Wish I could have been there. Satch killed this one. Sammy's showing some birthdays in range, but overall still good.

Five guys. Let's not forget the touring keys guy. 😄

Satch is a bad mf

Tampa! Was awesome 🤘😎🤘

That’s good. Too bad Jason couldn’t respect AL as well and for once take down those pics of his dad and pay tribute to AL, being that he had a kit made to replicate Alex’s kit and is making money off Alex’s career. Not daddy’s. Zero class.

Me too. Couldn't agree more. Satch hit the key moments of Ed's playing and then took it his own direction. It was brilliant.

Ed is smiling because two guys he hates are making money off his music!? 😂 🫵🏻🤡

@@KokoTheGorilla69 Ed and Sam lived a crossed from each other for quite the time and anything from 5150 to end era wise Sammy has every right to go out and perform. I will respect your opinion but to me I don't think ed is complaining above when there are few other people out there playing Halen tunes. People will hate and complain as well as others will say differently but i think its pretty awesome to see Sam out there with the boys playing some of the tunes. Satch isn't Ed but Satch is no slacker either but at least he's not trying to clone ed either for if he was, I'm sure be even more hate because a people would go oh you didn't do it right etc.

@@unscriptedmind6212 he even told his own son to make his own way and not play his (Eddie's) music lol!!! Yet you think Eddie would love that Sam is making money off his work?? 😂😂 Get real!

@@KokoTheGorilla69 again you are entitled to your opinion but I don't see no harm in Sam out there doing these songs that he contributed to. Sounds like your not much of a fan of him which as I've mentioned I respect that at end of the day if you don't like something nobody is forcing you to watch have a nice day

@@KokoTheGorilla69no he didn’t and Wolfie has always said he doesn’t want feed off his Dad’s music and he’s quite capable of being able too.

If anyone ever bashed that dude they have never heard him or are clueless about serious guitar talent.

@@frankrichards3089 There have been!! People saying he's not the right guy for the job etc etc!

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Don't say never, they might ❤

Maybe if the vocals were more excited

It might depend on the venue, and that's more about what the facility charges, but we had 2 lawn tickets including parking and spent less than $100 for the entire night.

Sammy just cashing in on the death of EVH

Where else are you going to hear Van Halen music played in a big venue with two of it's band members, a contemporary of EVH, and two other talented musicians?

Sammy isn't honoring anything but his own name and his ego and himself with this trying to recreate Van Halen. Does he ever mention Ed during the shows? If this is truly a tribute there should be a part where they show Ed or atleast mention him.

@@Texman4268 💯 % agree

But clearly are limitations

The bass isn't coming through in here but the sound was HEAVY last night. I think part of it is the fact that they're tuned down a whole step so the lower frequencies are a bit jammed together. I loved how most of these sounded tuned down.

It's never going to sound accurate on a phone mic. It won't actually sound like this in person.

@@RMelvin71I checked as well! Key of D instead of E. I suggested awhile back just drop some stuff down to make it easier for Sammy. Maybe they listened!?

MA's bass was hittin' heavy last night. This video is good but doesn't come close to the actual sound. My chest felt MA's beat all night.

And you think a phone recording is an actual representation of reality? Come on, you're smarter than that

And when you are 76 years old we will say the same about you. If you even live that long. 😂

@@geraldhartleygood one

Hehe I was at this concert and I could barely understand a word he was sayin😭

You must be deaf.. Sammy still killing it..

Sounds so tired

Sammy keeps riding Eddie's music and name too.

I guess Satch has to be drunk and stoned for you to be happy. Makes sense for a master guitar player to play someone elses solo note for note. But VH troll love to comment how the addict was the best.

Pack your bags....it won't.

It was full last night

GOOD GOD JASON; WE KNOW!! John is your dad. I agree 100% and have said the same thing. You have a kit designed to honor the AVH look and tom’s to compliments his fills and stuff (But no cowbell for some fucking reason) you are making $$ playing said Alex’s parts and music but instead of a fce of Alex you put pictures of ur dad on 3 bass drums so we don’t forget that John Bohnam is ur dad?!?! Its embarrassing, shows zero integrity and show you will ride ur dads coattails til the day you die. Kinda lost respect for him (not like he cares) because as you said, it’s “look who my family is.” Nauseating.

