@tenaciousd1970 : Bravo, your French deserves an 'A' :-)

@Xmaia : Super, encore un français, salut, compatriote ;-) !

In fact, this is not the only show where Dave "played" guitar on Unchained. They did that too in Spain.

They were just having fun doing these lip-synch songs, there's a better-known video (a Belgian TV show) where Dave pretends to play the intro of Hear About It Later along with Eddie on the Frankie, sorta 4-hands guitar, it's hilarious !

What's Really weird about it is that by 1981, Everyone who knew of VH (The World) KNEW that DLR was the singer and didn't play guitar with Eddie Live !!!! The Audio sound sped up a bit too, Wass-upp-widdatt ??? But all in all, CLASSIC VH STILL RULES !!!

[VHFrance]

I had to raise the pitch of the song because youtube checks authorised contents, and it would have turned off the audio.

And that's the last time we saw them in France (I mean both David and Eddie).

I think it was for a show at Le Pavillon Baltard...

So, next show schedulded now ?

[VHFrance]

Salut, tu est francais, donc ? On n'est pas les seuls à aimer VH ici, alors ! Tu peux nous rejoindre sur VHFrance si ca te dit !

C'est cette émission qui est était enregistrée au Pavillon Baltar ? Ca a bien changé depuis on dirait !

[VHFrance]

In case you're asking, my name isn't "someone". I'm a member of the VHFrance staff, we're trying to relate everything we can about this band, in a country where they're almost forgotten. So giving us some credits would be great.

I'm also certain you guys understand that this video is not about performance (it's just some lame lip-sync), but about rarity, and fun !

I think we have here a good example of how cool this band once was : they're having fun !

[pjmurray71]

Seriously. The people that are critiquing this in a negative way MISSED the whole point. VH was all about having fun and being ridiculous. Wanna see them kicking ass for real?? Watch the live Unchained video from Oakland in '81. No band on the planet can touch that performance. This is just them at their goofy best...Kinda like the Jump video. RELAX!

[864208642]

I wonder what they got paid for this. What a joke. I'd be pissed if I paid to see VH and this is what I got.

[OrganicAudioRecordrs]

holy crap Dave wearing the electric is insane hahahaha

[TheNightseagull]

I know Roth is quite arrogant....

but him with a guitar....on this song....

c'mon dave...give me a break...

[millie8100]

Hey everyone ! I'm bilingual and that guy at the begining was taking "weird" french . Cause in Canada, we dont talk like that. xD ! Comme: hey , VanHalen sé les meilleurs en tabarnak la !!

@JJF10101957

You're definetely a... Fat, drunk, and stupid... 54 years old child !

[dezertfox4323]

He isn't playing the guitar at all?

[JJF10101957]

Froggies are the worst.

[bongoloid77]

This is awful... I love VH but this is awful...

[Hunkola]

France is a country of fuckin' douchebags ---- you don't force the mighty Halen to lip-synch......you plug them into monster amps and UNCHAIN their fury onstage!

[Tamaslammer]

Roth with a guitar??
