I'm guessing any major set list changes won't be occuring untill a full on second leg is under way. I just don't understand why they would be soundchecking certain songs and not playing them live. Is it just to stay sharp on certain tunes or is it Dave refusing to play them? I hope it's not the latter.

I swear it seems like hes saying "stare down"..like hes getting shitty looks from somebody..steps over a minute later..mentions it again with a double FU..Comment

I read that Dave doesn't do the sound checks....so Wolfie is pulling out songs to try...or so thats what it sounded like is happeningComment

I'll let Poj handle the review....
Great meeting everyone at Fat Pig's.... Wrning's still the same trailer park trash that he was 5 years ago....
I wanted to pass on some of the highlights of our conversation with our DDE rep between sets.....
1. "As Is" and "Light Up The Sky" are simply soundcheck songs.... It wasn't said verbatim, but don't expect to hear them live.....
2. The only video being shot so far on the tour is for the shows themselves.... So what that basically means is that if/when a DVD is planned, those plans will happen fast....
3. The blower rant is NO SCHTICK.... And as others have already said, the blowers were off, it was humid as FUCK in there, and guess what, there was no blower rant.....
4. Just an FYI, it was reiterated, no one is getting backstage, at least from Dave....
5. And last, but certainly not least, and this is from Dave, he LOVES the passion you fuckers bring !!Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

Gut feeling told me it wasn't schtick ---- as soon as I saw Dave stopping songs to launch a rant.
In the old days ---- he only launched "fuck yer wife" rants IN BETWEEN songs.
So unless he decided to suddenly become an unclassy asshole like Axl Rose ---- I knew the blowers were truly fucking up his voice.Comment

Why don't a bunch of Army Troop come to LA for Homecoming Show, what perfect time for DVD and if this tight now can barely imagine how stellar it's going to be June 1st. Endless options for pre & post show fun.....Comment

Listen...I'll get to that conversation with the DDE rep in the review. It was incredible having that opportunity...and it was such a down to earth conversation. She was answering questions, and chatting, and it was extremely clear that there is a voice in the Dave camp for us folk...and there's a presence here at the site...
I can't even begin to say how much I appreciate that...but again...more in the review...and you know...it'll take a bit of time...a week...maybe less...maybe more..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."Comment
