I recall U2 getting cancelled for trying to push their politics. When was U2 getting cancelled was it for Sunday Bloody Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t understand who Laura Ingraham was writing about 20 years ago when she wrote “Shut up and Sing”? Not surprised. Hey you’re the one who made bet. You made a dumb statement. Be better. You’re 10 years younger and have a typical mindset of a retiree on a fixed income. 10 years ago I was still racing motocross, you sit in a rocking chair on your front porch He is quite the ignorant bonehead.

But you're forgetting Van Halen (more so with Sammy than DLR) I assume you just typed that backwards. Van Halen died when DLR left IMO.

Deephaven Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Of course I grew up in that era and played guitar in a cover band and we played a bunch of their tunes, Metallica, Ozzy etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said I am partial to the Roth years. Van Halen, for me anyway has always been about Eddie ……King of the 6 string. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all junk after and tons of brilliance before. There were some good songs after DLR left with Sammy at the front, but the over all ALBUM listening experience was certainly lacking. I can listen to almost every single album end to end with DLR. And you are right, when Eddie put that keyboard in front of himself, that took a lot away from their sound. 1984 is a great album, but that was certainly the beginning of their demise. IMO. I did see them live in Chicago at the Tinley Park outdoor amphitheater during their Balance tour (Little woman surprised me with tickets and a weekend adventure), and it was a damn good show. Skid Row was the opener... A few years later when they were at odds with each other playing at the Xcel Energy center in St. Paul, when Sammy was on stage, Eddie was not, and vice versa. It was more of a Sammy Hagar/Van Halen twin billing! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
