It looks like a lot of fun and its unfortunate the whiney/bitchey vh fan base is being nit picky like usual. I do kind of wish they added unchained to the set or that mike, joe, and jason could’ve worked up hot for teacher in some way.
Loved it... Even if we can see hagar not in top form. But it is the firdt gig, they still find their groove. I felt like this for dickinson solo tour... First few gigs were great, but todays one are phenomenal
I find it ridiculous that the comments say without EVH it's not Van Halen.... of course it's not Van Halen it's just a tribute.... lots of crying idiots in the comments
There are only 4 Drummer's That can hold it together while singing and banging away like that Kelly Keagy, Gil Moore Ex Triumph Drummer, Phil Collins and Deen Castronovo
Could have been a bit stronger belting it out the song. I’m glad they’re playing this song. I know they can do it better. I think Vic would have played it better thank Joe. Glad Sammy is using a keyboard guy
@@capnmo6718 That is true, but what is even weirder than anything is Sammy Hagar for not taking responsibility and pretending like it never happened. That is even Lower . In fact 2 Octaves lol Lower Sammy Sings, a song Dave could feel and sing in the Original key,have you seen Dave dance lately.? That´s Entertainment.....Trala la la la...la la .
Funny, back in the 80s I thought Satriani was a tier above EVH in playing ability. Yet here he is and he can’t get the last 10% of EVH. But maybe that’s how it is, to be a great guitarist- you have to do your own thing and ignore every one else
Help me understand why more attention was given to a no name keyboard player, than there was to Jason Bonham, the son of John Bonham when videoing this? 🤦♂
It’s the closest you’ll ever get to Van halen again and considering their age Mike , Sammy and joe are doing a fantastic job. Sounds better than what Roth did in 84
@@mattyb5429 It’s not Van Halen, sadly. That died when Ed did. No wonder Alex is giving this a wide berth. Ya know, sometimes you need to let things go. You can’t recreate something as special as what Van Halen was, as a band. So there’s no need to try. Not that they’re going to tour Australia, but, if they did, I’d pass.
As much as I respect Satch and Jason for doing this (you can tell how committed they are, sounds really good) if you remove the "Halen" from Van Halen... all you get is a glorified cover band. It's particularly hard for Satch... Eddie IS the sound of VH, no one can touch that. Maybe that YT kid, Jacob Deraps, but there's no way they'd pick an unknown guitarists for this gig.
Really? Are you that petty and small minded? Sammy is doing this for the fans, and he and Mike are the only members of VH who are out keeping live VH music alive. This is for the fans and Sammy knows that honoring the music and the fans is the way to pay tribute to the music of VH. Unlike DLR Hagar does not have a titanic sized ego that keeps him from doing anything but worshiping himself. DLR could not sing any of the Hagar era songs even if his ego would let him. DLR's vocals on the last tour were pathetic at best.
@@karensylvia9423 You are that petty and small minded. I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt but you destroyed all doubt with that response. Mike A is a great world class back up singer whose falsetto voice and range especially when he was younger were amazing. The only way that Mike would be able to sing lead vocals on a DLR song better than Sammy is if the tune was a better fit for Michael's current range vs Sammy's current range. It is clear that you have some major angst and bitterness towards Sammy. Well here are some facts for you. Sammy didn't need Van Halen to have a successful music career. DLR did. Sammy is very wealthy now. Unlike DLR, AVH and EVH Sammy is a legit businessman and he is also a big league philanthropist. Sammy does not need to do this tour for the money. He is doing this for the fans and or the music while he still can. Sammy called out the VH camp for the dysfunctional BS as did EHV's own son WVH. Lasty, both Don Landee and Ted Templeman have gone on the record stating that Hagar as a singer is far superior to DLR in every objective measure. Moreover, Cherone has gone on record stating that Hagar's material is far harder to sing than DLR's material. Hagar was going to be the original singer for VH because Templeman was going to ditch Roth due to his ego and lack of vocal talent before VH released their first record. In the end Templeman decided that having a vaudeville entertainer front man who was a mediocre singer was a better fit for VH at that time of their career and the rest is history Sammy has NEVER been jealous of DLR in any way shape or form. Sammy has no reason to be jealous of DLR. Hagar is out on tour and can still sing although not at top form. DLR is not on tour and could not draw flies on tour now given how poorly he sings. DLR stunk it up so bad on the last VH tour that fans were complaining, and if VH went out on tour again, EVH knew that he would have to get Hagar or Cherone back to pull it off because DLR did not have it any more
Hagar sounds limp and uninspired. So much for doing it for the fans - and for Eddie. 'I didn't write this one', he says. We know. But Eddie wrote the music, so if this tour is supposed to be in part to honour Eddie, get over the fact that Roth lives in your head rent free, and just sing the song for Eddie and the fans. I prefer the original Van Halen but I also really like Van Hagar, but Hagar is just a putz on this tour so far. He either lied or backtracked about this being partly a VH legacy tour.
