She's the Woman is the only one from Firestarter I noticed off the bat on the new disc. But I don't blame them for reworking some of this stuff. Firestarter had some good stuff on it. Dunno if anything else was used and re-named.

Also heard the Stay Frosty tune, and either Outta Space or The Trouble with Never. I may have to buy it.

Alot of them are re-done songs (or riffs, anyway) from that demo. In any event, the band sounds excellent and very tight. Guitar work is excellent. Alot of critics are trashing Dave for his "aging vocals" but Jesus Christ the guy is like 60 years old, of course he's not gonna sound like he did almost 30 years ago. Depends all on what you expected from them. If you wanted stuff with keyboards, ballads, along the Hagar vein you will be disappointed. If you wanted some good hard rock with a few new twists, I think they put out a very good album.
Having said that, and even though Eddie's kid does OK, I still think that Michael Anthony should be there.

Saw VH on Tuesday at MSG. Show was good. I give it a 6/10.

Eddie was spot on. He flawlessly executed every single song and note. I only wish the volume was cranked a little higher. I wanted my ears to be ringing.

Alex was solid.

David Lee did the job. But he had a special section of hard wood floor set up at the front of the stage so he could slip and slide all around. It was silly. Before the show, they lubed it up with some kind of powder. All I could think of was that sliding/bowling game you see in bars.

Musically, Wolfgang did what he needed to do. But, he looked out of place with the other legends on the stage. For a kid his age, he should be sporting long hair and acting like a maniac. He looks like a lazy old man on stage.

With no Michael Anthony, you feel it’s just not the complete package.

Set list was solid, but of course, you always want more. I feel they should have done three or four more songs. I didn’t like them closing with Jump, but I knew it was coming, as I read the review of their Chicago show a few days ago.

Bottom line: I checked off one seeing one of my favorites in action. I never saw VH with David Lee before.

Had some more friends go see their 2nd show last night at MSG.

If I was Eddie, I would be embarrassed that my kid was a big pussball.
He has no business on stage.

This is WAY outside the heavy metal genre, but too interesting to ignore.

This could possibly pave the way for other "reunions" assuming everyone has their price. Who wants to see Pantera with Dimebag Darrell back on guitar? Or Jimi Hendrix?
