Before we get to SIR WARF'S ( star of cafe wha? ) EPIC review....
I'd like to give a big FUCK YOU to turdabummer.... mediocre mod who arrived here several years late to the game....
Does it bother you turd, that I contribute much more to this site than you ever had or ever will?
Look at the front page and scroll down, it's all MY POSTS AND MATERIAL?!
Just remember long before you registered here you were sitting at a KRISPY KREME donuts with your F A T ass eating all the inventory....
Remember that I was here first as an ORIGINAL webmaster building this place with sarge... yes i built it... not in my own words... but in sarge's own words...
So shut the fuck up F A T ass.... ( we all have seen the popgears ) and enjoy the review.....
live in front of your naked steaming eyes from that shithole you call cleveland...... lol
Wow good way to kill the chill vibes
fuck your fucking framing
oh and F A T boy hasn't even donated either.....
he's really worthless to this place
anyways... review coming up soon
better yet, pm it to kristy.
Von and Sesh called you out as well. Go give them a "fuck you," you big pussy!
You've done FAR more damage to this place than good over the years, but hey, you donated, so you were entitled.
And I'm not fat because I eat sweets, it's because light beer in mass quantities isn't really that light!
I should replace your user tag with "replaced by mediocrity!" lol
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
Awesome Ice Cream Man.
Dave's voice is leaps and bounds better than the live cd .. Even his banter seems better
Other than not going off into WTF range, his voice is the same if not raspier but it seems to be working great because he is able to stay in the range and it fits his natural Blues style... and the dude might not be able to scream like a banshee anymore, but he has a mean rough scream during this show which he started using on this tour every so often which I have not heard since "A Lil' Ain't Enough"

I got lost in the...

i don't think kristy liked the show...
What an idiot.
Last I checked, a vest doesn't have sleeves. If it did, it would be a jacket or shirt, no?With his fresh Japanese tattoos peeking from beneath his sleeveless vest
Same kind of assmuncher who didn't realize that, assless chaps, was perhaps one of the goddamned stupidest grouping of words in history. The first person who wrote that should be dug up hung then shot...and it has continued for decades.
I saw the word ,vapid, ( I ran as fast as I could away from the page) in the second paragraph very pathetic word only used by cunts...no I'm wrong wannabe cunts too ultra superior in their writing skills.
Roth On!

Audio is up at Dime, coupled with a pretty shitty review.

