A remind of what all the fuss was about.

That would be the infamous Atomic Punks, and Ralph was indeed excellent at his Dave impersonation. This is the band that both Bart Walsh and Brian Young played in, before they moved on to Dave's band. The guitarist here is Russ. Forget his last name. Unfortunately Ralph is no longer with the 'Punks. He's doing "Steel Panther" full time now (which is like what Spinal Tap would be if they were from LA, and not supposed to be British)

Playing with Dave was probably a step down. The Punks played shit like On Fire, Women In Love and Light Up The Sky. You'll never hear Dave do those songs.

You hitting the ganja again Bugger ??

You've gotta know the Punks, bro....

I havent seen one of their vids in a few years, thought it might be them but wasnt sure, I honestly have only seen a couple of them.....

[hankster]

Haha, the Punks were alot more fun to watch than VH is now, it's a shame too cause VH wasn't all that bad in Greensboro!

[Nitro Express]

He was implying it....the only thing he left out is the part about the $93 million tour gross. I really thought the Cherone years and the 2004 tour were the worst it could get but it turns out I was wrong.

That dude in the other thread that said MWM and CGTSNM were our crackers was wrong. As it turns out this half ass reunion is VH fans cracker. I love reading the delusional tard comments over at YouTube about how great this tour was.

I'm not sure which is fucking gayer.....Sammy and Ed singing "face to face" a couple times during the When It's Love video or David Lee Roth agreeing to front the band again with Wolfie Bonaduce on bass guitar

?????? Dude. Please. Don't try to be a psycic because you are horrible at it. Your assumption is way out in left field. What I stated is what I stated and no more and no less. I shared a YouTube to show how great VH was in their early prime. No where did I even remotely hint that I thought they would be this great now. In my oppinion. It would be impossible to catch that magic now. VH might be able to play that song well today but it's not going to be what's in the clip. It's just a slice of historic magic.

I think we all know.....bitterly enough...just how great VH was in their prime and what could have been.....we don't need a reminder....I don't need a reminder....I'm reminded of it everday when I listen to them in my car and it sucks just how far they've fallen from that...and dude...you don't have any room accusing anyone of being out in "left field" 'cause you own left field bro

They aren't as good without Ralph and Russ...with those two guys they owned the fuck out of VH everytime they played.....Dave and Ed are so far removed from it it's sad to watch......Mick and Keef are closer to it then Dave and Ed could ever hope to be

[ELVIS]

They damn well better play this song on the 2010 tour.

They wont. They barely got through part of Mean Street...

Dave was in good form on the last tour and was impressive but even he couldn't pull THAT one off...

Here's an example of how difficult that song is live...

I still can't figure out why from the last tour they didn't use the echo when Dave did his screams in whatever songs. They did it pretty regular back in the day and it always made the live performance's sound sonic.

Yep, just like that. And MA did kick some serious ass.

[george]

[davehagarfan]

Michael didn't kick ass....Wolfie is the best bassist Ed and Dave have ever played with....the band has never sounded tighter or better.....Wolfie makes Billy sound like Alec John Such

[Mr Walker]

wolfie makes billy sound like alec john such

lmao!
