@@rodrich1644 guys Rogers played so infrequently, it is easy to come out once a decade for a bunch of shows. Same with Deyoung, Jagger, and Macdonald, they all sound great mostly because they do not tour that often. Sammy has been steady over the years playing a bunch of shows a year (Solo, Chicken Foot, the Circle) to keep his team and org paid. Plus his AXS show etc. I agree Sammy for 77 sounded great, might not have that scream anymore like in 95, and might need Mickey to hit the highest notes, but it was still Sammy and it was great to hear him again.

@@drcuda71y’all need to calm down. For dudes in their 70s, Sammy and Mike sound great, much better than Dave currently sounds. Obviously they aren’t going to sound like prime Van Halen (just like axl rose sounds nothing like prime GnR anymore). And Sammy said it’s up to Michael as to what and how many pre-Hagar Van valen songs they play. Sammy explicitly said this is a Sammy Hagar show, not a Van Halen show/tour. So if you’re not happy with the show then you personally have a VH problem.

Working for (separately) the Azoff brothers ( Ron Azoff. RIP ) I was was asked to perform many tasks and as a reward I had access to the LA music scene which consistently included the Van Halen final rehearsal every year mostly at Zoetrope. David was a cool guy,Michael was the absolute best,Eddie was so so and don’t even start with Alex ( doesn’t like people, I don’t blame him) But every time you meet Sammy he’s humble but very also very Sammy. Michael you’re always great he never forgets were he came from.
