83' Us Festival

[DLR7884]

My brother was at the '82 Largo show at the old Capital Center.

He said it was one of the best shows he's ever seen by any band, ever.

Still. Can anyone post a soundboard recording of the US Fest 83 instead of the audience recording ???

I gotta get my hands on the largo VHS show, its really the only one I dont have yet that I really want to get, keep hearing about it all the time.....

If you can get it... Sinclair's DVD of the Largo '82 show is the best one available.
He did a bang up job on fixing it up real nice.

And as far as the US Festival goes, I agree with Lou and his comments.
I always figured alot of EVH fans bashed the US Festival show because right before the encore, there are 200,000 people chanting...

ROTH!!! ROTH!!! ROTH!!! ROTH!!!!

That's a vibe that can't be found on the other shows that have been discussed.

Not only that, but the sheep always say "Roth was drunk and fucked up the entire show".

Bullshit.

The whole damn band was drunk, and they all fucked up notes, harmonies, drumbeats, etc.

And you know what? The 300,000 people who saw the whole thing live LOVED IT.

It wasn't their greatest musical performance ever, but who gives a rat's ass. This wasn't a typical gig, it was a fucking party. And nobody parties better than Van HALEN

Best thing you can do for DVD's is to contact PanicBoy over at vhtrading.com ...he is an excellent trader and is willing to do 2 for 1's.
