What a great show! Sammy and the band sounded great. The place was packed. I can't wait for the DVD to come out. For the set list goto the SHND.

Bigdog,

I have DirectTv here in Canada and I checked for the concert but it wasn't anywhere to be found! Actually, the Leafs were beating up on the Devils so I didn't check back to see if the concert came on later in the evening...it was supposed to be on channel 103 right? nothing but the wwf replay...HELP!!!

I'm watching it right now. In my opinion, its not very good. Its kinda painful to see this. Their version of "Finish What Ya Started" was boring. I knew it was not going to be just like Van Halen, but I couldn't believe what I was seeing. This was the same guy fronting Van Halen? I really liked the Hagar version of Van Halen, too. I'm sort of glad he's not in Van Halen anymore now.

Oh no, "Why Can't This Be Love" is on now! Please stop! Sammy is really fat, too!

Just my opinion.

Hey Brown, check on 801 also. It is showing there to. Ashe, we all have our own opinion, but I thought he sounded pretty damn good. Yes he has put on a few pounds, big deal. At least he still has his hair. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Just my opinion.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>I met Sammy a few months ago, and I saw him up close, he wasn't fat at all. I think that you need to get your eyes checked! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

I wish I had Direct TV. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

For those who don't have DirecTV,,,,

If Sammy did as good at that show as he did when I saw him I'd say it was a good show.

**Ashe** · 05.04.01, 10:09 PM

I knew I'd probably take some heat for saying Sammy was fat. But, he looked fat to me. I haven't seen him on TV or anything since the Balance tour. Maybe it was the sudden shock of seeing him 5 years older.

I would take baldness over obesity anyday! Would you rather look like Bruce Willis or John Goodman?

**MineAllMine** · 05.04.01, 10:23 PM

John Goodman can lose weight!

**MikeL** · 05.04.01, 10:25 PM

Sammy's weight has gone up and down a lot over the years. Big whoop. How's the show?

**Wombat** · 05.05.01, 08:34 AM

This is an abreviated show also. The whole show was was pretty good. I was a little dissapointed on the DirectTV show when he has on the Redwings jersey they edited out the whole crowd chanting Detroit Sucks, you can see Sammy laughing while he is singing. There was lots to that show that you don't get to see.
