Extreme - “Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love” (Van Halen cover). Sept 25th, 2024 Tonawanda - Front Row

Shot from the front row.

[@mikematthews5890]

Not only is Pat sounding great on the vocals; but that fact that he's playing chords behind the guitar solo parts just proves that he's The Man! Have loved this band since the 80's/90's and still do!

Derek Zoolander killing it on the vocals!

You can never go wrong paying homage to mighty Edward Van Halen. Thank you both for all your music and all your sacrifice

[@shellybean9]

Love Extreme and Nuno is great with the Eddie riffs. Gary has always been a great frontman, that guy is one limber guy for his age.Thanks for the upload.

[@tboneoutdoors688]

When guys keep themselves in shape they can perform at the top level for years. I first saw Extreme at a little club in Providence RI in the mid 80’s before they had a record deal and they still have the same energy!

[@jerrytoro4739]

@@tboneoutdoors688 Nuno believes that he's one of the best guitar players but you know what Marty Friedman is a better guitar player dimebag Darrell is a better guitar player yngwie malmsteen is a better guitar player Steve Vai is a more technical player as well as Joe satriani Nuno is a great guitar player but I believe that he's an insecure guitar player because he couldn't give it up for people that are better

[@tylerthescreamofficial98]

@@jerrytoro4739 Nuno imo has that Eddie energy but with his own twist to it. Definitely in my top 10 of favorite guitarists.

[@zoltan2k6]

@@jerrytoro4739 ok, so where from this video do you interpret nuno "believing" he's the best guitar player or not respecting contemporary guitarists that may exceed him? last i checked, he shared a stage with yngwie in multiple guitar-hero type tours. also nuno's style doesn't really line up with the other 2 players you mentioned b/c he's not known for thrash metal theatrics like marty & dime. extreme in their heydey, fell squarely in the helm of glam rock & hard blues, not metal. anyone who seen one of their recent comback concerts can tell you, theyre not reinventing the wheel. that said, i would agree nuno is closer to vai and satch. but im not sure how you can quantify theyre more technical than him, i'm quite sure anything those guys can do he can with ease. as an example, listen to the tapping gallop jingle nuno does in 0:15-0:18: that's a cool a hell trick unique to nuno. none of those guys nor his modern day guitarist peers im aware of employ that in their playing.

That opening riff is one my all time favorites. Such a great song.

[@davemis40]

Saw them live a few months back and they were brilliant.. Nuno is incredible

[@woodzie06]

As a VH fan, I appreciate that Nuno did Ed's solo, when Steve Vai was with the DLR band, he did his own solo, and I always loved Ed's solo in this song.

[@andybroer651]

Tonawanda was my place of birth... rock it!!

[@badrocknroller]

Fantastic! Nuno is probably the best rock n roll guitarist alive today., IMHO I wasn't a fan of Extreme back in the day, but I also didn't dislike them. Just wasn't my thing. But to see Nuno over the last decade, when everything else is autotune, fake, over saturated, over produced, over pedaled, over everything. Man, this guy has just got chops and can play, play, play. I love it and have much respect for his talent and dedication to his craft. Thank you Nuno!!

[@andybroer651]

totally agree!

[@JismIsm-en4kz]

Brian May s the best rock guitarist alive today; And Btw: These guys blow > BIG TIME

[@kellyguillory3403]

Have to agree. Bought the first or second Extreme album (maybe both)and couldn't get into it so I sold them. But after hearing tracks from their last album I was blown away. What I was hoping and expecting to hear 30 years ago.

[@aaronlewis2150]

I guess not a whole lot of people in here are either don't remember or don't know that Gary Cherone was actually the lead singer for Van Halen for a minute

[@ChrisHariis]

Nuno is and was the Edward guy. He is and was the most Van Halen guy 30 years ago. Song writing, tone, and touch.

[@frankb1686]

Great video,great job on the filming.thanks

[@taheelfan1]

sounds really good, best cover Van Halen I have heard

[@Mindboggle100]

Uncanny, doesn't seem like Eddie is far fron Nuno in Spirit!

[@aaronlewis2150]

What's actually not a cover considering that the singer Gary was in Van Halen for a time as their frontman.so it's basically then just doing a song

[@TruthNBible]

Such a great tribute…. the love is overwhelmingly obvious.

My two first CDs were Van Halen Live and Extreme's III Sides... This is an awesome mix of both worlds. Nuno's the best for a Van Halen tribute.

[@comment.highlighted]

@@aaronlewis2150 Yep 😏

[@VH-Fan-007]

Gary was probably the only one that was able to do DLR and Hagar VH tunes and make them sound great. If VH111 wasn’t such a terrible album (it’s not all bad), he would have lasted. Although, he acted kind of like a clown (not in a good way like DLR) on stage when touring, so maybe he wouldn’t have.

[@comment.highlighted]

@@VH-Fan-007 I agree that Gary is a great singer and would do both Dave and Sammy justice Live. Yeah, unfortunately their album bombed 😕🤷‍♂️

The first time I heard Gary sing this song with VH it made me miss DLR. This time it sounds ten times better than when DLR last sang it.

This is a way better cover version than Sammy Hagar's trying to butcher it up! This guy rocks it on the Guitar.

[@atyt11]

Nuno is one of my top influences and his playing is other worldly........but no surprise, its freak'in crazy amazing how IMPOSSIBLE it is to cover EVH. Even Nuno only sounds like Nuno covering Eddie. EVH was the rock guitar GOAT.
