Light Up The Sky - Soundcheck on Youtube

[loucap81]

Nah. Get rid of You Really Got Me. Fucking tired of that tune already. And Outta Love has that awesome riff......whaw whaw whaw whaaaaaw, whum whum whum whuuuuum (you are humming it as you read that...lol)

You know as well as I that will never happen.

By the way, based on available evidence there are only two songs (not counting the solos) that have been performed at every classic Van Halen show since their first non-California show in Chicago on March 3, 1978--Runnin' With The Devil and You Really Got Me. I don't think they're about to change that now.

Should open with it just like '79 tour with DLR flying leap from drum riser !!

Agree it will never happen - it was their first hit, they're almost REQUIRED to play it. Trust me, they're probably sick of it too, but as someone I once worked for that had a few hits said "You think we LIKE playing that same tune night after night 20 years later? We have to, or the casual fans will be pissed!" They viewed it as the "curse" but recognized it was what helped them get to where they were, and they OWED it to the fans that wanted to hear it. Probably a similar deal here.

Um, love the guy to death, but at 57 a flying leap off the drum riser might make him the NEXT member of VH to require hip-replacement surgery...

Couldn't agree more but what a way to go !!

I hear Eddie has an old one laying around somewhere. Just hope Kody isn't chewing on it.

[DONNIEP]

Or let Wolfie sing it!

I'm sure Ed's pushing as hard as he can for this to happen...

[ELVIS]

They won't sell me a ticket if that happens...

[TwoFoolsAMinute]

Dave's kinda pissing me off if he's the one nixing these songs.

Hope not...those things are made out of Titanium, Kody probably wouldn't have any teeth left.

If thats the case, that sucks..This song should be played along with more new tunes..hate to say it, but Just let the band do a medley of some of em without Dave..I know that would be the beginning of the end but that day is coming anyway..

[perrin29]

Holy shit! Those end harmonies sound killer! Needs to be played on the next leg with Drop Dead Legs.

[fourthcoming]

Someone has to bring this to Light Em Up's attention.....she's gonna have a heart attack when she hears this!!!
