Anyone complaining about sound.. this is all audio from cell phones. Also, Hagar is 76 years old. Many humans have trouble walking by the time they're 76. Satriani doesn't sound like Eddie. NOBODY DOES. If they did, Eddie would be out there but unfortunately he's not alive anymore. Lastly, if you think Satriani isn't good, just remember.. however good you are (or think you are), you are not 1/100 of the player he is.
Sounds even better with headphones on and to get nearly the live experience I have to turn the volume up. 1st Concert of their "Celebration" tour. We celebrate EVH life and death. I agree it does sound good from this content creator.
What is most important about this tour, is a tribute to the greatest guitarist of our generation. Joe’s not going out of his way to try and be Ed at all. It’s another great guitar player paying homage. Sam and Mike deserve this regardless of what any critics think or say.
Joe does a great job on guitar. He’s not trying to emulate Eddie completely, just pay a tribute to ed which is nice. Well done Joe puts his own style on it which works well
Absolutely. I see posts on social media from so many basement-dwelling Rock Band stars complaining. This is a celebration of Van Halen and it's all we're probably EVER going to get. It's not a cover band. It's not a tribute band.
@@vs4571 I saw David Lee Roth live in 1991 and he basically used spoken word for every song and used his theatrics to get through the night. Barely sung a note.
We are lucky to have 1 more chance to hear this music live. I am going to Toronto show and hearing the snippets I have so far, it has taken me back 38 years to when I saw them last...This is a celebration of VH & EVH not a replacement...Enjoy while we can....
I was there and these guys were having a blast. Joe played the parts perfectly and them introducing the keyboard player (Ray) was hilarious. Loverboy sounded great too.
Damn!!!! Joe never ceases to amaze!!!! I like that Sammy is singing low instead of trying to hit hi notes. Mikey and the keyboard player handle the highs great. And Jason killing!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
I think even though Ed and Sam had their differences, Ed is sitting in the crowd listening and enjoying hisself. You guys are doing a Great Job . I think Ed would be proud of all of you.
This is fu**ing joyful, that music being performed live again. A great energy. No-one wanted an Eddie Clone up there doing this, all we'd notice is the mistakes. This is a brilliant celebration of some great music, and great musicians in their Twilight years. It won't be long before you 'can't get this stuff no more'. Sure, Pete Thorn or Phil X could have done this more like Eddie, but be honest, when you watch all those Phil X and Pete Thorn gigs where they do VH covers, does it make you feel any different to seeing a regular VH tribute that you can see anytime?
This time I put the headphones on and maxed out the volume, almost like being there. Thank you for posting. They are not playing my city; I think they are playing the cities that will make them the most money. It's called Marketing and it works too.
If someone in management see this please tell Sammy that we missed him in Puerto Rico and we will like to have the chance to rock with the tribute to Eddie here! RedRockerfans!
I saw him at G3 years ago, he occasionally messes up, he just smiles on stage when he does. I saw him with Vai and Malmsteen at the Fox in Atlanta. I wish Gilbert had been there also.
One things for sure Ed was not a shredder and played with less gain, saturation and distortion so his sound was much clearer, warmer and fatter sounding than Joes.
Not sure if you play guitar but ed's amps have tons of gain. Also Ed started the whole shred movement not that he wanted to. Nobody will ever be Ed. I think Satriani is doing a great job of playing tribute to Ed. I know I will see them when they come to town.
@@starblaster77 I am 61 been playing since I was 11, I love Satriani and Ed, Ed just baked his tubes with a variac, big difference in tone, less saturated and processed.

Ed played with less gain, saturation and distortion? You have obviously never listened to ed during the 2007-2015 reunion tours where his tone is super saturated and gained out from the 5153 amps. Even on the 95, 98, and 2004 tour’s with peaveys his tone was gainy and not even close to what it was before
@@knightfall9394 you're correct I stopped listening to VH when Sammy replaced Dave, I heard the Van Hagar stuff on the radio and that's it, his sound was to processed to me, in the old days his tone was warm and woody and he had to find the sweet spot just to get a note to feedback unlike Satriani who could get any note to feedback and sustain from anywhere. A shredder would never play an amp like Ed did in the early days where the notes will die on the vine, guys like Satch can't pull off their licks without sustain, and to get sustain you gotta kill some tone.

