** REVIEWS for Indianapolis - 10.14 ** - Page 4

This 45 year old mom had an incredible time with my 2 sons in Indianpolis Sunday night.

I was a HUGE Van Halen fan in the late 70s and early 80s. Lost interest due to Sammy Hagar and all things that come along with raising children. When I heard that David Lee Roth was back with the group, I couldn't resist showing my boys what the ultimate 70s rock band was and introducing them to the man who all others learn by... EVH himself.

My 21 year old son loves classic rock and truly appreciated it. My 18 year old likes bands like In Flames and Kill Switch Engaged, so he "liked" it, but not sure he appreciated it.

Dave has quite a mouth. He made a comment to a mom in the front that made this mom pretty uncomfortable sitting next to her 2 sons, but other than that (oh and the fact that they didn't play Drop Dead Legs), it was a night I'll remember for a long time. You never stop loving good rock and roll and listening to someone as talented as Eddie. I wish I could be there all over again and soak up EVH all over again. He's amazing. Did things with a guitar I didn't know you could.

And the affection he showed for his son on stage was great. I loved it!

I haven't been to a rock concert in over 20 years. Went to TONS of them in the 70s and saw lots of great bands. My son is jealous that I got to see the great ones. But now he can say that he did too. What a night!

This is in reference to #44 and #45: I don’t remember ether one of those things happening. All I can say is it was a great show and I enjoyed it. The band seems to be getting more comfortable as the tour goes on, but that is just my opinion. One of the high lights for me was when EVH did his solo he started out with women in love. It would have been cool if they would have played the whole song, but like I said I enjoyed it.

#46 Yes the comment made to the lady, and her daughter was out of line, but that is just Dave, you got to expect that from him. If you seen a lot of shows in the 70’s and 80’s, I am sure you have seen things that where just as bad if not worse...lol...But seeing Eddie up there playing the classics again with the passion he showed was worth it.

Remember this happening.... but don't remember the mention of recording the show.

I wasn't there, so I don't know.

Been here a long while dipshit and also not from the Ukraine. Ever seen Seinfield? I did not go in with a chip on my shoulder, in fact I was fired up and have the $320 tickets I bought to prove it. It didn't do it for me but I'm glad it did for others. I also clearly stated that Alex is the one who didn't look good-said nothing bad about Dave. As for Sam and Mike I do hope it hits me better- thus this was why I stated such.

Tip for you oh rider of the shortbus; learn to read more clearly and articulate your thoughts. Are only positive reviews only allowed? Grow up junior. You're the exact reason Brett is banning people for starting/talking shit. Honest post that was my opinion and you choose to start shit. Enjoy the ban to internet syberia fuckstick.....

K, Thanks for the potty mouth. Ending.
