    The smallest guy in the picture is "the biggest idiot in the sport" (of rock'n'roll management) - Irving Azoff. Yep, that's him with the glasses. Next to him, on the left, is Jimmy Iovine, president of Interscope. This was taken to publicise their deal with Interscope back before ADKOT was released.

    Who are the others ... I have no idea who the guys on either side of Dave are.

    Hang on - there's a report here:

    http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...-iovine-263283

    Steve Berman (Interscope Geffen A&M vice chairman) - that's the guy who looks like he ate all the cakes - and Jim Urie (president and CEO, Universal Music Group Distribution).

    And there you have it.

    I was able hang out at the rehearsal in NY for the bluegrass project since they needed to play about 3 songs for various media gigs to promote. I would have to rummage through shit to find his name but Dave indeed had a vocal coach there. The guy said he had worked with Dave since the end of 2004. So age, health, effects of some loss elasticity in chords due to bad mechanics etc... are an issue but simple technique and choices are a reason for optimism.

    Just a personal view, during that time period he had laser focus and in hindsight probably already knew he was getting close to finalizing his return. I do think Dave is simply an awful winner at times and after pulling off 07 and Eddie was the issue he won. Just a hunch but seems consistent. Does his best with his back to the wall but endzone dances too much
    Good take. I think the biggest issue for Dave in 2012 was that he just wasn't healthy. Between the multi-layered clothing and scarves, blower rants, gargling during/between songs, eating wedges of citrus fruit during/between songs, constantly clearing his throat, etc., I just don't think he was all there physically. That said, I think Dave also made conscious choices that were independent of his health (changing the vocal melody of DTNA being the most egregious example) because he was still doing them even when he was presumably healthy. (Why he was doing them in the first place is the great mystery)

    As for 07-08, he was in top form, so he obviously put in the work to get there. Did he put in the same level of work for 2012? I don't know. He had less to prove for that tour, but I don't know if that affected his preparation. I think he still has enough left in the pipes to be effective, but he needs to get out of his own goddamned way.

    I agree with health issues as most folks do not wear 3 layers of clothes and scarfs on a stage that is 100 degrees under the lights and doesn't sweat. Even given some form of physical challenge the choice to go up rather than down in compensating was an awful way to adjust regardless of the reason why he had to adjust. He actually sounded the better in that 2005 - 06 era than 2007 - 08. Heard him breakout DOA during that time period at Westbury and was the best vocal I ever heard him sing at anytime.

    He seemed to wander around the stage a lot from the 2012 vids I watched like he wasn't sure what to do. Playing with his ears often, ear plug in and out, signalling for different props, playing with his clothes...just generally distracted. Hope to see him more on point the next go round. Took a shit kicking on the web.

    You damn straight I am buying this album, tragedy and triumph is what history is made of... and Van Halen is hard rock history in the making, hopefully Dave is then able to get off his ass on the Island of Elba and make a comeback after this Waterloo lol

    I would have considered getting it if they had at least picked a song from different shows. Kind of a highlight reel of the tunes..they could have even kept the fucking boat cover and called it Live around the World...Far better efforts out there to put on a disc that will be " capturing " the definitive Vh live show..dont touch up a thing ..live and raw but pick your best sounding work..geezzus..

    Its amazing the shit you guys talk here. The fat girl from Heart? Dude she kills LIVE! Sammy still sounds pretty damn good and you trash him, why? Because Eddie was pissed Mikey was his friend. The Van Halen's are dicks and DLR is a flat out whack job with a shit voice. The man you idol is not only a tool but makes it embarrassing to be a VH fan. Just awful. Close this shit down just like DLR did with his site. Its over.

    Listen, I have been one of his worst critics on this fucked up "Definitive" live album bullshit, but he's not one of the "worst voices in rock". He just needs to stay in his range, and stay more true to the original recordings. Dave was never a singers singer. That's why he made some of the most timeless and legendary songs in the history of rock and roll.

    Don't let Dave's "dorky" stage and public persona fool you into believing he is "Diamond Dave" 24/7.

    Fuck Sammy Hagar. He's a washed up, Republican, tequila salesman (or is he a coffee salesman or a rum salesman now, I really can't keep up with his bullshit) who thinks his 30 year old synthesizer choked cheesy love ballads are still relevant to anything that matters.

    Fuck him and anybody who defends him.

    He's a 67 year old who had a pretty good run in the music business and was a pretty successful self made businessman. He still out making music and frankly looking pretty good, happy, and healthy at his age. What are you doing now?

That said, I think Dave also made conscious choices that were independent of his health (changing the vocal melody of DTNA being the most egregious example) because he was still doing them even when he was presumably healthy. (Why he was doing them in the first place is the great mystery)

    As for 07-08, he was in top form, so he obviously put in the work to get there. Did he put in the same level of work for 2012? I don't know. He had less to prove for that tour, but I don't know if that affected his preparation. I think he still has enough left in the pipes to be effective, but he needs to get out of his own goddamned way.
    I'll give Dave an A for effort. Years of cigarette/pot smoking take their toll and age is a factor. I was listening to their 1978 London show and Dave sounded great with his elk in mating season wail. That's gone. Father Time took it.