No shit genius, he’s 76 years old. I hope to have 1/4 of his energy at that age. If you don’t like it, move on. I’m personally enjoying the hell out of this.
News flash. Singers lose their range as they age. Pay attention. These guys are in their 60s and 70s and STILL killing it. No backing track bullshit. No hiding. Pure rock and roll. Bad notes and all. I’ll take that any day over the garbage that’s out now.

Joe Satriani is a great guitarist but he’s not even close to Eddies tone. There’s 100 guitarists on CZcams that can nail Eddies sound but Joe can’t?? Glad I saved my money.
No shit. Nobody has Eddie's tone but Eddie. Call up 100 youtube guitarists and have them get up and play in front of thousands of live fans. Not a cell phone camera.

Sammy sounds amazing! The whole band sounds great! I would love to see this.
Satriani is not my cup of tea but as a player he's a bloody monster 😮😮😮
Eddie wasn’t Satch, either. Music would be pretty boring if everyone sounded the same.
Exactly...atleast Sammy doesn't need a freakin pole to hold him up on stage like Ozzy did!!! That's when it's time to stop...
Holy crap!! That sounds so freaking good. Thank you for sharing!!!
Joes tone is awesome.

Really does sound great!

Greatest is subjective.
Good and influential for sure.....
Ed had his role and he filles it as nobody else couldve.
Sammy and Mike are national treasures..
And Satch is universal treasure!

Joe and Jason are a perfect match for Sam and Mike!! Sounds incredible!
Wow... Everyone complaining about the vocals has never heard David Lee Roth in his prime
Spot on response man...

Is that John Bonham image on the drums .?!
Jason always has a tribute to his dad on the skins

FUCK YES!!!!!
Only going to get better & tighter band as the tour progresses.
Great to hear that rock n roll that still kicks ass.
This is great stuff. Long live VH

Should be peaking as a band when they hit Chicagoland August 3rd. Can't wait !
Tinley Park I can't wait!
Saw thin in Tampa tonight. It was spiritual. Sammy lifted everyone’s spirits.
Get your rest before the show. It’s gonna rock you.
En verdad, qué genial está! ❤❤❤❤
Just awesome
Great job! Thanks for sharing. I wish Bonham wouldn't have gone into double time at the end. Bad decision. Oh well! It's still sounds GREAT!
I like it
Satch got the Brown Sound working pretty well
Brown Sound? lol He used Soldanos on all the Newer stuff.
@@GreenMeanie101 Sounds the same, so who cares how he got it?

Gimme Some of THAT!
Wait till they get comfortable. Really hit that groove then.
Awesome!!

MA what a beast man!
🤘 Genial
Jason over-emphasizes the quarter notes. Alex was more grooving on eighth notes.
This song Alex played 1/4 notes on the high hats and not his typical 1/8 notes
This just made me miss Eddie even more
Satriani sounds awesome! He might throw a little bit of his own stuff a little too much tho. I can see die hard fans getting mad.
Sounding really good
It's called the Best of ALL Worlds Tour.
He was playing an EVH striped guitar in another video doing a cover of Mas Tequila, but not playing that guitar for the VH songs?!
Right where’s the custom Frankenstrat he was showing off??
@@geraldhartley Home, at yo momma;s basement, where YOU should be, Babyboy
They're laughing all the way to the bank....
If anyone should be the one to pay tribute to Eddie it's Satch! Beast Mode!
Sweet tour!!!!
I caught Satch at House of Blues back in the 90's. His playing was good, but just a little too "perfect" for my tastes.
I saw him at G3 years ago, he occasionally messes up, he just smiles on stage when he does.
I saw him with Vai and Malmsteen at the Fox in Atlanta.
I wish Gilbert had been there also.

Alex VH thump...sorry
Huh?
In the world of drummers he was mediocre at best.
These songs are obviously a bit too difficult in Sammy's age. Never forget seeing him 1995 on top of his game in Van Halen. It was brilliant.
All of these guys are over 60.
Its actually impressive.
