**Excellent SOUNDBOARD recording sourced from Japanese TV broadcast**

The very first Van Halen show I had ever attended was in Austin, Texas on September 30, 1995, near the conclusion of the Balance Tour.
Little did I know at the time, this was during the tail end of Van Halen’s 15+ year reign as America’s top rock band…

Fast forward to June of 1996, Sammy was out and David Lee Roth was back in (or so we thought).
Jump ahead to October of 1996, Diamond Dave was out too…
In the aftermath, Van Halen’s credibility was completely destroyed.
While the band briefly limped on with former Extreme vocalist, Gary Cherone, it would never be the same for the once mighty Van Halen.

Flashback to the spring of 1995, Van Halen had recently released “Balance”, their fourth consecutive #1 studio album.
The companion world tour kicked off in the spring break capital of the world; Pensacola, Florida, on March 11th.

The complete first show of the Balance tour was broadcast in Japan on the WOWOW television network.
Several highlights from the Pensacola performance were aired during MTV’s 1995 spring break coverage, as well.
It’s highly likely that “Random Shot” was a byproduct of the WOWOW broadcast.

While listening to “Random Shot”, please put the events of 1996 out of your mind, and recall a time when Van Halen were still THE dominant force in the hard rock world!
