    Best Shows from 07-08 Tour

    Just out of my own curiosity, I'm digging back to the 07-08 tour to check some things out. Instead of wading through umpteen vids on youtube, I'm turning to the Army for show suggestions, good (or bad).

    Thanks!

    Avoid the Las Vegas show at all costs.

      Im telling you Reno 08 was the best. Not just because I was there but it was the first show back after the "break" and it was tight as shit!

          Aw hell, this is easy. Everybody knows it was Rosemont. I'm not just saying that 'cause I was there.....fuck it, yeah I am. It still kicked unholy ass and turned out to be one of the best shows from early in the tour.
          Allstate Arena has been a hotspot for Van Halen so far. They've always knocked the fuckin' walls off of that joint everytime.

              I'd agree Rosemont was the best
              Lauderdale was the worst

                I like that Montreal? show where they were goofing around a lot and a bunch of the DDLR crew road tripped. Lou recorded it. Good recording and entertaining show.

                  I only have the opinion of the Reno 08 show, because thus far it's the only one I've seen live. Personally, I thought it was a bad ass show. The band was super tight, every one looked healthy and happy to be playing, and it was kind of a "smaller" venue. I was also front row, and having Dave stand right in front of me singing was pretty awe inspiring.

                    I caught the Vancouver show early Dec 07. It was excellent...and nott just because you can hear me "woohooing" on one of the Youtube vids of HFT either

                      Complete agreement. I was disappointed in the lack of effort by all. They redeemed themselves later in Omaha that tour. KC this time around was killer.

                        True dat. Dave didn't do the "hat trick" starting with the vegas show.

                          Thanks for the suggestions. Earlier today I was watching some vids from the Baltimore show in '08 and it seemed like a pretty good show. They threw Crossroads in the middle of SGMAD and Dave was in classic Dave form- telling the crowd that "Wolf will get some Baltimore leg tonight for sure" which got a good laugh out of Ed.

                              I vote Montreal 07. Great recording by Lou. Roth quote - "Is this a great show tonight or fuckin' what?"

                              Oh dear.
