I begged, BEGGED, my brother to take me to go see this tour (I was 14 at the time). He was afraid of getting in too late the next morning to go college. I never let him live that down. Of course now he conveniently doesn't remember this. Believe me, I do!
When you wanna do something, god has put that thought in your mind for a great Godamn mootherphoching reasonand if you allow yourself to think about it for more than 3 seconds; you’ll realize quickly that an idol mind is the #playground Of the #DEVIL
The VH sound is all on display here: Ed's guitar (of course), Alex's monster drumming and Mike's high backing vocals. People say that VH couldn't rock with Sammy? Please.
Love this version! Van Halen's idea of Speed Metal. :) They play it so fast...a little faster than the album version, I think...that you can tell they're having a time keeping it from going off the rails. But of course, Eddie and crew pull it off.
Sammy Hagar in an interview he did after he joined Van Halen said that during the David Lee Roth era of Van Halen, the band would not do any rehearsals or prepare before a concert, they would just get on stage and just let it rip. When Sammy was a solo artist, he and his band before every show would do a rehearsal to be sure they were ready and in sync and in rhythm so they put on a good performance, but with Van Halen, they hit the stage and the show begins.
That crazy Steinberger guitar, where the whammy bar works kind of like a gear shift... crazy! But it makes this song possible! I've loved this song ever since I first heard it at age 13 or 14. Every lead singer in the world should want to sing with Mikey, his harmonies enhance the performance of every singer he works with. :)
RIP Eddie. This tune was one my earliest introduction to this maestros. Run this tune over and over again yesterday while I'm crying. It might be one of their hardest tune to play, Eddie almost never left Alex side the entire tune, except for the ending part. And that tone Eddie produced is a lesson in itself. How he produced such a great tone that even one note sounds Godlike...
What I love SO MUCH in this performance, is the utter FUN these guys are having while performing. Reminds me a lot of Devin Townsend live. The sheer joy just oozes from his pores.
They are just fucking blazing on this song! Alex looks gasman just hammering that double bass! Such a killer tune in live, especially. Goddamn I miss this group.
Remember renting Live Without A Net from my local mom and pop video store (remember those?) on VHS. It was right at the same time a beloved great uncle of mine had died and watching this was a definite pick me up for me, my brother and our cousin. In those days wakes still went two or three days/nights (at least Italian Catholic ones did anyway) so it was cool having something positive and stimulating to look forward to when we got home. Sammy put his whole heart and soul into proving himself to skeptical fans. It shows up in spades here.
@@Rockstar-lx2li I don't know if their age had anything to do with it, but maybe in the early '90s. Around the Carnal Knowledge era. That was like 92' right?
Ok...I was listening to the studio version and questioned if Alex was overdubbing some of those drum fills because it seemed too fast for Alex. I went to this video to see how he actually played it live. Wow...how dare me question the legend. Wtf! This was crazy talent across the board to pull that off live faster than the studio and just as clean.
How tf does Eddie come up with these musical, beautiful, and fucking fantastic riffs. I can't even play a chord progression without it sounding like a damn blues/country song.
I would have loved to go see this concert even though I never really liked Sammy Hagar I still would have loved to see Eddie the greatest guitarist of all time R.I.P
This is a band loaded with talent. Alex's drumming is just pheonomel, Sammy's vocals, MIchael's bass line is extremely complex & then of course you have Eddie.......

No one's ever looked happier onstage than EVH. That smile is missed.
Got that right sister
I was 16 when this came out ....what's not to like 😎
He should of gone into Cryogenics Like the duke did. when they have a cure bring him back to play for people 50 to 100 yrs from now,
Big smile.
Most everyone who's ever met the guy says he's totally different and in his happy zone on stage. RIP

I was also 14 that summer, 8-6-86. It was an unforgettable concert. VH!

