@@MrDaveFab I know the Morning Call was speculating that the backing vocals were pre-recorded, but I don't know for sure. It looked that way though from some of the close-up video's I've seen. I was back in Section 114 so it was harder to tell. They sounded great though! It was such a thrill for me to finally see Dave in concert!
@@MrDaveFab Yes, the backing vocals are at least 50% piped in. Now a days most bands are doing it. Van Halen has been doing it for years once they kicked Anthony out of the band. No way Eddie and his son could sing those backing vocals.
@@MrDaveFab Backing vocals are at least 50% piped in. No bid deal. VH has been doing it for years once Anthony was kicked out of the band. Eddie and his son couldn't hit those notes on the backing vocals.
@@wahoodal0896 So what does that tell you about how valuable a player that Mikey was, and Eddie does nothing, but bad talk him ,plus they screwed him on his partnership of the band, He still gets money from them but I wonder about the ongoing rumors of a reunion, this could be why Dave is out there again??
Wow, he sounds night and day better than he did just a few weeks ago when he kicked off the tour in Vegas and a helluva lot better than he sounded on the entire last VH tour. And I don't think he's lip-synching! Whatever he's doing it sounds like he's finally figured out his vocal issues. This looks like a really fun show. Good to see Dave back, sounding good, and enjoying himself!
@@MrDaveFab Yes, the "can't you see my standing here, I got my back against the record machine" verse is definitely a track. You can hear it very clearly throughout the song and I noticed it in a video from another show as well. But I'm pretty sure Dave is singing most everywhere else.
@@MrDaveFab I'm all but certain the backing vocals are tracks. Read the other comments here. I also had a musician friend of mine listen and he said the backing vocals area definitely tracks. They just sound too perfect. But Dave is singing the rest of the stuff and sounding far better than he was earlier in the tour and on the last VH tour, so I'm glad to see the improvement in his performance.
@@andrewmarinkovich8657 Just the backing vocal tracks are at least 50% piped in. Dave is 100% singing. The reason he sounds better is he is finally singing in a lower key.
Kudos to you Jim powers I've watched these clips over and great close up and the sound is the best I've seen . This sounds faboulus from a lifelong vh dlr fan drummer 2 😂🤣🍻✌❤🇨🇦🎶🥁
This is a David Lee Roth show. Not a van halen concert. You go see DLR Live to have a good time. The crowd seems like they are having a good time. Hes sounding a lot better which is good. I will be going to L A show.
Now That's What I'm Talkin' Bout!.......Ain't Talkin' Bout Love!......Thank You Mister Roth!........For Keepin' The Party Goin' For All Of These Rockin' Years!....You Are The Man!
Right after Jump, starting at about 14:50 Dave is asking... "Did you have a good time" ... "Yes Dave we've always had a good time watching & listening to you, and thank you for still being out there entertaining us after all these years" : )
Looks like Dave gets real emotional around the 15:10 mark. Then he lets loose a jump kick as the song kicks back into gear. This guy can still bring it and even better is he's embarrassing Kiss in front of their own audience on their own stage!! Roth on!
@@markbey9411 , I think Adam Williams is referring to the absence of Peter & Ace, challenging the definition of "KISS" in Roxanne's comment. At least, that's how I took it. Okay, I'll shut up now.
Dave has finally learned to stay within his range. Sounds very good. Man, if he could get Vai, Sheehan, and Bissonnette to sign on for a reunion tour, it would be epic.
What the hell...sounds fine, having a good time, playing to the crowd...what's to complain. The guy has nothing to prove, is still a great frontman and is doing what he digs. We should all be so lucky!
No, they are stable now. It was like that from 96 to 01 when Peter dragged the band down with him until he left and KISS finally could do shows that didn`t suck again.
Dave is the epitome of rock and roll and showbiz. No, he never had nor is gonna have the pipes of a Lou Gramm but the man is one of the top 5 frontmen of all time without a contest. Sounds quite good here
