Well done guys. Sounded great. Ty for posting.i packed a mean tight bowl I mean a big freaking bowl of m&ms ( without the brown ones for some reason.lol) while the love of my life rolled a big one of course and then yall took us down memory . we loved it !!

[@craigpajek8698]

This dude does David Lee Roth better than David Lee Roth,

[@frufru0071]

You're not kidding. David can’t even do this anymore...hit such a variety of notes, and let out those wild, early "Running With The Devil" screams. These guys do a great job.

[@jerrybishop2115]

No doubt 💯

[@bassisdaplace]

Heck, this band is a lot tighter & cohesive than actual VH! Yes, I know the original VH has much more wattage & feedback they have to deal with in larger venues, but other than EVH himself, these guys are in some ways better!

[@fredderf551]

"This dude does David Lee Roth better than David Lee Roth,' Not even close. "Heck, this band is a lot tighter & cohesive than actual VH!" Not even close.

[@kashtonpeter6462]

Dunno if you guys gives a shit but if you're stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my gf lately :)

[@poolleakacademy5573]

I was going to laugh AT these guys but they completely earned my respect- rock on Fan Halen!

[@Joe-mz6dc]

Sounds damn good.

[@matthewanderson1285]

This singer is freakin incredible! As a real vh fan, i can see and hear this guy studied roth like he was auditioning for a role in a play or movie that he was born to play. Everything he sings and even says is identical to the tone of dlr and what he has done- and even what he would do- this guy knows roths character so well he can anticipate how roth would say or sing stuff- its so spot on its scary!

[@mfreeland2012]

And actually sings way better than Roth now....

[@Jessamer]

Like an Actor playing a part, well researched and rehearsed? Because he is. But not JUST a paid gig, you have to be into it.

[@deppurple700]

Pretty cool if you ask me he sounds just like Dave if you close your eyes

[@tylerthompson1842]

He's the best part of the band. The guitar and bass player are good, but their harmonies need work. I'd find a new drummer if I were them. He doesn't have the groove Alex had, I feel a separation with him and the band.. no pocket. Alex and Michael had possibly the tightest pocket in Rock.

[@drone6337]

This guy nails David Lee, the mannerisms are perfect, what a performer

[@mtp04987]

The bass player has the look, the playing and the voice. He’s awesome!!!!!!!!

[@FarmersAreDummies]

I could swear it IS Anthony.

[@warptek]

Sounds really good. The guy doing DLR sounds better than the real Dave does nowadays.

[@lloydsarnowski6986]

Nope sorry , My vote to STILL goes to the VH Trib "The Atomic Punks" (Hollywood, Ca. )with Ralph Saenz on DLR vocals / antics Now he has Dave's sound/schtick down COLD. and....the backing vocals are thin, brittle & weak sounding. I did a VH Trib for 4 years as EVH while singing Michael Anthony's Backups (TRY THAT ) then come talk to me.

[@lloydsarnowski6986]

Guitarist believe it or not is making a ton of mistakes in my humble opinion.

[@ericsherman3378]

I was lucky enough to catch VH in 2004 with Hagar and saw VH again in 2012 with DLR. 2012 was a lackluster to say the least. I like VH early stuff with DLR but to see him fronting VH live a I wasn’t impressed what so ever

[@jeramiahjohnson9635]

warptek. I have to agree.

[@thechannel4171]

Best multi octave scream I've heard other than young Dave

[@ellensparky]

As a van halen fan if I get drunk enough it's like the band's back together again.good job

[@superkunk2]

Hey Eddy, here's your new singer. At least this guy sings.

[@motothumper5598]

Guitarist looks like Michael Angelo Batio had a love child with Satchel from Steel Panther.

[@Pstaines439]

exactly!!!!!

[@AussieOutlaw]

I thought it was him

[@eerokkitube]

Yeah I thought he was the guitarist from Steel Panther. He should be on a S.P tribute band..

[@CanadianRandom]

Lol yes!

