Eagle Flashback, Metro Centre Aug 3rd 1982 – Van Halen (Set List)

With the passing of the legendary Eddie Van Halen on Tuesday, let's flashback to August 3rd 1982 when the Mighty VH rocked Rockford! I'm sure a bunch of you went to one of these, if not all of these shows. "Diver Down" was just released in April on 1982 and just a few months later then were in town.
