VAN HALEN instrumental improv while dave gets first aid during van halen 1984 tour las vegas

David hit in the eye by coin by fan steps off stage while eddie and alex stretch there wings for a quick jam session. very similar to the jimmy kimmel incident funny enough.

[@jwingo7257]

Two brothers playing in sync...they read each other’s body language and effortlessly adapted on stage. They were the battery of the band, the power and drive.

[@helltoupee6664]

Axl would have cancelled the next three tours. Diamond Dave is the man.

[@christopherdunn317]

+Joe Manzella lol

[@josharmoogam6696]

Joe Manzella Axl has gotten better now.

[@RonnieDillJrLoveIsADarkPlace]

Yes, he is.

[@RonnieDillJrLoveIsADarkPlace]

+Jaxon THE CREATURE buell Yeah, Fuck Axl Rose.

[@cdkilo77]

This is so true. He would've assaulted someone first and cause a riot.

[@NadaII]

Ed just busts out a lil jazz fusion

[@billbelzek6748]

I always loved it in the old days when Ed would do an impromptu jam onstage with Alex .... got to see his real brilliance coming through

[@vhalenforever8807]

Love these guys...blew me away Live at 13...Im 44 now and STILL love em as much VH FOREVER :)

[@vintagevanhalen5394]

VHALEN FOREVER right there with you man. vh on billboard music awards may 17. yeeees

[@vhalenforever8807]

Im a female lol but thanks

[@LuisRodriguez-cf4tf]

When Dave use to sing on his real register.....old days gone by......Thanks for the video

[@splash5150izy]

^^^@Luis Rodriguez .. "They may talk about you cold when you were headed for the skies but you were young and bold and baby didn't that change with a wink of your eye Now no ones talkin' 'bout those crazy day's gone by .. . No one talk's about the time's you cried" .. .

[@myworstenemy680]

Wow, Dave is actually singing most of the words!! Hands down my favorite front man of all time.

[@cdkilo77]

Maybe Dave didn't have the best voice compared to the others but back in the day he was a pretty damn good singer and a hell of an entertainer. The DLR years are my favorite.

[@patrickarnold237]

Eddie has such great rhythm.

[@mattt.5895]

This same thing happened in 2015 and Eddie just kinda stood around noodling on his guitar quietly with his back to the audience. It was awkward.

[@splash5150izy]

^^^@Matt T .. I know's what eddie would be going thru, as a Rocker myself it would be extremely awkward and somewhat kinda Stressful :P] .v ..

[@JasonAchilles]

Fantastic!! Had not previously seen any live versions of this tune… Great to see Eddie actually playing the keys instead of a tape recorder, the switch off on the guitar is awesome and of course that “freeform jazz exploration” was killer… Little bit of an insight into what those guys would get into behind closed doors

[@treyman6899]

Ed and Al are like F this! Lets do this!

[@tacobell5150]

I was at this show, so cool to see actual footage from it, wow. I saw them in pocatello idaho on the same tour and the EXACT same thing happened, I've also heard SEVERAL other people say they saw the same "quarter incedent" in other cities on that tour. it was fake as hell, it was Dave's way of getting the crowd to not throw shit lol

[@VODECI]

They know how to keep the show going!

[@JIMJAMSC]

I would enjoy nothing better than Ed and Alex noodling around for a few hours.

[@anotheramericanboomer9164]

V an Halen has beed whats got me to go to 60 love everyone Thank you for all the concerts all the fum

[@robertschaffer1598]

This is when Van Halen were the Undisputed Kings of the concert arena circuit.

[@belotface]

This is what REAL musicians do when something goes wrong...

[@DreidMusicalX]

Was at this concert. My mother almost ran DLR over in the parking lot before the show ever started. He was out riding a bike and he called my mom a botch for almost ruining the show. hahaha! My mom just about fainted. He let everyone know inside about it too! hahaha!

[@majr6045]

Whaaaa no way

[@majr6045]

Tell us more

[@rookd1137]

Dave is the man Love VH!!!!!

[@FirenzeAuditore]

"I'll wait" at the beginning

[@shane2613]

Pretty bad ass riff they had going on there

[@Fakename70]

One of the more coherent clips I've seen from that tour.

[@JasonLeonPike]

Fantastic!!

[@DVincentW]

THANKS!!!

[@judylarson2829]

Van Halen is the BEST!! I saw them alot "back in the day". It looks like Dave smoked himself in the face then, (1984) & did it again on the Jimmy Kimmel show! Ouch! But kept on rockin anyway!!

