VH & Sabbath - Seattle 9-29-78 PIX - NOTE: PIX WILL LOAD SLOW AS SHIT AT 56K

**Hardrock69** · 02-04-2005, 11:30 PM

I got these done and uploaded. The quality is a bit better than the previous ones I posted.

I am hosting these on my ISP web space, so if the bandwidth should go through the roof, they may eventually be unavailable.

But what the hell....

Enjoy!

Man The memories i have of the night i seen =VH= open for Ozzy
one Ass kicking show

**Hardrock69** · 02-04-2005, 11:47 PM

Okay now boys and girls.....the old doddering farts stumble out onstage to try to salvage what's left of the show after getting their asses blown away.....

"HEY HEY EVERBODY LOOK AT ME I CAN STILL STAND UP!!!"

"Lets go fucking crazy!!! Can he walk at all, drunk as hell, will he fall?"

"THIS GOES OUT TO EVERYONE WHO STILL LOVES US EVEN THOUGH WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE OPENING ACT!"

Tony looks on as all 5 people still there cheer him on...

Nawwww...it wasn't really that bad. Sure VH kicked The Sabs ass bad, but that was the first time I got to see Black Sabbath, and they were pretty good....

I would not see Ozzy with Black Sabbath for another 20 years....

I went home after this show, picked up my guitar, and attempted to do some 2-handed tapping...

And the rest is history....

**Panamark** · 02-05-2005, 12:58 AM

Hey Come on..

Sabbath and Halen. You cant really compare the two.
Two totally different styles.

I remember hearing the Sabbath reunion recordings from
a few years back, and it fucking kills the recent Van Hagar
effort.

**IMFUCKINPISSED** · 02-05-2005, 08:54 AM

Yes the Good Old Days! I saw this tour in Nashville in 78!
It's almost unreal to think that was almost 30 years ago.
How I wish we could alll go back to that time period!
It was a time like No other!
Sex, Drugs & Van Halen!!!!!!!!

**moose** · 02-05-2005, 11:14 AM

**danielc** · 02-05-2005, 01:47 PM

Why can't I see the pictures? There's only a place holder. Can you repost them?

**Hardrock69** · 02-05-2005, 03:05 PM

Hang on...I can't see them either for some reason...

GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! I just posted them last night!!!!

**Hardrock69** · 02-05-2005, 03:13 PM

Ok kids, they are still on my ftp. Perhaps I have been ignorant of some rule around here, or maybe my ISP is clamping down.

I am going to post them as attachments so you guys can download them.

Weeelllll...lemme tell ya a story....

1. The only difference stylistically between them at the time was that Van Halen was an L.A. High-Powered Explosive White Hot Party Metal Band (Yes, I considered them to be Metal for the first couple of tours...I said TOURS..not albums, as live they were very much in the vein of Metal...loud guitars, lotsa shouting about sex and getting ripped, etc.) and Black Sabbath was a Birmingham Doom Metal outfit

2. Yes I CAN compare the two, and HAVE compared the two for over 27 years now, as they were on the SAME BILL!

3. Yes, the Black Sabbath Reunion stuff has consistently destroyed Van Hagar. Why? Because it is Van HAGAR NOT 1978-era Van Halen. ANYONE who saw that tour DID WITNESS Black Sabbath getting blown off the stage. Even Tony Iommi AND Ozzy have admitted in many interviews over the past 2 decades that Van Halen was kicking their ass every night on that tour. The Setlists for the Current Black Sabbath shows going on whenever they go out to play Ozzfest, or European Metal Festivals (like they are already confirmed to do this coming summer) are ALL OLDER MATERIAL from the EARLY 70s. The SAME KICKASS STUFF that made them big to begin with. So YES Black Sabbath is still kicking ass!!!
Van Hagar is nothing but a pop band. There is no longer any comparison, because A) Sammy Hagar never was, is not, and never will be a metal artist, B) Edward is the worlds most famous Guitar Hero DRUNK, and C) Van Hagar's set lists are nothing but a buncha "OOH BABEE GIMMEEE ALL YORE LUV TONIIIIITE" pop music bullshit. So to compare Reunion-era Black Sabbth to ANYTHING Van Hagar has ever done is like comparing a 10-ton steam roller to a flower bed.

I was just fortunate to be able to witness a piece of Rock History and have a camera with me at the time.

Cheers, mate!

**Vivian Campbell** · 02-05-2005, 05:46 PM

The only has been (at the time) in Sabbath was Ozzy. Once you removed the cancer from Sabbath, lo and behold, they produced one of the greatest albums ever: Heaven and Hell.

Attacking Tony Iommi is ridiculous. Tony, IMO, can out play Ed any day.

**Vivian Campbell** · 02-05-2005, 05:48 PM

I love how Ozzy claimed that tour convinced him to quit Black Sabbath.

Bwahaha, if "quit" means Bill Ward breaking the bad news that your Sharon loving ass was fired from Sabbath.

**Dan** · 02-05-2005, 05:51 PM

Thanks for the pictures Dude.

**Hardrock69** · 02-05-2005, 06:04 PM

Yeah...I saw both tours Dio did with BS in the early 80s....talk about fucking amazing!!!

**degüello** · 02-06-2005, 03:28 PM

Fuck, those are fucking sweet! Thanks for sharing.

**Diamondjimi** · 09-30-2007, 10:12 PM

*Bump*

Great pics. HR. Shit, you had killer seats.

Quick ,everyone into the time machine !!!

**Hardrock69** · 09-30-2007, 10:46 PM

No seats. General Admission.

Yes I was only about 10 feet from the stage.

**BALLYJUNKIE** · 09-30-2007, 11:06 PM

Killer !

General Admission was the best ...

To witness Eruption back in it's first exposure on the big stage's must've been amazing. My first CVH show was in 1980 . It blew my mind.

**Nitro Express** · 10-01-2007, 08:30 AM

Van Hagar was Sammy plagerising Dr. Suess and adding dirty words to the rymes. That song Up for Breakfast was like something a dirty kid in the 2nd Grade would write.

**thome** · 10-01-2007, 09:14 AM

AWESOME!!! the little red X tour was my favorite!

Sorry dude, I couldn't resist the pics are probably cool wish I could see them.

**Hardrock69** · 10-01-2007, 10:27 AM

Allright dammit.

I gotta fix this.

See, when I host stuff on my personal ISP page, it only gives me so much bandwidth.

If not today, I will fix it tonight.

When I posted these, there was no good free image hosting site.

Now, they are everywhere.

I have not reposted these since I put them up, so I will solve this fucking problem

Apparently I am over my bandwidth limit for the month, as the photos were displayed last night, and now I cannot see them either.

GRRRRRR!!!

**Hardrock69** · 10-02-2007, 09:23 AM

They are back up on the first page of this thread (at least for now), but here they are again, hosted at Tinypic.com:

**thome** · 10-02-2007, 07:57 PM

Roth On HR

Out Freekin Standing !

For me they are up, all in one post, just above this one of mine.They are still not on the first page at all..fyi

I even tried to URL the Red X and Band width exceeded.

I think of how many shows I have seen and coulda got some shots (pics)....general admission, front row for 12.00$.

I saw Kiss in 78 and I swear to god I havn't ever seen Kiss live, but I was there........ pics would help.lol
