- Van Halen - Live Without a Net is a live concert video DVD of Van Halen in concert recorded in New Haven, Connecticut in 1986, and released the following year. It was of their performance on August 27, 1986 at New Haven's Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The 90-minute release removed a few songs from the full performance. While the band attempted to record the previous night, audio problems prevented it from being used, although some video footage from that night would later surface in concerts video. The concerts were part of the 1986 tour, Van Halen's first rock concert with lead singer Sammy Hagar.
Setlist: Introduction "There's Only One Way to Rock" "Summer Nights" "Get Up" "Drum Solo" "5150" "Best of Both Worlds" "Bass Solo" "Panama" "Love Walks In" "Guitar Solo" "I Can't Drive 55" "Ain't Talkin' 'bout Love" "Why Can't This Be Love" "Rock 'N' Roll" (John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant).

This really hits different now that he’s gone...
Yup 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Definitely hits hard now. We never really appreciate it until they're gone. Godspeed Eddie
Hurts😭
I was already watching this at least once a month before he passed. Amazing concert...
My father showed me this VHS at around the age of 8. It was this show that made me become a guitarist. It hits so fucking hard to home.
In 1987 my brother rented this video from Warehouse Records for a dollar a day. We didn't return it for 88 days. My mom was pissed when we owed $88.00. It was worth every damn penny, haha. The best live concert video ever recorded.
Love it. I still have my duped copy on VHS. I've probably watched it 150 times. So righteously cheesy!
You're both over exaggerating immensely. Although I hope you are not.
I got this DVD for my 18th birthday. I love it
I bet dude I'm 23 they've been my favorite band since I was 8 I'd do the same shit
+luliches are you sure you didn't watch it 5,150 times?
RIP Eddie Van Halen... This one hurts.
this is my fav live vid of ed's playing
Most certainly. I have been in shock since last week. It’s still a joy listening to VH. But a different joy. RIP
i've made a playlist with the best songs from VHIII and VH different kind of truth to make 1 album that's actually good
This one absolutely hurts! Can't believe he's not with us anymore...😪😪😪
Eddie is a real-life Marty Mcfly
He plays future music before his time
Exactly 🙂
Men with a gigantic sense of humor and energy
Eddie played the guitar part from that movie where McFly says "Your kids are gonna love it"
@@warinsidemyhead8939no, he didn’t play Johnny B Goode, but he did record a piece for the movie, the one that Marty plays to wake up George. He called it “Out The Window”.
When you look up backing vocals in the dictionary there's just a picture of Michael Anthony.
Absolutely. Mike is amazing with those harmonies (and Eddie is no slouch, either).
Wow, there literally IS a pic of MA, I looked it up!
@Jason Poole what happened
Those vocals on “Get Up” are insane.
You are correct...the bass solo is a no go
I cried for two days...rock will never be the same
still crying
seen them many times here in Buffalo ny sad the entire city including myself took it hard
Jamie’s not the only one crying
Just Cried!!!!!
ONE OF THE GREATEST CONCERTS IN RECORDED HISTORY!
Just the opening was worth the price of admission..."There's Only One Way To Rock" could've been a cover from Van Halen's backyard party days...and when they played "I Can't Drive 55"? Shows how great they were to decide not to play so many DLR era songs outside of Panama and Ain't Talkin Bout Love...
New Halen fer sure!
Yes
I agree one hundred percent
Sammy was fully established well before VH.
However, his performance here is next level.
I can't think of anyone who could match this.
Well debatable
This is my Van Halen. Rest easy Eddie, you are a legend.
You said it, brother.
THE GREATEST BAND EVER...........TWICE!!!!!!!!!
Except for RUSH, AEROSMITH, and THE ROLLING STONES. As for guitarists, Yngwie Malmsteen is the worlds greatest player. Just my opinion.
@@rdelavarre Yngwie is not a bad guitarist by any means but he isn't the best. All he does is shred and while Eddie Van Halen shreds, Eddie adds feel in his songs. Yngwie has little of that.
@@rdelavarre yngwie Osgood and all but for me his playing is boring. It's technically hard but no fun or soul to it, kinda robotic
I wouldnt call it boring but more so darker. His musical tone isn't "fun" its dark. He plays tons of minors and dark melodies which is great for certain and boring for others. To me, yngwie and Ed are the two greatest to ever do it. The technicality and creativity is something so little people have which makes these two the best to me
You are brilliant!!!
