Actually, the crowd looks huge, not to mention out of control! Does anyone have any background on this show like the attendance?

I don't have any attendance figures to share, but I know if Van Hagar played that show RIGHT NOW, the attendance figures would probably triple!

OK, OK... I'm kidding... I couldn't help myself

I have never used bit torrent before, but I downloaded it and gave it a shot trying to download this concert. I have a cable connection, but it is slow as shit downloading this. It is 30% done and that is with two sessions totally at least 20hrs of download time. What gives? I really want to get this to work, so that i can start downloading some great stuff. I have a dvd burner, and would be willing to burn it for you guys once I get it.

nobody can help me here? Why is my download so slow?

takes time it is a big file.

I have been leaving it on from the time I get home at 6pm to 9am on cable modem. Tonight will be the third night and I am at 31%! Is this normal for bittorrent? Might be time to hit Kazza.

Yuo won't find it on Kazaa bro.

Keep going and remember it also depends on the speed of

the others online. I lucked out and got it in one day.

Don't give up!

At least now i know that this is normal. For some reason I thought bit torrent is fast. I don't mind leaving it on. If it takes a week...that is fine with me. I would love nothing more that a good quality DLR era VH boot, that I can burn to dvd and watch on my home dvd player.

Kazaa sucks and even if you did find it there, you'd get a shitty .mpg. Is that what you really want?

[Matt White]

Yup, got the Brazil show and the US festival. Makes ya really nastalgic for the REAL DEAL! Sure wish the Van Halens would see the light and release something from the 81 or 80 tours with DAVE! Or, better yet, do like Jimmy Page and put together a chronological DVD that covered ALL of the DAVE YEARS!

[NightProwler]

You know how it goes, brother...as long as people are willing for hand over their hard earned dollars for "van hagar"...ediie and shemp continue laughing all the way to the bank.

Fuckin-A, Dude........ The only thing i don't like about it is when Ed turns his back to the audience during his impromptu solo where he and Alex go off in a "What The Fuck?" solo together, lol.

He is clearly noodling, kind of like what he does on the current Tour, but it sounded better in '83.

[VH LINKS SUCKS]

What the fuck?

Lou, sent you a pm!
And what the fuck is with Torrent? Downloaded the entire show and played back in VLC media player and the video is so choppy that it goes through so many different clips not playing the entire file!
Is there another player to use that works with the download?

[nutts]

I thought when it was through downloading it would sequece itself in place.So far what I've got (17%) looks like that, scrambled.
