  Please note: This series is not being monetized in any way by me. If you see an ad, it&apos;s because it is being monetized by whoever owns Van Halen&apos;s music. I made this video purely out of love for Van Halen as a tribute. Seven months of my time to make this is nothing compared to all the happiness this band has brought me over the years. -Alan Berry<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s">00:00</a> - Intro to Episode 2 of Van Halen’s 1984 documentary<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=18">00:18</a> - The Jungle Studs<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=81">01:21</a> - Van Halen gets a call from Apple’s Steve Wozniak<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=108">01:48</a> - Short history of the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=152">02:32</a> - Offering Van Halen a gig at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=177">02:57</a> - Favored nation deal clause<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=195">03:15</a> - Tracking down David Lee Roth<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=212">03:32</a> - Booking David Bowie for the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=229">03:49</a> - The US Festival booker Barry Fey<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=262">04:22</a> - Having to match David Bowie’s payday<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=285">04:45</a> - Van Halen and the Guinness Book of World Records<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=316">05:16</a> - Van Halen’s publicist, Steve Mandel, saves the day<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=350">05:50</a> - Why Stevie Ray Vaughan did play on the Bowie tour<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=373">06:13</a> - Why John Mellencamp dropped off the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=388">06:28</a> - Van Halen learns they have more work than just playing the show<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=436">07:16</a> - A man was murdered at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=456">07:36</a> - Why the US Festival cost Van Halen so much money<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=496">08:16</a> - The Clash are not happy<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=531">08:51</a> - David Lee Roth pokes fun at the Clash<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=564">09:24</a> - The Clash’s petulant tirade<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=636">10:36</a> - Joe Strummer speaks highly of Eddie Van Halen<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=674">11:14</a> - Eddie Van Halen thinks this video sucks<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=688">11:28</a> - Heavy Metal Sunday at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=735">12:15</a> - Van Halen chills while everyone else weathers the heat<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=759">12:39</a> - The reason for the private party space at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=788">13:08</a> - Bash of 1983<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=801">13:21</a> - Van Halen’s rider at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=838">13:58</a> - Roth’s drugs are kicking in<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=855">14:15</a> - David Lee Roth has a press conference at the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=889">14:49</a> - David Lee Roth tries some new material<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=926">15:26</a> - David Lee Roth makes MTV’s Mark Goodman feel uncomfortable<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=969">16:09</a> - Van Halen plays a pre-recorded message for the US Festival crowd<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1026">17:06</a> - Van Halen plays the US Festival<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1092">18:12</a> - David Lee Roth being a bit unstable<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1107">18:27</a> - Van Halen lays down a clinic on how to play live<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1139">18:59</a> - One last shot at the Clash<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1208">20:08</a> - One of the highlights of Van Halen’s US Festival performance<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1263">21:03</a> - Van Halen proves they are atop the rock’s world of live performance<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ullfb2P_R9s&amp;t=1289">21:29</a> - Fans are disruptive going home

  Never will forget uS Festival 83. High school freshman. It was iconic then. And $20 was the price of every concert then. General admission! Front and center was anyone’s game if they got there early enough or fought their way to the front. My crew and I had mastered it. It was an golden era for concerts. I can’t believe ticket prices now. It’s beyond inflation. It’s disgusting.
