Live Without a Net is a live concert video of Van Halen recorded in New Haven, Connecticut, in 1986, and released later that year. It was of their performance on August 27, 1986 at New Haven's Veterans Memorial Coliseum. 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 music videos. The concerts were part of the 5150 Tour, supporting the album of the same name, Van Halen's first with lead singer Sammy Hagar.
In the US, Why Can't This Be Love went to number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and hit number one on the Cashbox Top 100, the week of May 16. It was a top 10 hit in the United Kingdom, Australia and Germany and a top 20 single in Canada, the Netherlands and Sweden.
Eddie Van Halen wrote the track on an Oberheim OB-8 keyboard. It was one of his first songs where Sammy Hagar said, "You don't mind if I follow your keyboard melody do you?" And Eddie said, "No, not at all," though he really didn't like the vocals to follow his instrumental parts. Eddie would have rathered the vocal line act as a counterpoint.
5150 was a detour from the band, and the direction they would continue on centered around a more keyboard-driven sound.
“The old people that were in doubt, they heard (imitates keyboard riff notes) ‘Why Can’t This Be Love’ and they just went, ‘Whoa, this is a new sound for Van Halen,'” said Hagar in 2023. “You know that keyboard riff sounded like a guitar riff. [Whereas] previous stuff like ‘Jump’ sounded like a synthesizer. So some of the hardcore guitar people rebelled a little bit, but they got a whole new audience with that. And we just satisfied them, and they stayed. And we just went out, and every show sold out in minutes, and we went out and just killed it."
During the 5150 and OU812 tours, Eddie Van Halen played the keyboard parts (using either a Kurzweil K250 or Yamaha KX88 connected by MIDI to an OB-8 backstage) while Hagar played the guitar parts and the solo. For the For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge and subsequent tours, Van Halen took over the guitar parts and the keyboards were played backstage. Starting during the 1995 Balance tour, Michael Anthony and Eddie Van Halen would sing the second verse of the song during live performances. They would continue to do this on both the 1998 and 2004 tours. - Розваги
What a crazy concept: no backing tracks or laptops, just talent.
Grandes bandas como pink floyd, genesis, gnr y muchisimas mas han usado laptops y backing track, hay algunas cosas que si o si se necesitan.
People tend to forget what a great guitarist Sammy is. He’s doing all the heavy lifting live while Ed is playing keys. It fortified a different sound than what they had with Dave.
Excellent, love the Sammy era!
He is playing mostly basic bar chords…hardly “heavy lifting”. Eddie is carrying the song here.
@@cerd6292 and here comes the expert to piss in everyone’s pint . Hooray for you sir ! No politely fuck off 🖕🏻
I believe Sammy was at the absolute peak of his vocal prowess here. Just killing it. 😎
@@cerd6292 and singing in tune, and dancing, and moving and owning the crowd,
Damn THIS album WAS the "Summer of '86" . . . what a great time to be 15 years old with this cassette tape on my Sony Walkman AND riding my "Hutch Trickstar" BMX 💯 😎 👍 😍
The good ol' days
I'm pretty sure we had the last great decade. We had it all. But most importantly, we had the best rock music.
17 years old - same vibe. ;)
В СССР он тоже был популярен у Молодежи но Его не крутили по радио а стоил как 50% от Зарплаты в Месяц !
I had a friend who was always one step ahead of me on VH. I was sitting in home room 1986 and our morning show was about to end. My buddy was the camera man and audio guy. All of a sudden I hear the keyboard intro to WCTBL. I had no idea that he had recorded the single on FM radio. As soon as I heard the keyboard, I looked at my friend Thad and said, this is the new Van Halen. I just knew it. It blew me away. I spent the Summer of 1986 listening to Van Halen, drinking beer, driving back roads, and getting laid for the first time.
0:11 That is a professional beer throw by whoever that roadie was! Spot on..lol
Van Halen was great with Sammy Hagar, and this song is a great example.
This album literally saved me when I was a teenager that year
❤Super Show,ÉNORME ❤
Van Hagar is another level of VH
Yes a much LOWER level.
