Van Halen was a band that played some of the soundtracks of my childhood, and not always by choice, either. So, shooting them was a cool opportunity, despite the fact that they made us shoot from the soundboard area, a mile away. Thank goodness for long lenses and cropping abilities! I am still impressed by David Lee Roth’s ability to high kick at his age!
Kool and the Gang opened the show, and I was glad to have seen them once. He had quite the cast around him, too; the stage was full.
