[@peteraustinnoto142]

Yes

[@billjames7495]

Van Cherone ?

[@andresihotang2314]

If you ever watch Extreme live, Gary Cherone is just like that on stage. He always moves like aerobic athlete, can't just stand still, moves his hands and twists his body. It's just don't really match in a Van Halen concert, hence why you said he was looked like a VH contest idol winner.

[@andresihotang2314]

@Daryl Wheeler You're right. Extreme is a funk/funky-metal band. If you listen to their music, you can imagine their vocalist must always be moving around like a maniac, and the other 3 members also can't keep quiet. Van Halen is a different kettle of fish for Cherone. VH vocalist must have a charisma and control on the stage.

[@TheMasterSergio]

Hehehe good point

[@followthesun2115]

I'm surprised how much I like Gary's performance here. He just goes for it; totally uninhibited. If I saw this video in 1998 I'd probably be more critical, but Gary's vocals are on point, which is more than I can say for DLR when he rejoined VH in 2007. And I'm a huge DLR fan.

[@godsinbox]

VH were notorious for fixing up their 'live' recordings. This may also be one.

[@Beepbopboh]

False, sir. Dlr carried them throughout the 2007 tour , where Ed was still half a mess…. He sang I’ll Wait just fine , which is waaay more taxing than Jump. All opinions of course . So we’re either both right , or both wrong …but since I’m a genius , I’m gonna go with you are wrong .

[@justme7185]

@@Beepbopboh Yep. He was still good in '07. Saw two shows, both good. Last show of tour in Grand Rapids was the best he ever sounded live, to me. Ever. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2G5gGiaZZaoj6c&ab_channel=SilverStallionVideos

[@har9020]

I've seen Van Halen in concert ten times and with all the different lineups. The concert with Cherone was great because the setlist covered the best of their ENTIRE catalog, and Eddie looked like he was enjoying himself for the first time in years.

[@har9020]

@Thomas Cavanaugh I doubt it. The album he did with them did not do well and I think their record label let them know how unhappy they were. Some of the tunes written for the second record with Cherone got reworked for Cherone's later project called Tribe of Judah. There are some good songs on that record, like "Thanks for Nothing" and "East of Paradise" -- those were much heavier than most of the material on "Van Halen III" and I think could have made for a great second VH record with him. Personally, I think the major mistake in VHIII was having Mike Post as the producer.

[@jasons2270]

Yeah Eddie butted heads with Sammy and David all the time I wish I would have saw them in concert with Gary

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

No the mistake was letting Eddie produce the album. Mike Post really didn't do much. Ed was in no shape to be producing an album. If there had been a real producer on the album I guarantee it would have been awesome.

[@Murphaderf]

@@jasons2270only after Ed Leffler died did things sour with Sammy and Eddie. 86-93 were great years.

[@johnpatterson4272]

It was 'happy' music back in the day, there is no need to criticize Cherone or Hagar now. They sang the soundtrack of our young lives. Now Let It Be.

[@mauilina]

Love this version because Gary Cherone is here....the best! xx

[@2good2betrue3]

Damn, loved this man!. Van Halen fan here, I just want to say Gary Cherone is one hell of boss performer!🤘 Eddie made the right choice by choosing him, He's such a talented singer, songwriter and performer....His stage presence is captivating when you see him perform live. Saw Extreme concert and he owns the stage with some very cool antics....You also need to watch the "Freddie Mercury tribute in 1992" where Gary and Extreme played all the famous Queen Hits and He owned the stage I've never seen any frontman or band, the way He captivate and pumped up the crowd into joyful hysteria jumping and singing along is such an epic joy to watch, watched it 20x times already....they owned the stage and did the best tribute and performance that even Metallica and Guns and Roses are also there to pay tribute to Freddie, those bands paled in comparison to how Gary and Extreme performed. That's simply the most epic tribute I've seen by an artist. Gary is the Man!...cheers.😄

[@theaterdreamer]

Fuck, I miss Eddie. Seeing him here, healthy and happy.....I really miss him. That’s a void inside me that’s never getting filled again.

Really sucks man, I’m 21 and I never got to see him live damn I wish I group up in the 80s, I believe I was born in the wrong generation all these great musicians dying and not being able to see the full band perform. I’ve only seen Metallica, Cheap Trick , Heart , Bryan Adams, and Billy Idol . Was gonna see Rolling Stones and Billy Joel but thanks to covid, idc about getting I just wanna see them before there gone .

He was far from healthy in 1998. 96-2007 he was an absolute mess

[@toddprater14]

I love it too since 84’ funny most VH fanatics hate it saying it’s too poppy. I always dug it, all van haven songs are rockers.RIP Edward 🎸

[@guybrushthreepwood8174]

They picked Cherone for a reason. the guy can sing. of course its weird when he's singing Roth's or Hagar's songs but the guy can sing and that's why they picked him.

[@christawilson2122]

Gary can sing his ass off

[@martinpoblador4588]

Yes, he CAN sing alright BUT, to me he sounds too screechy squeaky for Van Halen! Just my personal opinion, you'd need more baritone there, he seems pitchy all the time. Funny, but Michael Bolton could've done a better job, don't you think? Also, Gary's overdressed for the part, he looks like a nerd among rockers. Just imagine Ralph Macchio with Guns 'n Roses, get the picture? 😂 I like Gary's voice don't get me wrong, but I think he's better off singing his own songs, should've stayed with Extreme, i loved him in Extreme.

[@maxbeau5062]

Love the camera work on this. Really feel the energy of the whole band. Eddies guitar has insane tone even more so than usual.

[@tyryztoll]

Cherone with VH: "A" for effort. "F" for results. Square peg/round hole. Still worth watching if nothing else to see people living free and having fun pre-cell phones and lockdowns.

[@dlracer2]

I give him a solid C for effort. His stage antics were awkward and poor. He’d get a better letter grade for effort if he worked on his chemistry with the band. Even DLR is a better vocalist on his worst day.

Gary Cherone rules, i personally appreciate a lot his voice and his personality on stage. Not to mention, if Eddie VH wanted him in studio to write and record together, he must have heard something some of you don't get..

[@colinburroughs9871]

get? I think you need to take inventory of what the musical landscape of 1998 was and where VH did or didn't fit into it (they didn't fit into it). This is as odd now as it was then.

By all accounts this was one of the tours where everyone got along and the party lifestyle was under reasonable control. I think they sounded great and Cherone was in a situation that no one wanted to be in, because you can’t please everyone and be all things to everybody. He did it as well as anyone else would have IMHO.
