This Day in CVH/DLR History
1978
Van Halen plays the Colston Hall in Bristol, England. Black Sabbath is the headliner.
1980
Van Halen plays the Pinkpop Festival in Geleen, Netherlands. The bill (not in order): The Jam, J. Geils Band, Van Halen, Specials, Joe Jackson Band, Garland Jeffreys, Raymond van het Groenewoud and the Centtimeters. This was Van Halen's first European outdoor festival. It was originally canceled after Dave broke his nose filming a special on Italian television. The night before the gig on 5/25, probably some time after rehearsals, Edward and Alex appeared on Dutch radio announcing they would still play the festival, quoting Dave's remark, "Fuck the doctor!" Attendance: 50,000"
