Thanks for posting! There's a couple things on there I've never seen before and I thought I had everything--especially that Pete interview.Quote:

I'm not sure like you there were a few little bits I hadn't seen before and that was one. Feels like late VH to me but someone on here will know for sure..
Dave was the real Jeff Spicoli.
From what he said, he was inferring that Van Halen were still together at that point, so I'm thinking late 1984 or early 1985.Quote:

I think that clip at 26:40 you mention is reminiscent of an interview from maybe '82 or thereabouts?
Looks like something I had on an old VHS that I bought before 1984 ... he says, '9 years after the fact' when referring to how long they had been going. So 1973 + 9 = 1982??
Fun watching those old clips... times sure have changed.
I agree.Quote:

We are in an age of information overload. There really isn't any joy or anticipation with anything these days. Things come in fast and that's it.
Yeah. Our current government officials make Dave look like a well behaved gentleman.Quote:

Yeah I remember programming the VCR to record a lot of MTV stuff so I could watch it later. At the time I had a day job and was playing in clubs 6-7 nights a week. I'd come home at 2am and catch up on what I'd missed so I could wind down to get to work at 8:30 the next morning...Quote:

We are in a fragmented world of echo chambers. No such thing as a broad audience anymore.Quote:
