Joe is doing exactly what he should be doing. He's playing what Eddie wrote, but he's playing it as Joe, not an "Eddie clone." Sammy and Mikey are giving fans one more chance (maybe even the last chance) to hear these tunes live. Don't like it? Fine, stay at home. For a those of us that loved that era of Van Halen, this is a great chance to enjoy this music live again.
Actually, this is a pretty good comment. I went to the Satriani/Vai show. Having only seen these two online, Joe absolutely blew me away playing live. I was expecting Steve to be the one. Having said that, you are right. People really need to see Joe in person.
One of the best live shows I’ve seen in a long time. Loved hearing this VH music live again. Agree 100% on Joe’s playing, honored the music but played in his own style. Would love to know if Wolfgang has checked out any of the clips of this tour.
I think Joe is really trying to come as close as possible out of respect....I think the shit is just that tough....Eddies tone is hard to replicate too
When a singer covers a song, they get props for “making it their own”. Why not for Joe? He honored Eddie’s style and made it fresh with his own vibe. I know Eddie loved it!
Mozart wrote music and orchestras are performing it daily. Eddie wrote music, but there is only one band that can do justice to it: this one. One guitarist who can touch the heart and soul of Eddie’s work : Satch. We are blessed to have Satch. Hats off to the master for keeping the spirit of 5150 alive.
5150 might be the most underrated guitar riff ever. The beginning riff is what I call completely "self-contained". What I mean is, Eddie tells the whole story with it, even before the rest of the band comes in. And of course, when they do it sounds great. These guys are killing it, but the absolute perfect live version is of course the " Live- Without a Net" one. Really wish I could've seen these guys live, though
I never saw Eddie play in life; But I guess even though Joe did his thing, as far as tone coming out of his amps; HE GOT IT, 🥺I went to the Phoenix concert, it was insanely heat, I would have liked to record this song, but thanks, you did it for me, I cried when I heard these first chords, the energy and feelings they generated leaves me speechless.
Sammy is 100% right on this-- this song is a masterpiece. Inspired from the mind of the Universe itself, channeled through Sammy and Eddie, and it came out as a masterpiece of music.
Great tribute to VH, Joe did a fantastic job. However I never doubted. 😁 I saw the 5150 tour in 86, still stand as one of the best concerts I've been to during my course of years, and I've been to a BUNCH, too many to count. Still have the tickets to several..., back when you could buy a REAL ticket, instead of a piece of paper, or a barcode.
I am just listening to this live show now after Alex said that they wouldn't do the band justice...Uh...I think he is bitter and out of touch. This was fucking awesome and filled with energy! I actually prefer the Hagar era. I think its because there was a certain maturity of sound with Sam, and the VH brothers got to do what they loved, which was play more keys and other things. The old Dave stuff just gets old. You can only listen to those classics so many times. Its sort of like listening to Dont Stop Believing at every damn wedding party. It just gets stale. Great songs, just gets old. With Sammy stuff, it still sounds fresh to this day. At least for me. Its too bad Alex couldn't have done drums, and wolf guitar, but seems like the hate is deep. Probably from Sam's book my guess, so this is sort of like Alex's revenge..Since he seems the most immature out of all of them.
His tone is crunchier than Eddie's. Agree with the comment above. Joe is one of the greats, but he clearly is concentrating his @$$ off to make sure to honor the song. Kudos guys! At least someone is out there playing ROCK! 🤘🤘
Their doing the same thing as Pantera Phil Anselmo Singer and Rex Brown on Bass the only two original members since the Abbot brothers are gone. Touring in a Pantera celebration tour And Sammy Hager singer and Michael Anthony on Bass the only two actual members touring on a 5150 tour not as Van Halen but in celebration. Love it!!
Nonsensical comment you spewing here kid since Joe is not a jump all over the place kinda guitarist.🤦🏾♂️ Want proof look at his performances with his own music. The same way he moves when playing his own music is the same way he is moving when playing Van Halen's Music. That is Joe's style, part of his identity on stage. Why do you want a quitarist to copy Eddies moves and use it on stage as if it's own? That would be some serious obsessive psychotic sh*t. That said as far as i am concern Satriani's performance on this song was awesome and just because a guitarist isn't running all over the place (which expends a lot of energy🤨)while playing guitar is not indicative that they are heavly concentrating(childish immature thought process as far as i concern). A lot of guitarist would tell you that they dont get all too crazy with movement on stage because they dont want to injure themselfs or band members or pull the cable out from their guitar if they are not using a wireless system. Additionally here is something to ponder: Eddies been playing his own songs for decades(massive amount of time to get comfortable). Joe as been playing them a couple of weeks! I wonder what your view would be if Eric Johnson was on stage playing these Van Halen songs.😉
This guy had nothing but mad respect for Eddie not Eddie but awesome we will all live in aww of Eddie 4 ever so will humans 4 100s of years till end of this earths time
*SAMMY & MICHAEL DONT NEED ALEX OR DAVE* *THE BAND SAMMY HAS IS BETTER THAN VH* *SAMMY WAS AND IS A SOLO ARTIST SO IF ALEX WASNT SO STUBBORN HE WOULD SEE SAMMY IS BRINGING BACK THE VIBE AND THAT ALEX SHOULD BE PLAYING WITH THEM AGAIN* *IT WOULD PUT ALEX BACK IN THE BIZZ*OR HE GOES OUT THE DRUMMER WHO STOPPED WHEN HIS BROTHER DIED* *THE RED ROCKER GOES ON* *CATER*
I love Satch, and this is a great job and performance. But. Sigh. Modes in Van Halen are the thing not to do. Touchy subject. I grew up listening to and playing both as influences. Eddie and Hendrix are my downright favorites.

