WTF Is Wrong With Van Halen?
Nothing, because nothing stays the same. We're all getting older, ironically, at the same rate. After listening to Fair Warning (my favorite) tonight in it's full sonic glory I realized "Where Have All The Good Times Gone" indeedido.
At 61 I'm the same age as they are and I'm just so damned glad to have 4 "perked" tickets to see them during the summer at an outdoor venue with some friends. VH's popularity has made that possible since 1979 for me.
It's a thrill and a reminder of how many years and LIVE shows CVH has put a Roth "mule kick" in my step. Thank God for The Roth Army, Elvis banishments and all; I love the discourse here.
