Ozzy Thomas Gillday indeed. My first ever concert was summer 1980, San Juan Puerto Rico. Van Halen came with the Women and Children First your. I can still feel my ears ring and remember every song they played. The most ironic part is what my dad paid for it $12.50... Where have all the good times gone???....🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Dave supposedly wasn’t happy with the more keyboard heavy direction of Van Halen’s music...and his biggest solo hit ends up being a keyboard heavy song. It’s also worth noting that Steve Vai despised Just Like Paradise but as always he did a great job of crafting unique guitar parts that added a more rocking feel to the track.

When you go see someone who is old keep that in mind and just enjoy them in their golden years. Sure they may not be as good as they once were. Who cares? Just being in the same place as them watching them do their magic is well worth the admission price.
