so, you didn't get to see Diamond Dave???

First time for me was probably Saturday, June 23, 1984 in the old Omaha Civic Auditorium

not sure, it was late 70s or early 80s

we were down in front - Eddie played an acoustical set sitting barefoot on the edge of the stage while the band took a break

Nope, sadly I didn't ever get to see him perform with Van Halen.  I was just too young, I was in 6th grade when 1984 came out and my folks weren't letting me go to rock concerts yet.

I did see his solo tour for the Skyscraper album, which was pretty great with Steve Vai on guitar.  It was also by far the loudest concert I've ever been to, my ears were ringing for days it seemed.

I saw that tour at Reunion Arena in Dallas. Poison opened up (and said Ahhhhhh!). 
Vai opened Dave's set with "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love". 

Didn't know the greatness I was witnessing then.

I saw Whitesnake with Great White as a double bill in 1988.