Right?
Alex is a great drummer
Yes Indeed. You try playing that stuff. You can't
@@sammyvh11 absolutely - Alex Van Halen is the guy that played more unplayable parts than most.
Michael Anthony is one of the worlds most underrated singers . His range I’d phenomenal
Van Halen, Def Leppard, Megadeth... possibly Aerosmith. They made the eighties worth living through.
Don’t forget Mötley Crüe and Metallica
Unfortunately I never got to experience the 80’s
Def Leppard and Aerosmith were pretty terrible in the late 80’s, I will say though their early 80’s stuff was good.
Don’t forget Rush, Anthrax, Queensryche, Metallica, and Iron Maiden!
@@spaceace4387 Thats a matter of personal taste and opinion of course.
MY fav van halen song.. geeeez man this is the peak right here...
same
I agree! my #1 Sammy VH song by far.

+Tom Metzger Waaayyyy faster!
The album bersion Alex is on those tubs fuckin hard!
I get the feeling every time they played this they tried to play it as fast as possible. Can we get a little love for Michael keeping the pocket!?
@@johnlampe3258 Mike deserves more than a little. Love that dude.
Now that you mentioned them trying to hold it down, i see it lol. Like a Challenger swerving from speed.
0:48 always gives me goosebumps
That pull. It speaks.
Same here
Yeaahhh
SAME HERE
Greatest. Dive. Bomb. EVER……
1986 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😊
The controlled feedback Edward does is incredible
It’s a pitch dive
@@peytoncappitelli5864 he is feed backing in front of the Amps
RIP Eddie You are still my childhood Hero
The Mighty Van Halen’s most underrated tune with Sammy
RIP Eddie. Gone way too soon. You left us with lots of amazing music that will live on forever.

Every lead singer in the world should want to sing with Mikey, his harmonies enhance the performance of every singer he works with. :)
well, isn't it funny, that especially Eddie Van Halen says nowadays, that Michael couldn't sing and couldn't play bass :-)
Eddie is so great. I can't think of anyone else who used the Steinberger TransTrem creatively in a pop/rock song.
The way they play together so tightly on a song with such crazy syncopations is beyond insane!
All expect the GEEETTTT UPPPP timing the first time lol
That confirmation look Michael throws back to Alex at the end of the song, knowing they completely nailed it. Amazing ❤️
That's a killer riff 👌🏼

The heaviest song Van Halen ever made. Always wished they did more of this. Hagar was the only one who completed this sort of heavy sound.
On Fire.
On Fire.. ,yep my personal favourite
Nonsense.
Check out source of infection
Women And Children First - 1980 the album speaks for itself lol.
3:12 That Michael Anthony scream is amazing. I wonder if he could have replaced David Lee Roth
I was just thinking that lol
bmo Nope. There's a HUGE difference between being a backing vocalist and fronting a band
My God. He goes high...then goes HIGHER! Unbelievable job by Michael Anthony!
@@ROOKTABULA so?
michael anthony sang lead vocals during their 98 tour and did great! (somebody get me a doctor)
Relentless!! Alex looks at Eddie looks at Alex... faster? Ok. Who said it... to this day no one knows or cares. It just happened. Mind Blown!
My favorite Pitch dive of all time: 0:48
Yes indeed! He knows it here too! It's like a jet going overhead..
This song is definitely a BANGER!! RIP Eddie… Alex, Take care of yourself! ❤
What a fast-paced, action packed rockin song!. Glad I got to see this live.
I feel like I did a line and two shots just watching this. Love this song and this era but maaaaan they are partyin' for sure.
The Van Halen brothers...it's the most better association .!! 👍💥💥🎸👏👏😍
Off to the races!!!🤘
One of the better van hagar songs
Alex OWNS this song. Get Up!!!!
The Almighty Van Hagar Era!!!!!!!!
RIP EVH my Metal Father
breathless just listening to this...
oNE of the best live ever
I love how Ed stayed up by Alex on this so they can cue off each other
The tempo is quite fast.
Michel voice is quite beautiful.
big al is like he's just cuttin up a sandwhich on the counter,no effort to his greatness.
This song...is Phenomenal...!!!!🎸🎸💥💥👍💖
What I love SO MUCH in this performance, is the utter FUN these guys are having while performing. Reminds me a lot of Devin Townsend live. The sheer joy just oozes from his pores.
This is your daily motivational theme.
The Guitar GOD EDDIE VAN HALEN is just KILLEN IT !! And LOVE the MEGA BLAST of vocals at the end is just the icing on this musical cake !!
#Huge Thank you to the eighties and the heaviest weightiest and tastiest of all #tasty #Tasteful #incredible and #amazing #music of our #LifeTIME !
Alex is a beast. WOW!
One of the very best songs of the Sammy era.. Awesome 🤘🔥
one of their best songs with Sam.
Awesome !!
Now THIS is a concert.
The very best Van Halen song bar none.
Total speed metal song,one of my favs!
Wish I could have gone to this concert live! Amazing just amazing!
To me this is the heaviest VH song they done live it kicks ass
What tempo should we play it at?
How about, "Oh shit, the brakes is gone and it looks like the bridge is down up ahead" kind of tempo?
Best time
They are just fucking blazing on this song! Alex looks gasman just hammering that double bass! Such a killer tune in live, especially. Goddamn I miss this group.
The greatest drummer in the world, drunk or sober lol...