Anyone else here in memorium of Edward's passing? This video is literally the soundtrack of my freshman and sophomore years.
RIP, Edward. The pantheon of guitar gods welcomes you with open arms.
Chris McCabe Sophomore year plus. Then probably 4 or 5 years after its release my good friend transferred the audio to an audio cassette. I wore that thing out.
if ever a musical opportunity were one. this one shaped me.
Right there with ya bro! I used to watch this vcr vid every night soaking up the magic!!!
He is actually running with the devil right now. Legendary guitar hero RIP.
Yes I am viewing this in memorium.
The Balls it took to start the show with a Sammy song...Boys knew they were the Best band in the Universe,didnt matter what they were playing...
Michael Anthony cannot be duplicated - best harmonies in any band, ever
That bass solo was absolutely deafening live.
... Yes, he's one helluva basists I love watching. 🎸😍
I read somewhere that M Anthony was paid somewhat equivalent to some hired musicians and not actually as VH member should get paid. I don't know how true it is but if so then, really feel sorry for him😢..
Although his backups vocals cannot be denied, I beg to differ. 4-part harmonies at the speed of light! ruclips.net/video/zCv9u7TkM0M/видео.html
yes he got fucked over pretty good when they got back together in the early 2000s
I almost agree - Edge for me; but indeed amazing pocket basssist and crazy range backing vocalist.

Thank you
Merci beaucoup 👍
It’s wild they only played 2 Dave tracks . I love all the albums but I that’s mind blowing
you are a god, thank you ❤
Thanks so much man. 👍👍
Haven’t seen any other concert with this much positive energy
Was thinking same thing and best part is it’s all real. Ed had his demons but he loved to play and to party and man does it ever come across here. Should show this concert in mental hospitals...life affirming.
Yes!!
For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Tour, and Monsters of Rock'89 Miami Orange Bowl, are my personal favorite performaces
The energy and sense of urgency as I call it was off the charts!
The dueling guitar solos between Eddie and Sammy from 3:18 - 4:30 was, is, and will always be one of the best live moments in rock history.
Check out Billy Sheehan and Steve Vai’s duel during DLR’s Eat Em And Smile tour
I admit I always forget that Sammy was no slouch on the guitar. Sure he wasn’t as good as Eddie, but the dude could play.
@@robjgolde3221 can play* dude still rocks in 2022
Tour was pretty epic. Glad I was able to catch that one!
Yes I agree that's to legends on stage!! R.I.P Eddie Van Halen
I wish they would remaster this concert and release it as an audio CD. So glad I witnessed this amazing concert live. First night.
Gotta admit, I love the Eddie/Michael harmonies. Amazing.
Greatest Band Ever!
Their vocals were second to none. They honed their chops in LA in the 70s with all the songs they had to play. They had to emulate horn parts when they played funk covers, etc...
sammy & eddie complimented each other on the guitar....too bad they split ! ..but like Dave said :.. ' rock n roll has never been about compromise " & like Eddie said : " better or worse , sounds like us " ..take care sweet leaf..wherever you are now 7 yrs later 😊
One of the best moments: 31:56 - the 'walk' during best of both world intro!
1:24:58
You ready to march!?
Absolutely love it.
Looks like the part from friends with Joey, Ross and Chandler hahaha
I couldn't agree with you more!!!!!
Whomever mixed this concert did an incredible job, especially for 1986.
This needs to restored to 4k and released as an audio file as well.
Am I the only one that thinks it's super cool that they opened with a Sammy song?
Considering it's a Van Halen concert, I don't think it's too cool, but that's just my opinion. They actually opened with "You Really Got Me" on this tour. Not sure why it got cut from the DVD.
@@nedney119 They actual did open with One Way To Rock at this show if I remember correctly. Different set lists most likely. No idea why they cut YRGM from the video though, as I do remember them playing it.
@@vinniebredice7810 Funny thing, I was just discovering real rock and roll when this came out and I spent a month looking for the VH album with that song before realizing Sammy had 10 years of solo albums before this. Oh the pre-internet glory days when you had to scour record stores and magazines for info lol
@@fuzzo73 they prob cut yrgm cos its a kinks song and they already had rock n roll on this, prob to do with royalty rates on the live vhs when cutting up the pie
@@neillp3827 yup, for sure had to do with licensing and royalties
These were concerts and not what we see today.
you got that right !
