated Van Halen videos on the net. Its these other ones that are rarely seen, so if you wanna see Eruption, type it into the search bar. But heres You Really Got Me, as fresh as it could be in 1978!

i saw them for my first time on this tour in Houston. They opened for Black Sabbath. After this tour Ozzy went solo cause he was embarrased Sabbath got their ass kicked by an opening act.

I've seen almost every live VH live video out there (even before Youtube I was trying to get VHS/DVDs)...but never saw this '78 footage. Pretty F'ing amazing. To see them so fresh on the 1st tour. crazy!!!!

There is only one guy that everyone compares everyone else to.

That says one thing..............he is the king

dam, back then it was like a big kick ass party for everyone. Too bad those days are gone. These days, its all about the self centered "artist" who want to make "statemets" what every happened to just having fun?

@jimistreets Dude! Thats awesome! it couldn't of happened to a better bunch of guys. It's always cool when our troops get the VIP treatment. I bet it was killer!

I was in the Army, stationed in Germany in 1980, when Van Halen blew thru. We showed up VERY early, and it so happened they were showing up at the same time for sound check, totally hammered of course. They walked right by us and I said, "What's up fellas! I'm from West Covina (CA)!" They stopped in their tracks and Ed said to Dave, "Look! We got a homie here!" Dave says, "Bill (or Bob?, a road manager)! Take care of these guys!" So my buds and I watched the show from the wings!! I was 19!

I was from that era and I remember reading about bands that VH opened for how they did not really like going on after VH cause the crowd went nuts for them (u know usually during the opening act it time to hit the bathroom) And yes black sabbath was one of the victims of VH opening show.
