Listening to the radio last night

[Hardrock69]

I was cleaning out this storage shed at my house (damned ex-landlady leaves me a ton of old fucked up JUNK to clean out after I bought her house ) and I had the jambox on the radio....amazingly enough they played 3 CVH songs in a row and the DJ comes on afterwards and says "Now that is the REAL Van Halen..."



Seems the entire planet knows that van hagar sucks ass, and as people generally seek out quality in their entertainment, it is common knowledge that CVH is the real thing, while van hagar is just a poorly reproduced copy (I am never going to use capitalization again for van hagar, as they are just a lame, pathetic excuse for a Van Halen cover band).

Glad you brought that up. CLASSIC VH was a band that could NOT be touched back in the day...and with the horrible state of music today..Still cannot be touched. You had a band that became a religion..a statement. Van Halen made you feel good when all else failed..it still does. The first time I heard CLASSIC VH I was 9 years old. The first song? JUMP. To a 9 year ol..that's the perfect song! Anyhow it baffels me to this day that there are people out there that feel that Sammy was better then Dave at being a frontman..I'll never get that..ever. Your Thread was worth reading...hope I didnt bore ya. I get a little crazy when it comes to CLASSIC VH...

That's great to hear! It's true, THAT is the real Van Halen. For a long time, my radio station was playing Classic VH only, but all of a sudden they were playing that Van Hagar shit. I was quite upset by this...

Now that's classic VH, sounds right after Mean Streets, not after a ballad

[BenJammin]

How many band's albums can you put on and listen to them all the way thru, dig every song, and then want to listen to the next one they put out?

I've lost count with how many times I've done that with VH1, VHII, etc,etc. (yes, I even play DD all the way thru)

That's the six-pack baby! Just like the name implies, you can't just have one!

Very cool, I was the same age and Jump was the perfect song for me too. And the guitar break in Drop Dead Legs used to hipnotize me into an otherworldy trance. :D

I have said this many times I am a supporter of Van hagr, However, CVH is the shit and there will be no other like that.

What a great story man!! I can't even think back far enough to the last time I heard CVH on the radio. It's a shame but whenever it happens...ooooh I can feel it now, my blood just starts rushing and I just go into the ULTIMATE state of awareness!! Hearing CVH on the radio, thinking, other people could be tuned in like me, getting as inspired as me!! That's the feeling I love, knowing that someone somewhere is just starting to get hooked. You can't stop Van Halen. Their legacy and name will live on for many many years.

They did it again today....was unloading a truck, and had the radio in the shed on to the same station, and lo and behold they played 3 CVH songs in a row...did not hear what they dj said if anything....I was too busy working....

WOW, DIDNT KNOW THAT RADIO STATIONS ACTUALLY PLAY 3 SONGS IN A ROW. ESPECIALLY CVH 3 TIMES IN A ROW......COME TO NORTH ALABAMA, WHERE YOU CAN LAY BACK AND HEAR THE SAME 3 DLR VAN HALEN SONGS AND THE 3 SPAMMY VAN HAGAR SONGS. I THINK THEY ONLY KNOW OF THOSE 6 HERE, CAUSE THEY SURE PLAY THE HELL OUT OF EM.

OH AND AC/DC ALL DAMN DAY LONG......
