I just got back from the Van Halen concert tonight in Dallas, Texas. I knew it would be good, but I cannot believe how much better it turned out to be. Eddie is absolutely determined to erase the 2004 memories of himself and he killed! Wolfgang still has the acne and Nintendo/Cheetos baby fat thing going, but he knows how to play the bass and even some drums. What kid would kill to have his gig at 16 years old??? It was actually Eddie's 53rd birthday tonight and Dave led the crowd in a sing along "Happy Birthday" early in the show. If you know Eddie's recent past, then every birthday is a small miracle in itself. Of course, he still lit up a couple of cigs to keep it real. What a great trip down memory lane and and let's hope these guys are staying motivated to create some 21st century old school Van Halen music next year.
