van halen kicks ass

they made me proud to have been "the van halen" kid back in high school. i wonder where that jean jacket with the van halen patch is now?

so i saw them at the staples center earlier.

they fucking rocked.

i love the unpretentiousness (is that even close to a real word?) of sammy hagar. he's just a fucking goofball having fun, and he knows it. and he makes a damn fine tequila.

and eddie, man, the reason i picked up a guitar in the first place.
at one point during his solo, my thoughts wandered to the following place:
"i loved this slow blusey thing in live without a net, didnt he actually record this on an album later and dedicate it to his son? what was his sons name? wolfgang, how could i forget that? shit, that kid probably isn't a kid anymore, huh? i wonder how old he is now? i wond... is that actually him out there playing guitar with his dad? what the fuck?"
he came out and jammed with his dad.

michael anthony sang a lot, including all of 'somebody get me a doctor'. (which is on right now)
and played his jack daniels bass.

and alex.
sorry, misters peart, copeland, and moon, but it goes a little something like this:
bonham---> van halen ---> grohl

so it's 12:30 at night, i'm drunk and listening to van halen II. not the first time, probably won't be the last time.

oh yeah, i have DSL and a nice new computer at home now. I've never blogged from home before (except for the occassional saturday morning picture post)

I can now.

I am now.

y'all are fucked.

peace.

and light up the sky...
