    Here's the '84 live version ---- I bet $10 the 2012 live version is just as good or better (keeping in mind 3 members are close to 60)

      I remember it in the US Festival footage but I would think they already had it at that point.

        Twitter is busy with tweets from people leaving the show... all were amazed, saying the band, and Eddie in particular blew them away
        "I wanna take this time to say that this is real whiskey here... the only people who put iced tea in Jack Daniel's bottles is The Clash, baby!"

            The one thing nobody's mentioned about GGB is how Al fuckin' slams on that track.

            Kwame's probably staring at Al's drumkit like he's looking at God right now.....

              South America '83 ? I think I remember reading he hummed the riff into a tape recorder in the closet while Val slept.

                He was getting into the electronic drums on that album. He is great on it.

                      I'm in the minority here, but 1984 is my fav of the 6 pack. I think it has to do with my age & that's really when I found VH for myself. That caused me to buy the previous 5 and fall in love with them. But my 1st car & high school with 1984 cassette the whole time....special days indeed.

                      Probably why Pyromania is my fav Def Lep as opposed to the older ones too.

                          I hear you on that. 1984 was my first VH album after seeing the Jump vid when it came out. Then I went and got all the earlier ones.

                              Same with me ---- "1984" got me started on the road to becoming a lifelong Roth-era VH fan ---- so it holds a special place in my heart
