This past week Dave and I watched this awesome special on the history channel about 80′s technology. The show had a segment on the US Festival. I have seen several videos over the years that contained footage from this festival, but never know what it was. Regardless, my van halen tip continued, this time more focused on David Lee Roth. They apparently got paid $1.5 million to play this night and diamond dave is drunk as shit. Rick Johnson told me about this performance years ago when we worked together and it was really funny to see the actual footage from it.
As I got digging around you tube for david lee roth interviews, I stumbled across this video. This is a really good song and it has all of the elements of 80′s metal madness….hair, rock climbing, and of course, Steve Vai.
