[@thomasmooper6270]

[@PaulRoseGuitar]

The silence between Eruption and YRGM says it all. Devastation....

[@JPAULMUSIC]

mouths opened-slack jawed

[@kerraig666]

I was there ;)

[@70drok]

Craig Bailey you are one lucky soul. Did you have any idea of what the opening act for sabbath was gonna be like?

[@kerraig666]

Not visually but had heard the album

[@andywainwright1516]

I know that - I saw you.

[@armandobarbosa2914]

Van Halen seria de Hanley!

[@144wychwood]

Interesting all the recent releases of live concerts from early days. Makes me wonder whether someone "connected" with band is source. If so, hope to hear more of live concert stuff up till 1984.

Always suspected it's DLR....

Dude, you know they are sooooo holding out on some kick-ass audio and vids.

@Wychwood I like a lot of Black music from the past like Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Miles Davis and others who broke the color barrier and paved the way for everyone. Not that the color barrier is truly broken because systemic racism still undoubtedly exists in the music industry and I'm completely disgusted by it. But anyways thank you my Man for checking out Van Halen. BLM✊🏿✊🏻

even though the sound quality isn't top notch , you can hear the energy pouring out. wish i could have seen an early Van Halen.

[@andywainwright1516]

You can hear me on this. One voice in a thousand maybe, but I'm there nevertheless.

[@Savoy1984]

Thank you, thank you to whoever uploaded this, born the next town over and live down the road from when this was recorded, only a bit in but Roth mentioned's "Hanley", well I'll be !!!!!!...I've said it before and I'll say it again...I know I was only 4 when this happened and I didn't know who they were but gutted I didn't go!

[@HrhFish]

Must have been a daunting prospect to follow VH on stage. I wonder if Ozzy and the guys loved listening to VH every night or dreaded going on after them. I'd say a good chance of both.....
