I've had that same thought. How fuckin' sweet would that be. But can't see Ed doing a Vai tune.

Ed won't do a Vai tune ----- but he'll do a shitty Spamborita solo song in concert ??

[Momshell]

is it possible to vicariously enjoy something like that for somebody else across one's own sexual orientation? hmmm......

(shit, no metaphysics before happy hour)

LOL - that's why I wrote (for me).....you can take a pic and not at all enjoy it but post it for me (and the other ladies here ) to enjoy - use my hand, I won't look!!!

Get that shit outta here!!! Scared the shit out of me!

Ed's rule has always been and will always be...whoever is in the band right fuckin' now is the greatest and everyone else is dead to him. Great thing for all of us, he's got the right guy in the band right now.

[TJMKID]

Get that shit outta here!!! Scared the shit out of me!

Sorry!

Just trying to prove a point ---- if Ed will do a Spambo song at a show --- he surely would do a Vai tune "Damn Good' and make it his own !!!

[damngoodtimes]

use my hand, I won't look!!!

Well played, young lady. Well played!

Yeah but you're forgetting that Vai AND Dave wrote "Damn Good" ---- so by your criteria Ed should have no qualms about playing it.

Besides that ---- it's a kick ass heartfelt song about the Mighty Halen glory daze!

[Momshell]

Well played, young lady. Well played!

Thank you very much! And thank you especially for the "young"!

[Momshell]

It would be nice, but I won't hold my breath. If they played that I'd be crying so hard they'd have to carry me out...shit, I cried at the end of my last show during Jump - imagine if it was Damn Good?!

[damngoodtimes]

Thank you very much! And thank you especially for the "young"!

I may be dumb, but I'm not stupid.

[Momshell]

I guess it's a safe bet that the show's over now. No big surprises. I gotta go to sleep. It's been another fun evening with you guys. See you in the am - with YouTubes!

[TJMKID]

I'm with ya ---- there'd be sniffles all through the arena ---- tears would flow like the Nile !!


YEAH WE WAS ACTING LIKE A COUPLE OF KIDS ---- GOOD TO REMEMBER ---- YOU KNOW THAT IT IS

you know I'd love to hear it, given my handle and all, but I'm not holding my breath. I never really got the sense that Ed cared much for Vai. Also, I'm pretty sure that Dave and the brothers have an agreement: none of my solo stuff in exchange for no Van Hagar. Deal!

[Momshell]

I may be dumb, but I'm not stupid.

[katina]

Thank you everybody.

Full Bug, Hail, GGB, HEH? I just got home, Anybody know?

[Light Em' Up!]

I'm thinking it is totally possible to do that damngoodtimes! You can do that especially for Momshell....as for me, you can just vibe that LUTS gets played!

[IceCreamBlondie]

Thanks man! I'll be hitting 6 total, counting New Orleans in June...

You lucky guy!!!

[Light Em' Up!]

Full Bug, Hail, GGB, HEH? I just got home, Anybody know?

All we know is that Momshell is disappointed because there were no shirtless bibs tonight

[IceCreamBlondie]

Momshell is my pick for newbie of the year for sure!

Agreed!!!

[IceCreamBlondie]

or at least Dave shirtless! (sorry...couldn't contain myself! )

Yeah Yeah..that's right! And how about slightly pantless when he sings Tattoo?

[Sensible Shoes]

Yeah Yeah..that's right! And how about slightly pantless when he sings Tattoo?

Just take it all off and go nekkid.

[DONNIEP]

I'm still hoping they replace ICM with "Damn Good" ---- Dave, Ed, and Wolf all sitting on stools with acoustics ---- photos of '78-'84 playing on the jumbo screen ---- TEARS, PEOPLE !!!

If they played Damn Good...I'd just about lose my fucking mind. God help the people around me at the show...

[Light Em' Up!]

Just take it all off and go nekkid.

You girls are funny!!!

[Light Em' Up!]

If they played Damn Good...I'd just about lose my fucking mind. God help the people around me at the show...

I'd be in this state of mind if they played LUTS...good God, just let it happen!!!

[SNIPER]

Um, you are sitting in the same room as me. You can just tell me. hehe

[IceCreamBlondie]

If they played Damn Good...I'd just about lose my fucking mind. God help the people around me at the show...

Agreed, plus:

If they would play Damn Good, In a Simple Rhyme and Stay Frosty, I'd really lose my fucking mind too.....

[IceCreamBlondie]

Vain, thanks a ton for the pics!

And thanks all for the conversation...!!!!

It's like being there without being there.....I'll take that until they come to LA!

[SNIPER]

They play damn good at every show they play.

[Light Em' Up!]

Um, you are sitting in the same room as me. You can just tell me. hehe

I think I just told you that Momshell and Shoes would be thrilled for a strip tease from Dave :-)

[katina]

You girls are funny!!!

You just made me feel young again!!! thank you very much

[DONNIEP]

I'd be in this state of mind if they played LUTS...good God, just let it happen!!!

Normally I wouldn't do this in a review thread, but this is about as close as you can get right now and I thought you'd appreciate it.

We ARE young!!!

[VAiN]

Holy shit, so much fun! VH gave me 4 amazing nights in Florida and one hell of a send off show! What can I say, the band looked and sounded amazing. All smiles all night! Dave was in top form. Nothing but yeah!!!!

[RealTwisted]

Eddie's opinion of Vai: "Just a gun hired by Dave to rip off his shit"

Thanks Donniep!!! It is appreciated...it will passify me....for now. Sorry about the whining about it...it is just THE song that made me fall in love with The Mighty Van Halen...now we just need THEM to play it!
