Really? I was into both of them when they first started in late 70's. Then big into both until mid-80's. Got into a funk phase. Tuned out VH during the Sammy days mostly...and didn't follow AS in that era either. Do have both's greatest hits CD's on the ipod.

Probably so! I'm 49.

I can remember Van Halen coming to Nashville as the opening act for Black Sabbath. I think that was around Jan of 1979.

I saw Aerosmith in Jan 1978 in concert in Nashville. They were drunk out of their mind. Quit halfway through songs and stuff. Terrible. The big rumor at that time was that was going to be their final tour because S. Tyler had throat cancer. Here they are going strong 35 years later. Never would have guessed that one.

How old are you OE?

Summer Jam 77' in KC had VH 3rd on bill of 5 bands opening for Steve Miller Band. Great show.

Seen Aerosmith and VH 3 times. My fave would have to be Aerosmith. DLR was an amazing showman though. I never saw VH with Sammy though. 51 year old here.

I liked Sammy with Montrose. I wore out their debut cassette more than once.

Yeah, was that the 'I can't drive 55' bunch? I remember having some Sammy before he joined VH. Might of been on an 8-tape...lol!

Tyler was definitely a better singer than Diamond Dave. But Eddie was better on lead guitar than Joe Perry. Alex was underated on drums for VH. I probably lean just a hair toward Aerosmith as well but it is very close. They both had some serious drug problems. In particular, I never thought Aerosmith would recover from some bad bad bad drug problems there around 1980.

I read a long time ago that back in the day Joe Perry snubbed Eddie in the press (as did so many guitarists back then) and it pissed off Eddie, so when someone asked Eddie in an interview his thoughts on Joe Perry he stated, "he plays guitar like a retarded girl with a broken arm."

Roth was better with VH, but I do enjoy going to Hagar's bar, Cabo Wabo.