Dave is doing great! I love both Van Halen areas but we all knew Sammy was the better vocalist, but Dave was the showman. Great to see him in a great shape on stage! If only Ed will overcome from that horrible disease and the world could see the almighty VH one more time....
Man, this is so much better than he was sounding at those embarrassing Vegas shows. I don’t know if someone sat him down for a heart to heart to tell him he had to get his shit together or what, but the improvement is dramatic.
I thought he was spectacular in 2007 in the first VH reunion tour, but then let his guard down and got sloppy. Dave was a big part of my youth and I'll never forget all the amazing times I hung out with him at Motley Crue's apartment, the Whisky, The Troubadour and the Rainbow from 1980-1989. I've seen him 26 times, but in a bunch of them it was like he had no ear. After so many rough years, it is heartwarming to see a stream of positive comments here. I'm so happy for him. Long live, Dave! (PS: I hope that guy gets grandma's shower curtain back.)
He's having fun... that's the way life should be.. especially nowadays...fun.. happiness...the world is so divided...concerts are to enjoy... he's not 21years old... he's cool
That was damn entertaining...........Saw VH on FIRST tour in May 78 in Ft Worth and they were awesome.......42 yrs later Dave STILL has the passion and drive and entertaining freakin Rock and Roll magic. I'll take him every day over Sammy Hagars act over the past 10+ yrs and I always loved Sammy BUT Van Halen WAS DLR and EVH and alex and Michael...........period....end of story..........
Ah Dave you killed them out there! you are such a Great Person and You even did the mad Kicks! you always remind me not to take life too serious and just have a good time cause life is short! Love ya Dave! all the way From Australia! 🇦🇺😎❤️🔥 You the Main Man! 💚
Oh Yea, I think that's the bottom line, I don't like it ,Cuz I too was in my 20s when he was , an looked cool , And now. ITS ALMOST NO WAY TO BE COOL AT 63 for me ,66 for Damn Damn u old age
Dance the night away................if I get the time to go to Vegas, my table is near the stage, it would be a fun memory from the past if he would step out and take a dance step or two with me and my room mates.
the show will never be the same without the star he,s gone to that heavenly safe place where all the angels have gone by van Halen Eddie still playing an singing with those cool angels in heaven thank all who still try to make it happen again for us the fans.
David Lee Roth was always my Favorite Lead Singer since the early 80's but some time after departing from Van Halen and after his first few solo albums his high pitched vocals went away and boy do I miss them. I really really hope he can work his way back to singing like he used to back in the 80's when he was at his peak performance level. I don't see why he can't get back to doing it the way he used if he seriously does his vocal training on a regular basis and takes the time to practice until he does get to that level again. He sounded a lot better in this concert than he has previously. So maybe he is working on getting there. He got Just A Gigolo down pretty good and Jump not too shabby either. I look forward to the day when I can go to a David Lee Roth Concert and hear it sound exactly like it's 1986 all over again. Hopeful it will happen anyway lol. C'mon Dave you can do it !!! Eat'em and Smile is my favorite David Lee Roth solo album. :)
I think he did great! Not sure what Gene Simmons is talking about....even though Im a huge KISS fan, i see nothing wrong with DLR being the opening act, great band!
13:06 - I hope when I'm in my mid 60s I can kick like that. I sure can't right now. 🤣 Not his heyday, but he's still a hell of a showman. Wish he was this energetic when I saw him with VH in 2012. I guess tensions in the band and disappointing ticket sales were getting to him back then.
I was at this show last night and was absolutely thrilled to see Dave sing so many of the classics. Great warm up before KISS!
Hey Jamie it sounds great.Were the backing vox pre recorded would you know?
Band is on fire..

MrDaveFab, Yes, all the backing vocals were pre-recorded. All of them.
There's no need to speculate since you can hear the actual young Dave on those backing vocals.
Oh God! I'm transported back to the very early 80's and...LOVIN' IT! The voice of VH still rocks! Keep strutin' David Lee!
16:08 Tears of Joy!!! Great Dave forever!!!
Gotta love the dude. No matter what he sounds like, I always find myself listening . A legend amongst legends...
😂
He can belt...strong vocals.
That was thoroughly enjoyable ❤
Yup, uncle dave is a rock legend
Dave stole the show..no one sings perfect..this is good..bravo on keeping the set list different
I remember Dave being asked about the popularity of the song Jump, and Dave said... "Jump is a verb, and you can't go wrong with a verb"
The Baddest Cat that ever does it!! Diamond Dave is truly one of a Kind!!
So nice of you!
Yes Dave was born a showman. ⚘
He apparently learned what it means to sing on key again after vegas. I can't believe it he has been killin it since opening for KISS
Yep sounds really good..Are the backing vox pre recorded..Can anyone there tell me..All sounds good..
I'm about 100% sure they're canned backing vocals. But barring that, it's a good band, and DLR is sounding better to me than he has in several years!
Yes, he sounds great in a lower key.

What a great show! Congratulations Dave and to your band! Awesome! Keep rolling the dice!
Gorgeous video! Best I've seen so far of Dave in 2020!
Love this guy
Not sure why the negative comments. Dave sounds outstanding. Guy is 65 years old and still belting it out. Good for him.

@13.50 there is a tail off the end of his vocals. Not sure if it's and extended reverb/echo but its definitely worth a listen.
@@MrDaveFab Yes, the "can't you see my standing here, I got my back against the record machine" verse is definitely a track. You can hear it very clearly throughout the song and I noticed it in a video from another show as well. But I'm pretty sure Dave is singing most everywhere else.

Dave will be 66 this year. Kudos for still being out there.
My father is 72 and still sings in his band of 60s music and sounds better than ever before. It's unbelievable how long he's going.
He actually retired now. His final shows in Las Vegas were canceled.
Kudos to you Jim powers I've watched these clips over and great close up and the sound is the best I've seen . This sounds faboulus from a lifelong vh dlr fan drummer 2 😂🤣🍻✌❤🇨🇦🎶🥁
Diamond Dave looks to be having a great time! Sounding good too!!

Yeah a bit better was pretty rough but hey we are all getting older
Lolz. Riiigghht ...
forget the L A show !!!
I wish he did more of his solo stuff. Eat em and smile is a phenomenal album that’s way too underrated these days

I felt that too. David gets really emotional. And I almost cried.
Agree 100% He is outdoing KISS!
That's not KISS, it's a tribute band!
Adam Williams ... I think they are saying he’s opening for KISS not performing with them.

Dave rocks, and his band are absolutely amazing

100% agree, we need it.
Great post.👈🏻💯💥
An American icon! It’s great to see him again!
What the hell...sounds fine, having a good time, playing to the crowd...what's to complain. The guy has nothing to prove, is still a great frontman and is doing what he digs. We should all be so lucky!
It's the David Lee Roth Band! Badass sounds!
Roth kicking ass on this. Every show is better than the last. With KISS every show is worse than the last.
No, they are stable now. It was like that from 96 to 01 when Peter dragged the band down with him until he left and KISS finally could do shows that didn`t suck again.
That's been true since 1977. 😎
DIAMOND DAVE!!! Don't be so quick to judge people. This guy is a face on the Rock N Roll Mountain of Rushmore!
Roth rules! Kiss puts on a show but DLR is the show! Can't wait to see this in Atlantic City this summer!
Dave is the epitome of rock and roll and showbiz. No, he never had nor is gonna have the pipes of a Lou Gramm but the man is one of the top 5 frontmen of all time without a contest. Sounds quite good here

Lol. You say he's up there with Jagger, Morrison, Elvis, Cobain, Plant, Tyler? You're high, pal.
Yes, back in the day. But now when you hear him speak he’s about as sharp as a marble!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gotta admit Dave kicking ass. This is coming from a Sammy Hagar fan. Keep it up Dave. Good on you
Looking good David Lee. God Bless & make the fans & Kiss proud
Man, this is so much better than he was sounding at those embarrassing Vegas shows. I don’t know if someone sat him down for a heart to heart to tell him he had to get his shit together or what, but the improvement is dramatic.
Your right. For some reason some concerts he doesn't sing it through. He's full vocals here.
I thought he was spectacular in 2007 in the first VH reunion tour, but then let his guard down and got sloppy. Dave was a big part of my youth and I'll never forget all the amazing times I hung out with him at Motley Crue's apartment, the Whisky, The Troubadour and the Rainbow from 1980-1989.

Dave is just a great entertainer and he looks like he’s having fun
Make no mistake...the world is a happier place because of Dave.
Gooooooooooood bless you...thanks for recording friend greate
thanks Jim .
Nice to see Dave can still entertain.I am frompower2popmetal and aquamanerik and will be going to the Tampa show.
He's having fun... that's the way life should be.. especially nowadays...fun.. happiness...the world is so divided...concerts are to enjoy... he's not 21years old... he's cool
Wonder what 1978 Dave would say about this guy?
He'd say , " Have fun and take it easy."
I live near Allentown. I remember when Jump came out in early 1984 and the other two came out in 1985 after he left Van Halen.
Glad to see he is still hammering away at the stage but those facial expressions along with those smiles to himself are kind of eerie .
Love David Lee Roth✌🏻
That was damn entertaining...........Saw VH on FIRST tour in May 78 in Ft Worth and they were awesome.......42 yrs later Dave STILL has the passion and drive and entertaining freakin Rock and Roll magic.

Daves the greatest frontman eva
BEST! 👍
You really big man awesome
I’m so happy that he started singing well after the KISS shows
I love Diamond Dave.
One of the few people on Earth to see their singing ability go before their kicking ability!
He's living proof we all are growing old 🤣
Oh Yea, I think that's the bottom line, I don't like it ,Cuz I too was in my 20s when he was , an looked cool , And now. ITS ALMOST NO WAY TO BE COOL AT 63 for me ,66 for Damn
Damn u old age
I was there and I was dancing the whole time! Dave enjoyed it because he was watching me dance for like 5 seconds 😂 He was in his element.
Dance the night away................if I get the time to go to Vegas, my table is near the stage, it would be a fun memory from the past if he would step out and take a dance step or two with me and my room mates.
The best front man ever!!!
Yup
@BIG HORN MGTOW
DLR
Mick Jagger
Freddie Mercury
Steven Tyler
I rather watch bruce Dickinson of iron maiden he's a lot better showman
Go watch Freddie Mercury, and then delete your comment!
Dudes a utter joke. Embarrassing to say the least
Happy Thanksgiving! 👒🦃🦃🦃🦃
That's a damn great show. I wish he did a world tour.
yatsenkoanton .....yeah, he could play at the local Walmart by the TVs
I'll be there tonight in Charlottesville, Virginia at the JPJ arena
I love Diamond Dave there's no VH without him
the show will never be the same without the star he,s gone to that heavenly safe place where all the angels have gone by van Halen Eddie still playing an singing with those cool angels in heaven thank all who still try to make it happen again for us the fans.
He sounds MUCH better!!! Can't to go to the show next week!
Love this!
Grande Dave!...Bravo!
One of the best frontmen of all time. Sounds way better than he did in Vegas.
Dave is a great performer love his voice
Singing to background track...im convinced. But i love you dave. And i forgive you.

Liberace lives
Sono italiano e amo la musica anni 70/80 e devo dire che porco cazzo Dave a circa 70 anni fa paura ed è un piacere ascoltarlo. JUMP
Is that Larry from Three's Company?
❤❤
How does the keyboard player play the keys *and* trigger the backing vocals from the album?
MIDI
Everything is played to a click track so the band knows exactly when to trigger certain sounds
Awesome!!!
He may not sound his best but at least is not lip synching and telepromting the lirycs like so many other old rock stars. Plius he looks so happy.
He sounds awesome
I noticed that vest in the Vegas video.....wondered if it is Dad's......made me miss him. God bless.
sounds great
Props to his band. To pull off a Beach Boys song, you need a group full of solid singers.
Hell yahoo yeepy ya 🇬🇧
Wow, Dave sounded good! He gave it some effort. Loved this video.
Pretty damn good DLR! Heart (and ear) warming
Он супер🎉❤!!! Он просто супер!!!!
Good job.
DAVE still got it
Go get them Dave 👏 💪 Gene deserves this and Paul as well 👏 👍 👌 🇬🇧
I'd still do you, Dave!!!
Lol...Me Too!
Bravo Dave
One of the better performances I've seen of him this year
He’s not in his 20’s anymore, but he sounds better than he did a couple years ago
Looks like Wolfie is having a good time behind the drums
Dave, give me a call
LOL!!!!!
He is in tune as any rock singer - looks like fun.
Didn't he play in Lost in space? 😅
Dave's turned from a Rock Star to a Lounge act.
Dave has it going on still and his band can compete
13:06 - I hope when I'm in my mid 60s I can kick like that. I sure can't right now. 🤣
Not his heyday, but he's still a hell of a showman. Wish he was this energetic when I saw him with VH in 2012. I guess tensions in the band and disappointing ticket sales were getting to him back then.
Do we know who all is in his band?
dlr is back
