The holy grail. Pro-shot Van Halen at the peak of greatness. The infamous 1981 Oakland shows where Van Halen filmed their 3 classic music videos from Fair Warning. We can only dream that the full show is still sitting around waiting for a proper release. Although most info and what Eddie has said is: only these 3 songs were filmed.
I believe these videos first aired on Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert (Apr 3, 1982) with David Lee Roth interview.