THIS certainly was!
People are so self conscious and myopic these days, it's not just the phones fault or social media it's the change of social dynamic. Even big rock shows these days there's people more concerned about being cool than having fun with complete abandon and chasing true bliss in the way concerts pre-millennium were never NOT.
Pun2404 there needs to be a band that makes the show look cool, but at the same time has high energy
Unskilled Slash Walk Off The Earth
Ed was really on top of his game here...
Mark Spinello the dude is an absolute beast !
He was at the height of creative and technical power, no doubt about it.
#forget2002-2006
They all were
Thought this was as tight as it gets...and having a blast doing it!
I had this on VHS. It shaped my life.
You and me both.
so much better...with DLR
Mine too, brother. I still have my VHS copy. 5150!!!
Same.
Still have mine watched the bloody fk out of it 👍🏼VHS good times
I must have watched this 10000 times. One of the best live shows in rock 'n roll
Ive been listening to rock N roll for 25 plus years and this is hands down, by far, the best recorded live concert ive ever seen. The crispness of Eddies guitar, hitting every single fucking note, piercing over the resonating drums, Sammys raspy-yet-soulful voice rarely missing key and Michael Anthonys delicate vibrato singing harmonies. As much as i love DLR and orignal VH, it doesnt get much better than this.
💯
Eddie's mouth is always agape because his Guitar is acting like an external extension of his vocal chords. So much human emotional expression going from this man's brain to the Guitar.
Have you ever seen Stevie Ray Vaughan play? 😂😂😂
The way eddie looked at sammy on the guitar solo for love walks in is everything 🔥
This is hands down the best version of that song. Sammy’s guitar leads were perfect.
I was there! This concert rocked! It was the summer before my senior year in high school. Sitting on Eddie's side just made my jaw drop watching him do his thing! TALENT! What a great time the 80's were and VH was a big reason!
All that optimism in the air...we thought things could only get better and better....it was such a blast to be a teen in the 80s
The 80s is the best era of music for me.
Wow! Cool!
@@lucafogliati6050 ❤️
I grew up in the 80's and still cant believe we wore these outfits....awesome!
I can't believe no one wears them today!!!
@Marcel I believe they are pink genie pants of a certain style.
it was loose and comfortable though...
here I go again for the 1,890 time , need my 5150 fix lol
fuck you
no thanks
May Christ Jesus bless you!
christopher perry I don't know were I'm goin'... But I sure know were I've been...
totally
Man, I still feel like I'm at a Van Halen concert when I watch this. I can't believe the King is gone. RIP Edward. Chokes me up so much. Love to VH Universe....
I'm right there with you!!
This live video of Van Halen with a new singer blew me away, they were playing like there's no tomorrow and a lot to prove, and it worked.
I see four guys having a blast on stage, playing a kick ass rock and roll show. It is a shame where music is at today. Somebody playing music off a mac book can become more famous than a guy who can sing, play guitar, play keyboard, and play any other necessary instrument .
+Will Pable the bullcrap made by people that are making money from stupid crap that doesn't deserve to be called a 'profession', it's just getting money for being alive, which is absolute b.s. The people with true talent deserve more attention than all the other bullshitters out there.
Captain Pie Fox And I would bet my ridiculous salary that a handful of MacBook “musicians” has sampled more that their fair share of any one of these songs for their work.
The good news is, there are still plenty of good rock bands out there touring for living and playing killer shows. You just gotta get out there and check 'em out - which admittedly i'm doing less and less of, but once in awhile see a killer show in person and am reminded it's still out there..
Yeah but some people might not have a band. If you do all this yourself and only need to virtually program drums into your song, if the song's good then so be it, band or not.
People today pay 300 dollars to watch someone hit the spacebar on a macbook..
This is one of the most high energy concerts ever put to film. I'm not the world's biggest Van Hagar fan but the 5150 era is by far a peak for the band, everything is just so tight and full of energy, Ed is experimenting with MIDI effects (various delay times in 5150, chorus, etc), experimenting with the TransTrem in Summer Nights and Get Up...
