  • Thanks for posting. I wish I had a time machine and could go back and see the show. There is nothing like old Van Halen.

  • @frankenstrat25 Okay, you're right. On closer inspection I can see the huge difference in the angle of the neck's head.

    Shark

    Thanks!

  • @funhistory oh no man. eddie has said in an interview i found on here back in 1980 that he had a guitar that he named the shark which was an ibanez destroyer chopped up. then he was talkin about how he liked it so much but he made the mistake of taking a chainsaw to it. so he got another and that turned into the carved up mess. its prrof because he said he got it turned into a snake or serpent biting another snake serpent thing. if i find the link ill send it to you

  • @frankenstrat25 "carved mess" = The Shark

  • @houseparty80 Damn. I have the same story. I saw them 2 weeks later in Los Angeles on 4/8/79. I also recently bought the boot of the L.A. show.

  • @mesabow Van Halen are awesome, but you NEED to listen Led Zeppelin again, they are truly legendary.

  • @houseparty80 Hay I was at that concert as well, they stole the show from Black Sabbath...August 29th, 1978

  • Come see the ENTIRE Fresno 79 show, upgraded, with 1 new song added !..Natasha.. ;)

  • This is the same year I saw Van Halen 1979...I was 15 and couldn't hear for a week after that concert...but it changed my guitar playing forever.

  • Close, but no cigar. It is actually the 1st night of their second world tour, the night before the official release of the second album and is available on DVD in Pristine 1st generation quality at ...sonic wiz dj @ g mail . com