[@insideman6680]

Looks like Dave n sounds like 80s Dave ;)

[@shaunclifton5281]

This guy's Dave screams are 100% dead on. He did some Serious studying of young Diamond Dave.

[@goop3213]

he probably has emphysema like Dave...that's why he has that DLR skreech ....nailed it! !

[@YTOnceAgain]

No. Another vote for 'not even close'. It works well enough and the rest of the singing is very, very, very close, but the screams aren't. However, what actually bothers me more is the un-groovy guitar player. A lot of the time he's so not in the pocket, it makes me cringe... not to mention that he's completely off in the Panama intro. Way to start a show. That said, I'd rather go see these guys for a couple of than the real thing for a little fortune... if the mix gets better.

[@frufru0071]

@@YTOnceAgain It’s the only thing that I don’t like about this. I thought I’d come across the wrong way, or express myself incorrectly, so I’m glad that you said something, and how you have written it. Most eloquently. He’s NOT ON as far as his timing is concerned and there’s just something...off- playing ahead of the beat? Not that I could do any better! I’m surprised by how great the singer is. Love the drums at the beginning of "Hot For Teacher"...🤣meh🤷🏻‍♂️

[@davefraley8875]

Dude sounds just like DLR in his prime.. the screams are dead on... great job!!!

Closest to the real thing I've ever heard. Wow.

[@Mark-OutWest]

And he remembers the words too.

[@guitarcollector1291]

Yeah, the voice on the records. Best I have heard from a tribute band.

[@matthewanderson1285]

Absolutely. Best dlr from any vh cover band ever!

[@havitcold]

Ok, this Dave is phenomenal, the band is good the guitarist is really good also, even the bass player looks like Mikey... what a trip!

[@rg1617]

WOW - seeing this 6 years later. The guitar player is amazing. Very, very close to Eddie - note per note. Even has his even-odd/unique spacing between the notes down. They look like they're having so much fun! It looks like the band still plays in California as of the time of this posting. Wondering if they ever tour outside of California?

[@Ezekiel336]

This is awesome... Dave had a unique voice especially those screams and this dude nailed it lol... impressed.... love Ozzy hanging out in the intro also lol

[@simontempler3239]

This is how bad the music industry has become.....Where people have to imitate bands from the 70s and 80s cause there is no good (new) original bands making music these days..Sign of the times I guess..

[@mikeadams2351]

the Aristocrats man..three of the best musicians on EARTH...no songs..just great not easy to play MUSIC...

[@lipeseven1]

Actually, you're wrong. There is A LOT of new original bands making GREAT music, the thing is... People don't care. Music has change (and I HATE IT), all people like today is pop (not real pop like MJ, etc, but Justin Bieber and that stupid song produced in computers), rap (That Minaj girl... stupid) hip hop... That's it. Rock is dead. Good music is gone.

[@SirManfly]

so true @simon templer !

[@thomasclare5211]

so true

[@oneofthemodels]

Couldn't agree with you more there buddy I think the music industry is gone so far downhill there may need not be any recovering absolutely pathetic what they're putting up now and calling music where have all the bands gone like the Beatles and journey you know great Comet there

[@raydardis5389]

When the singer introduced the bass player as Michael Anthony, I really thought Michael was sitting in with these guys. Dude nails his lines and backing vocals. Great job guys! Best tribute band Ive ever seen.

Ha "Mike Anthony" even has the Jack Daniels bass. These cats are cool!

[@marcf8541]

Dave never sounded this good live, saw him in the 80's he sounded awful. This guy sounds alot closer to what you would expect when you went to a live VH concert. Roth was so bad it was shocking. I think this guy was on the albums and the real Dave is Milli from vanilli

[@seaturtledog]

I agree that Dave could be bad. I saw them in their prime maybe 1981 and they did not put on a good show.

