Ain't Talkin' Bout Love (A POWERFUL VERSION IN MY OPINION)

Sammy and Eddie joking good video for Van Halen fans I Hope You Enjoy It

[@rappy90]

Even though Eddie is probably wrecked out of his mind, hes still 5000x better at guitar than I'll ever be XD

[@kaydentrujillo5153]

Holy crap, Michael's voice at the beginning of the song! Still has that range!

[@stingray1964]

After reading Sammy's book, he said nights when Ed had his hair up like a Samurai meant he was super fucked up and didn't know what he was gonna do....talk about a great talent crumbling....

[@RONDOC68]

Wow.....Eddie played great drunk.

[@MrVanhalen5]

At this point EVH had hit rock bottom, he was so messed up

[@paddytguitar]

Sad

[@mikepastor.k6233]

RIP the worst of it was his chain smoking. I mean what ultimately doomed him.

[@wrenchhead4378]

Yea he didn’t look good...

[@Linteria]

drunk as shit. That was some sauced laughing in the beginning, and sauced guitar playing throughout, unfortunately.

[@jhgillmd]

@@mikepastor.k6233actually for type of cancer he had, hard alcohol and smoking are each independent risk factors. If you do both, the risk factors are more than multiplicative. RIP sad soul.

[@RandyRhoadsx13]

Micheal was the man, that high note he hit in the begning of the song is great =]

[@rockandroll63]

Do you think Eddie may have done a smidgeon of coke this night?

[@VioletSerenade]

replying 10 years later to let you know this made me laugh my ass off for some reason

[@physicalgrafitti4684]

[@fattirevsbud]

It's Rock n Roll Kids!!!! it's great to rock out wasted when you;re at that level

[@TKDCats312]

He's great now! I saw him live in Cincinatti, he was flawless and clean. He looked the best he's looked in years.

[@Linteria]

RIP...

[@cmikesmith664]

God bless Sammy Hagar!

[@janburgers5832]

In this vid Eddie reminds me of Herman Brood, great shots of alex behind drums, powerful indeed

[@bill38804]

Seen them with Diamond Dave then seen them twice with The Red Rocker and both done what they where there to do. SING enjoyed all 3 shows and have respect for both of them in there own way.

[@DADSGETNDOWN]

Sad to see Eddie look like that. The only point which he was really gone.

[@MyEnemy]

Great version, Sammy had the perfect balance of power and grace with his voice.

[@youngwun446]

this type of music maybe 25 years in the past but that riff is timeless

[@Chris5150]

Hell yeah, thanks for sayin' it! They're both great, everyone needs to get over it

[@adolfoviguerias9717]

RIP Ed, we miss ya man...

[@bluesboy25000]

@tvr2120 That tour was a disaster. I saw the Reunion with Dave. AMAZING

[@eransmoler]

Fantastic

[@diegorios1.9.7.9]

[@skosters]

[@mrhorn2001]

[@user-uy6vz2ye5g]

Eddie amazing )))))

[@SimonB488]

@OPTIMISPOOH Hmm he has the timing, he messed up the solo a little bit but for everything else it's fucking great man.

[@Linteria]

Michael Anthony's falsetto was better than anything Roth, Sammy or Gary could do combined.

[@swordofgod2835]

Michael Anthony is really great

[@airborne5150]

@Soxpert Right you are!

[@user-uy6vz2ye5g]

Samurai))))

[@artgonewrong]

Hagar....no. Roth....yes.

[@NaserMestarihi]

Hahahaha I don't care what people think, I love Eddie and I think this is fucking hilarious, I would have loved to watch this show. I'm glad he's sober now though and getting his health in shape.

[@MyKittyPercy]

I clicked and then saw it’s a 2004 show 😒 Tricked!

[@socker0]

It's better when David sings it!!!!

[@metalhead2481]

drunk! hahahah

[@john123wayne]

diamond dave put van halen on the map sammy hagar stepped in and did a helluva job peace to both versions of van halen.

best line-up

[@kenubita]

UHH!

[@glasscity65]

2 much taquila

[@sohogangsta]

Eddie looks geeked out and looks horrible....like someone strung out on meth. Sammy's book is a great read and he talks about this time in VH. Sammy never said that Eddie was doing meth, but Eddie's behavior at that time was irratic and combative to the point where they couldn't be around each other until showtime. It looks like Eddie has cleaned up and I'm glad for him.

