      If we had UA-cam back in the 70's we wouldn't have needed songs explaining that it's all a Grand Illusion... it's easy for famous people to show that they are really real people now.

    Dennis, thank you for this video. I needed some uplifting. I worked as a concert runner and promoter rep in college in Buffalo . Now I’m 55 , my kid graduated from college and Ed Van Halen is gone. I worked a few shows on 5150 I was the personal slave for their tour manager, the infamous Bob Daitz.( he’s been around you may know of him)There is a Buffalo, NY connection to VH but I won’t get into it. I have met you many times , sir. I even remember your wife, Suzanne the Great, carrying baby Matthew. Please, please stay well🇺🇸❤️

    You are the best! Love you love your music. Take care and stay safe.

    I’m playing your music in my grade 8 class this term. I want my class to hear your amazing voice. I make them listen to Elvis, Frank and now you. I’m retiring in June after 30 years of teaching. I’m not rich, but I would pay you as much as I can afford to have you sing don’t let it end to my class on my last day. Dreams do come true.

    Most everyone has a band that just connects more than others. Styx has been that for me. I'm the one who hums "Pieces of 8" while doing chores and sings " nothing ever goes as planned" in the shower. Even my coffee table is a Fender Rhodes touring case that belonged to Styx at one time. Thanks for all the great music and for being that soundtrack in my life.

I didn't get the notifications because UA-cam decided to change the setting to Personalized (which means they tell me NOTHING) So i fixed it back to ALL and now I'll know. Hello to Suzanne - love seeing her at your shows too. DDY - forever!