@@kurtp8833 Ha, bollocks. Roth couldn't stand up against 1986 Van Halen live.
Yes and Sammy is lovely guy, Roth is an arrogant arsehole
Yeah, the sub basement. Hagar may be able to sing higher (and higher, sraight up he'll climb) but so wha? That don't mean jack. Van Hagar is a bunch of boring AOR synth love songs with a couple of decent ockers thrown in here and there. Get Up is pretty cool. Finish what ya started is kinda cool faux country. Nothing much else from Van Hagar comes close to standing side by side with anything from the first 4 VH albums. It's not even as good as Diver Down FFS.
@@stevenlornie1261 Eat em and smile band shit on Van Hagar from a great height.
OMG, I used to watch this show in VHS video hundreds times 35 years ago. It is incredible to watch this in 4K now! Let me buy a coffee.
I still have my VHS somewhere
Damn, those live vocals by Hagar.
When Sammy joined VH they became a juggernaut. Watching this and seeing Eddie happily playing keys while letting Sammy playing Eddie on guitar brings a smile to my face. And yes, Sammy is a damn good guitar player.
Eddie really wanted to be seen as a well rounded musician and not just a guitar player, and Sammy allowed him to have the freedom to express himself.
One day we will get an official 4k remaster of LWAN. Until then, Crosscut Films is doing the Lord's work.
It is impossible for an American to write a phrase without a reference to their “god”.
It is impossible for a douchebag to not opine and complain about a reference to God.
It is impossible for imbeciles to not make a big deal about anyone referencing their deity even in passing.
It is impossible for a dolt to not opine and complain that someone referenced God in passing.
Just to make you complain more:
'Forbes: Remembering A Guitar God: A Conversation With Eddie Van Halen [Oct 6, 2020]
Steve Baltin: Did you always feel a special kinship with music?
Eddie Van Halen: Every idea that the man upstairs gives me I have the pain in the ass job of, “Okay, god, what are you gonna lay on me next?” Because he lays stuff on me, then I gotta figure out how to make it work, which is not easy... '
@@jurgencuypers8350god is great! F whatever you’re on
So much joy in this performance. This iteration of Van Halen had amazing chemistry and stage presence.
5150 is such a legendary album
Dreams love walks in best of both worlds summer nights 5150 and this are classics
Get up! My favourite song of all time.
Sammy Hagar's live singing/playing/moving around is up there with the best
Watch the video noone is singing
Took me right back to the Summer of 86 blasting it on the balcony overlooking Myrtle Beach with my friends.
For me, it was a summer in Poland during a great economic crisis, huge inflation and the collapse of our occupier, the USSR - we were waiting for better times.
But I was 17 years old and happy. summer is the same everywhere. ;)
Hell ya!!
WHAT A HE'LL OF A BAND!!!!!!!!💓🔥🔥💓🔥🔥💓🔥🔥💓
Oh man! God bless you! The quality is in the top of the world!
Like someone mentioned below, this was watched religiously at my house in VHS format. It;s one of the best concert video performances ever captured!
Anything from this tour shows the pure joy they're experiencing playing with each other...always puts a smile on my face! Thanks VH and CCF for the upscale!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant.. DVD has been stored away 🚀🙏🎸
Man I miss those days
Wow best ever VH line up
Vh is awesome in all line ups.
격한 감동입니다.
I worked every date of the 5150 tour in 1986, in BTO, the opening act.....great to find this video.....takes me back....
Don't know if he did it during the whole tour, but I was there when Leslie West came out & played a few songs with BTO. Didn't expect that, but was happy it happened.
there was the idea that Leslie would become a new member of BTO, but it didn't really work out. He only played a few dates with us. I loved working with him - he was awesome, but (partially because Randy and Timmy Bachman were mormons, and Leslie was a bit of a partier) it didn't end up being a good fit. Cool that you saw one of those shows, and then found this post. Feel free to check my channel. There's a playlist called Evidence of Noise, where I've uploaded some concert stills and footage from that tour....
