Don't they need to finish their "postponed" tour first? :gethim:

Hey, my mom was even a bit too young to see DLR VH back in the day (She did mention she may have seen Sammy Hagar Van Halen on the 5150 tour but can't really remember... MY mom, BYU attending, straight laced, Mormon mom saw fucking Van Halen on the 5150 tour but can't quite remember...!) so when I almost got see Van Halen at least once live they cancel the damn tour and the week before our show was going to be anyway is when Ed was rushed to the hospital so even if they didn't cancel I was destined not to see them...

Just let me experience King Edward play live at least once!

rent the video, as I don't think you will get the aural sound experience from those early days given his sound has changed quite a bit, too fendery for me.

problem I have with them moving forward is exactly what we will get from them in terms of creativity. I just keeping thinking about EVH comments about 100's of song ideas, presumably riffs that are probably relevant to a time 30-40 years ago, but not today. They really need to evolve and create some new form of music that draw from their roots instead of re-heated and re-worked leftovers that don't exude the period we live in. Otherwise just go out on tour with the greatest hits stuff and call it a day, if a few of them can stay off the sauce and avoid the in-fighting.

Yeah, it has all of that down-tuned stuff he's been doing since '81... oh wait...
 
How is down tuned considered a bad thing? That's silly, especially with Eddies rhythm style where he's all over the range of the instrument
I'm sure there E or Eb in there on many of the songs

Nothing wrong with it. I was being sarcastic towards the objection that they are only rehashing stuff that's not relevant to today.