@@firebirdoneseeing Joe live is the reason we went to this show. Worth every penny!

Yup. Saw the Tampa show. Incredible.
I think Joe is really trying to come as close as possible out of respect....I think the shit is just that tough....Eddies tone is hard to replicate too
Was at this show. Absolutely amazing.
I still can’t believe that Satriani is 68!!
ditto to both.... concert was as hot as the temp outside
And Sammy is 76! Its insane

Well said.
Never heard Simon Hosford I assume

Can’t believe Sammy is 76, this man must’ve found the fountain of youth!
TEQUILAAAAA. 😂🎉😂🎉✌️🍸🍶🍹🍶🍹🍹🍹
@@josegregorioalvarez1433 mixture of tequila and Cabo.
If Sammi didnt jump in Van Halen would have rotted on the tree. 5150 saved it
No one can ever replace EVH, but I'm really ENJOYING listening to Joe play his material! That tone is just killer💯🔥
Not to be lost is Jason's drumming. He does an excellent job of emulating Alex's sound. All around A+++ effort from everyone in this band.
You dam right he does got his sound closer than anyone I've ever heard on those drums
Out of all of the songs they played on this tour, this is one they absolutely NAILED.
Loved Joe's solo!
He switched back and forth between Ed's style and his own.
❤JOE❤M8KE❤JASON❤❤❤❤
I miss EVH. No one could touch him but this is awesome. Joe is honouring Eddie by doing this.
Props to Joe! He's playing Tribute and his own style! This sounds great! thanks for the upload for us broke people!
i cant believe i am this old. i had just graduated high school when they did this tour. one of the best shows i ever saw! RIP Eddie. Long live Sammy!
I will say my ears are still ringing from this show. Great show by both loverboy and Sammy,Michael,Jason,Joe fucking satriani loved it.
Why is Jason wearing a ski hat? It's the middle of summer. Must be warm/hot temperature wise in there.
Isn't Jason hot with a ski hat on?
My 2nd favourite guitar hero honouring my 1st favourite guitar hero with an incredible homage. Amazing work Joe!
Great show. I was there in Vegas.
The last time I saw Van Halen w/ Dave was at the same concert arena in 2012. Eddies last Vegas show.
Saw the show in Phoenix & they absolutely rocked it.. Love this on so many levels. Satch is one of few than can pull this off in such epic fashion..
Was there and can attest that this show kicked major ass.
My wife and I saw this in Vancouver, Washington. Sammy and friends just rocks.
I never saw Eddie play in life; But I guess even though Joe did his thing, as far as tone coming out of his amps; HE GOT IT, 🥺I went to the Phoenix concert, it was insanely heat, I would have liked to record this song, but thanks, you did it for me, I cried when I heard these first chords, the energy and feelings they generated leaves me speechless.

Love Jason's tribute to Dad on drumkit
Joe melted my face with his magic at the Nashville show a few nights ago
Satriani kills here ❤
Great recording from a GREAT SHOW! Thanks for sharing...

IN MEMORY OF EDDIE
You can tell Eddie and Alex are not there, even not looking at the video, but Joe covered it as best as it could be done.

I wonder what your view would be if Eric Johnson was on stage playing these Van Halen songs.😉
This guy had nothing but mad respect for Eddie not Eddie but awesome we will all live in aww of Eddie 4 ever so will humans 4 100s of years till end of this earths time
Killer…
Is only one for Me and I Know what that means 🙏
is that the bold Joe? 👍
Damn we got old
At first glance I thought the drum heads were a picture of Charles Manson then I realized it John Bonham.
Wait - Orlando Bloom plays keys and sings backup? Never knew… 😅
I'm miss Eddie and Joe is Mossart
I miss the Alex fills. This is dam good however.
*SAMMY & MICHAEL DONT NEED ALEX OR DAVE* *THE BAND SAMMY HAS IS BETTER THAN VH* *SAMMY WAS AND IS A SOLO ARTIST SO IF ALEX WASNT SO STUBBORN HE WOULD SEE SAMMY IS BRINGING BACK THE VIBE AND THAT ALEX SHOULD BE PLAYING WITH THEM AGAIN* *IT WOULD PUT ALEX BACK IN THE BIZZ*OR HE GOES OUT THE DRUMMER WHO STOPPED WHEN HIS BROTHER DIED* *THE RED ROCKER GOES ON* *CATER*

A gitáros nagy csalódás. Sammy sem bírja már szuflával.
Sammy and Michael look like pumpkin-heads hahaha C’mon guys who’s their hair stylist? 😂 💈
I love Satch, and this is a great job and performance. But. Sigh.
Modes in Van Halen are the thing not to do.
Touchy subject.
I grew up listening to and playing both as influences.
Eddie and Hendrix are my downright favorites.
Raven van Hagar
Gotta love the criticism Joe receives but no one ever mentions that Jason sounds nothing like Alex.
People hating are fucking dumb.
These guys are looking and sounding pretty good for their age. Watch a LoverBoy video for the opposite.
The Masons love their Saturn ....

The drums are too far down in the mix. The guitar is drowning our everything !
