Sammy's vocals are a lot more difficult than you think...he is a beast! Constantine did a hell of a job man! Kudos!! Band is SOLID!
SOLID😉
That piano is the most accurate interpretation of Ed's incredibly complex phrasing that I've heard in a long time. So well done. Everyone is awesome here.
Nice to see Constantine again.I remember him from Idol years ago! Love Band Geeks 👍👍
If only one thing good came out of this whole quarantine, it’s hearing Andy playing real drums
I also cannot believe how shiny those cymbals are.
Right On Brother !! !!
Well, I hear electronics can become INFECTED so he did the right thing! LoL
You all probably dont care but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the account password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Julio London Instablaster ;)
What can't Constantine Maroulis sing amazingly? DAAAAAMMMMNNNN SON! Outstanding playing all around. Richie doing so much justice to the greatness of Eddie's playing!
Good God that vocal was amazing!
The Maroulis is a BAD BAD ASS and seriously cool peeps.
Go Constantine 👏👏👏👏👏
Nice job guys & gal of course!! Right Now!!
Nailed the solo Richie. Always a great performance.
Yeah Richie slayed it....sounded like the real deal EVH note for note....tone squels etc.
@@yardleyyardley2631 and jumped right back into the backing vocals, seamlessly.
Richie? That's Constantine Maroulous
@@diannec2719 the guitarist
You know, the guy whose channel this is on...
damn man.... this sent shivers down my spine. Best cover I've ever seen of this song. Can't do this song any more justice. stellar musicianship!!
Right On Brother. !! !! !!
Gave you shivers? Brought tears of joy to my eyes. Thank you Eddie. You blessed MY generation with the most beautiful music a beautiful mind and soul could ever produce.
Wha????!
The BADDEST RIFF known to mankind! WOW dudes, you rocked it!
Van Halen?? No, I say Van Geek!!!!!! another tremendous job!!!!
Right On Brother. !! !!
This guy crushed those vocals
...remembering Eddie Van Halen - the man who changed the guitar forever.
...and the keyboards.
Never a disappointing cover..
Right On. !! !!
I have NO IDEA how I missed this cover from you 'Geeks', but I'm happy to tell you all that it's one of my straight 4/4 favorites now. WOW! Excellent production, everything is absolutely as tight in the pocket as possible, impeccable vocals/harmonies, plus an impressive & first-class lead vocal by Constantine, and a guitar solo from Richie that EVH himself would most likely have considered to be outstanding!
I've been in the Hi-Tech and music industry for the past 53 years, classically trained since I was 5 on piano before shuffling off to MIT at 16 (another story), and what you've assembled here, Richie, should give you a great sense of pride & accomplishment. Having the key players you do is a gift not to be squandered. I was as fortunate on the road for three years in a traveling rock/progressive rock group for three years, until technology pulled me back in.
Of course, being a key member of BOC is quite a feather in your cap, as well!
All The Best,
FalconEddy
Such a great haunting tune. Nailed that smoking guitar solo. I miss when Van Halen was belting out these meaningful tunes with Sammy. What a shame it ended. You wonder how much they left on the table.
Band Geeks and Constantine should write their own stuff. Awesome job!
Right On Bro. !! !! .............
Very cool, super talented group of individuals! Constantine Maroulis is a superstar!
AMAZING JOB>. Damn, Constantine killed it. Sammy is no joke, he made it look effortless.
Constatine has the power. I'd pay to go to that show. You guys are so close to too good.
I'm recovering on LI from Covid, hospital 13 days, wife and daughter got it, were very, very sick at home. 96 yo mother-in-law died after 30 days hospitalized. Richie, Ann Marie, all the great, great musicians and guests, you inspire me to play again and try to achieve the level of fun and satisfaction you all show. There are just no words enough to thank you for how you make me feel right now. I love you all.
Prayers for strength and peace to you and your family, from one musician to another. Tanto amore. 😷🤘
Sting line. Awesome
Right On Brother !! !!
Deus te proteja
I'm all in for anything that inspires someone to fight. Keep on rockin to whatever moves you my friend.
Outstanding!!! LOVE Richie and band geeks!!! ❤️. RIP Maesrto Edward Van Halen! ❤️ dank je!!! ❤️🎸
Yo... nailed that guitar solo tone (and solo, too)!