I’ve seen the setlist and they’re not doing what Hagar was promising: a deep dive into the catalogue to honour the legacy of VH. Hagar phones in Roth-era tunes, of the scant few they play.

​@@capnmo6718Yep. It's just your typical Sammy tour and not at all as he was branding it as. It's not a "tribute". Just another Hagar show.

​@@e.l.norton I don't recall him saying it was a tribute show; the tribute show fell through in classic modern VH tradition. This show is exactly what he talked about on Stern

If you don’t like it why’d you buy a ticket…love VH fans and hate em too…bunch of whiners…a 77 year old guy trying his best to entertain people and you’re crying…..sickening

You do realize that Alex Van Halen had kits with 3 bass drums, right? I mean if you don't like the current band, fine but at least come up with a comment that has some validity.

You have no clue. Jason Bonham is one of the best drummers around ..

touch the doll where it hurt you

Trying to be like and copy Al but he isn't close...just like the rest of this fake VH show is. Heck Steel Panther can jam Van Halen songs better than this.

Stupidest comment ever, I guess he's supposed to just wipe out 10 yrs of his career and never play VH songs again

You mean DLR. Sam was a brand in his own right before VH and is more successful financially than they ever were. He's not "living off" anyone. Take your diamond blinders off

@@SRQ5150 No

@@SRQ5150 He should go out and play them Sammy songs that you claim he was more successful with than VH.

@@XYz-vy7tr Money is not everything. Perhaps it is to you.

And your next gig in front of that many people is when ?

Sammy can sing better at 76 than I could at 18 or ever. Lol

You are ignorant , remember that EVH was A PIANIST/KEYBOARDIST before a Guitarist!!!!! He did hates metal!!!!

🤡🤡🤡🤦🤦🤦

@@user-du1yk7uk9vJason is playing it too fast, over playing it and losing Alex’s feel (and come on, you didn’t get / use a cowbell for the bridge 🤦🏻‍♂️) and to top it off those pics of his dad on not 1, not 2 but 3 bass drums to remind us he will ride his dads coattails to his dying dad is pathetic. This is literally (90% anyway) a tribute to VH, hence his custom kit, and you don’t honor the guy that you are there to emulate while making money off of Alex’s career and you put up pics of daddy so we don’t forget he’s ur dad? Zero class. Totally pathetic.

It was an awesome show! You obviously weren't there and judging a show off a cell phone video

Were you expecting DLR songs or something? He did Van Hagar era songs they haven't performed in many years. I thought it was brilliant.

If they wanted to just put somebody out there that can sound like Ed, there are lots of better choices, Pete Thorn would've been my pick, but there is something to be said about chemistry. Sammy went with what he knows with playing with them in The Circle and Chickenfoot. There's too much emphasis on this being a tribute instead of just accepting it as an effort to keep the Van Hagar era music alive.

​@@RMelvin71Sammy claimed it was supposed to be this deep tribute to the VH legacy but he is just making it about himself like always and acts like Satriani is better than Eddie seems like. Sammy isn't honoring Eddie or Alex with this tour, it's him trying to relive his VH days with his Chickencrap band😂😂

Eddie played piano?!? Next thing you’re going to tell me is that Alex played guitar and Eddie played drums, but they switched for some reason…

@@johnvize3636 First instrument thar EDV played was piano and it was CLASSICALLY trained , it recorded LOTS of songs where keyboards were more important than guitar : and the cradle will rock ..dancing in the street....jump...I'll wait in the Roth era and then love walks in....feels do good ...when it's love....right now and many others...so what?????

@@user-du1yk7uk9vthat can’t possibly be true, Eddie was a guitar hero, nobody would want to see him playing keyboards…

@@johnvize3636 I can't believe that you are so IGNORANT!!! everyone knows that Eddie was a keyboard player as well as a guita r player...you should learn and THEN make a comment otherwise you are just showing your immense IGNORANCE
