    Open with "Drop Dead Legs". Then go into a buzzing bunch of noise that results in "Romeo Delight", or "I'm The One".

    Play anything except "I'll Wait" or "Jump", gimme a bunch of Fair Warning tracks. Maybe throw in a version of "Could This Be Magic" before "Ice Cream Man".

    And let Roth get out there with his Dave-sickle and play "79th & Sunset" or "Tin Cup Chalice" (with backing on the latter).

    Oh, and I want a DVD of this shit (part of the ticket price) sent to my home after I have supplied my mailing address at the venue, once I leave the show...say within 48 hours.

    A bumper sticker would be cool in the mailing, as well. Or at least a coupon for a VH 2015 baseball cap.

      You have to believe Dave has seen these clips..I honestly would love to know what he thinks...Wolf really seems to be gently pushing the songs he wants to play..

          Well, that's the caveat to all of these songs, Dave has to want to sing them.....

          It's just like LUTS and As Is last tour.... Great vid from the Greensboro soundcheck (while we were at Fat Dogs drinking beer), but as EVH said then, it's up to Dave if he wants to sing them....

            I see good things coming for this tour. Just the fact they are posting rehearsal footage is cool and that someone seems to be paying attention to the requesting album cuts. And agreed, throw a prompter up there. Beats going back do the drum riser and reading off a sheet.

              Put that big ass screen at the back of the venue and broadcast lyrics on it.

                A photo (or video) of Dave rehearsing at 5150 with these guys is as rare as one of Norman Rockwell beating up a child. Apologies to Steven Wright.

                      Drop Dead Legs, Little Guitars, Dirty Movies.. Nice. Very nice.
                      Now Dave, stop being a prick and learn them lyrics. Oh, and stop singing like a faggot. You're not Freddie Mercury, get over it already.

                      Am I the only one here who thinks this is just bullshit? I mean, it's not like they're Really going to play those songs, heh?

                        You arent the only one..I think the band obviously wants to play them..but God forbid , Dave isnt going to try something new( GGB lasted no time last tour)..I want to know if they have talked about these tunes with Dave at all...I doubt it.

                          It was flipped in and out til about May I think. Same with Outta Love. Bottoms Up only made in one show I think and Hang Em High was maybe a couple.

                              How's about some "Take Yer Whiskey Home", ?

                                It's very cool to see the "three twins" rehearsing these gems, but let's face it, it all comes down to whether or not Dave will sing them. I see this whole movement becoming a flashpoint for another fight between Dave, Ed, and Al.

                                On the positive side, it shows me that Wolfgang is keeping his ear to the ground, and maybe woke his pops and uncle up to the fact that true fans are pissed that they're being sold this "live album" as an excuse for a cash grab "greatest hits tour."

                                Maybe they finally realize the stupidity of performing "greatest hits" live, based on a LIVE recording of "greatest hits" from 2 fucking years ago.

                                Maybe they finally realize that perhaps they overestimated the level of "fan desperation", and that their strategy of starving fans to the point of near death and then throwing them small morsels of food won't work this time. I think most of us are completely over being "enablers" to these guys...acting like abused spouses who know they should leave but decide to stick around for "one more chance" because "deep down, he/she is really a good person who cares about me."

                                The fans have spoken. If we're going to pay through the nose for concert tickets again, then we had better hear some FUCKING songs that we didn't just hear two years ago, and are now hearing again on the "Tokyo Dome" recording. VH has gotten wind of this and are now scrambling to dig out the deep cuts / B-sides and perhaps give the fans what they want for a change.

                                But if Dave won't sing 'em, it won't be worth shit. And wouldn't it just be fitting if this whole tour imploded over the idea of giving the fans what they want? That is SO Van Halen....