I can't get enough of this concert, and my mom told me she saw this concert when she was in college, so damn jealous haha
I can feel you on the thought. They just came off the 1984 tour and bam. I remember Sammy saying something like "we just hung a mic down in the middle of the studio" Halen then was seriously dripping with peak music...and I believe, IMO, they hit just as good an album with 5150 as they did with 1984. My OPINION only. The energy was there man.....Remember folks, Hagar wasnt exactly a slouch himself...Fucken solo in Summer nights gets me going. That was too long ago.
Chad and TheRealMrPooPyNuTz your right!! I've been to A LOT of concerts and they rank in the top 5. Its been said that 1984 was the pinnacle of their career. I don't think so, Hagar brought new blood! They where never my favorite, hell not even in my top 10, but it was one hell of a show!!!! Eddie can really shred!!!
I agree .. they were so much better live with Hagar . Love Dave but he would skip entire verses,sing off key,forget lyrics etc .. Hagar solo and with Halen was still an entertaining showman but just sounded so much better live .
at the VERY least, opinions of DLR and Sammy aside, in general they became a better LIVE band with Sammy bringing the extra guitar playing. Much cleaner.
Seriously though, I believe Eddie plays totally different when DLR is the front man...and I dig it more...
Alex lost his best friend... kind of like Angus losing Malcolm....
Yup💯😥💯
They been thick as thieves since they were little. There's some pretty great pics of them together as young kids.
RIP LEGEND
Even if they had an argument, it was over quick. According to Sam and Mike, you could never come between Ed and Alex.
Jesus, this is mind-blowing energy, Michael Anthony just owns backing vocals forever, massive Halen fan that had sadly never seen this performance in full until today. Absolutely beautiful x
James Jordan-Davies Definitely go see Sammy and The Circle.Awesome show!
It's timeless and a masterpiece!!!!! My favorite part is that it's without David Lee EGO!!!!!!! Probably too busy staring at himself in the mirror 🪞😂 LMAO!!!!!!??????
Yes , great concert. Is it really necessary though , to take the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ in vain ?
@@user-cq9zl9om6uyes it is
It's great to see them back when they were so full of energy, jumping around having a blast together.
You mean, when cocain was affordable and not shitty like today
cocaine snorting amazing van halen
@@benoitfecteau495
Yes this is true.It was so great during those 2-3 decades wasn't it?? Still fascinates me how regardless of which city/town Van Halen would arrive/play a show in,they would never have a problem scoring drugs,unless their bus was stocked up with enough to last an entire tour.
How come awesome bands like this one can't last forever?
Most bands can only dream of being this good!!!
E-G-O!!!
can’t discredit some modern bands, there’s some insane bands out there today, foo fighters, dream theatre, avenged sevenfold, slipknot, the lot, all amazing
When he smiles at the camera and gives a thumbs up during summer nights, it makes me tear up every time now that he's gone. R.I.P eddie van halen.
Don't have the words to describe the loss of Eddie. Growing up in the 80s when Van Halen came about... so many guitarists could only dream and aspire to be half of what Eddie done for all of us.. We will miss you..!
It's kinda sad seeing how well Sammy and Eddie got along here, and now they don't even talk to each other.
Drugs and Money will do that to you
They sure came back with a vengeance without DLR. Tough to do but they knocked it outta the park. Love the Sammy era stuff
Eddie is an absolute Asshat
@@toasttoasted3492 this comment aged well
Howard Stern said on his show they had started texting each other earlier this year and it sounded like they had patched things up. When Ediie stopped texting him back a couple weeks ago he said he knew the time was near.
MY FAVORITE CONCERT OF ALL TIME.
One of the greatest concerts in History. Rest in peace Eddie ❤️
@@AndreLuiz-dm5mo I love Eddie,but I watched the Sammy tribute,balls and all they kill it! Joe is the man but Mikey's vocals seal The Deal!
these guys are just straight up having a good time
Sammy and Eddie look like they're having the greatest time. So sad what happened
Management happened
@@jkbearhunter yea, money to but in the end there was nothing but love as Sammy said, RIP Eddie and thank you for Wolf, you must be smiling ear to ear up there
I wonder if Eddie ever realized he just played the best live guitar solo ever?!