Good to hear of Constantine again. He was great in Idol. This is a stunning rendition of this song.
Constantine's vocal take is amazing. All these cover versions of Van Hagar songs I've been watching just confirm how much of a beast Sammy is.
You all are amazing. From the band to the lead singer. Van Hagar would be proud!
Right Now......Band Geeks are the best thing on RUclips. Great Job!!
Richie you are the BAMF of nice guys! So fuckin sweet! Great job, team!
Dam. I've listened to this 10x and the singer frickin nails it off the charts. I knew i guy 40 years who sang like this. Eric Schirmer...wow.
Right On Brother !!
Andy just brings me so much Joy!
One of the only good things about these stupid lockdowns is that instead of touring with BOC, Richie is making Band Geek videos again...
Awesome job gang.
Wow what a cover keep it up guys played it 30 times never bored 👍👍👍👍rockin
Right On Brother. !! !! !!
Great Job Ya'll! And Sammy's not an easy singer to do. Singer's got a perfect range & distortion to cover Sammy nicely Great Job Everyone!
Right On Brother. !! !!
Ya’ll. Say it correctly LOL
If i could give thumbs up everytime i watch this video, it would have a few hundred likes more. Awesome musicianship!
I listen to this every 30 days over the last two days. Its always as the first time I heard it. Richie's solo is exactly like Eddie
Flawless perfomance... I like the drums sound .. it's very powerful !!! All of You did an amazing job ...
This has made my day. Constantine was always my favourite contestant on Idol and I am so stoked to see him NAIL a VH tune. This oozes perfection, that solo, note for note. Brilliant stuff
Right On Brother. !! !!
Ummm yes please. Solid mix. Vox, drums and guitar solo....dayumn.
WOW.......Brilliant cover......superb vocal performance from Constantine!
I haven't listened to Van Hagar in years, forgot how much I liked this song and you all killed it. Nice work.
Right On. !! !!
Ed’s piano at the beginning, Sammy’s vocals, the background vocals, the bass and drums holding the groove and Ed’s Solo all done perfectly! Great cover of a great song!
Killer! Boy can sing! Love the solo Richie!
Awesome Richie. You tore up Eddie's leads. Not too shabby for a bass player. 🤘🤘
Massive Vh fan here in Sydney Australia.Con and the band nailed it.Congrats
Right On Brother. !! !! !! !!
That was spot on !!! ... Takes me back to my twenties when that sound and that song was the anthem of the day ... thank for the resurrection of such a great song ... back when VH still had the magic and the mojo ... long live the Band Geeks !!!
Right On. !! !!
Band Geeks quarantine covers are leagues ahead of the rest!
Hello Boys, my name is Eddy.
I'm a musician myself and l want to say,
YOU BOYS HIT A GRAND SLAM !! !! !! !!
with this work of ART . Thank-You .
Daaaaamn...Richie...you nailed that solo! The cover was overall spectacular, but that solo...wow.
Right On. !! !!
'C' nailed the vocals.... and the band... well... THEY'RE ALL AWESOME!!!!!
Right On !! !!
One thing I always notice with the Band Geeks covers is that Richie *always* exactly nails the guitar tone of the original (let alone nailing the musical notes and feel). It's just so spot on with the tone as well that I had to make a comment on that. Kudos!!!
Daaaaaammmmmnnnnnn! Nailed the hell outta that one! Couldn't be done better by Van Hagar itself!
Rest in peace, Mr. Edward Van Halen. Your music will always live on...
Right On Brother. !! !! !!
Nailed it. BRAVO. Amazing synergy. The pride of Staten Island
Right On Bro. !! !! ..........,.
Oh wow! I recognized that ding ding! The first generation unlathed Mega Bell, perfect ride for this song. Great voice, great guitar solo, everybody is solid here.
Right On Bro. !! !! ............

Awesome cover. Insane singer. Amazing tone and just the song millions need to hear RIGHT NOW!

Fantastic! As always. Constantine is amazing. That vocal requires super-human pipes. Nailed it 👍🏻
Well done, Sammy and the boys will be proud of you !
