First off, 4771eddievan, fuck off. don't come into my house and insult my momma.
Second, I was at that show, front row. I was standing against the stage the whole show. Security walked right up to the guy next to me who was holding a digital camera up in the air taking pictures and said not a word. Everyone in the place was friendly that I encountered.
Third, Dave and his band kicked so much ass theyre still cleaning it off the walls. No, he can't still scream every note of RWTD, but he is vocally more sound now than he has been in 15 years. He's got the scream when he needs it. He's singing more of the lyrics to the songs than he has most of his career. He forgot no words. And his voice is still plenty good, and is still the voice of Van Halen and beyond
Fourth, his stage presence was great. He came over to the crowd often and looked into our eyes. He looked me in the eye several times during the show. He put the mic down into the crowd several times, and as far as his shtick, I didn't go to a Dave show to get Pearl Jam. I went to get a Dave show. I wouldn't expect anything less.
Fifth, No, he didn't sign autographs for people sticking stuff up to him out of the crowd. He decided to sing and put on a show instead. He could have done a Hagar and skip most of the song signing t-shirts, but I kinda appreciate that we got a show instead.
Dave is a Legend. I was honored to be in the same room with him. And the onlything wrong with the venue was that there were too many fucking sheep in there distracting the Roth Fans.

I agree 100%. Great fuckin' show. Dave's voice was better than ever. Security was nonexistent on the right side off the stage. Everyone was bellied up. It was a free for all. Dave grabbed some hands (okay only women) and made plently of eye contact (okay, mostly women). The stories were hilarious and not the same old schtick. The crowd was a strange mix; but only because of the venue being a casino and members get discounts and shit. Whatever. Who was paying attention to the crowd? Sorry, when Dave's in the room; I don't see anyone else.