THE BEST VH CONCERT! NO OTHER GUITARIST HAD SO MUCH FUN PLAYING AS EVH ! THAT SMILE... FLYING EDDIES... HIS KILLER RHYTHM PLAYING... I'M IN FUCKING PIECES INSIDE...RIP.... THANK YOU EDDIE FOR ALL YOU GAVE THE WORLD... FOR ALL THE 'LESSONS' YOU GAVE ME! MY GOSH THIS SUCKS... BUT WATCH THIS CONCERT FOR A GREAT TIME SEEING THE GREATEST BAD ASS GUITAR PLAYER ON THE PLANET....I JUST FEEL SO EFFED
I could not have said it better...so true. Back when metal music was king!!
Same here brother RIP KING EDWARD!!!
.I UNDERSTAND....YOU HAVE SAID IT BEST..EDDIE WAS A TRUE MAGICIAN...I GREW UP WITH VH IN THE EIGHTIES..EVERYONE LOVED THEM..EDDIE WAS ALWAYS MY IDOL..
Two weeks later, and it still hangs heavy with me everday.. I am still crying everyday. Your comment brought on tears, and not everybody's has hit the chord inside of me like yours did.. I dont know you...I may not even like you, but you and I share a love and loss that will always be there... we should all be hugging right now...instead we are distancing....his passing is a true sign of the times we live in now. I have said 100 times in the last 2 weeks that rock will never be the same, but its so much more than just the music, which I will dearly cherish.. for me, LIFE is never gonna be the same without him
I can relate. I feel like I lost my dad..... I am still crying on the outside & in shock on the outside. I may not even pick up any of my guitars again =,(
Undoubtedly, the best version of VH. The entire world would line up for this reunion.
5150 was one of their best albums. It represented the changing time in the 80's.
I was at this concert it probably was the best concert I have ever seen
I'm impressed w/ Sammy on guitar. Wow!
that high note from Michael Anthony @1:16:00 is still making dogs bark at the start of 'Aint Talikn' bout Love' absolutely amazing performance
God bless you Edward now it's my turn to kick back with a cold beer and listen to the greatest guitar player ever....
Till next time.
this was Van Halen at their best! so much damn energy coming off that stage!
One of the best live bands ever 🤟 I've seen this easily 500 times, maybe 800
I think my sister and I were the only teenagers in the 2000s watching this video all the time. Literally the BEST live concert video!
I can never get enough of the Best of Both Worlds intro!
What a completely fucking unstoppable band. They had the chops AND the party. Every show is a Friday night workout.
Those days are long gone in music. Rest in peace Eddie.
Nothing like a Saturday night being home listening to the greatest rock n roll band and the best live concert in my opinion.
It always blows my mind to see Eddie and band playing so flawless completely off the rails HIGH on booze, blow and who's knows what else.
Most of us mere mortals would be totally exposed.
The reason it is flawless is because they completely rerecorded it in the studio. Been well documented. Great video nonetheless. 😉
Scott Bland So you’re trying to convince people that the audio from this concert is not the actual audio but was re-recorded in the studio. Okay...well...all I can say to that is bullshit. You are wrong. “Well documented” lol,get outta here dude.
Scott Bland “well documented” hahaha let’s see some sources cited if you’re gonna throw around accusations like that... burden of proof is on the hater
I saw this Tour in Colorado and I doubt they used any Studio tape for that show!
I doubt there is all that much dubbing here, although the audio is likely cut from more than one show. This is done with classical concerts as well. You got 2-3 nights of shows and with a band this tight, that’s all you need. Just mix and release with maybe a patch here or there for microphone dropouts. pretty much as advertised: Live without a net.
Ed was a wild man, but he was a preternaturally good live player. Amazing sense of pulse - like a great conductor. And he and Al were blue collar types who were constitutionally unable to put out a sloppy record.
they were so happy back then. renewed energy.
my first concert as a 15 year old kid... my mother took us !! she knew we loved VH and picked up tickets in danbury, ct ..m&m tickets. the cost.... $18-20 mark up included. Thanks Mom !! RIP eddie.,,... you and my brother who was at this show are in the HEAVENS now.....
WOW 😳 that's awesome man!!!!!!!!!