Of all the videos of this concert I’ve seen, this is by far the worse. The others have been awesome. This sounds so half hearted. Sammy sang this song in VH the times I saw them and he did great. This, not so much.
@@00big_chungus00 Take away Roth. And there is no Van Halen. Eddies & Sammy put out bubble gum love rock songs, Dave's Van Halen and some of his solo stuff are masterpieces!
Yup he looks old for maybe a 50 year old. Dude is loving life giving fans a last chance. Stop hating on everything be positive and good things will come. Yes this is not Van Halen but it is a damn good time.
Sammy looks amazing for 76
Satch said he's always avoided playing anything like Eddie! Maybe he should have embraced it a little! They sound fantastic 😍
This is respect 🎉
Glad he sang a couple roth songs. Even tho ill always side with Sam. This looks like it was a great concert. :-)
It looks like a lot of fun and its unfortunate the whiney/bitchey vh fan base is being nit picky like usual. I do kind of wish they added unchained to the set or that mike, joe, and jason could’ve worked up hot for teacher in some way.
You don't like Sammy
Very cool 😎 thanks for sharing!
Thanks for posting these :)
Glad they are doing this tour...The Van Halen brothers are lucky to have their music represented properly
Joe Satriani is amazing. One of the few that can do Eddie
Ibsaw Satch and Vai play.... They were Phenomenal!!!!
Do you can't use.. better replace imitate or revive
Loved it... Even if we can see hagar not in top form. But it is the firdt gig, they still find their groove. I felt like this for dickinson solo tour... First few gigs were great, but todays one are phenomenal
Sammy and the boys SLAYING it! So HAPPY for them!
Fuckin’ Mikey!
Frank Zappa on the keyboards, awsome!!
Straight from the UMRK
Funny you
Funny you FZ was best on....... Gibson
Zoot allures 1982 St. Etienne
Oh I wish, I miss the mighty Frank Zappa!
It's so weird seeing this song live with an actual keyboardist.
Man...Joe must have had to get heavier gauge strings to play these songs a full step lower for Sammy. I love it though..
During van Hagar, the band used to sing it a step higher than the original for Sammy’s voice.
Man they sound good mike is a beast on vocals
I find it ridiculous that the comments say without EVH it's not Van Halen.... of course it's not Van Halen it's just a tribute.... lots of crying idiots in the comments
Some people will never move on 😅
I assume you are intellectual
The best Mr Sammy Hagar
Would love to see them play more of the old van halen. Like mean street and out of love.
This is pretty good honestly
There are only 4 Drummer's That can hold it together while singing and banging away like that Kelly Keagy, Gil Moore Ex Triumph Drummer, Phil Collins and Deen Castronovo
Ain’t heard Sammy sing this since 2004 bro😭
I think you might have made Dave a little jealous! You still sound great after all these years!! Sherry-St. Louis
Still can't sing Dave's songs. A bad imitation.
Best live version of heard of Jump in Years!
uhh... no
@@supadupahilton6848i take it you’re a big fan of the re-recorded version dave did
@@knightfall9394at least hes having fun I guess
Amazinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng
Could have been a bit stronger belting it out the song. I’m glad they’re playing this song. I know they can do it better. I think Vic would have played it better thank Joe. Glad Sammy is using a keyboard guy
He didn't leave it to Mike this time.... strange🤔
Sounds way better than the crap Dave did in Las Vegas. Lmao !!!!!
Please live and let live
Anthony 👑
It’s always weird to hear Roth era songs sung in key.
😂
That's true, but it's weirder to hear them sung with no life or semblance of entertainment.
Still sounds 10x time better than Roth these day
76 year old Sammy sings Jump 10x better than Roth at age 30. Go figure:)

If Mike dropped the poundage he would sound even better. It's gotta be hard on tour and at that age.
Please Mr Mrs isn't the moment topic or right for you to speak so such 😢 you which can't top Michael Anthony
Sounds horrible
The only way Hagar can sell tickets is by singing Dave's songs. No one wants to hear that Bubble gum love songs Hagar Van Halen Crap.
I would have wished for a different song to end the concert.. just my opinion
Yeah SuperBamd!
Rock on 🤘
Help me understand why more attention was given to a no name keyboard player, than there was to Jason Bonham, the son of John Bonham when videoing this? 🤦♂
This is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, keyboard focused songs of the last 100 years. That would be my guess.
Literally one of the most iconic synth songs ever, what do you think?
Que paulada! 😂😂😂😂
Fucking awful. 😂
Ufff... sad performance...
Awesome!
Great tribute 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm not sold. It sounds just like what it is - a Van Halen cover band. This is quite tepid really.

@ Joe you have better play the opening riff... Wrong

"I never liked this song" - Sammy right before he did that.
I left the concert before this song was played… I have no desire to see Sammy sing this song without Eddie Van Halen. Just stupid.
You enjoy what's left of David Lee Roth lol
Why did u go?
Yet u went to the concert? What an idiot