[@roxxanedtroyt1744]

hes drunk i think but he looks 100% horrible

[@mikepastor.k6233]

Drinking and chain smoking was EVH's main vices. Unfortunately, the latter did him in far too early in life.

[@wrenchhead4378]

Yea he doesn’t look good

[@slimmmshaney5695]

@@mikepastor.k6233 he also has talked about doing a lot of coke during his long hours practicing. He definitely had his fair share of struggles, but he himself said they aided him in trying the absolutely crazy sounds he made over his career. In the end we all have vices and Eddie still managed to do what he did.

[@mikepastor.k6233]

@@slimmmshaney5695 I'm sure he did some coke. Maybe a lot. But never was addicted and used like Eddie used alcohol and cigs. Just saying he wasn't a meth head crack head or coke head. In a way I wish Eddie was and got clean instead of the long slow doomed road cigarettes will kill you by.

[@Surwin]

Not only did the band fire one of the very best "front men" in ROCK history....... they also lost their MARBLES, (sanity) too!!!

[@iceyplayz3388]

If u mean Sammy as their best front man then you’re on crack. (Edit) If u mean David Lee Roth as their best front man, they still have him RN so either way you’re on crack.

[@mikepastor.k6233]

@@iceyplayz3388 Sammy was OK. Diamond Dave was the best ever(Ok, tied with Freddie Mercury) but that's early DLR. He lost his voice years ago and has been a shadow of himself since his solo days..

[@joelombrdo]

@@mikepastor.k6233 Roth sucked as a singer. I saw them in 1976 at the Pasadena Civic even before they were signed. Edward was an incredible guitarist but while Roth was a great front man he sucked as a singer. Mark Anthony, the bassist, sang the high notes.

[@jhgillmd]

@@joelombrdoMichael. Mark was married to J Lo 😂😂

[@joerock040]

Eddy was total loss of controll !!!!!!!!! Kick ass

[@RubyLovesTomDonnelly]

I will always miss sammy and Micheal Anthony with vh~~~

[@rgs4x]

Just read Sammy's book . There is a chapter called Samurai hair. Eddie was so bombed during this tour and made so many mistakes it was embarrassing.

[@hornmoviereviews8739]

God!!! Eddie was fuckerd!!!

[@Instigator917]

what could have been

[@t3hPoundcake]

I wish Ed never fucked up his playing with all the drugs and alcohol. I miss when they were good together, him and Sammy were a dream team. Even today Ed can't play as good as he could in the 80's and 90's.

[@movement2contact]

is it a junkie version...?

[@TimeTraveler66]

Charlie Sheen on guitar !!

[@ferbueno2]

2004 tour

[@KillerBode]

rastaa version!

[@tvr2120]

Diamond Dave is counting more money that you'll ever see in your whole life, last "Reunion" Tour sold out and it was very succesful,Sammy is and will always be a troll and replacement. Remember,Diamonds shine forever and Diamond Dave is a Living Legend !!!

[@Jackknuckleson]

if it ain't Diamond Dave it ain't Van Halen!

[@fugitive1201]

that's because he got his teeth and hair redone and sobered up (so they say)

[@SlyTrick9]

@Quazzga Van Halen, up until Jump, recorded all their songs in the story exactly liked they played them live. There are a ton of live tracks that sound great but I think in many others they overplay it and for crying out loud, they're obviously stoned 99% of the time.

[@vorlon32]

@tvr2120 agreed!

[@TheRockerchef]

Anybody know what year this was?

[@Growl60]

He started playing shitty when he started holding his pick different

[@andreagape9777]

David Lee Roth ✌

[@cris931609]

Eddie's got the power man If he wanted he could have played well but he decided to fuck up this tour and the possibility of sammy getting back in the band, along with mikey

[@airborne5150]

@Soxpert Edward wrote it! No one will ever match the bomb he dropped from another world!

[@RONDOC68]

Yes,sarcasm.

[@Killbride]

It's not really the same without Roth, but the music is still great.

[@canadaguy2112ca]

Montrose is hot. Van Hager is hit or miss depending on what you feel at the time. His solo stuff is fun

[@t3hPoundcake]

@bluesfashion High/Wasted. He was a huge fuckup back then, glad to see he can kinda play again. Psyched for the '11 tour.

[@AFMike0129]

Wow...wow....wow....Eddie is freakin rough looking in this video. Look at some interviews of him and Sammy around '95 and '96. He looked cool and his voice was still in good shape. Now he looks like a homeless guy I should be throwing money too
