I love Cradle but hearing OLA/GGB or Hang 'Em High is so much better.

I was at the 2007 show, it was awful, drove from Dallas to see It, glas this obe is better!!

I was at that show, drove down from central Iowa. I had a friend drive up from Dallas. Hell, Lou came from Philadelphia. The show was short. No interaction with the crowd. EVH was at his worst of the tour....really sloppy on many of the songs. Not even an intro to Ice Cream Man.

I got back to the hotel (my wife stayed in the room with our baby) and she knew the second I walked through the door that it was a bad show. When I'd go to DLR shows I would come back walking on air. I guess it was worse for me because I was really disappointed in my seats for the price of the tickets. I was way back in the corner on the lower deck and the cheaper nosebleeds would have been better seats. Plus I didn't have a phone to hook up with the DDLR guys because my friend chickened out bringing his phone in because the tickets said no cameras. Just a big fat turd sandwich of a night compared to how a VH concert night should be. DLR left the band when I was 12 and that has damn sure been the one band I wanted to see my entire life...so I guess it might have had trouble living up to the hype anyway...but I really feel cheated. I would go see them this tour if I was so broke that I'm a burden on society already. Can't buy VH tickets on food stamps.

What was so bad about the KC show on the reunion tour? Was Eddie off his game that night? I'm trying to remember...

I posted a pretty detailed review on the old DDLR. Unfortunately I didn't save a copy of that review locally. I recorded the show but only put a link to DDLR in my notes.

This track epitomizes what kind of night it was:

And I believe that is a fan assisted jacket to DLR's wardrobe for two songs! Nice!

Yikes! I've never heard them sound so bad (with Dave). It sounds like no one is on that night - background vocals are brutal.

When they reschedule that East Rutherford show and I'm front row, I am SO throwing a RA shirt onstage!
