You are right noworries, this was a great time. It is tragic that they could not stay together.

@chimptor50 Lol the same thing happened to my dad when he saw them in 1982 in Nassau Colliseum. Some asshole threw a cherry bomb at Dave and it almost exploded in his face and he said his famous "I'm gonna fuck your girlfriend pal!!" and the place went absolutley fucking insane.

Now THIS is a happy band. The fellas are just gettin' hyped,tellin' jokes & living up to their 1st brand new #1 album's name "5150". Van Halen Mach 2. Ed & Al happy as hell to be back in business (AC/DC & Black Sabbath ain't the ONLY ones who came back strong after a loss). They were FINALLY on top. Sammy's fighting an invisible man is HILARIOUS !! Ed making impact & animal noises with his guitar SICK. Al digs on Ol' Hank & Mike & Ed make "Addicted To Love" FUNKY. Can't get THIS stuff no more.
