wahwah : Unchained - UK Van Halen Tribute Band 27th June 2003 in Marlow
wahwah, myself and Geordie are going to see The Only Van Halen tribute band - Unchained - in the UK this weekend. jimihendrix asked us to record what we could of it. I remembered that I had some old footage...... (cue shimmery footage to indicate us travelling back in time)...
Back near the birth of this site, I was posting amongst a handful of Americans. At the time, I was trying to learn how to get a decent sound out of a Zoom 505 II pedal, and post the recordings onto the internet.
Anyway, a guy from the UK started posting, claiming to be in a UK Van Halen tribute band, called Unchained. He was the "Eddie" in the band, and they were playing that Friday, the 27th of June, 2003, in Marlow.
As you all know from my stripe obsession, I love Van Halen, so an excuse to hear the songs played live once again was not to be missed, so I thought I would go along to see what it would be like.
As you all have guessed, that fellow was no other than wahwah. What follows in the next few posts is an account of what I experienced on that night. This was when Geordie was the Dave Lee Roth. A first meeting I will never forget !
Please bare in mind that this venue was a "friends and family" gig, so the people in the crew didn't really know the songs which is why you can hear me singing most of the time. This fucking rocks though !!!
Enjoy !!!
