I went to the Jump Van Halen Tribute Show last night and...............................

I would have to say it was quite entertaining, the singer had definitely studied DLR and did all his stage antics, Kicks jumps and even sounded quite authentic, the singer bounced around just like DLR and he sang a bit better than DLR sang live 1983/1984. The band was pretty tight and they played on par with the 1983-84 Halen IMHO. Overall it was a fun show and they did a respectable job playing all the Halen tunes from VH-1 through 1984 only. Nothing past 1984.

The guitar players tone was decent but it was gainier tone, he ran two real 4x12 cabs and 4 dummy 4x12 cabs but his tone was good, I guess it to be something like and EVH 5153 amp or Kemper/Fractal as I didn't hear alot of harmonic feedback when he held notes, but it was a good EVH tone nonetheless. I walked behind the stage after the show and didn't see an amp anywhere that was obvious.

It was a fun show and if you like VH I think you would enjoy this rendition of tributes out there.

Man, that looks great. I'd love to see them, but I doubt they come to AZ. I can go to Fort Wayne, IN for work anytime I want, but am planning the next trip around Eric Johnson's show there in a month.

They tour all over, I saw them in Morris Illinois for a Corn Festival. It was a good show, everyone there seemed to really like them. They did not lose their crowd once they started playing so that says alot IMHO.

Those jumps off the riser are a sure way to a hip / knee replacement.