[@TheAgentAssassin]

No there is a concert on YT somewhere on here , Dave sounds really good live. From 81 I think

[@tacobell5150]

Have to disagree on that one dude, this guy sounds EXACTLY like Dave did in the mid to late 70's, early 80's there are tons of live recordings out there that this guy has copied and mastered to a t, you should check them out, it's actually incredible that he can sound EXACTLY as crappy as Dave always had, but he ain't better, just the same as the VH era this band is paying tribute to.

[@luvbasses5487]

Marc, Dave DID sound this good live, particularly on that first 1978 world tour. Look up some of those shows here on YT. They're freakin' KILLER. Like a shark that gets excited at the smell of blood, they were out for blood on that first tour and they ALL played incredibly well in 1978. but I have to agree with you some...as the years past and by '84 he started to sound "sung-out" a little...

[@matrixcmitech]

The real DLR was constantly running across a huge stage doing the splits and jumping his ass off every five seconds while this guy is just strutting around a 10 foot section .. Obviously the fake DLR is going to sound better live

[@Dennis-wi6nn]

The VH brothers should get this singers number. He blows DLR off the stage.

[@copasneaker]

I love how people who probably never even touched a guitar slam this Eddie guy in the band. Yeah, he ain't EVH, and Lance Turner is better, but hell....dude is super, super good. Effin judgy bastards, always gotta piss on something nice.

[@robtech341]

It's really terrific top to bottom. The Look and sound, backup vocals, drums bass, all of it. And watching the Guitarist says all you need to know why EVH was the greatest. Because it's always fun to play. It always puts a smile on the face of a guitarist when you finally get the feel and tone. It's like guitar crack. Other great players are work to replicate, Playing Eddie's stuff is like eating a bunch of Ice cream to find out what the best flavor is! All of 'em!

[@mjcs6399]

It's not DLR's scream, but it's somehow better in some ways. Truly taken aback by this band. Wow

[@louisborselio8608]

If I was at one of those festivals where you couldn't get anywhere near the stage and this band was playing I'd swear it was really Van Halen. This is my first time seeing a VH tribute band. Now I gotta look for some more to really see if these guys are the best. So far they seem like they're gonna be tough to beat or even match.

I can't agree more about the timing. The thing that gives VH their sound is Eddie and Alex's complete locked in groove. Eddie may be the most rhythmic player I have ever heard honestly. One of the main reasons I took up drums and guitar at a young age. I wanted to be both of them :)

Seen VH twice in 1984 and this singer altough very talented, is not better then Diamond Dave from 20 years ago. He would be a valuable asset to Van Halen if... #1 They hired him. #2 The singer stopped russing the lyrics. #3 the guitarist is skipping alot of the notes and adding his own. when he does that it doesn't sound like Van Halen.... Moreover, It's not a race, slow it down a tad and stop cutting corners and you guys would be on point!

IMO, Nerd Halen has a tighter, more accurate Van Halen sound, especially the lead guitar "Eddie Nerd Halen." To me Atomic Punks are playing dress-up but don't have the music down as tight as the Nerds.

[@Blimpus]

Yup, love the nerd halen dudes

[@perryaragon]

Bass player is playing really good. The whole band is having a great performance. The Singer is really kicking ass!

[@batlevi2247]

Man this band is hot for teacher, there killing at the guitars, drums, and bass including background vocals! Heck the singer is rocking on

[@FirebrandVOCALS]

Actually not bad at all 😎👊

In unrelated news: The real VAN HALEN just found a perfect replacement for creepy Dr. Smith, I mean DLR.

Rest In Peace Eddie Van Halen....This is one of the best Tribute to Van Halen # 1...

[@rayerscarpensael2300]

geez this band sound as good as the original in its prime, awesome dudes!

[@Mark-jd2dv]

If Dave leaves VH, they should nab the singer from this tribute!

[@09terrafirma]

Maybe just invite him to leave and get this guy. It's not like the VH brothers are above doing that. Great tribute band.

[@bertlee3470]

They sound more cohesive than VH. Nice to hear a live VH song where all the lyrics were actually sung.