Notes: We'd previously seen the mighty Van Halen in 2007 in Chicago, then again in early 2008 in Denver and figured that was all we needed to see with the Dave-led lineup; we skipped their 2012 Denver area performance. But, when they announced the 2015 tour with a stop at Red Rocks, both my wife and I agreed that the venue choice made one more Van Halen performance a necessity for us.
But, the truth is: at $185+ per ticket, I'm not sure that it was worth it. We got rained on the entire trip up to Morrison, and the rain fell all through the opener, Kenny Wayne Shepherd (due to the rain, we didn't try to record him). Fortunately, it stopped just before VH took the stage. But, while they have a lot of great songs, virtually all of them were ruined with mid-song breakdowns where Dave just TALKED. I've read other comments from earlier performances on this tour criticizing him
for this, but, I didn't realize how seriously this messes up the flow of the show until I saw it for myself. I mean, I will tell you that the band had the crowd eating out of their hands - until the first breakdown during Everybody Wants Some. At first, I thought, 'this is cool, kind of like The Doors, where he's just freestylin',' but, by the time he did it again during Feel Your Love Tonight, the crowd was definitely getting restless. By the time he got to the story about him and Ozzy during
the 1978 tour, people were starting to leave - the show was REALLY running long with Dave's constant rapping, and it was killing the momentum.
When they broke down AGAIN during Unchained - one of my fave VH songs - I decided I'd had enough and went to the bathroom (clipping the mike to my wife's shirt and handing her the recorder - this occurred at the start of Somebody Get Me a Doctor as well). When they broke down YET AGAIN during You Really Got Me, Dave even says 'have you ever wondered why there are all
these slow spots in these songs?' I heard someone behind me yell 'NOOOO!'
Eddie launched into his extended solo, and at that point, my wife was ready to call it quits, but, I convinced her that we were near the end - I'm a guitar player, but, 10 minutes of public masterbation on the guitar does not impress me nearly as much at 44 as it did when I was 17; especially when EVERY. SINGLE. SONG. has already been spread out past the breaking point.
I know that there are a lot of guitar players that wait breathlessly for Eddie to break into his solo, but, the screaming banshees around us notwithstanding, there were many more people streaming to the restrooms or for the exits. At this late point in his career, I think Eddie would do well to understand that "less is more."
Some good things - Alex is an amazing drummer; having seen mostly over 50 acts of late, I was very impressed that he does not seem to have lost anything, and he kept the tempos up. Wolf is a stud on bass and backing vocals - my wife also plays bass guitar and she was totally blown away by his playing. I'd rather have Michael Anthony but...blah blah blah. Also: Ed looks good and sounds good - his playing was top notch, and he had quite a bit of energy. I truly like Dave in Van Halen, and his "singing" does not bother me as much as some - my wife was totally annoyed that he doesn't seem to sing his own lyrics! But, seriously, Dave - lose 90% of the during-song chit-chat.
My take is that Van Halen has a super strong set of 90 or so minutes of Roth-era material that they ballooned out past 2 hours, which left our group ready for the end when it arrived - and, from what I saw, quite a few people around us had left by the end as well. That's my 2 cents - your mileage may vary. I have at least two copies of every Van Halen album and know them all pretty well. I've seen them (and taped) now 3 times and collect all of their shows up through the Hagar-led 2004 reunion - but, this show left me feeling like I've seen them for the last time. Little Guitars is my favorite VH song, and I was delighted to see it back in the set, and the rarities were OK, too - though, placing more obscure songs like In A Simple Rhyme and Dirty Movies before Dave's LOOOONG story probably isn't ideal. Lots and lots of bathroom breaks were observed during that stretch.
It was nice that the rain stopped, but, the wind and breeze continued throughout, which was throwing the mix around the whole time - this is reflected in the recording. Also, there was one super annoying woman behind me to my right who insisted on screaming - off key - pretty much the entire time; by the end, I had a pounding headache from her screeching, which might have
also had an impact on mine and my wife's enjoyment of the concert. By and large, I kept quiet, though, you do hear my wife and I talk a little; generally, all things considered, the recording is not bad and a pretty accurate capture of the show we saw.
One last question, that my wife asked me about: so, what does all this mean for the Van Hagar material? Does VH just continue to pretend that those songs don't exist and never play them again? That's what I think happens, but, my wife made the great point that 'there's at least 10-15 songs from that period that get played on the radio that people remember and want to hear - doesn't Eddie, at some point, have to bring those back???'
you mean rain?
And that reviewer is fucked. The mix wasn't off due-to wind. What fucking wind? It had to have been @8:45-9:00PM when the storms cleared out and it was more humid than usual but what fucking wind? A light breeze after a thunderstorm is a "wind?" I've heard better sound at other shows (and better lights, too) but I though Eddie sounded clear even if he looked like he was winging at times. Roth was just deplorable. Most of the time he looked lost like an old man who walked away from a nursing home. If there was anything off-setting about the mix it was more likely the sound guy fighting with Roth's voice all night. It did hurt my ears at times but yeah, I'll take that over any Schleppy tune. Al was on top form and I never thought of him as being much of a drummer. But you could tell it was Al and Ed who were carrying the weight and doing their best to make up for Roth's fuckiness.
Still I enjoyed that show even if I didn't not care much for Roth and his annoying antics. 'She's The Woman' was the highlight. As least for me. Would not go to see them again - at least with Roth at the helm.
