I just can't get over how PERFECT that picture is. WARF just embodies everything that is great about this place.

Warf is living the dream....great stuff for such a deserving long time fan!!
Glad to see Dave is drinking again. I was getting worried.

Wow!!!! just wow!! I really can not believe all of this. I became a VH fan in 2000 with no hope of a reunion and after this today I'm totally awestruck its like a dream come true....I havent posted here in ages upon ages and a lot of the times i was kind of a young stupid dickhole...but now is one of the few times that everyone in rotharmy can stand together in sheer utter agreement that Van Halen is BACK!!!!

hopefully God will ressurect you

Many Thanks GEM !
Lots of focus on WARF tonight, but your efforts are making us
all smile like chesire cats.
I like the new/old song, just curious if Dave
was lost in the mix (as you could hear it there)
or if its just the end result of what technology you had on hand ?
Band sounds tight. Congrats on being there, and for
giving us some awesome material to help take us "there"
too..
I cant imagine the album being anything other than incredible
after seeing the bonding, musicianship and enthusiasm.
The boys are definately back in town !
BABY PANA 2 IS Coming !! All across the land, let the love and beer flow !
Love ya Mary Frances!
Thanks GreenEyedMurder! Awesome vid! Gotta go watch it again! Thanks again!
Me and my son are gonna try to make it to the Dallas show...
Well, ,I have no more "thanks" to give, so I will do so MANUALLY.
Thanks to VAN FUCKING HALEN! for putting on such a killer show and making it an incredible event.
Thanks to DDE and the mysteriouys "REP" who has helped us out so much after our years and years of patient and agonized waiting.
Thanks to POJO, VA BEACH, SARGE, and every other Mod, Admin, Boss, Owner, etc. that has had anything to do with Roth Army over the years. It is because of you ALL that this evening even happened.
Thanks to WARF for TRULY representing Roth Army.
Thanks to Gem for her input, video, photos, reviews, and well, just for being there!
Well, thanks to just everybody involved in this. It is a legendary and truly historical moment for all of us.
Okay folks...for those of you wondering how the band is getting along...here's the AP search for VH photos...there are tons of pics from tonight's show (WARF's shot is an AP shot, and he's in a few more...you see as you page through)...
but the key is the band...LOOK AT THE FUCKING BAND IN EVERY SHOT...AND including Dave and Eddie...it's pretty fucking clear...
THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY LIKE EACH OTHER...
Not sure if it's good or bad...but...
and I wouldn't have said this 15 years ago...
I think it's a good thing...holy fuck...

"Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."
Some great shots of Ed and his boy...
seriously...I have a son...and can tell you...how that must feel for both of them...to be performing together...
I know some SHRED Edward (and I haven't called him that in years...by the way) for the Michael coup de tat...
but some of these pics make you just fucking get it...
I love the pic where WARF has his fist in the air. The caption SHOULD read: "Van Halen members Eddie Van Halen, WARF, and David Lee Roth perform at Cafe Wha? in New York, Thursday, Jan. 5, 2012. (AP Photo/Charles Sykes)"
Good lord....even a review in the Speakeasy section of the MOTHERFUCKING WALL STREET JOURNAL???????
THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!
THIS IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE! THIS IS EVERYTHING WE EVER HOPED FOR (well, getting mikey back would be the complete deal, but you know what I mean).
FUCKING ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!
Damn. I am just repeating myself now. How many ways are there to describe astonishingly kickass?
The bass drives the train on that song. Wolf found the funk and did a good job. Yeah I called it as I saw it the last tour. He was fat, sloppy, unethusiastic and out of the mix. Now he looks like he has lost some weight, works out, plays in time and has some groove. The whole band looks and sounds great!

Hope I'm using this in the right context...

'Cause three holes are better than a hole-in-one!!!
So as the reviews keep rolling in, pics of Dave and WARF(strangely that doesnt sound odd to me)keep showing up.....
Hide your sheep! WARF has gone viral!!!
And not in the way we all thought he would.
Youre the man, WARF!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!
I gotta say that for past few years I've pretty much not given much of a shit with any prospects for a VH return to form, preferring to lurk around in Non-VH Forums (even that out-of-the-blue Aussie gig, that the incompetent promoters eventually stuffed up, didn't quite encourage me as much as it normally should've done - but maybe that was some kind of sign there?)
...BUT WOW, JUST WOW...WHAT A BREATH OF FRESH AIR THAT WAS!!!
Cheers to WARF, Pojo, GEM, and all the rest here at the ARMY!
Cheers again!
Only a real band can pull it off in such a small club. Many acts today can't do it without all the equipment, effects, and lighting. Sometimes you lose something on those big stages. It was cool to just see them lay it down the old fashioned way instead of looking like a Super Bowl halftime show.

TURN THE FOG OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice story.... OK where's Dave and what have you done with him..?
Damn it Bones..?
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
This is absolutely mind-blowing.
They look and sound incredible...and the images and videos that have come out of last night are a feast for the eyes and ears.
Thanks Roth Army, VA Beach, Pojo, and the rest of the mods and webbies for all of your hard work. You guys have gone nuts with this place in the last 2 weeks and I can only imagine the sacrifices you had to make at home to make it all happen.
Special thanks to WARF and GreenEyedMurder for representing and for bringing back such incredible memories for all of us to share. You guys rock.
