It’s almost not worth wasting time to post a comment on what is left of VH. Got on board with VH in the early 80’s and what people are looking at today is not VH, just a money grab. The youth and spirit that goes along with the original sound is far, far, far gone. And of course, having an incapable bass player even adds to the drama of the band. Age can be a b*****, and no matter who you are, an individuals voice changes with age, unfortunately some artists don’t work at keeping vocally prepared for the job. If wasting money for an unprepared vocalist and incapable bass player is your thing, have fun at the circus act. Damn shame that legendary bands of the 70 / 80 era are fading away like this.
As a lover of 80’s Hard Rock and of course Van Halen, I am so glad that they are touring and now giving a diversified crowd a taste what a rock n roll party should look like. I guarantee you that’ll out rock every other act on the bill. Listening to the live CD a lot it makes me realize that Dave can sing all the stuff, he just changes up how it was sung originally. Which why not, do you really want to hear the same exact version but just with canned screams from the audience over it. He’s just trying to make it interesting. To himself and the crowd.