@@brentonyancheck4861 ... And Today woulda been my brothers 50th bday !! 12/29/72 ... So, LIVE LONG AND PROSPER .. that show was great, the roar of EVH's guitar at the shows opening ( not on video) is memorable to then 14 yr old ears !
I was also at this show. Awesome concert and also got the tickets from M&M tickets. Really good seats right on the side of the stage.
I grew up listening to Van Halen and saw them multiple times in concert, including on this tour. I’ve got an empty pit in my stomach knowing I will never get to see Eddie or Van Halen perform live again. It hurts seeing that signature smoldering cigarette perched in his guitar. F cancer.
Rest In peace, Eddie.
I got to see Eddie play live 3 times,my life is better for it. I miss this guy so much. RIP King. They'll never be another like you.
I use to rent this on VHS back in the 80's...
I still have it on VHS. Wish they would remaster it and make a Blu-Ray.
At least this was released on DVD in 2004. I've got that.
I got it on vhs for free at a thrift store
I bought it and still have it.
Imagine sayin rent VH on VHS 10x fast haha
This is such a magical performance.
And I saw this Van Halen show live at Alpine Valley Music Theater, it truly was a magical time. Also saw Chicago, Journey, and my favorite band Boston, went to all 3 Boston shows, and met drummer Jim Masdea, and the man himself Tom Scholz at the resort they were staying at. The picture of me & Tom is still proudly displayed in my music recording studio.
Saw them in Atlanta this year. Such memories. i was such a huge Van Halen AND Sammy fan. When they got together I was in heaven. At one point Michael's amp went out and Sammy went over to help fix it. For 15-20 minutes we were entertained with a long Guitar Drum improv duet. So amazing. RIP Eddie. We are all mourning your loss. 2020 sucks
The same happened in Detroit only it was Eddie's rig that went out during the middle of Panama. The rest of the band just improvised a little jam while the techs worked on Eddie's rig.
We will never see concerts or concert films as epic as this. I remember when this aired on MTV. So many memories.
I bought this vid @ 17 in 1987, one of the best concerts ever....
I was at this show...great show. I was also 17
I envy you Diane!!
luckyvet I bought the VHS in '93 aged 20 -We were a bit slow catching VH in the UK! Though it was only a few weeks later when I bought Right Here Right Now :D
IThinkYouLookLarvely I remember buying 0u812 & RHRN like it was yesterday :P
2020 lost another GOAT. EVH will forever be the greatest guitar player. Love and miss ya man.
I was born at Yale New Haven hospital. 1984 was my first ever concert. I was 10. I was instantly hooked on VH.
Was lucky enough to be there for this show, and man...
This is Eddie at his best, if you ask me.
Guy was not only one of the best guitar players of all time, but his energy was always amazing & upbeat. Watching this today for the first time in probably 15+ yrs, and I'm just enjoying how much all the guys are smiling and having a blast doing what they all loved.
Thanks for ALL of the amazing years and material you left behind for the world Eddie. There will never be another❤
RIP LEGEND
Eddie's got to be the greatest guitar ist of all time...his catalogue would beat anyone hands down. Jimi Hendrix or any of the top players is nowhere close to Eddie. Vibrant, high energy, happy, fun, great vibe n tone. Amazing work with Sammy Hagar. King Edward Van Halen! God bless!
THERE'S NO DOUBT THIS IS THE BEST VAN HALEN CONCERT, SIMPLE THE BEST, SOMETHING FROM THE GOD, ED IS JUST A GENIUS , HIS BEST PERFORMANCE. I LOVE VAN HALEN!
My dad killed himself a few years ago. I watch this concert in his memory. A true rock and roll fan. Like father, like daughter.
😢 Omg, so sorry to hear that 🙏💕
Theirs Only One Way....And that's listening to the greatest guitar player ever and that's Mr. Eddie Van Halen!
There’s
best guitar player ever R.I.P Eddie 😢
I unexpectedly got to go see Van Halen in Toronto in 82. I had heard Hendrix and page and rhoads and all the rest and never wanted to play the guitar but after that show I had to. It was the coolest most exciting thing I ever saw. I can't imagine how much trouble listen to Van
Halen records kept me out of but it must have been a lot. Few things were more exciting than hearing a new Van Halen record on the radio. Thanks Ed. Rest in peace. Prayerfully you're smiling now as much as you were during Live Without a Net
ALWAYS play brother Everyday!!!!!!!!!