[@hirskdubbi]

Dave's singing great here

[@realguitarshredder]

Van halen on top

[@nissansentraglx]

that comment was made before he appeared

[@SethalapodStudios]

This jam should've been on 1984

[@ChrisCollinsx]

Kinda sounded like the riff from head hunter in the beginning

[@TVisTheRetina]

What is the song in the first intro seconds?

[@vincentyzer1627]

It's "i'll wait".

[@nissansentraglx]

where's Mike at least?

[@ALtheDoctorWho]

I thought he was going to come out with a eye patch or goggles then again that might not be a good Idea. Some of these concert go were's might take it to another level sad to say.

[@dasse1588]

"Instrumental improv". It's called jamming 😠they've been doing it since they were 10 😭

[@Frip36]

how do you know it's improve

[@mikehumm9660]

F this F that

[@joepipe1010]

Maybe it was a fake or a funny joke in Roth style.

[@JulietsMan]

alex van halens meter blows

[@jmgmarcus808]

JulietsMan He sped up a lot back in the day, so did Moon on a lot of album tracks though. He's much better now, but probably is playing to a click. I always thought Al was terribly underrated as a drummer. It was still the early days here, they aren't even 30 years old here. Hahahaha.

[@colinbutler2552]

shit audio

[@Frip36]

Audio is so bad you should just delete this

[@VanHalenStarWars]

Classic riffage at it's best....this is the stuff they need to release on blue-ray!!! Please

[@vintagevanhalen5394]

Daniel Shanle that's what i keep sayin.;)

[@dadadruma]

Vintage Van Halen Roger That!!!

[@imaheadlightonanorthboundt6677]

I was at this show. They played at the fairly new Thomas and Mack Center on the UNLV campus. Someone had somehow lowered themselves from the roof and painted a huge VH on the front of the building a week prior to the show. Anyway, Roth was drunk and passed out off to the side behind the drum riser for one and a half to two songs early in the set. They played instrumentals of the songs he was missing. You could tell the end was near. As a matter of fact I remember bringing a pair of binoculars and basically watched Ed and AL. I caught 5-6 shows on that tour and couldn't get over Dave's BS sword demo and him just going thru the motions. The coin thing was one of his lines at every show. Hey you better stop ----- or I'll fuk your girl friend, or the next SOB that hits me with a coin I'll kick your ass Blah,blah...he did it to get the crowd going.

[@vintagevanhalen5394]

+Edward Van Halen really, but you can actually see the obect being thrown.in the other part of the show. you think that was a plant? link here kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4GyoYN9q7lgm9E

[@imaheadlightonanorthboundt6677]

No, but it looks like someone had taped the entire show. Not saying he didn't get hit by the object. All I remember is was a mess when the show started, yet like many other times I'd see him in the same condition, he seems to sober up to get through the show. As tight as the band was for that tour, Dave was a disappointment. My two cents.

[@vintagevanhalen5394]

cool

[@wilsonblauheuer6544]

why would they tolerate a lead singer who is so drunk he can't sing or even stay awake?

[@teddyt]

Purple Flying Wolfhound your so full of shit...

[@alecbilicki8520]

Eddie needed Dave as his musical brother. Dave is the voice of Van Halen.

[@JohnnyBeane]

So cool!!!

[@mckenziepictures]

Van Halen (the group as well as the brothers) are ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

[@Theo-hc5ob]

The way things are going This will be the New and Improved Van Halen: Just Ed and Al.

[@billbelzek6748]

By the time they are 75 yrs. old VH will just be Ed and Alex doing 15-min. Cream covers --- just like they did in the Trojan Rubber Company back in 1972 LOL

[@adriangutierrez5374]

Bill Belzek lol that's fucking hilarious.

[@infowazz]

so cool to see eddie sober and dave back. great Kimmel show. also amazing interview with Eddie at Smithsonian. very humble dude.

[@chriswilgus165]

Lol. Sober? He was probably on the purest cocaine and alcohol money could buy. 1984.

[@splash5150izy]

Audio is Terrible that's so Insulting to the "King of Guitar" :P] .v ..

[@RorysIrishTour]

i hoped for first aids

[@realguitarshredder]

Btw whats the intro song

[@jjpopnfresh6822]

I'll Wait

[@realguitarshredder]

@@jjpopnfresh6822 I mean the intro of this video.. not the live show..

[@josharmoogam6696]

Nice improvisation!

[@mikkosutube]

what a mess..