My fav HS concert in Jacksonville, Florida! Many thanks.
awesome
@@willswitchcraft Thank for the info, and the heads up. I'll check it out.
That show still ranks in the top 5 of the best I've seen.
I miss Eddie. These were great days.
Not one filler on this one. Even the joke track Inside is a masterpiece. 5150 forever !
I was 10, I remember that concert, watching it on my cousin's tv
I’ll be seeing Sammy this year. I heard he’s doing a ton of Van Halen music with Joe satriani. Satch is excited. So am I hope Eddie is rocking out to the huge tribute that is gonna be held for him. This whole summer rock out with Sammy.
Замечательный был бэнд!🎉
notice... sammy playing several songs on guitar with ed on keyboards. next level. impossible with DLR;s ice cream shizzle. inCredible job Sam. tx.
Solid keyboard player man. And especially knowing his childhood! Amazing! Good times never die ❤
Such talent on that stage, Sammy on guitar and most impressing, Eddie's killer keys
They opened this tour here in Shreveport, Louisiana. Valerie’s family lived here at the time. I graduated from high school with her brother Pat. Great Times, great memories!
When VH Was Number One for the first time with Sam❤
I love ❤️ 🎉this song ❤️ 🎵 💕 it takes me back to my youth when I was young and free 🎉🎉
Seen that band the first time in ´78 in Hamburg as support for Black Sabbath,,,,´till the day I check out: I will ALLWAYS loooooooooooooooooooove VH!!
So cool, thanks again!
Another great job. This was such a great show and it was the same when seeing it live back in the day. I think I still have my 5150 tour shirt in our Garage.... LOL
We need a full live without a net show. This is just epic..... thank you so much.
What a band. What a lineup. Thanks for the upscaling. Looks great!
Thank you!
Goddamn, I loved this band.
What a great show-Vancouver B.C.,86
seeing it there you mean? This was in New Haven
Sammy is so freaking cool. And besides, the balls it takes to get up and play guitar in concert in front of EVH. You know you're gonna get compared to him and there's just no comparison.
I sure miss open floor concerts ❤
So effing good
I can get why this hit number 3
That keyboard player's pretty good. I wonder if he plays any other instruments?
I think he plays the electric drill as well.
So good !!!
Only time will tell if we stand the test of time
I like how Sammy still held on to his Red Rocker persona....
Van Halen 🤙👍
0:50 i like how eddies guitar thats probably worth millions of dollars is just laying on the ground in the background
Van Halen w Dave was amazing!! Dave was and is the best frontman ever! BUT, live his vocals sucked after 3 songs, Sammy brought the live performance to another level because he could sing a whole concert perfectly and play the guitar very well! I really wish they could have stayed together. Don’t get me started on how awesome Mike Anthony is!!!
2:31 So much fun to dadadoom along
無理せずがんばってほしいです
When concerts were events and badass fun!!
God Bless Eddie!😊
Iconic drum sound.... Alex VH 🔥🤟
a LOT creepy --- audio is off ... but watched to the end! ;)
What software was used to upscale this so clean?
It's a multistage process using Shutter Encoder, Topaz Video AI and DaVinci Resolve Studio.
❤ this is it ❤we miss you Eddie 💖
Sammy Hagar is like: Shit, gotta make the song last longer...this is my only chance to show my licks.....🤘🤘🤘🤘
Montrose, his solo career! 🎸🎸👍👍😎😎
When Sammy plays guitar, Eddie needs to play a backseat on keyboard...lol
Rock!
A little hard on that Kurzweil K250, Eddie.
I also noticed the missing keys...A hard life on the road !
Sammy brought more depth and layer to Van Halen
Hello, could you tell me the name of the software? I need it for a personal video.
VAN HALEN FOREVER!!!
❤
Michael Anthony's face looked freakishly unrealistic in some of this AI processing.
It was the Topaz Video AI doing that?
What time in the video
@@CrosscutFilmsSask Hmm I watched it through again and did not notice it the second time through. Might have been my imagination!
