I was there. One of the best shows I've ever been to. Biggest food fight in between bands I'd ever seen lol. Buddy of mine ended up getting a concert shirt when someone threw it during one of the food fights. I still talk about this show.
I was there too!! And the food fights were crazy insane. I was on the field and about 15yrds back from front stage. My buddy bought a hack concert shirt and was pissed when I showed him it said HV instead of VH 😂😂😂
remember the 2 girls stripping on the right side of the bowl.. after the cops made them stop and then they ended up on stage with Eddie :) that was a wild ride.. i was on the ground floor in the middle of the mud fight that went on after the fire hoses and then rain :)
Evidently Sammy had an injury where he fell on some stairs a few days before this.....stitches, fractured tail bone, dislocated vertebrae..... 41 years old and still made all the shows.....
I wish I remembered them. Was there but too wasted by the time they came on. 😲 I do remember Kingdom Come, Metallica, little of Dokken and Scorpions. That was soooo crazy. It was soooo hot, there were massive food fights and I remember people were ripping out the chairs and throwing them at us on the field.
OMG the Food Fight😂,I was like 10 but I remember that WHOLE show like it was yesterday,I remember bumping into Eric Carr from Kiss, and he took me Backstage and I met a few of my Idols, wow great memories...Dokken made everyone sing this cheesy song to make the Rain STOP..lol...but it actually worked and Metallica hadn't blown ☝ yet but their set was amazing......I had ketchup and Mustard all over me and had to run to the right of the stadium.Cause all the Food was coming from the LEFT SIDE...I remember getting there mad early and Kingdom Come took forever to come on but I had a really good spot in the front....R.I.P. Eddie 😪
I was there. Saturday June 4th, 1988 at the Orange Bowl in Miami. All day Kick ass event! One of the very best concerts I've ever been to. I miss those days!
I was 15. My b friend Paul me and my dad. Dad had an impacted tooth and after Metallica the bass was too intense, he hsnded me $100 and went out to the truck. My 1st show. Huge Van Halen fan and Eddie. Had to stay near the back during Metallica but made our way to 5th row after. Paul got a dokken bass pick! When Sammy does triangle of horns and points into the audience he's pointing at us. We had our hands up the whole time. 🙌 best show ever. When they lit the logo up at the end we were soaking wet. Amazing. Thanks for posting
I liked the other stage set they used on this tour, as opposed to this one. Having the two speaker towers on either side of the stage with the VH logos at the top, just looked better, hehehe!!!
I was about 20 feet away from EVH, remembering how hot is was, they brought a fire hose out to cool us down earlier that day, there was a lot of crazy stuff going on too, do you remember?
I was there, does everyone remember the two ladies who showed everything to the whole stadium! Then they ended up on stage with Van Halen later 😂 Also if you were there you remember most people were there for Metallica.
Thank you to the person who made this available like this!!! I was there!! Main reason I went was to see Van Halen with Sammy!! Still some of my most favorite music. That day was one of a very few, especially back then, times that I've ever that much fun while I was sober. It will always be one of my most cherished memories. When I got home, I named a kitten after Sammy. She was the best cat ever, too!!
My First Van Halen Show flew from Puerto Rico to Miami then drove to Tampa for next day show BEST TIME EVER
glad i got to see Eddie before he left us....

Ian Scott and some were hanging out behind a barrier stage left before they went on. We tried to get him to come over and say hey but he only waved.
I was at the JFK stadium 2 c EDDIE! was a great show and I still have my T- shirt! 👕
I was with a friend down on the field near center stage. Freaking dude blasted the audience with a firehose. About took my head off.
