Had a blast! Satriani added some jamming riffs to the already hard rock chords of songs adding to the energy of the night. The crowd would not sit down so yet another concert I paid for a seat that wasn't used. Jason Bonham heavy pounding emphasized every beat of great songs and made them deeply felt in your soul. Sammy has not lost anything in his voice making it awesome to be the opener for this tour we got him at his best. I say "GET THIS PARTY STARTED!" Sammy says "YOU GOT THAT RIGHT" Mr. Jack Daniels Michael Anthony with his magic backing vocals and driving bass brought familiarity to all those songs we know and love. All Worlds included David Lee Roth Van Halen songs I've not heard Sammy do before making this night and tour special that you don't want to miss being there....Please put this on disc!!!
Hey Steve. You reminded me of the VH reunion tour with Sammy in 04. We went to the sound check and EVH handed me his guitar and asked me if I thought it was heavy. I believe it was made out of ivory and did feel heavy. Don't know how many people can say Eddie Van Halen handed them his guitar. Surreal to this day. I will never forget that experience (We actually snapped a polaroid of him handing me the guitar!) We'll be going to the show in LA next month. Hoping for lots of surprise guests since LA is VH's home town. Have a great time!
Have an awesome time tomorrow night everyone! If you haven't seen Sammy & the guys recently, you're in for a treat! They are better now than ever. This is for EVH. He will be there in spirit.
Good Morning Fellow Redheads,
It's 9 nights till Sammy's here!
If you're from South Florida, this is his show here - at this venue - since the Sam & Dave tour - '03? '04?
Back when Paula helped with being on stage - still one of the coolest experiences I've ever had!! It's going to be a sweat-fest, mid July in South Florida - unfortunately there's not many options for pre-show meet up. Anyone have suggestions?
Also going back to that show - they made multiple announcements about the show being filmed for a DVD - they even filmed a dress rehearsal to splice in - anyone remember that or get a copy of the DVD?
