I don't know if this was already reported but Van Halen got 4 stars in the Live! Review of Rolling Stone magazine.

Touche...they even take a shot at Dave..."Hagar's singing maintained a perfect balance between power and insouciance, underscoring the band's party-hearty aesthetic without undercutting the melodies (a trick former frontman Dave Lee Roth never managed)."


It was the Toronto concert.

It wasn't reported, since nobody gives a crap about Van Gaybar and their miserable, failing tour. This is not www.FagHomoGayVanGaybar.com

The sticky is referring to the lack of success...

Here, let me save you the time:

"Van Homo Gaybar sucked last night. All the songs sucked. All of the playing sucked. They all looked like crap. Ed still has only has half a tongue. Go see the Cure."

There.

Reunion tours generally range from pale imitation to bitter disappointment; as a rule, any band that breaks up and then gets back together is never the same as before. In one sense, Van Halen's reformation with singer Sammy Hagar followed that pattern: The band wasn't as good as it used to be - it was better.
Whatever problems may have kept the band off the road for the last half-decade (guitarist Eddie Van Halen's fight with cancer, Hagar's attitude, drummer Alex Van Halen's hearing, bassist Michael Anthony's irrelevance) are gone without a trace. This Van Halen seemed more energetic and enthusiastic than they did a decade ago, during their last outing with Hagar (supporting 1995's Balance). From the explosive opening of "Jump" to the fistpumping choruses in "Best of Both Worlds," the band managed to make its big hits seem even bigger onstage. It helped that Eddie played brilliantly throughout, handling the rhythm lick in "Why Can't This Be Love?" with one hand and lending an almost incandescent virtuosity to "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love." But this was no one-man show. Hagar's singing maintained a perfect balance between power and insouciance, underscoring the band's party-hearty aesthetic without undercutting the melodies (a trick former frontman David Lee Roth never managed). And between Anthony's bass pulse and Alex's tastefully virtuosic drumming, "Unchained" and "You Really Got Me" were unstoppable juggernauts.
Far from being outclassed by the solid-gold oldies, the band's new material - particularly "Up for Breakfast" and the stomping "It's About Time" - was solid and inspiring. In all, the reconstituted Van Halen came across as a band, not some collection of competing personalities and agendas - and based on this night's performance, it looks like they're just warming up.

Yep, in front of that big bad average of 7,000 fans.

The new songs SUCK royally.

Rolling Stone isn't the same as before either.

Notice how the Roth songs are the crowd faves at every show.

[Samsonite]

Well...he mentioned 4 Roth songs...and 4 Sammy songs...so where'd you get that from?

What trick is that? Screwing the fans? Writing poor songs?
