no matter how great a guitarist is, its extremely difficult to immulate another guitarists style, especially EDDIE, and Joe Striani is doing an aMAZING job of immulatng EDDIe while still being himself, KUDOS DUDE!!
Get your tickets while you can. This band is insanely tight, in my top 3 concerts ever. They all did great and thank you Jesus that there was no backup tracks or auto tune
Damn well said! Seen them in Alpharetta GA . I feel sorry for anyone that didn’t go see tbis because it’s not Eddie or Alex I had best 2 hours in a very long time 🤟❤🤟
EVH! Eddie had more soul in his right hand and was MUCH more of a song writer than Satch. I like him alot but he can become very boring. It's just he is so technical it doesn't have room for any wow moments. Also, there are MANY, MANY guitarists on TH-cam that play Eddies part as good or BETTER than Satch does.
I think this is very easy for Satriani. Remember, Satriani did a much harder job in 1993 replacing Ritchie Blackmore in Deep Purple. Surprisingly, it was a huge success, and the audience loved him.
@@gfgranja I appreciate your comment. I really love EVH, even during my junior school prom night, I played the songs 'Panama' and 'Hot for Teacher' with my school band. I assume you are not a guitarist. Regarding Ritchie, it's not a technical issue, but the classic rock pentatonic playing style is very different from Satriani's style, and the fans are radical and fanatic. Every professional guitarist knows that EVH's and Joe's, Steve Vai's, and other 80's rock guitarists' techniques are very similar. Tapping, fast legato, harmonic picking, and others. Of course, EVH became the pioneer for 80's rock guitar techniques. If you survey professional guitarists, they will say that playing Joe Satriani's songs is more difficult than playing Van Halen's songs in terms of fingering, tempo, scales, chord progressions, and other complexities. You can find thousands of guitar tutorials on TH-cam if you just want to hear EVH solos exactly as they are recorded in the original songs.
@@Riri-xc9rz I am a guitarist, Satriani can play both EVH and Blackmore easily. I play Purple songs, they are easier for me than Van Halen songs. But hey, thats just me. Rock on brother!
I disagree. The man is 76 years old, and still sounds pretty darn good. Maybe not where he was at 30 years ago, but who is? The only comparable singer, in this age range IMO, is Steven Tyler. Satch is killing it as always as well as Anthony and Bonham. The keyboard player is good as well.
@@BradDavis1974 I agree...it just kind of hits me how much Sammy's voice has declined in just the last year or two..but we all knew it would eventually...
@@BradDavis1974except for the fact that Steven Tyler postponed the Aerosmith Peace Out tour for a year cuz he couldn't make it past 3 shows without wrecking his voice.
I don’t care what anyone else says, I think Sammy sounds great for his age. It seems to me like his breath control just isn’t there in this song. He can clearly still hit the notes. He just sounds out of breath for some reason.
Without Myles there shouldn’t be April Wine. I seen April Wine on The Nature of the Beast Tour back in 82 with Eddie Money. Still to this day if I’m asked what the best concert I’ve seen I mention Boston in 79 and April Wine and Eddie Money 2nd.
Satriani is not bad, he is contractually bound and cannot use Eddie's original tools and equipment. I think a steel panther Satchel would do the job better. This one plays great and has better EVH vibes.
Satchel is great indeed for VH tracks, but not as unique imo. I enjoy satriani rendition. Love to see him gets a kick at playing them as well... It feels Similar to Pantera today. Not the same but as enjoyable. Pro players... Smooth operators and all friends playing great tunes for the legacy. I hope
Nope. Satchel can play the earlier, simpler tunes, like all of those other players. Gilbert and Nuno, etc. No one else can touch post-1984 era stuff VH other than this line up. It took professor Satch to pull it off.
Do people not realize that satchel has a actual real name and is just a goofy stage persona? No one knows who the hell russ parish is unless they’re fans of paul gilbert, rob halford, and have seen the atomic punks during a certain period.

Emulate
check your caps lock key bro, LOL.
Joe kicked ass on the guitar solo on this song.
Does it make you feel superior to correct people’s post?? Come on….
It never hurts to spell correctly.
Get your tickets while you can. This band is insanely tight, in my top 3 concerts ever.

Damn well said! Seen them in Alpharetta GA . I feel sorry for anyone that didn’t go see tbis because it’s not Eddie or Alex I had best 2 hours in a very long time 🤟❤🤟
and live keyboards too
Bonham is smokin hot on this track.
Bonham sucks
And behind tempo on every other one
Joe kicked ass on the guitar solo too
You are deaf
Got that right, very funky foot.
Satch has such a gift and incredible tone !! What an absolute honor to Eddie, Fantastic guys !!