Great Rendition!!! RIP Eddie, your legacy will live on in our hearts and your music!
Bloke's got some serious pipes. Ace job, peeps.
Right On Bro. !! !! !!
Great band, extremely versatile and competent. Congratulations, continue to give us all the competence, energy and good vibes
Greetings from a fan here in Brazil
Constantine is a fucking rock star ! It’s NOT EASY hitting Sammy’s brutal high notes .. or recreating his “scratchy” tone . Great job.
KILLED IT!!!
Sweet mother of music! That was the best cover version of that song I’ve seen yet. Perfectly performed by all.
Constantine nailed the vocal, Ritchie smashed the solo and the BGs rocked their parts!
Right On Bro. !! !! ............
Fantastic cover. I really believe Ritchie along with the band did that justice. Please do more quarantine covers.
Right On Bro. !! !!
Awesome Awesome Awesome, every instrument + the vocal is nailed!!!!
Wow.. mission accomplished! This is a hard song 🎵 to sound right.. Constantine.. you nailed it !! Right on Boys! See.. you on the road ♥️🎶😘🎵🎶
Watching this one after hearing the news of Eddie's passing has given this song as well as many others from Van Halen a deeper meaning
Right On Brother. !! !!
I remember him from American Idol. Great job everyone.
Right On. !!
It is great to see Andy on a full sized kit!
Brilliant performance! Thank you! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Right On Bro. !! !! ..............
Awesome cover, singer nailed it, and his flirtatious smile in between is sure to melt the ladies hearts. Lol
Right now, I'm again blown away by the musicianship, talent, and production skills! You never disappoint. You nail the song and tones, and you don't try to get cute and change up the arrangements or chord structures. So good and much appreciated!!!
One more thing, Richie: I have an Axis SuperSport that I custom ordered in 2000. Trans Orange quilt, hardtail, and the most beautiful Birdseye maple neck I have ever seen. It took me several years to bond with it, but now it's my go to guitar when I can only take one. Love seeing you play the EBMM!!!
Right On. !! !!
INCREDIBLE!!!! No other words come to mind. Simply incredible.
Right On Bro. !! !!

I feel I'm monopolizing on these comments.... But DAMN!!!!! I can listen to this once a week, and it never gets old! I just love your stuff!!!!
WOW!!! This is quite possibly the best cover you guys have done! And that...is saying a LOT!!!! I love it!
Right On Brother. !! !!
Outstanding. You continue to set the bar really high and keep reaching it.

I may not be a big fan of power rock, but I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE AND ENJOY THE VERY HIGH CALIBER OF MUSICIANSHIP HERE!💯🎯
Totally nailed this one! Amazing vocals, piano, and guitar! Way to go, guys.
Thanks Michelle!
Coming from the number 1 fan of the Band Geeks from KENTUCKY Michele K Williams, I wholeheartedly agree. What else would us Band Geek fans expect then exceptional covers. Outstanding! (MICHIGAN supporter)
Right On Girl !! !!
Sensational. Great choice of song and everyone really nailed the parts. Guitar and vox in particular were very, very impressive
Close your eyes and float away. Amazing!
Got to see this sung live back in 2004 when I worked as a stage hand. I told Sammy "good show" as he walked back stage. He clapped me on the shoulder, and said, "Thanks, Dude." It was awesome.
Love this song and this is a cool version. Solo is nailed.
Right On Bro. !!
2:27 Anne Marie doing some Elaine Benes dancing to Van Halen! Love it!
Right On Brother. !! !!
AMEAZING...!!! greath job, thanks for sharing
Love the add of the female voice. Nice touch. Great cover. Great song.
Greets from Jenno / Germany: one of my most beloved VH-Songs and You nailed it!!! 👍🤘👍
Right On Brother. !! !! .............
Well I do love Sammy pretty much, so youtube recommended this video, I’ve never heard of the band and the singer before and I am thrilled. I watched nearly all the videos of Constantine immediately and I think this is Constantine’s best performance ever (other than the Jekyll and Hyde) just wow! Pretty good band. The sound of the drum is amazing! Well done guys and thank you.
Right On. !! !! ............
I'm simply in love with you, guys!!!! Best band EVER!
Another amazing cover from the Band Geeks
