I’ve been entering song names and band names into Grok for fun. No other prompts, ‘just generate an image of _____”. The results are wild, some spot on, some bizarre, some just really cool. This is “Electric Eye”

Wow, what a way for to close out his “Best of All Worlds” tour in St. Louis. Playing in front of nearly 20,000 fans (a new record for the venue), Sammy, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani and Kenny Aronoff (filling in for Jason Bonham) blasted through 22 classics, including solo Sammy, Van Halen and even Joe’s 1987 masterpiece “Satch Boogie”.

At nearly 77, Sammy is in a select group of rockers who can still bring it. Sure, there are adjustments, Michael Anthony adds in some lead, even singing all of “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Love” while Sammy takes a break. And the new keyboard player Rai adds background vocals as well. But they do it LIVE, a lesson for so many younger bands who can’t seem to function without their MacBooks doing everything.

For my money, they could have replaced the David Lee Roth-era Van Halen songs with some (better) Sammy songs like Humans Being or Black and Blue, but I get it. It was a night of memories and anyone who caught this tour will remember it always. 🤘