Satch's solo 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Bonham's Drums 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Mike's Bass and vocal 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 and the keyboard player 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Keys is Aussie Rai Thistlethwaite.
You forgot the 76 year old dude!
Dreams come true
I am so looking forward to seeing this show on August 19th in Los Angeles. Will be my 91st Sammy show since 1975
These guys have an average age of 68 and they are still tight and rocking. Great gathering
Old white guys can still do it. 😉
That is sick at 80, so happy for Sammy and Michael ❤
Other bands pay attention, if you can't do it anymore don't.
Satch is the best! Nobody can do it better.
EVH! Eddie had more soul in his right hand and was MUCH more of a song writer than Satch. I like him alot but he can become very boring. It's just he is so technical it doesn't have room for any wow moments. Also, there are MANY, MANY guitarists on TH-cam that play Eddies part as good or BETTER than Satch does.
Love both…Joe has 20 albums, played with all kinds of bands, uncounted performances, and seems to be on another level compared to EDV!
@@realscience948 uuhhh no 🤣
I think Satch sounds F’n great! I’m glad these guys are out honoring Eddie.
@@ChazinFl1 but they have done nothing of their own.
Happy to see Rai Thistlethwayte up there. So very cool.
They sound as tight as the original version. RIP EVH!! Joe's got you covered for now.
Sammy always brings it! And everyone in his show is a star!
Satriani sounds fantastic
Whoooeee!!! All players nailing it!!!👏👏👏
CHILLS!!! JUST CHILLS!!!
Same here. 🔥
Agree 🤘🔥
This is so good! This song brings so many great memories!❤❤❤
Satch is a legend, amazing work!
My favorite song next to "Dreams"!!! It helped me back when things were not so great for me!!! Plus I played when i used to work out!!!
When I grow up and turn 80, I want to be Sammy Hagar.
Gotta give it up to Joe for getting that tone!
Not even close
Love it!!!!! Fantastic job!! Please come to Edmonton so I can see your show🎸🎼
Rai is killing it!
I thought that looked like him. What else is he involved in outside of Knower?
@@BockwinkleB Not sure, but I'll be checking out his catalogue!
Phoenix August 20th!!! Joe's tone and playing are awesome. One of my favorite songs written by Eddie and Sammy.
STILL can't believe he's gone!!!!
Man all members crushing it! Sammy for 76 does admirable!
If I could only learn one solo on guitar it would be this one.
Awesome Joe satanri has the most pressure on him but did a awesome job 🤟🏻
I think this is very easy for Satriani. Remember, Satriani did a much harder job in 1993 replacing Ritchie Blackmore in Deep Purple. Surprisingly, it was a huge success, and the audience loved him.
@@Riri-xc9rz I love Purple and Blackmore, but Eddie's guitar parts (most of it )are much harder than Ritchie's

@@gfgranja Incorrect.
Might I ask what type camera you used?? The quality is awesome, you did a great job!! I'm seeing them next week and want to record myself.
GO RAI! Doing us Aussies proud.
Timeless amazing song...
Sold my birthday tickets hotel and flight to pay bills. Damn this economy!! Love you Sammy and crew!!
Bidennomics
@@johnnyeskew4703 3 teenagers feels like I'm spending $100 a day on groceries. Cheers🇺🇸 🍻🇺🇸
was not expecting how awesome this turned out.
I think Eddie would be very happy to see Satriani filling-in for him, here.
Fantastic!
I LOVE SAMMY. NEVER LIKED VAN HALEN UNTIL HE BECAME FRONT MAN! HIS SHOWS STILL KICK AZZ🎉❤
People still figuring out how fucking good Jason Bonham is. I’ve seen him live 4 times and every time he seems better than the last.
WooHoo! Knowing Tampa Bay is loving this thunderously.........................
If I could learn to play on one solo on guitar it would be this one.
These videos are great thanks!
And this is why I love to ROCK!!!!!
Joe is flawless!!!! Good Lord!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Yeah baby! Will see the boys in August at the Fabulous Forum in LA!
Sammy def sounds sick or something really brings the song down. Satriani and bonham fantastic
I disagree. The man is 76 years old, and still sounds pretty darn good. Maybe not where he was at 30 years ago, but who is? The only comparable singer, in this age range IMO, is Steven Tyler. Satch is killing it as always as well as Anthony and Bonham. The keyboard player is good as well.
Mikey sounds fantastic as well..he definitely can hit much higher than Sammy at this point...
@@BradDavis1974 I agree...it just kind of hits me how much Sammy's voice has declined in just the last year or two..but we all knew it would eventually...
He's 76 years old. He's doing his best and doesn't want to strain his voice too much and not be able to sing well for the rest of the tour.