I love this song so much and the whole 5150 album. I wish Van Halen experimented with more heavy metal. Just a song or 2 per album.
I agree...

No shit huh? Alex has always been my all-time fav drummer. Obviously I love many others, but across the board he's The Man in my book.

That was awesome.the musicianship is amazing
Missed this tour and never saw them play this live. So fantastic. RIP Eddie. You were the best.
Best VH song period!
This is so fn good! Eddie is smiling and the band is killing. Doesnt get much better
there is NO QUESTION that this version of VH today, would blow the current version clean off the stage. Its all in the vocals.
Most definitely
RIP, Eddie.
1980.........ths years.....⛰️🏔🏡🌍🌏🌎🌐😁🎇🎆🗺🏖📲📱🌍🤗🏘🌐
So bad ass! 5150 is an incredible album. This song helped take that album into the stratosphere.
This song is so energetic, and I love that little Steinberger
Those electric toms sound awesome
I would have loved to go see this concert even though I never really liked Sammy Hagar I still would have loved to see Eddie the greatest guitarist of all time R.I.P
I feel lucky I got to see this tour in Aug 1986 and had really good seats for a change on the floor 12 rows from the stage
Need to release this on cd!
hes my favorite
めちゃ良い。thank you！
This is a band loaded with talent. Alex's drumming is just pheonomel, Sammy's vocals, MIchael's bass line is extremely complex & then of course you have Eddie.......
Michael Anthony in da place! What a voice!😲
Wow , looking back ….. not another band on the planet can touch this stuff……. Off the fkn chart for full band input 😊
One of the best Hagar era tracks. I wish all the stuff was raging like this. Always felt like they were holding back in their Journey phase.
possibly the best album they did for mine
Boy, no one can hit them high notes quite like Michael Anthony!
Ya. Was thinking about that today. Made me smile to.
woah. :-) intrumental / guitar solo to end is just spectacular :-) awesome guitar - and insane vocals!!! :-D
Michael Anthony: *picks bass with his fingers*
Stage crew: “I think he needs picks”
that tiny guitar is hard to play on I played on it before and so I give Eddie props for that
This tour puts the 1984 tour to shame! More music and less bullshit talks. 🤠
vh is underrated , i hope they will last in future
top of the game
Alex is working his ass off
Yep. This version is even faster than the studio version which is already super fast.
@@pickout2 I've watched this show a million times & it never gets old
How they can have this much fun onstage and hate each other in real life befuddles me.
dave runner
They loved each other at this time, it was around 1993 when they started fighting
@@pathos1016 Ray Danniels fucked everything up when he started managing them
Con la guitarra Steinberg pequeña para llegar bien a los tapping del solo. Un crack!
Eddie van Helen lässt meine Bartstoppel sprießen sehr schrill gut hinbekommen das Gitarrenriff von das Meadchennegzwerk
Soooo great 😃
3:13 best harmony singing bassist in history! :)
This is beautiful man! I love the cord structure!
Speeding tickets!
Wow!!
Van Halen goes Punk Rock :) RIP E.
FUKKING EPIC PEOPLE!!! EPIC
As good as it gets
5150 is an EPIC album, EVH the greatest
RIP to one the goats of rock n roll! Still my favorite Van Halen tune!
