After the announcement I was expecting something significantly more unfinished. That's a very good cover. The voice could be a tad louder, but that's probably more due to the phone microphone than the actual sound in the venue.

Authentic is right. This guy could have easily gotten by riding his father's coattails and just being a jerk and being lazy. Instead, he stepped up and decided to carry on his father's legacy, just in his own way. While I am personally not a fan of MWVH's music- and I am *NOT* saying that it's bad AT ALL, it's just not my personal thing- I absolutely respect these guys to their very core. This videos proves that they only care about the music, being there for the moment, for the crowd, for one another, and for spreading joy. They're doing all the right things and I hope they'll always be known for just that.
I just became a fan of Mammoth WVH, would love to see them live! 🤘RIP Taylor
He sounds just like Dave on vocals! 🤯
Just blown away of the talent of this man!!!
That was good and fitting. Wolfie is such a good kid.
if I cant watch this without tears streaming down my face, I just cant imagine how Dave and the boys are feeling, so devastated but a fantastic cover to a musical legend thanks Wolfgang wvh
Taylor would be proud! Those drums were phenomenal! These guys are rediculously talented.
You know damn well Eddie & Taylor are looking down smiling 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼 they’re probably jamming right now 🥁🎸😊
It couldn't mean any more than it does coming from you Wolf. Thank you.
As a foos fan this is one of the most perfect tributes for an amazing man who bought me many years of joy thankyou for this.
He says “excuse the rough edges” and then brings me to tears.
First generation of family musicians was epic. This generation is indescribable. Incredible.
You nailed it wolfie, Taylor would be very proud...

This song has always been extremely emotional for me. The drums and the overall feeling are very moving, and it stirs actual emotions in my head that I can't explain. But, as lame and trite as I know this sounds, it often brings me to tears. It's just very heavy for me, That being said, I never wanted to hear it covered by anyone else, because I was worried that they'd ruin it. Then I saw this. This cover is, in my opinion, as perfect and just mind blowing as any cover of a once in a lifetime song can be. It was a beautiful dedication to Taylor, and these guys played it with such finesse and so much great respect to the original that it hit me the same as if I heard it for the first time. Knowing the reason behind it had me in tears. This is what music is all about. The life, the love, the good times and the bad.
THAT 👏🏼 WAS 👏🏼 PHENOMENAL 👏🏼!!!! Like seriously amazing!! This is the first time I have heard you guys but this song has been one of my top 10 for over 20 years and you guys absolutely killed it. Beautiful tribute. Taylor and your father would be so proud.
I love seeing all these tributes to Taylor. Most of these bad ass drummers grew up listening to Taylor and playing these songs in their garages. Nicely played. Thank you Mammoth Van Halen for being a class act. Rip Taylor the drummer I've seen most in my life. I'm lucky to have seen him play many many times. Drove 700 miles once.
Great performance of this song! And love Wolf and his band! Didn’t know he came to Boston! Will have to be on the lookout for future shows. 🎶🎸❤️