@@BradDavis1974except for the fact that Steven Tyler postponed the Aerosmith Peace Out tour for a year cuz he couldn't make it past 3 shows without wrecking his voice.
Joe’s solo as good as Eddie’s in this one.
DAD IS SMILING AND APPRECIATES YOU JASON!!!🎼😎🙏💕🥁
I would like to see more tribute to Van Halen , I like that Jason has a similar set to Alex. Would like to see Eddies guitar being played.
❤
“No mom,I don’t wanna go to these damn piano lessons. Eddie Van Halen would never use keyboards.” 😂😂
Meanwhile Eddie trained in classical piano
Satch rocks, clean player, perfect
Thistlewood hahahaha!! That would have put me right off!!
Sounds fkn amazing!
Joe was the only guy to get for this gig, plus the other guys are pretty good too 😂
4:09 Sach looking up and smiling.... At ED perhaps?
I wish someone would isolate video of Bonham for these shows. Just like Alex he’s forgotten. That’ll happen when you’re so solid.
Youngs james labree on keyboard ?
Awesome!
Really good to hear that sound!
Toronto is soooo Pumped for this show!
Bravo Joe !
Big ass Fender bass cabinets!
My man Joe kills it. Yea yea
Joe new amp?
Sounds LIKE 🏈 TIME SAM HAVE COUGH 😷 DROP 💧😂🎉
This is a super hard band to emulate. They are soing pretty good for their age. The hardest guitar player in the world to emulate I would imagine.
Just remember 76 years old no matter how you cut it voice will change but not bad red rocker !
Well the band sounds fantastic and the bass player back up vocals. But looks like Sammy can barely keep up singing some of the older stuff. Bummer
4:28 Cannonmouth volume level in full effect on that Mic, Sammy. 😂 they turn that way down cuz of how loud Mikey is.
Obrigado pelos vídeos amigo
🇨🇦👽🎸👍🏼
No tracks, No Vince Neil's Laptop ....Just straight ahead artistry!!! Looking forward to Saratoga Springs on Monday!!!👍👍👍👍😃😃😃
SAMMY DA MAN! 🎸🎸🎸🎸
GOOD LORD! Band is TIGHT!
Nice to see the addition of a keyboard player. Just say no to backing tracks
Satriani&Bohnam rules
The keyboardist needs recognition
Aussie Rai Thistlewaite from Thirsty Work amazing singer as well
Thirsty Merc sorry
Something's wrong with Sammy...sounds weak all of a sudden. Hope he's healthy
very weak compared to the last live shows I saw(recorded of course..sadly I haven't seen them live myself)...
I would pay for that, Joe is lights out!!
Miss Andols.
I don’t care what anyone else says, I think Sammy sounds great for his age. It seems to me like his breath control just isn’t there in this song. He can clearly still hit the notes. He just sounds out of breath for some reason.
Great times in Rock history.
Jason is spot on
Close your eyes and you might think it was Alex. Great job Jason! ❤
Without Myles there shouldn’t be April Wine. I seen April Wine on The Nature of the Beast Tour back in 82 with Eddie Money. Still to this day if I’m asked what the best concert I’ve seen I mention Boston in 79 and April Wine and Eddie Money 2nd.
Tell me why can't Axl singing as good as Sammy here?
Anymore..
I see a future in these guys.
How can a 76 yr old hit those notes?
He can’t. Plus they tune down and he still has issues.
@@GeorgeZimmermen Says the person who withstood voiceless Dave on three consecutive reunion tours.
Ditto..His singing really took from these songs..The rest of the band was great..Always liked Sammy but either he's sick or just done.
That was perfect Joe! As a guitar player of 40 years I wouldn’t know😂
I thought the bass kick drums had a pic of Manson on em' at first glance...
Proof Michael isn’t singing. Sammy sang into his mic and nothing came out. Hahaha. Someone else is singing for him. 😄
Everyone is good except Sammy lol
Sammy is a legend for doing it for so long, I feel bad criticizing him, but he is the weakest link in this lineup.
316th like...right here, right now =\//-/=
Play it in the original key please. Or dont at all.
Sammy sounds worse than axel
Sammy is a great front man but he is struggling a little bit. Voice isn’t same as it used to be and it’s a very hard song to sing.
This is a better band than van halen.
Pretty damn good!!!!
Oh shit, dad has his hat on backwards... hah
What happened to Vic. Joes great but Vic's good too
This is Sammy's other band called chickenfoot. That's why Joe is playing
@@InfamousCrimeLocationsChad Smith is missing on drums so it’s not Chickenfoot
@Bernz66 Ahh fair enough.

So not the same
Sammy sounds terrible
