VAN HALEN: Quality Video Footage Of Final Show Of U.S. Tour

Fan-filmed video footage of the final show of VAN HALEN’s U.S. tour, which took place on October 4 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, can be seen below.

The trek was VAN HALEN’s first since an aborted North American run three years ago in support of its then-new studio album, “A Different Kind Of Truth”.

Out now is “Tokyo Dome In Concert”, VAN HALEN’s first-ever live collection featuring singer David Lee Roth, despite numerous pro-shot concerts from the band’s original heyday being heavily booted for years — including film and videotaped-sourced shows from 1981 in Oakland, California; 1982 in Largo, Maryland; 1983 in San Paulo, Brazil and the US Festival in San Bernadino, California; and 1984 in Leicestershire, England — among others.

VAN HALEN bassist Wolfgang Van Halen told The Pulse Of Radio that his dad Eddie handed down some key tricks of the trade when playing live. “He definitely has some quirky lines he gives me that definitely help me out, like, in terms of playing music, ‘If you ever make a mistake, do it twice so the audience thinks you meant to do it,'” he said.

Eddie has been saying in recent interviews that the band is likely to record a new studio album after completing the trek, but he told The Pulse Of Radio a while back that he’s never been one to to just churn out songs. “I’m not like a jingle writer who can just crank out the hits, so to speak,” he said. “I need to sit down and really almost get to a state of mind where things just come. That’s what kinda makes it exciting — it’s like, ‘Wow, I wonder what lurks in the plumbing today?’ [Laughs]”
