It certainly wasn't the Joel.  The Joel was built after Roth left VH.  Maybe it was the old WS memorial coliseum.  That place was falling apart by the late 70's  I saw Van Halen there, but I don't remember any incidents.  But then that was in my stoner days, so I might not be remembering everything.  :)

I witnessed live the attempted comeback of VH a few years ago in Greensboro... DLR was embarrassing.

I witnessed live a show with Sammy Hagar as the frontman and it was pretty damn good.

I witnessed live the first incarnation of VH, right after they changed their name from "Mammoth," sometime in 1973 and it was incredible.... although DLR couldn't sing back then, either.

I saw the original lineup for 1984 tour in Madison Square Garden, saw them probably 3 times with Hagar and also saw the reunion tour a few years ago in Greensboro and I have to agree that DLR sucked hard in Gboro. The 1984 tour was the best but followed closely by the 5150 tour with Hagar, they all seemed to like each other and had fun on stage.  Did Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll" as an encore and Michael Anthony sang lead for one verse and he nailed it, it was awesome.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
