Sammy Hagar and Joe Satriani - Ain't Talking Bout Love Best of Both Worlds Tour LIVE 7/13/24

[@b3853r]

I knew Sammy is 77, but…Damn, Michael Anthony is 70! How did I get so old 😢 He was such an underrated member of VH. Sammy has always treated him like he deserves. Big love to this entire band & rock on 🤘🏼

[@the9011]

Mike still sounds fantastic ... so many don't realize how absolutely crucial his voice was to VH sound.

[@markedward4290]

Joes interpretations make this show unexpectedly sparkle with respectful, yet totally authentic wizardry.

How 'bout that, Mikey sings as good as Roth.

[@TBP-st3bn]

Actually...he's better than Roth. Roth didn't sing so much as he talked his way through songs.

[@vhg2599]

Michael gave me goose bumps. What did I just see? 70 is the new 40?

[@lethalburst]

The people complaining about Joe's tone are clueless. Tone is not just the gear, it's also the player. Nuno Bettencourt once played Eddie Van Halen's rig + guitar, and was surprised he didn't sound like Eddie. He sounded like Nuno.

[@neechee5150]

Steve Lukather said the same thing about when he played EVH's rig

[@robertc7093]

Normally, almost every guitarist have his own tone,just few tried to copy...but if you know forr example 3G Sat, Vai and Malmsteen or Petrucci will see there difference to tone between them.

[@delaskae9769]

That’s him being modest. Nuno pulls off Eddie 10 times better than Satriani.

Those going back and forth in these comments about whether Satch was the best choice for this band are forgetting one thing and maybe the most important. It's not always about guitar technique. It can also be, and many times is, about personalities and how they mesh.

@@bayesian2007You don’t know much about Joe Satriani. I’ve been following Joe since 1989 and know his catalogue front to back. It’s light years ahead of Van Halen in complexity. EVH has a few difficult riffs and an untouchable groove. Joe is a master musician using complex songwriting structures and techniques throughout his entire career.

[@bayesian2007]

@@chrisluckhardt I saw him in at the Tower Theatre in Philadelphia for Flying in a Blue Dream tour. Not of this Earth is a fine album. Surfing with the Alien is my favorite of his. I bet I know more about him and music theory than you do. I went to Van Halen in 1984 at the Spectrum in Philadelphia. I also saw them with Sammy on the following 3 tours. Joe is a great guy. He’s a decent player. I used to be crazy into him but he just doesn’t do it for me anymore. This tour, in my view, is a mistake but to each his own. Ed and Alex were the Van Halen engine room. This is a cover band’s attempt.

Also I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and a good question to ask yourself if you were to die today would you go to heaven ? And if yes why ? To find out more please read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on KZbin. 😀

For all the talk about Joe's setup and getting all of the tones, I'm a little disappointed in what I'm hearing.

[@michaelsine5586]

Really? I suppose you can play the songs and get the tone?

[@davidnoy3964]

It's recorded on a phone, dude. What do you expect

[@YoBroMan]

@@davidnoy3964 True, but you can still hear that it's over processed and too "chorus-y." With all of the amp modeling available, I would have expected the tones to be near perfect for VH1 songs AND 5150 songs, and everything in between. There's a guy named @TomShreds, his tones are near perfect and his playing is spot on. It would have been pretty easy to get those tones from him. I like Satch, I've seen him a dozen times since the first G3 show. He's great, love his stuff, but I think knowing he was going to be under scrutiny, he missed the mark. And that's unfortunate because he's a great player.

[@davidnoy3964]

@YoBroMan I hear what you are saying, dude. But what I like about it is that it sounds like Satch and Ed. It's his spin on the King. I'm not sure why Satch would've used any Fractal equipment etc when Ed kept everything simple and went into Valve amps. If Satch had got up there and used amp modelling then somewhere somebody would've said , that's not how Eddie would have done it. I've listened to other uploads, and the Chorus isn't as noticeable.

[@YoBroMan]

@@davidnoy3964 I agree. plus the whole set is being played a whole step down, so it sounds a little different. I think the mistake was Satch talking about getting the tones and playing the songs. If he had just said, "We're going out and it's us playing a bunch of stuff...", he would not have created this expectation. I'd rather see/hear Satch play as himself then trying to play/sound like Edward.

I know I'm probably not the only one that feels this way, but I just think Joe Satriani was not the right choice for this tour..... Should have found some unknown that can play all Eddie's licks perfectly. Joe just puts his own spin on it and it just doesn't have the same impact for a tribute reunion type show. Joe's good in his own right but doing Eddie's thing. It's just not his style. It's not in his. Wheel House.

[@MrBoze-TicoCR]

Well, someone wills always compare ANYONE who Sammy picks as his guitarist against Eddie. That's just silly really when you consider this is not a "Tribute" band which there are many out there. This is a retro-spect of Sammy's career so it will include VH tunes and Chickenfoot tunes. Every other player that can do this will have spots where he/she will put their own spin on things or parts or licks and there is nothing wrong with that. You are right in that it's not Joe's style, but I'm glad it's not. Joe's career has not been to copy Eddie.
