I know we have some threads here, but I'm scared if I read them, I may stumble across the set list. I've seen so many shows where I knew every song that was coming (thanks to the internet) and want to be 100% surprised come Saturday night in Greensboro. Can someone just tell me how the band sounds so far? Does the setup look good? Any info that is NOT song related would be awesome! Thanks!!!

This gives some detail. He names 4 songs, but not the whole set-list.Originally posted by cscmtp

It looks promising. Scott Ian is a big CVH fan, so I trust his opinion.

The reason why I trust him is because he has nothing to gain by saying he kicked ass. Read what Mob Research had to say about Wolfie. I’d be worried about that most of all. If he looked like a deer in headlights with 40 people around, just think if there were 20,000 people around.Originally posted by ELVIS

Scott Ian said "Wolf was perfect. Great on bass and hit every high note."
Perfect ??Comment

Click on the link that I put in post #2. Then scroll down about half way and you should see a response from a band named “Mob Research.” It should be at the end of his response.Originally posted by ELVIS

nice one Ian,
yeah I also had the incredible fotune to catch Van Halen rehearsing with full stage production at a large venue in LA last saturday nite - maybe 30-40 people there sat watching near the front - it was mind blowing, the last time I saw VH was at maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto with DLR rocking the mic back in 1981.
Like Ian said, it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up to hear the band sounding so powerful - eddies back to the clean crisp powerful uneffected sound he utilised on the first few albums, none of that chorused and phased shit he did with Van Hagar - sounded brilliant and his playing was spot on. Alex was a monster on drums as always - probably this generations John Bonham - and the rappor between eddie and dave was a pleasure to see - the whole band are enjoying playing that stuff with daves unmistakeable vocals and delivery on it.
My only negative comment that although eddies 18 year old son Wolfgang technically played all the parts on the nail, including most of the incredibly hard and detailed vocal harmonies, he did strike me as being a bit 'rabbit in the headlights' on that big stage. but i guess this is inevitable until he gets a few gigs under his belt. he bearly cracked a smile all nite. Diamond Dave however could not stop grinning - he knows this fucking rocks.
it was also very cool that they played the show set with full bright lighting - white stage light the whole time - so we could clearly see how eddie plays some of those amazing riffs.. he even did the solo 'eruption' 5 min extravaganza which i would assume was unnecessary for a rehearsal, but good practice i suppose..
very amusing to see eddie run over to jam with wolf and see wolf turn red with embarrassment! hey he might be one of the worlds greatest living rock guitar legends but he's still his dad LOL!
i can heartily recommend that everyone - VH fans or not - go check out this tour. I know I will..
