Injured a week before the concert just outside the Bowl, I was very fortunate to be alive. hats off to the folks at the Bowl, upgrading my seats to handicapped access so my family and I could watch God play! Van Halen Forever!
KWS was great as usual. I'm a bigger KWS fan than VH but VH brought out all the hits. Dave put on a great show and his singing was great. Wolfies bass and background vocals were spot on too. I'm glad I got to see the final show of the tour!
Exceeded my expectations. They sounded great considering this was the last night of the tour. Eddie was Eddie and Dave was classic Diamond Dave. Fun to watch.
it was everything and more it was the greatest show ever I didn't want it to end
The show was awesome! David and Eddie played as well together as they have ever had. The songs sounded.great and the Hollywood Bowl is the perfect setting for any concert.
I finally had a chance to see them for the first time at their last concert of their tour. Van Halen did not dissapoint. Eddie Van Halen' guitar god status is well deserved. His solo was the highlight of the entire concert. The drummer and bassist did a good job to accompany Eddie. David Lee Roth's voice range had a hard time keeping up with the rest (he was way off on Jump). Nevertheless, his enthusiam was genuine and contagious. He is still has the presence and humor to command your attention. Together, they put a show that will stay with me the rest of my life. Thank you for being able to musically transport me back to my younger days.
It was great performance! There is no other band like Van Halen! Hope they hit the stage again in the near future!
The show and the venue were both AMAZING! Can't wait to go back!!! Epic band and epic venue!!! Kenny Wayne Shepard was awesome, too!
OMG did David Lee Roth suck. It almost seemed like he just sung random notes instead of the actual song melodies. So bad at times that the good backup vocals clashed hideously with whatever he was doing. Often he just skipped notes or verses, there was just blank holes. And his theatrics . . . it was like he was channeling Liberace, not fronting one of the best rock bands of a generation. Between every song DLR changed into a new vest, hat, scarf, etc., all flashy colors and sequins. HEY EDDIE, can't you import someone from the Phillipines? Don't Stop Believin !! On the otherhand the rest of the band was tight, sharp and sounded great. Alex knocked it out of the park with his solo. And Eddie, WOW, at the top of his game. If you haven't seen Eddie play before that alone was worth the price of admission. My date had never seen VH before, and Eddie was so awesome, that was great. But I was just so so embarassed by DLR. I've never been embarassed at a concert before.
This was their last tour together, and the last show. Roth rocked with his usual energy and eddie is still the best guitar player in history. We definately got the "A" version! Awesome, classic legends who still enjoy what they do and it shows!
This concert is one of the final leg of this highly inspired Van Halen tour. I've also been to the San Bernardino gig and the same good vibes are present here. From beginning to end, this tour proves the band should always play live!
Amazing show and set list from Van Halen featuring David Lee Roth. For their age, these guys pumped out some killer classics from the Roth days. Would've been nice to have all the original band members but Eddie's son Wolfgang filled the gap nicely for Michael Anthony. Of course Eddie performed a nice solo leading into Eruption/You Really Got Me Now. This was the last show on the tour at The Hollywood Bowl so a great fit for me to close out the tour. Drove all the way from AZ to see The Scorpions at The Forum the night before and this show. I took my 14 & 19 year old daughters and they were amazed. They like all the old school metal and rock I grew up with so this was cool. Let's face it, these bands aren't gonna be around very long. So do yourself a favor and check these guys out as well as any other rock band from the 80s....you won't regret it! Rock On and Metal Rules! \m/
Eddie and Dave were better than ever. Eddie's Guitar was phenomenal, Wolfgang definitely groomed well by Dad, all backed by the best drummer ever.
Over 60, and Van Halen still has it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These Gents did not disapoint, Rocked the Night Away!
Van Halen songs stand on their own, but there comes a time when a singer just can't hit those high notes or carry a tune. David Lee has come to that period of time. Also, his "story time with David" was hokey. The music and guitar play was amazing. The drumming was average. I saw Rush in August, and Rush blew Van Halen out of the water..
3rd time I have seen Van Halen, 1st time with David Lee Roth (DLR). For my whole life it has been hard to wrap my head around how talented and completely awesome the Van Halen family is. 1st time seeing Wolfgang with the band. He and his dad are SO ON POINT. Eddie must be so proud and the way they harmonize makes me imagine how they spent time together when he was a kid. It warms my heart. They are arguably the most talented family in the business. God bless the Van Halen family. The ONLY reason that they did not get a SOLID 5 stars....DLR is not a great singer. He was more worried about changing shirts, hats and scarfs (felt like I was at a Cher concert) than actually singing in key. I waited my whole life to see him back with Van Halen (second only to seeing Steve Perry back with Journey)...and this is what I get??!!? In the slim chance that you are reading this Eddie......get Sammy Hagar back in the band ASAP. NO ONE ELSE...It has to be Sammy.
Great show !!! Eddie was amazing, David Lee Roth entertaining as usual! It was a Van Halen sing along at the Bowl !
Kenny Wayne Sheppard & Band along with Eddie, Alex, Wolfgang Van Halen are true masters at their crafts! Roth was embarrassing ... when he was able to keep up with the band we saw some epic VH moments ... Roth had some funny moments & did a great job on "Ice--Cream Man" solo part. @-> Kenny Wayne Sheppard & Band ... Eddie, Alex & Wolfgang Van Halen thank you for a truly amazing show!
What a fantastic show. The three Van Halens were flawless as always, and Dave was in outstanding form, voice-wise and in swagger, schtick, and entertainment. An experience I--and my daughters--will never forget. So much better live than watching youtube clips -- please release official video! Awesome setlist, great lightshow. Thanks Eddie, Dave, Al, and Wolfgang. More music please!!!
