      As for the audio synch, let us just say that they apparently did not go for absolutely "perfect" lip-synch. Slopie is going to have a cow now.

          The video rocks, Eddie sounds great, his solo is excellent and I love the outro.

          Dave in full form!!! These guys showed they still had the magic in 1996 and they show it 16 years later just how special they still are TOGETHER.

          Bravo!!!

            Well, I've listened to it a couple of times... I'll buy it from iTunes.

            But... Is it just me, or does it sound a bit like a prolonged farewell?
            Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                was about time ...

                about the lipsync issue, here's one of my favorite quotes from Dave himself "I forgot the fucking words"

                sound like an instant classic to me, covers about everything I expected

                anybody got a clue why there literally no coverage in Germany about this historic event ?

                  do you expect this band to die with their boots on? one day there will be a farewell and since then I'm happy with what they still bring on the table...

                      There is magic in this one. Get your best headphones and listen several times.
                      Suddenly it will hit you. If it is their farewell album, I will be very happy if all
                      the tracks have that magic that Van Halen only seems to be able to conjure.
                      Im getting chill rushes so bad now after listening to it for 24 hours that
                      I have to keep stopping myself and going off for a short walk, with a smile
                      as big as the fucking sun ! Never thought we would get this, but never gave
                      up hope. Coyote my old mate, get back to us after a few more listens
                      BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
                      Love ya Mary Frances!

                        Likewise, but there's just something weird about this track. Can't put my finger on it...

                        Nah, I'm just overanalyzing. I wanna hear the rest of the album!

                          wow ... what a rush ...

                          Thx DLN !

                          Back in August, I contacted one of the more rocking radio stations here in Hamburg and nobody seemed to be interested at all.

                          Yesterday, I sent them another mail and today I sent them even the link to the vimeo clip, but still not a single reply ... :/

                          go figure
                          Despite my nickname causing confusion, I'm not female ...

                              The video was already posted in the "Official Tattoo Review Thread."

                              I sense a thread closure coming...
