    Back PEDAL? You really need reading (and spelling) lessons. I just restated what I said at the top of this page. Also if you think you know everything that was ever broadcast on any channel with Van Halen you are on crack. You may be on crack anyway.

      PLEASE try to find the beta video!

        There is absolutely no Van Halen proshot from the 1984 tour that was shown on TV or that ever made it out beyond a serious hoarding collector...

        There is of course the "Quorum at the Forum," from Montreal which is poor, but forgivable, quality...

        Although, I've heard a rumor that a cross between a proshot/audience of high quality exists from Buffalo's Memorial Auditorium that was shot from a box using a camera from the Sabres broadcasts I believe, but that's strictly rumor...

          Um douche bag, if it was on TV, it would have been recorded, and yes I know the lineage of US Fest, and it was Showtime's turf and Van Halen was reportedly very unhappy with their drunken performance. The retouched about four songs, that may have been played, but I've never heard of the concert being rebroadcast as a whole, and the four songs were circulated on the radio.

          And even if you were eleven, you couldn't figure out the difference from the 1983 US Festival show and a 1984 show? You either saw the Oakland videos or maybe the four Diver Down era songs. But did you hear "Jump," or "Panama," idiot?

Back in '84 I remember watching a music TV show here called 'Music Express', which was on Saturday afternoons for about 3 or 4 hours (Panamark and other Aussies might recall this show). During one of these episodes they played a VH concert from their current tour and I'm sure the host said it was from Montreal. I actually recorded it on an old Beta video tape and had it for a few years before losing it!!!
              I remember seeing some pro footage on a Saturday
              afternoon music show, I seem to remember

              Probably Oakland ?

                The Oakland stuff was in full force from late 1983 to 84' or 85' on MTV. That I do remember...

                And there may have been four songs from US Fest that were used as vids, but I don't recall seeing that...

                And the Donnington thing was a cut from MTV Europe, and the mono sound kind of blows on it...

                  Again, if you had read my post before attacking you would see that I did not see the concert, I just knew about it since I saw the ads on MTV and people were talking about it.

It may have been US Festival or Diver Down South America or something like that. Does anyone remember seeing what MTV broadcast? Was it a 1984 tour show?

                      If a 1984 tour pro shot exists we must bust Eddie's ass until he releases it on DVD!
                      Not sure if I remember that.

                      Although its possible there may be a complete '84 Monsters of Rock Donnigton show.

                            The Donnington (Monsters of rock) is part of a 30 min show including Motley crue backstage, Ac/Dc interview, Dave/Alex interview and part of Hot for teacher live.
                            No other livefootage was shown from the VH set.

                            Swedish television did a 10 minutes from Rasunda stadium in Stockholm. This included a interview with Dave+part of Jump live.

                            But the Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo was aired on tv in South America in 83.

                              Well, they did shoot the full song though:

                              <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/x2lB9_mM9kk"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/x2lB9_mM9kk" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

                              Pretty close to the only known proshot live footage of the 1984 tour sadly...

                              But there's bound to be quite a bit in Ed's vault...

                                There is pro shot 1984 tour video in the Panama music video. An entire concert must exist.
