  • Geez, today's bands are a fucking joke compared to this stuff.

  • David Lee Roth was so badass that he didn't even have to sing if he didn't want to. There will never be another Van Halen.

  • DLR said at one point that his vocal influence was Ray Charles...you can hear it time to time. Anyway, the energy is incredible in this video. ^^*

  • @ATeam192 Hey I am totally w/ ya! I luv DLR! they tried, and had success w/ some "other" singers, but damn, David is just plain the Effin Man! The early stuff (not the typical radio stuff) showcases his bluesey style. simply second to none! if I had a choice, Ii'd rather pay to see Roth. but yeah, it is a spectrum thing! (which is where I saw VH in the early 80's).

  • @generationaluv David Lee Roth also had some vey cool vocal chops. He's an underrated singer because of his style, but could belt out a tune quite well actually :) Love Robert Plant btw, but they're 2 ends of the spectrum.

  • @ATeam192 Robert Plant was the best pure vocalist, however, David Lee was a monster in showmanship and audience connection!

  • Lead vocals...Bo Derek!!!

  • THIS IS THE DIVER DOWN TOUR FROM THE SUMMER OF 1983. I WAS FRONT ROW IN VANCOUVER, BC AT THE PACIFIC-COLISEUM. THE ENTIRE FRONT ROW WAS ON THE BACK OF THEIR SEATS, AND THREE SONGS IN, EVERYONE FELL BACKWARDS LIKE A WAVE INTO THE SECOND ROW. COPS SURROUNDED THE COLISEUM, PARAMEDICS GIVING GIRLS CRUSHED AT THE FRONT OXYGEN. BEST SHOW I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE, HAND'S DOWN.

  • @11junglegym

    Something was going on during Eddie's solo.

    See the roadie jump out?

  • Yer ,I reckon they showed about 15 seconds of Eddie playing in this clip, seems to be the same with all VH early clips saw one yesterday where they showed a close up of Anthony on Bass during the entire scorching guitar solo , WTF ???????
