    Despite the shitty recording quality that gave me chills. That sounded as hungry as any recording I've heard from the 1979 shows.

    At this point it's borderline sinful that they're (or should I say Dave) is holding this back from the fans. Please pass this onto Dave if you're reading this, DDE rep.

    I have a feeling after Dave rests the pipes for a few weeks (or if he's developing nodes gets 'em scraped off!), they're gonna start pulling out more gems when/if the tour resumes...

    Dont want Ed getting it into his head that Wolf can take that job too. Have another kid Eddie. By the time they are old enough to replace Dave we here won't care anymore.

    The way a lot of you guys here feel about Light Up The Sky....exactly how I felt about Little Dreamer in 2007. Was a dream come true to finally see Van Halen play it live. (Seen Dave play it before once)

    You know as well as I that will never happen.

    By the way, based on available evidence there are only two songs (not counting the solos) that have been performed at every classic Van Halen show since their first non-California show in Chicago on March 3, 1978--Runnin' With The Devil and You Really Got Me. I don't think they're about to change that now.

    Agree it will never happen - it was their first hit, they're almost REQUIRED to play it. Trust me, they're probably sick of it too, but as someone I once worked for that had a few hits said "You think we LIKE playing that same tune night after night 20 years later? We have to, or the casual fans will be pissed!" They viewed it as the "curse" but recognized it was what helped them get to where they were, and they OWED it to the fans that wanted to hear it. Probably a similar deal here.

    Um, love the guy to death, but at 57 a flying leap off the drum riser might make him the NEXT member of VH to require hip-replacement surgery...

    I hear Eddie has an old one laying around somewhere. Just hope Kody isn't chewing on it.

    If thats the case, that sucks..This song should be played along with more new tunes..hate to say it, but Just let the band do a medley of some of em without Dave..I know that would be the beginning of the end but that day is coming anyway..
