Van Halen – Live Footage, 11/29/1986 at San Diego Sports Arena + Setup & Soundcheck

[date and venue wrong, it's SF (Cow Palace) at the end of the 5150 tour]

Better grab it while you can, copyright strike warnings have already been announced.

I believe the footage to be from November 3, 1986. A short trailer of it was released two years ago:

Nov 3rd was the final show of the tour (AFAIK), but Sammy says “See (some of) you tomorrow night” at the end of video, after the bow.

Was anyone able to grab these videos?
YouTube Downloader HD isn’t able to retrieve them.

Good catch ron, I haven’t come that far yet.
I just thought it might be from Nov 3 since the billboard at the beginning of the trailer referred to the Nov 3 show.
As far as I know VH didn’t play “Make It Last” on Nov 2 though, that’s at least what my audio recording from Nov 2 tells me. They did play “Pipeline” as their cover tune at the beginning of the encore. Could of course be that the date of that recording is wrong too…?

EDIT: The pumpkin on the stage could of course also indicate that this is the Oct 31 show…

Agreed. Wouldn’t (normally) make sense for the pumpkin to be there for the November dates.

Once again, I hope someone grabbed this one! I’m always late on this stuff now.

I was able to grab this before it was taken down ( I think I got it as 720). I’m kinda tied up today, but I can put it up tomorrow if anyone still needs it.

I put the removed video up on wetransfer. PM me for the link.
