    They probably never saw the real Van Halen.

    Or, they are so starved to relive their youth, like those old bags Momshell and Angel, they willingly accept and encourage an inferior product.

    I wonder what would be better received by these "fans". A clone up there singing the songs perfectly, or Dave butchering the songs, because he's Dave, and he can?

    Dave butchering them works for me. Or it's not Van Halen. I think he sounds promising on some of this 3rd show. It's his legacy. Up too him how he want's it to end.

    It's interesting you'd rather see and hear a shitty rendition of the songs, so it remains "Van Halen".

    How about if they put up a 1980 Dave hologram? Then you could really relive your youth, if you saw them in 1980.

    That version of "Unchained" isn't "awesome", but it is definitely acceptable. I'd pay a reasonable price to see them perform every song like that.

    I can`t begin to explain how killer that gig was last night , The band killed and Daves crazy high notes aside was spectacular. Dave was telling is usual goofy jokes and stories but the one that really hit home was at the beginning of EWS , he was talking to a lady in the audience and said " I`ll pretend that I`m on drugs and you can pretend to be Bill Cosby" immediately after that the video screens showed Al cracking up , kinda had to be there. Ed played like he was a from another universe , he was definitely the star last night

    I agree with you that Roth is the weak link right now but as I've said before you can't judge a live performance completely unless you were there. The last time I saw Dave live was on the Sam and Dave tour. He sang better but he didn't put on much of a show. If he could find a happy medium between then and now he'd be fine. Put a little more effort into singing and less into trying so hard to be the center of everyone's attention the entire time you're on stage.

    It might be the weed but I just thought how ironic it is that a grown man of your age that cruises around in a dune buggy would mention other people wanting to relive their youth. Maybe they just don't dig dune buggies.

    Ha ha!

    I'm reliving my youth every fucking day! In fact, I'm stuck in 1980! That's why it's so hard for me to accept 2015 Dave!

    Well I'm a reasonable guy unlike some of you guy's. I get that Dave is 60. His life is probably half over (yeah that was deep lol ) so all I want him to do is try his best singing. Don't need the leg kicks and jumping off the drum riser. I still like the fucked up stories and fucking with chicks in the first row. 1980 is over but Van Halen doesn't need to be if they all put in the effort. I think the version of Unchained was better on the live album for one reason only. Dave didn't start yelping in the middle of it like he did on this one. And notice where he does it ? Were he came in late in the middle. It's like his way of catching up or something. Don't come in late or just wait like the old day's for your next cue. DROP THE YELPING DAVE !! LUTS was really good. Never thought he could come close too pulling it off. He didn't the first night. This one was pretty decent. And that's all he has too do.

    Hey man, that's all I want. I'd like Dave to at least pretend he cares as much as I do.

    I just don't feel like Dave is putting 100% effort into this. His performances are improving, so maybe by the time he gets to the end of the tour, those folks won't be as ripped off as the folks that are paying full price for his rehearsal gigs.

    I don't give one fuck about the jumps and kicks and stuff. He did do a kick in that Unchained video though.

    I'm not saying you're saying it in the same way, but boy am I tired of people who don't know what's up saying bring Sammy back. As far as I can figure, Wolfgang doesn't have much interest in those years and that's why we have what we have. (Thank the Music Gods). It's like when non comic geeks wonder why Batman won't join the Avengers, or non football fans saying that they can't wait to see Tom Brady tackle Geno Smith.

    I agree. Think Dave's rehearsals are the first 10 gigs !! And that is lame on his part. Time will tell but he has already done a little better. I think Dance The Night Away has no chance though. Think he has that on butchered for good sadly. They can drop it. Honestly they should drop anything he struggles with. I don't think that would be everything yet. Would it ?? LOL !! I think the version of DDL from the second show was good. Stick too stuff he can pull off.

It's like when non comic geeks wonder why Batman won't join the Avengers, or non football fans saying that they can't wait to see Tom Brady tackle Geno Smith.
    Yeah that was a joke. Sort of. I mean if someone want's a different singer in Van Halen than write new songs and just do the Hag stuff. Leave Dave's stuff alone. It's NOT Van Halen without Dave !!! Never was, never will be.

    Unfortunately I don't think that's it at all. I think he thinks that's what the fans want. They just want to see Dave being Dave instead Dave as the lead singer in a rock and roll band that could have gone to the Zep, Stones, The Who level of status.

    Yeah, DTNA. Since the setlist is always out there, I think I'll time my piss for DTNA instead of the drum solo. I think I totally understand the faces Eddie makes, when I think of just about EVERY recent performance of DTNA. I think Wolf enjoys singing certain songs, regardless of Dave, and that's why they stay in the rotation.

    Hell, maybe Wolf had a secret meeting with Dave and Dave promised to give his performances a better shot.

    That chance ended in 1985.

    Is that true or is that just a story someone made up so Ed could save face? When the tour is over and someone asks Ed about getting back with Dave he can always say he did it for the kid instead of he actually needed him back in the band to pad his bankroll.

    Zep was together about the same time as CVH but they had the advantage of Page being a veteran rockstar from the get go. They were recording artists longer. If Roth had stayed with VH another couple years and albums would they have gotten to that level?

    The kid listens to rock music he doesn't like the elevator music years.

Nothing has produced as much negativity in the history of Van Halen (Hagar included) as Dave's pissformance on the live album and this tour.

    He's driven not only the casual fans away, but what's most damning is his success in even driving the most hardened "stuck-in-1984" pure Roth sack-worshipers away as well. I never thought in a million years that his last battalion of "to-the-grave" fans would desert him, but beside the 5 to 10 or so people who still post on this board regularly, Dave really HAS succeeded in murdering what was left of his dwindled credibility. And, even the last 5 to 10 people that still go ga-ga over him on this board actually sadly admit from time to time how much he has lost every ounce of what made David Lee Roth "David Lee Roth." There are still 2 or 3 holdouts that won't stop sucking at the tete of 1984 who actually type the word "swagger" in a serious way, but for the most part...even the most fanatical of Dave's followers have actually seen the light...or really, the pitch black sadness of the death of one's career simply because NO ONE CARES anymore. And the reason no one cares is because Dave simply doesn't care to even try. Because if he IS trying and he STILL sounds like a dying moon-possum being slowly crushed in a 90 ton hydraulic press, then what the hell is the point?

    If at the beginning of a tour THIS board is deader than Ted Kennedy's booze-embalmed rotted beef-corpse, you KNOW something is literally dead in the world of DLR...in all actuality, that should be DNR.
    You just moved up to premiere league troll.
    This post alone moves you up with the greats like Flappo the grate!

    That's a different kind of truth right there.

    Dave's performances are just NOT acceptable...

    And I'm gonna trash him until he gets his shit together !

    It's a tough love..... DAVE OR THE FUCKING GRAVE!!

    I'm gonna say another thing LOUD and fucking clear...

    Make no mistake where my loyalty remains...

    I have literally worshipped Roth since I was 5 years old...

    I thought he was the coolest motherfucker in the world...

    I saw my first Van Halen show in Jacksonville 1984 with autograph....

    So fucking awesome... It's burning , embedded into my memory forever....

    Never EVER spent a penny on Hagar...

    So if this ship sinks im going down with the motherfucking toastmaster general....

    Come on Dave get your shit together....

    Even if you have to sit in a chair and just concentrate on belting out the classics...

    And for the Hagarelli family....

    Eat us and fucking smile!!!

    2 albums out of 6 selling over 10 million copies. Hard to argue with that.
