Songs you'd like to see done on new tour

[113]

Will Wolfie play a bass solo, as a tribute to Fat Anthony?

[Southpaw]

Dont count on any new material being any good...Me Wise Magic and CGTSNM is filler music at best,and those 3 terrible songs from their "greatest hiys" with hagar spit the bit. If they had anything better dont u think u would have heard it?

I'd liked Me Wise Magic, kinda grew on me.

I like both of those 96 tracks. Good stuff.

[GAR]

I think "We Die Young" would go over well live..

Which totally make no sense why they didn't play them. Fuck, I know by the time of the tour they were old songs but for lack of a better word, they were new releases.

[GAR]

If they include them on VH7, I think that would be an industry-first where the song preceded the album as part of a Best Of inclusion!

Seeing as how Ed says theres a tour a'comin next year....
what songs would you like to hear them do that they didnt on this tour.
This could be Van Halen, Van Hagar,or DLR catalog
Me...Id like to see
Bottoms Up!
Take Your Whiskey Home- Ed doin intro on acoustic maybe coming off of Spanish Fly
Full Bug
Yankee Rose
Tobacco Road
Damn Good
and wouldnt mind Dave doin Finish What Ya Started and Summer Nights or Best Of Both Worlds

I'd like to hear

Hear About It Later
Could This Be Magic/Big Bad Bill/Damn Good
Full Bug
Me Wise Magic
Simple Rhyme
Light Up The Sky
On Fire
Secrets
DOA
Drop Dead Legs
Women In Love

I'd love to see about a 140 minute set from them with no bullshit solos or anything. Just all tunes with some crowd interaction from Dave but no long winded thing like he did back in the 80s. If they took an intermission that would be fine. Some covers from the old days would be cool. I always liked their take on The Who's version of Summertime Blues.

I really have no desire to hear new music from them unless Mike is back in the band.

You didn't like it right away? CGTSNM is the one that had to grow on me some.

[FORD]

Sad to say, I doubt we'll ever hear "On Fire" again. The Dave scream was too much a part of that song, and I don't see how 50-something Dave is gonna work around that one.

You're probably right but I really like that song. It wouldn't be the same for me without Mike singing with Dave either. That's one thing I always liked about that song. I don't think Dave's voice sounded all that bad until 1994. If Dave started doing a vocal strengthening program he could probably make alot of gains in his upper register in no time.

[FORD]

I think his voice has come back a long way since the 1996 mini-reunion. He was singing great on the last tour, just without the scream.

But that's mostly age. With assists from tobacco and alcohol. But let's face it, none of these classic rock singers can do everything at 50 that they did at 20. Hell, I'm 12 or 13 years younger than Dave, and (though I make no claims of being a professional singer) I can't hit the notes I could when I was 20 either. And I never even smoked anything that wasn't green.

I do too, it's come along way from 1999 DLR Band tour. There's still alot of really great rock singers in their 40s and 50s and I agree Dave was singing great on the last tour.

The green stuff is worse for your voice it makes your vocal chords bleed. Neither are awesome. Cigarettes are my vice. I really need to stop so I do have a voice when I'm older.
