    Maybe there is something with the blower thing after all. Every singer I have jammed with always bitches about running a fan in the jam room. I always just thought they were being crybaby pussies.

      I went to the show last night, at times it was spot on. Eddie was sounding great, Al and Wolfie rounded out the bottom end and Dave was entertaining. The only issue I have is when Dave goes into high register mode. He has that range in short bursts, they need to drop China Town period. I think they could pull off hbsd, while the rapid fire delivery might tax Dave it doesn't climb up the range ladder to tax his pipes. I also would have liked to have heard Mean Streets over Pretty Woman. The treats for me where outta love, women in love and the full bug. Overall a very solid performance just wanted a bit more !!!!!!

                To see a band that close that you have been a fan of from 1978 to now is what was life changing. The only thing between me and guitar hero Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth was air.

                    Or perhaps on the way to/from the venue his car stereo "returned the favor?"

                      Well yes, majority are crybaby pussies... plus it's an ego thing. Whiny cunts just can't stand sharing a room with anything that can blow or suck the air out of a room better than they can...

                        Hmmmm. Well I can only hope I wasn't considered "whiny cunt" material back in my small time gig days, but I will say that I would've loved an electric fan. Small clubs with small stages means if your 6 feet tall, that puts you about 2 or 3 feet from the stage lights. I remember it being so friggin hot, that my throat would feel like a cracked Arizona. The more H2O you drank, the faster you dry out. Ya couldn't win. Atleast the guy with LGD didn't have to worry about his precious amp over heating!

                                From that clip I'd say the blower rant is just showbiz schtick... been repeated too many times.