@@beardymcbeardface69 Appreciate you taking the time to do that. This helps me with future vids. 🤜🤛
❤SUMMER 2024 WILL BE BIG ROCKIN ❤😂😂😂
Glad I got to see this incarnation of VH before Eddie's substance abuse and lies about MA tore them apart.
Synth parts would sound just as good on a guitar with FX.
Ahahaha... a guitarra dele está com volume bem baixo, faltou um pouco de confiança
That grin! Man do I miss Ed.
Contemporary electric guitar playing starts with EVH.
B'z軍団よりNOWいね〜P。☆
I luv when Sammy sings his lips don’t move, wtf is with this video? Lol
Video was shot on two consecutive nights in New Haven but the audio from night one wasn't usable but the director used footage from both nights.
Don't blame me, blame the original editor and director.
A fase do Van Halen sem o David Lee foi uma merda.
" it's got what it takes ". Sounded like a commercial for Burger King back then, and still does to this day.
I hear Sammy‘s voice, but sometimes I don’t see his lips moving.
The concert video is footage combined from two consecutive nights in New Haven as the audio was not usable from the first night. Sometimes clips from the first night are used along with the audio and video from the second night. That's one the editor and director if they're mismatched.
in 86 what was the ratio of ppl that hated seeing Eddie on the keys?
Sammy and Eddie Michael Anthony and Alex (The Best 0f the Best) PERIOD!!
I know that there are two camps regarding which singer was the best, well for my money I would say Sammy was the total package and Diamond Dave was a one trick pony, not hating just stating my two cents.
Sammy's kramer sounds better than Eddie's. Tonewise
The sad fact is that they never got back to former glory after DLR was sacked
It was probably a mistake ?
But worth a try ?
Maybe DLR was more than a mouthfull ? Became to popular way fast ?
DLR wasn't sacked - he quit.
Don't get me wrong, Sammy is great, but......add him to the list of 469 billion other people who don't play the guitar as well as the inimitable Eddie Van Halen. RIP
Nice joke. Sammy is great guitarist. Is not Eddie, but nobody is Eddie ok? So move on and continue with your life
@@montauta Also, Eddie's live playing is superior in energy, feel, and tone compared to the "hiding under a tent" Alan Fitzgerald keyboards that came later (and the straight up backing tracks that came even later). No, Sammy isn't as sharp on guitar as Eddie (duh!), but this configuration really pops for this situation. You rarely see a keyboard player having some much fun on stage, and his intensity comes through in the sound. Eddie is a god of rhythm as well, and this translates across all instruments, of course!
ну так и я могу
Eddie tenía los pantalones más feos que verás sobre la tierra😂
"4K"? You mean, "Blur-A-Vision." LOL.
Let's see your version.
I love all of Roth and Sammy VH music but sure don’t listen to live Roth concerts….
would be cool if h was actually singing... it's a SHOW kids...
Huh? Sammy sang live on this. There's no backing tracks or Alex would be wearing headphones.
Sorry Mike you just don’t fit in anymore………….Van Halen slowly declines into reforming with old singer who can’t sing the old songs correctly.
Literally noone is singing. Great, guys 😂😂
Sure, if you say so. 🙄
Ok 1:00 to 1:10 who is singing? 🙄
@@CrosscutFilmsSask Hello?
@@garymitchell5899 The concert video was shot over two nights in New Haven. The audio from the first night was unusable. Apparently the editor and the director both missed the lack of sync on those shots. Having shot many live music videos myself, cutting together multiple takes into one video can be tricky - there are MANY times I'll take footage from a COMPLETELY different part of the song to use in another. Hell, there's been times where I've taken a clip from a completely different SONG and used it in another place.
Bottom line is the singing and music were actually performed live, just those particular clips are different.
Was sill das, man hört ja kaum etwas, Shit ❗❗😊
This is awful.
Goat! 🐐
It just doesnt work. Looks like a bizzare animtion. I'd rather watch a softer real version than a fake sharp one that's all weird and glitchy. The AI does weird shit to peoples faces and kinda makes the whole video look like paper cutouts or a animated oil painting.
lol@ the trousers....
"Only time will tell if we stand the test of time"... terrible line
