Other then the 6 songs that have appeared on various bootlegs:

http://www.vhboots.com/rocksbeerhall.html (Disc 2 Tracks 6-11)

Is there any other evidence of what a possible setlist from those shows opening for Bon Jovi was? Only six songs seems a bit short. An excerpt from a possible 2004 Sammy bio says Eddie would do a solo as well. If you take those songs plus Eddie's solo it would come to about 40 minutes. If it was just BJ and VH then VH should have been given at least 60 minutes, maybe.

I've looked on and off for years with no luck.

Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

I believe Thunder was also on that bill, so both bands probably only did 40-45 minutes. Van Halen is not an arena-filler in Europe, so they wouldn't have been given co-headlining status. Probably just one of those things management came up with and the band went along with it. I think Sammy talked about it negatively in an interview once, IIRC.

Did not know about Thunder. That makes sense then.