This is by far one of my favorite live concert videos of all time. I bought the video on VHS the day it was released. This was great times for everyone in the band. 5150 being number-one on the charts, great friendships... It is too bad all of it has turned to utter shit. Let's keep the good memories.
i got the DVD , Great Show , and i like Both era`s the Hagar and Roth era , Van Halen is Just one oft he BEST Hard Rock Bands of All times .
Jimi Hendrix How did you get that username? You must have been one of the first people to join RUclips! :D
I don't know of any other guitarist that played with more joy! Always had a smile on his face as he was jamming! Geez I miss this dude! We lost a great one when Eddie passed!
Still can’t believe it... I’m just glad that we all got to be alive at the same time as the greatest guitar player ever and just how lucky we are to say that. Rest easy Eddie Van Halen
Damn, I was born in the wrong freaking decade. It is truly rare to find this kind of passion in modern music. Glorious.
Born just alil bit too late huh lol I feel the same way
I still bump this stuff out of car's sound system and sub like it just came out. Not a sight you see at all even when it 28 year old playing
yeah we just had to get a record or tape as soon as they were released and listen to them over and over and share the ❤️ every body wants some
When I first saw this video and the dueling solo in "There's Only One Way to Rock," I thought to myself that this is the future of Van Halen. Two guitars - a whole new dynamic to the music. Much to my chagrin... it didn't happen.
I was there! But the first song was “You really got me” and the drums were elevated from below the floor. Great concert!!!
The band at their peak in 84-89....and such a great show. With the addition of Sammy, you had a supergroup...and for 10 years, they were!!!
maybe but the music is awful in comparison
I'm worn out just watching these guys. Incredible energy from start to finish.
RIP EVH- We love you
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
I remember renting this 📼 and when I saw the date it was played and recorded I thought it was so cool it was the day after my 12th birthday.
They're all so happy playing those songs. I love their on stage energy
To me... for all THEIR musical prowess.... you simply can NOT top this as a LIVE testament to VH's incredible musical 'chops'; all of them, not just ed. This and ozzy's 'ultimate sin' vhs tour .. unbeatable for this, me, as a guitarist, musician... This VH recorded concert is just amazing.... play along with it for some motivation!!
+John Martini Ozzy's music is a bit more "leaden " sounding than Van Halen. VH is brighter sounding, he weaves all kinds of interesting guitar phrases into the songs, does more improvising. Ozzy is more theater where as VH is more a straight up rock concert. VH is also just a more creative musician , however the scales ozzy uses are different too. VH uses the whammy bar and crazy string bending techniques, and more pedal effects. I'd say Brad Gillis is the closest I've seen to EVH for spontaneous eccentric playing.
True dat...Iron Maiden the year before, "The World Slavery Tour" in 1984 as well.
This is an amazing performance. I remember watching it on ITV one night when it came out of the blue, with no commercial release in the UK. Luckily I taped it from the TV and played it endlessly. They were electric and it showed the leap from the Roth era to Hagar, who was multi-talented. It took way too long for the DVD release but was still worth it.
It’s been 35 yrs ago tonight! We miss ya buddy! RIP Eddie
Watching this today to heal my aching heart. I saw this show in Toronto and it was the best Van Halen concert I saw. Eddie Van Halen was my idol and still is. Gonna miss that smile and amazing sound he made.
RIP EVH 💔
Sammy really tears it up on the guitar in that opening song, spectacular to see him and Eddie both playing.
The best on-stage presence of any band in that era
RIP Edward! Forever one of my favorite concerts! Playing this for you today Brotha!
Seeing them live is something I'll never forget...R.I.P King Eddie
I got a dubbed copy of this concert from my uncle Dave when I was 12. My lil brother and I watched this concert hundreds of times together, singing dancing and playing air guitar! My brother Jeremy and My uncle Dave will greet Eddie with open arms! I will sit here and watch this show alone in tears remembering all 3 of them!
These guys were at the absolute top of their game here. Sammy brought a higher level of musicianship and integrity. All killer no filler.
This video was my bible back in the 80's! One of the greatest Live performances of ALL TIME!!! RIP EDDIE! My Hero!
