Old Concert Footage

[Carloscda]

There's always mention of the Oakland footage, but what about the other footage from early on (Dance the night away, Your no good & Bottoms up) does footage of that whole show exist?

It may be possible that entire show was filmed.

Would put that up there with the fabled Oakland footage in terms of anything currently existing; unless I'm gonna get a chance to see it (by hook or by crook), I'd almost rather NOT know if it is rotting in a film can somewhere. It's easier to go under the presumption that Ed burned down the vaults in a Smoking Loon stupor, or taped over the footage while watching a One Day At A Time marathon during a meth binge than it is to think it's all sitting around somewhere gathering dust, and won't see the light of day due to Ed just plain not giving a shit what fans would like to see.

"Hey, Ed, how about releasing the vaults?"

"and it was always the case that in the past any guitar manufacturing company was never able to give me what I wanted in terms of making a guitar that looked and sounded like the way I thought it should...until I hooked up with this new company who have finally made 'the' EVH model to end all EVH models...until the next one comes along..."

"Um, Ed, that's not quite what I asked there."

"yeah, well, I know what's best for the band, not the fans...in the meantime, buy my new official EVH licensed 5150 dildo lube...it goes great with the EVH sneakers..."

I had high hopes of Edward having a clear mind after getting clean...he was our hero, even before Dave...

It's so sad that that doesn't seem to be the case. We all still want to love Edward and he comes up with BS crap time after time. We foregave him for Sam, Ga y and even Michael (well, I didn't forgive him for that crap) but he still seems to come up with excuses!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon dude, write some crappy guitar riffs, give 'em to Dave and let us fans be the judge!!!

If it sucks, well...IT SUCKS!!!

Who really cares ?? At least you tried!!!

We don't care about your fancy amps and pedals!

How hard can that be for a millionare guitar hero ???

Millionaire even...

I'd bet $100 that the masters are still sitting in good shape at Pacific Archives...

I was at 2 of the Oakland 81 shows and the film crews worked both the entire shows.

Here's a gem... 16... that's right six-fucking-teen 24 track audio tapes from those shows!!

Gawd damn-it Ed... call up Eddie Kramer and ship him a pallet of tapes and let him work the same magic he did with Hendrix's old vault!!



There's much more...
