Who is RothArmy Member 5150?

[aesop]

Just curious who 'won' that distinction? Are they a Van Hagar lover? Inquiring minds want to know!!!

PS - Sorry if this has come up before. I'm still kinda the 'new guy'.

Damn. Seems like a waste, doesn't it? Can it be re-issued?

[aesop]

better than 316...what about number 666 should be "satan" or "hellvis"

[Lou]

Whoever is member 5150 at the Links probably jumped for joy when he made that realization.

5150 evokes such strong negativity. Any REAL Van Halen fan understands that there's nothing funny, cute or positive about that number.

[Brett]

The guy who is member 5150 at my site has never posted Lou. Good call there. Sounds like a real obsessive doesn't he?

Any REAL Van Halen fan will also know that Eddie used the "5150" logo on his guitar during the 1984 tour.....

Yup, and that tour was their weakest, most cardboard cut-out tour, the beginning of the end. I know that 1984 was done in "5150" studios...I try to deny it though.

Sorry, LOOOO. Some of us actually love the 1984 album. I was only a kid and that was my first exposure to the band. That album was produced better than any other VH album except FAIR WARNING, IMHO. And the tour seemed pretty amazing to me. You posted the DVD of the Montreal show. And I much appreciated upgrading my old VHS.

I'm curious........ why do you feel that way?

[Lou]

I posted the 1984 DVD by request.

I have, I don't know, maybe fifty 1984 shows. THEY ALL SOUND THE SAME! The tour had a rigid setlist and every show was cookie cutter except Quebec 4/21/84. They also cut out pretty much everything from VHII, WACF and FW on that tour. 75% of the songs were either VHI or 1984, a couple of DD, one WACF and one FW. The shows have a rigid, forced feel to them.

[Lou]

Even though their other tours had pretty much the same setlist, they still varied more and I have a pretty good ear for which show is which on the other tours. The shows still have a uniqueness to them.

Not so with the 1984 tour, there is no uniqueness except Quebec 4/21/84 where they busted out "Ice Cream Man" and "Summertime Blues" (the only recorded 1984 performances of those). I mean you pop in a 1984 show, I will be hard pressed to tell you which one it is. They're just carbon copies of each other. The band wasn't talking to each other, and it showed. If you were AT the show, then you would have walked out of there feeling great. But looking at it 20 years later, and having the benefit of all these bootlegs, listening to show after show it actually gets tiring. They were just going through the motions at that point. All the Daveisms were in the same place, same time. Runnin' With The Devil was CONSISTENTLY 2:56. I mean it was so precise, so rigid, the 1984 is my least favorite.

[Flash Bastard]

OK, fair enough. I've never heard any boots from the 1984 tour so I'll take your word on it.

[Rikk]

Yeah, but a show is brilliant based on its design as that one show. It's not lacking because it's too much like other shows. I am not saying it's their best tour. But I do think it's an amazing show because they still cover all six albums except the second and the audience is so into it and it's still incredible playing. I don't in any way think of it as lesser anything.

Frankly, that's also my favorite period because, more than ever, it was all about Dave!

[Panamark]

I would still rather be member 1984 than 5150 :p

Eveytime I think of 5150, I think of that gay "5150 walk"
with poodle headed Spammy and the girls all in line..

*SHUDDERS*

5150 SUX !

[Rikk]

That "5150 Dance" is gayer than a pink Will & Grace feelgood sweater.

How would you know? Oh that's right, the bootlegs, I forgot. Not like you were actually there or anything.

[Panamark]

Brenty, who gives a fuck if Lou was there ????
(The dude obviously has a good knowledge on the history
of the band)

I wanna know the emporer's opinion of the gay 5150 walk ?
Do you get all warm and fuzzy looking at pics of it, or are
you as mortified as the rest of us hard rockin heavy metal
sons of Rock ?? Like, all bullshit aside, isnt that *THE*
gayest thing Van Halen has ever done ?


Light up the Sky !!!! Burn the fags on a bonfire heap.

[Brett]

I give a fuck if Lou was there. So what if he has knowledge of the band? I know a lot about Led Zeppelin too, doesn't mean I know what the fuck the shows were like or what it was to be a fan back then. Lou talks about tours and shows like he was there, when he's only got a bunch of shitty-sounding bootlegs and 50-generation VHS tapes of shows. Sorry, those don't mean jack.

Don't give a shit about the 5150 walk. Don't waste my time with that. If you are interested in beating off to it, talk to a shrink about that, I can't help you there.
