It was awesome. I was 8th row on the floor. Flew from Texas to San Diego to go to it. The band's preformance was awesome. David Lee Roth did a little jumping. Wolfgang was excellent. David Lee Roth did though forget the words a few times. During the talky part of Panama, he did the part from Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love. Wolfgang walked up to him and whispered in his ear. David Lee Roth said, "I really F**ked that up didn't I"
Also the concert was very loud. It was awesome.
Anyone else going?

Saw them at MSG in NYC last month. RAWK!! Eddie is amazing. Diamond Dave is still his showboatin' frontman self, even if he can't do any many high kicks as he used to. Wolfie needs to hit the treadmill or something a little bit. It must be kind of embarrassing when there are two 50-year olds running around shirtless and your fat 16-year old ass is wearing a baggy sweatshirt.

I went to see the second show in the concert tour, It was pretty good. Eddie can still rock the house, Wolf gang just kind of stood in the corner and walked around a bit, Dave did his twirling mic stand thing a couple of times, he almost ran into Eddie twice. the most unsettling thing was during Un-Chained during the hey give me a break part Wolf Gang voiced it and it was weird hearing a kids voice. The best part was when they first came out and played their first song the crowd roared so loud that Eddie and Dave both hugged and teared up.

I was fortunate enough to catch their show at The Staples Center on 12/14/2007, and I have to say they have not lost much through the years of being estranged. Eddie was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G, and Dave was, well, he was Dave but with a little more humility toward his bandmates than what he used to exhibit back in the day.
I loved the show, and some people may rag on Dave for losing some of his vocal talents, but the man can still entertain like no other lead singer before him in Van Halen.
They have unbelieveable chemistry together, and Dave is the Blast Cap that makes the expoliveness possible.
