Live RHRN

**Dan Halen** · 10.26.01, 10:55 AM

Does anyone know who picked the songs to go on this album? It has just about every song from F.U.C.K. (which isn't a bad thing). But wouldn't you rather hear The Dream Is Over instead of Spanked? Also take off In 'N' Out and Man On A Mission and maybe add Mine All Mine and A.F.U. Any other thoughts or suggestions?

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>My thought is, how the hell did this ever get released? This is a legendary live band, and their only live album sounds so stale and the audience sounds canned. And the song selection is too predictable; but then again Van Halen have always been slaves to a setlist, with very little variety. The best thing about the whole album is Won't Get Fooled Again.

Should have released LWAN on an official CD! [img]smilies/thumb.gif[/img]

I would have had no problem with 'In N Out' and 'Man on a Mission' being left off. 'Dream Is Over' should have been on it. Another thing I didn't like was having 'Aint Talkin Bout Love' so early on the disc. That song has always been played later in the show.

The best part is from Eddie's Solo to the end. 'Wont Get Fooled Again' simply rocks.
Thumbs up to hearing some of 'Cabo Wabo'.

I agree Glenn. That song AND the setlist on Live RHRN is so damn predictable and boring! I like the album F.U.C.K. and all, but jeez, did they have to include pretty much the whole damn album on RHRN????

There were so many other great VH songs that should have been included on it. And as for the sound and the audience sounds....Agreed. It sounds lame-

The best thing about RHRN is what Glenn said: The inclusion of "Won't Get Fooled Again"

They did a Hell of a great job on that tune!Plus it's one of my all time favorite rock and roll songs anyway! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
