Next week I'll do a part 2 Van Halen Podcast with more audio from the show. Stay tuned! VH show that night was incredible! -Florentine's Twitter message 2 hours ago.

Awesome, we'll get to hear She's The Woman in that quality then.

I'll edit together clips for it too.

GEM, If it was me I'd have sung the whole set to you!

That would've been really cool, but I think all the other people there might have gotten pissed off. :D

I apologize for being self-referential here, but at about 4:41, that's the first time he sang to me. :D

Apology accepted,I'm sure everyone would be just as self-referential if the opportunity arose :D

Nitro, Jim Florentine said he had audio of the whole show. Anymore news about that?

Jim said that,but when I downloaded the Podcast, it only had the first 3 songs.He later said on twitter that he couldn't have posted the whole thing for "legal reasons".

That's fine and dandy, but he didn't have to tell everyone it was the full show first.....good way to get viewers I suppose,but it's sorta like showing a Homeless person a ham sandwhich then eating it, lol

The program I used for the Audio was Audacity with some EQ plug ins I downloading.The video was done on windows movie maker,(I have Sony Vegas....but,well I SUCK at using it.)

I would have cut out the Asian guy but due to the larger HD files,windows movie maker crashed multiple times making it really hard to just sync up the footage,let a lone editing him out.Had I had another angle though,I would have tried to remove him.

They should hire me to do background vocals like I did at cafe wha? the whole tour!

hahaha

WARF was looking at EVH like he was a sizzling Rib Eye

[Sensible Shoes]

Oh that's the best! Warfy and Ed had chemistry.

It was awesome, I locked eyes with Eddie a bunch of times... pointing at him... it was greatest experience ever.

I saw your eyes! You wanted to jump him!

[WARF]

I predicted you would storm the stage. LOL. But you didnt need to, you were on it! :D

It's strange when you have somebody within inches that you WORSHIP!

I kept yellin TATTOO... I wanted tattoo live... I was even tempted to rip my shirt off and show him my VH tattoo!!!!

It took a few days to realize this, but me and BEM were the closest to seeing Van Halen perform ever.... in 38 years!!!

Nobody has ever been closer to the stage.... EVER.

Wow. It's just mind blowing.

I cannot thank staff enough for this opportunity...

I hope me and BEM did everyone proud!
