Elvis, I hope someone takes your fucking ballsack and shoves it up your ass, you fucking peice of shit. Why in the holy name of FUCK are you doing on a site called ROTHARMY.COM? HELLO!? This is a site for VAN HALEN FANS (notice the emphasis) You call probably the best Van Halen preformance since 2008 "Sub-par bullshit?" That is fucking disgusting. That is beyond fucking disrespectful. Even for a prick like you, you have hit an all time fucking low. All of your comments on this thread concerning that concert are fucking DESPICABLE beyond every concievable way.
Fuck you, ELVIS! fuck all the Van Halen haters, fuck DaveSUCKSLive, fuck Adoynall, FUCK YOU ALL!
I have no more words to adequatley describe how pissed off I am at you right now.
Ha ha - just kidding bro. Remember, opinions are like assholes: no one around here wants to hear one.My karma just ran over your dogma.Comment

[QUOTE=ELVIS;1764277]And then I listened again...
They're killing the legend thinking they can just suck and pick up a check...
Fuck that...
If you like paying hard earned money for sub-par bullshit, that's fine...
But I'm entitled to my opinion...
They already sound bad enough without Michael Anthony...
Add to that a poor performance and you have what most YouTube people say...
"Van Halen suck."
I listened again also. You are right. Van Halen should retire ! Elvis you should start the thread. It's time for a Van Hagar reunion number 2. Dave is toast. He can't sing, jump off the drum riser, have long hair, get along with the fake bass player/ backup singer & hates the guitar player ! IT'S OVER PEOPLE !!!!!! Just ask the KING ! Or we can just take Van Halen for what it is 30 years after they ruled the world. 3 older guy's and the kid of one of them because he is an asshole, & has no respect for original bass player and enjoy them playing their hits when they come to your town. That's what I'm going to do. Wish they were younger. Their not ! Wish Mike was there. He's not. Wish Dave sang better. He can't, or he would ! It is what it is. Enjoy them while you can, or don't I guess.Comment

And...don't shoot me...but I think that subconsciously some of our criticism may come from being burned out on the same "greatest hits" setlist that they've been recycling since 2008. I know they threw in some new stuff in the show, but they really need to mix up the setlist. Granted, this was the first time back in Australia in a long time and I know those fans wanted to hear it, but stateside I think that they have to go deeper into the catalog the next time around, or focus on new shit much more. I love ADKOT....I've worn it out!!! I want to hear more of it LIVE! I want them back in the studio cranking out even more!!
They've fucked around with "Top Jimmy", "Drop Dead Legs" and others. It's time to stop nibbling around the edges of those GREAT SONGS and take a BIG FUCKING BITE ALREADY!
1) Songs played in 2007-08 but NEVER played in 2012: I'm The One, Atomic Punk, Little Dreamer, So This Is Love? , Little Guitars
2) Songs played in 2007-08 but played for only SOME of the shows in 2012: Jamie's Cryin', And The Cradle Will Rock... , Romeo Delight, Mean Street
3) Songs played in 2012 but not played in 2007-08: Bottom's Up! , Outta Love Again, Women in Love... , Hear About It Later, Hang 'em High, The Full Bug, Girl Gone Bad, Tattoo, She's The Woman, Blood and Fire, China Town, The Trouble With Never
Light Up The Sky and As Is were rehearsed and done in soundchecks in 2012, but never performed at the actual show though they came close with LUTS.
Top Jimmy and Drop Dead Legs have never been performed in front of a paying audience. Eddie did play DDL at soundchecks during the 2004 Hagar tour.
It'll be interesting to see what they do at their own shows in Japan. At the very least, they should be giving those people the full 110-120 setlist they did in North America; no excuses to only do a 90 minute one.
I think one's opinion of the Sydney setlist depends on whether or not you're looking at it in a vacuum or whether or not you're looking at it compared to what they've done for other audiences. I of course am looking at it compared to other setlists and it is, unquestionably, the weakest setlist they've done since 2007. When they did the Quebec festival in 2008 they did the full setlist (technically it was one song deficient, without Little Guitars, but that had been dropped prior to that show). I can see how if you live in Australia and this was your first VH show, you probably don't care because you were simply happy to finally see them live.
To be blunt, in the unlikely case that this is the new normal setlist, I wouldn't see them again. 90 minutes with no old deep cuts or different ADKOT songs is a waste of time and money. It's the same reason why I gave up on DLR solo 10 years ago, I couldn't take year after year of the same setlist.
