Van Halen - Live in Fresno 1978

I just stumbled onto this on YouTube.
This is fantastic. Eddie was on fire.
There are a few stills in the first couple of minutes & then it's mostly uninterrupted footage.

They were on fire, I really wish I was old enough to see them in there 1st few years. I love how his Marshalls are just stacked on the side of the stage.

Same here man, I was 6........
I feel extremely fortunate to have gotten to grow up in such a rich & diverse musical era.

I was 8, and even when I was old enough there was no-one that would have taken me to concerts. But yea im still glad I grew up in the years I did.

Yes, saw this yesterday. Eddie, even in this day of technical mastery was godlike. There is a reason he is referred to as “King Edward”. Just jaw dropping……

I watching this the other night. They were so energized and even Dave was hitting it. Eddie was really something totally new. I was 13 and I remember my older brother was going to to see this new Van Halen band. I was right on the cusp of having money and getting him to take me to shows. Unfortunately not this yet.

I also remember my brother and his friends having a couple cases of Schlitz Malt Liquor (The Bull) they were already well into before even leaving. Those were the days…

Lucky enough to have seen that tour twice.
The guy who posted the updated video did a great job with the editing.

The universe is criminal for introducing VH to the world before 4k was invented.

I'm old enough - and have the Tinnitus to prove I was there. A special time indeed.
