Fcuk me, I know what you mean... I spent about 2 hours going through all of those and then ended up going through Scorpions vids some how...

Question #1: will they last until May, or will Dave get fired again before then?

Eddie still looks like Eddie, but Dave now looks like the uncle you don't want your kids spending too much time with, instead of the guy you didn't want your girlfriend to meet...

Anyone going??
Loved this band growing up, saw David Lee Roth with Van Halen or solo 5-6 times, and one of the best performers I ever saw.
However invested $175 plus fees to see them the last time through, and it was terrible. No real show other than the music. Hopefully better this time around, but I doubt it.

It would be cool if Steel Panther opened for them...

This is turning into a masters thread

 

[Rangerforever]

My favourite band of all time and want to see this concert.

Masters Thread - Too right...

 

[Captain Shamrock]

I saw them when they came here in 1983 I believe or 1984......so there is no need to see them now at 60 years-old.

What's a Van Halen?

 

[SC]

Actually boys, Van Halen completely rocked the joint that last time they came together...was it Dec 2010 or Dec 2009? I can't remember...BUT anyway... I was in the first row of the lower bowl right beside the stretched stage on the side...Dave worked the entire crowd and had so much energy. Wolfgang was just beginning to get his 'grove'...as awkward as a 15 year old could be...he had some skills.

I though Sammy did what he could back in '95 -they put on a great show then...and what about Sammy AND Dave together on stage at the Gorge? As ugly as Dave is, I would do go again...just to see how Wolfgang has developed.

Regi, I think their new songs sounds too much like "Me Wise Magic". I recall they put on a 2hr -2.5hr concert and left my ears buzzing for quite some time... Captain, the cougars are of plenty, that might be a reason to go anyway
