Lets merge this with the OU812 Tour. We can keep them seperate, but on the same page. One above the other.(The Elfoid (talk) 14:05, 13 December 2007 (UTC))Reply

I removed the bit about this being the first time Hagar played acoustic on a Van Halen tour. It's simply not true. He regularly played either "Give to Live" or "Eagles Fly" solo acoustic on the 1986-5150 tour. This can be seen on the "Live Without a NEt" video, where he plays "Eagles Fly" and IIRC mentions he played another song the night before. (Personally I saw him play "Eagles Fly" at a show, and know folks who saw him play "Give to Live", but the video is a good, third-part offical source.)

Wow, some definite inaccuracy in this article; I believe Rolling Stone reported that earlier in the tour there was low attendance(Pittsburgh comes to mind) and that Dokken was booed off the stage for playing too many "power ballads"; by the time they got to SF, they had removed all ballads from their setlist and let George Lynch shred. The info about the SF setlists is inaccurate; all of the bands played their full set; SF was originally scheduled for 2 days but was changed to a single show, which was/close to a sellout; the fans did the "wave" during the VH set; I also remember Alex VH's mindless revolving set of identical drum kits employed during his solo wherein he played for a bit on the 1st kit, then stood and backed up a few feet while the next kit revolved in place. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.200.0.112 (talk) 23:29, 7 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Almost everything in this article is unsourced. I was at the Candlestick show, and each band played a full set. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.221.231.194 (talk) 23:20, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
