Nuno Tenniscourt talks EVH on Rick Beato

Our Lord might have turned a little too much water into wine that day?

Ublock Origin will absolutely wipe out all YouTube ads if you watch in a browser. If you're watching on android phone or android TV device there are "alternative" you tube clients available. Sadly if you try to watch on a Samsung TV you''re fucked because there are no alternative clients available and no adblockers at all. Network/DNS based adblocking will take the ad bullshit out of most sites, but not YouTube, because the Google greedy bastards have figured out how to stream the ads & the actual content from the same source.

YouTube might find that less people would use adblockers on their site if they went with a reasonable ad policy. Run an ad before the video? Sure... as long as it isn't longer than the video itself. Run one after the video? Yeah, why not. I'd probably click out of it anyway. It's the ads thrown in randomly in the middle of the content that I can't stand. I refuse to buy any product advertised that way, just out of principle.

Not a single “verily”?

I'm sure I was glad to hear Decadance Dance and less thrilled about More Than Words.

Ever hear this? Nuno singing on a Dweezil Zappa song, The Kiss. Nuno co-produced the album, Confessions.

Got this when it came out. Not bad, but like a lot of stuff from that era, it’s dated and didn’t hold up very well. There’s a song towards the end where Dweezil and Nuno are talking through it like guitar geeks and they bust on Dave forgetting the words at the US Festival. There’s also a blisteringly painful version of Stayin’ Alive with Donnie Osmond on lead vocals. I strongly recommend never checking that one out.

[DLR Bridge]

Listened to this one on the way into work. It’s a good one. I think he was drunk, high or hungover on the first one. This one he was more relaxed, if that’s even possible for him.

His Ozzy story is hysterical.

Another interview. Some more Van Halen content.

[Von Halen]

Nope. Never heard that. To be honest, I'll probably never hear it again. :D

[twonabomber]

It was a good set back then. In hindsight, I'm surprised Dave didn't try to steal Nuno away from Extreme during that tour. Who knows, maybe he did.

Exactly.

I seem to remember him not being complementary about them but that was probably tied up in bad feeling about the whole Cherone 1996 thing.

[Von Halen]

Cheap Trick style. Zander rarely speaks between songs, it's always Nielsen.

Exactly.

Extreme opened for DLR in '91 but I don't remember much about their set.

[Von Halen]

They closed with Rise? Kind of surprising...

Yes, and the crowd went ballistic.

It seems to have become very much Nuno's band, I get the impression Gary only writes the lyrics not the vocal melodies.

I have tickets for later in the year at a 2500 capacity place roughly the same size as where Von saw them. Any bigger venue than that and the gig gets progressively worse.

Nuno did all the stage banter

I went and saw Extreme monday night. They tore it up. Nuno was on fire. At one point, sat on the speakers and played some of "Women In Love". Note for note, near perfect tone. If they were to do a VH tribute show (I don't want them to) this would be the guy to put on guitar. Not Satch.

By the way. Cherbone is still fucking weird!

Nuno did all the stage banter, other than introducing the band. My girlfriend said to me during the show that "The singer could probably suck his own dick". I told her about him turning his back to the audience, bending over and reaching between his legs and grabbing his asshole during the VHIII tour, and low and behold, the fucker ended up doing it again. She about died laughing!

Like I said above though. It was a damn good show. Glad I went.

[So this is love]

Very interesting, I can't sit and watch a whole 2 hour interview but the bits and pieces I heard are gems...I had not seen that vids before.
