Eddie still has it...i just downloaded a concert off the 2005 tour

[col5150]

Just thought id chuck in my 2 cents on Edd.

The guy deffinately still has it, i just downloaded one of the last concerts from the tour and he kicked ass.

His solo was excellent full of loads of new riffs as well as the usual shit hes been playing for 20 odd years. Maybe he was sober the night of the concert i watched. He even played in the same key as wolfie during there little father and son bollocks.

Perhaps the guys just bored of playing the same shit over and over again. It seems like every time he strays in a song and plays something different, folk say he fucked up.

Sammy fuckin sucked point blank but he always did. If they did a classic reunion edd could more than perform. So long as he hasnt killed himself with booze by then.

I did here a boot of "Im the one" from soundcheck and Ed pretty much nailed it...so the potential never left...

I think you meant 1998. Despite Cherone's half assed Sammy meets Paul Stanley screeching throughout the entire thing, Eddie did sound fairly good on that tour, for the most part. But he was playing like total shit on the Van Hagar "Fleece The Sheep" cash grab tour.

How would you know that foLIARrd?

You went to the shows? You downloaded the concerts? You work the concession counter?

STFU!

Anything other than Dave called Van Halen is a ghost of what once was. A shadow of greatness, a sham to the ears. After I saw them at Monsters of Rock...I unplugged and refused to give those cocksuckers one thin dime or on kb of downloaded space on my hard drive.

Ed still has it, huh? You must have jumped into a DeLorean, and hit 88 miles an hour with the meter set for 1982.

[Jesterstar]

"Eddie.....its the band.....something has gotta done about the band"!!

[ThrillsNSpills]

credibility is gone due to the following-

ed is spelled edd
no grasp of the there, they're, their mystery
no mention of what Ed still has (herpes, maybe)
no mention of which show
the fact that no matter what he does, many folk still wouldn't know the difference between an inspired night and a shitty one. (see Matt's photo above)
Since Ronald is on vocals, obviously the set list is severly compromised.

no DLR pushing them to do their best
