US Fest - YRGM - RWTD - PW - Best Quality

[Calderone]

Guys Van Halen Vault uploaded the 3VH US Festival clips in stunning quality !
I personally like the Raw version better, vocals were re-recorded and added some chorus vocals too.
The quality is the best i've ever seen, but Dave's vocals are pussified on this versions IMO.

The edited vocals are most obvious on "You Really Got Me" --- Dave's lip movements don't match up at all until the Happy Trails rap.

Fuck you, Showtime.


If they ever do this with the full '81 Oakland concert --- I don't even wanna see it.

I remember seeing this on Showtime. I wonder who said the vocals absolutely needed to be redone for this particular airing. The band or the network? Dave had to go into a recording studio and try to recapture the vibe of the moment, only less inibriated. He must have been thrilled about that. Not really.

It's now been 30 fucking years. Put out an official DVD already, for Hell's sake!

Ahhh the feat of capturing inebriation from 30 years ago........

Shoudda made a video of that....

I fucking HATE when they alter the original performance! Fuck that!

Van Halen left mistakes on their albums! Why the fuck would they "fix" a live show?!!

The pro shot VH shows would be the easiest releases they have ever done. Slap them on a DVD UNMOLESTED, and sell the fuck out of them!

I like my VH raw!

[Calderone]

Totally , RAW VH is the shit

[Von Halen]

MOTHERFUCK!

The GREATEST live band EVER, at the greatest rock show ever!

Go watch the blurry version, and you'll know why I am the biggest motherfucking Van HALEN fan on the planet!

Drunk. High. What the fuck ever! VH punched 300,000 motherfuckers in the mouth on that day in 1983!

have any of you compared the vocals to the oakland bootleg ?
i cannot find it

[DLR Bridge]

Horrible.....

The re-recording of RWTD almost sounds like he's spoofing himself. Horrible is right.
