Picking Kool and the Gang as an opening act only further proves Dave's genius ---- "I've got a surgically-implanted disco beat"

Songs like "Cherish" and "Joanna" are a little too Van Hagarish sappy for me ---- so a good time for last-minute piss break and beer run before VH storms the stage.

They'd be retarded not to finish their set with "Celebration" ---- but they also had radio hits like "Get Down On It" that will get the VH crowd boogey-in' in the aisles!

Just remember Dave's secret to becoming popular during the club days ---- "Van Halen was the only band making rock music you could dance to"

1. Tonight (badass groove & smokin' guitar solo)
2. Misled
3. Get Down On It
4. Ladie's Night
5. Fresh
6. Too Hot
7. Stone Love

inevitab;y they'll do Celebration and maybe Joanna, but I doesn't matter. I'm just really glad they're on this tour.

"It's all Kool And The Gang, baby!"

When I was in highschool if I didn't like the tune playing on my local hard rock radio station I had one of my presets tuned to the local soul station this was before rap was the predominant music ( hate to use that term -music-...rap is just one -artist- hate to use that term, copying what the last hit was note for note rewritten with different words, they are all just copies of what the latest electro trac is)..anywhoooo...the soul station was a mix of old motown and new disco and r&b, just some of the finest music to hit vinyl...love Cool and The Gang..long time hit making band that plays some mean Brass!.

The 70's baby! and I ain't only talking about the music....mmmmmm...furry..lol

Some of my friends are questioning that choice as well, but "Jungle Boogie" is F*ing cool, I don't care who you are... Van Halen opening acts are (and with the exception of a few shows with AIC, IIRC?) and always have been all about getting sh*tfaced before the REAL attraction hits the stage anyway!

[sadaist]

The boys from Kool & The Gang are going to make more money for themselves on this tour since..........well, ever. Good for them & good on VH. Gonna be a fun tour for sure.



ps - Dave just bringing them so he doesn't have to send his guy out in each town to find a bag of weed.

My answer is: Irrelevant Question

VA will be drinking in the concourse !!!

Any good opening act only has to meet 2 criteria:

1) Be good enough to prevent the audience from falling asleep
2) Dont be so good that we can't sneak away for a bathroom break or a beer run

Kool and the Gang fits the bill perfectly ---- Dave made the right choice

[Jagermeister]

[jhale667]

Dave picked them especially for YOU...

[FORD]

Jungle Boogie is the only Kool & The Gang song I ever really liked.

A surprising choice for an opening act, yet very "Dave" somehow.

Though Eddie must be a fan too, just listen to the riff of the Van Hagar song "Best of Both Worlds".

[Jagermeister]

I obviously missed something which is understandable with everything going on. Did they actually announce this to be true?
