[Carloscda]

Maybe an VH-1 Unplugged Special with Van Halen followed by a behind the music??

Imagine the out-takes that's in the vault!!

[chi-town324]

[dazzlindino]

Maybe an acoustic VH-1 Special with Van Halen followed by a behind the music??

I could see them doing Storytellers with this acoustic format, but I can't see a Behind the Music at this point. Probably better NOT to do one, if it just dredges up all the shit from the past, and gives Cheddy McDonald another vehicle to talk shit about the band.

This is amazing!

It's like we've been smacking at a pinata for the last 4 years and it finally burst open...and now all the goodies are falling on our heads.

Of course this is what Dave was doing solo 8 or 10 years ago, doing acoustic versions of Van Halen songs in his house.

I wonder if the video for the second single is going to be them driving through a tunnel being chased by the Van Damn triplets and a bunch of dwarfs.

I certainly hope so.

And I thought I was the only one who liked the BBQ video

I have to say, I was wrong about the whole acoustic thing. I really dig this clip. Reminds me of when he was doing this with James, BYoung, Ray and Toshi during those morning radio interviews a few years back (damn that was a tight band!).

Thing about it is, Eddie and Dave could really do some cool acoustic blues stuff if they weren't worried about jumping off drum risers(said as a metaphore of course).

I'd love to hear their version of side 2 of Exile on Main st.

[TAKIN WHISKEY]

I dig it!

[mohican]

I like how Dave says it's the first Van Halen live recording completely ignoring that Van Hagar shit.

Yes, what a stab! Hagar can't stop talking about vh while Dave and the boys consider him and the hagar era nonexistent.

[Northern Girl]

kinda worried about the Tardive movements Dave has been showing, Tardive dyskinesia or Parkinsons

Nah! It's still "Monkey Hour!" He's got a surgically implanted disco beat.

Thanks for the reminder. I was starting to worry.

Damn.....that'd be something.

What an album, BTW
