That wall of speakers was actually a curtain with speakers printed on it. Every so often a breeze would come from somewhere back stage, and the whole thing moved.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

Basically, the '84 stage was the same as the '81, with the exception of more lighting and a wider stage with platforms, and a different backdrop. They used the same speakers, but not staggered like in '81, Alex had the gong, although another drum kit, and keyboards. I guess they had some kind of a deal to use a southern California's company logo too. The famous hammer man was (and still is) Western Exterminator's logo.

The backdrop with the speakers was from Diver Down. The three bacdrops for 1984 was the sky/clouds with the rigging, hammer guy and the same pattern as the stage floor.When the shit hits the fan, close your mouth and duck.Comment

VH stages became boring and dorky after Dave left the band. The 5150 stage was bland, and then the OU812 stage was completely stupid with the drum riser being a big ass fake cog that looked fake as hell. The VH3 stage was a fucking circus ring. Just dumb shit after Dave.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

We got to see the 84 stage in it's glory during sound check but during the show I was right smack in front of it. Dave's little platform was off to the right of me and he would come out on it and do his thing but everything was up and behind me for the most part. So I was there but really missed the show.No!

This should be in Main. It's an extremely great change of pace and the best thread I've read in a long while. I'd love to see comparisons of all the VH/DLR stage setups.I brought my pencil!!!Comment

Thank God Eddie never played a keytar on stage. He fucked himself badly with VH3 but at least Ed never got crazed enough to go out with a keytar strapped on him.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment
