Agree with everything. He's a troll.

This is dumb. It's like he thought it was opposite day. He can't be this stupid.

My pleasure! I'll also add that I'm not a fan of the sappy love song crap. Their radio-friendly hits were just that. They paid the bills. But there are some fantastic pure rock tunes on those albums that radio would never touch.

We can agree to disagree on this. Cheers!

That is a sweet setlist.

I refused to listen to 5150 for a solid year after it came out. I was PISSED that Dave was gone and wanted no part of Sammy. Buddies finally talked me into listening and I loved it as soon as I heard it. That said, I really liked 5150, OU812 and F.U.C.K. … after that, it was crap. At least I can say (opine, anyway) that the entire DLR-era VH discography is excellent. Can't say that about the Sammy-era.

David Lee Roth's voice and range were deceptively excellent. Yes, Sammy Hagar has a much bigger range, but in his day, David Lee Roth had some pipes and was a fantastic singer.

I agree. They were two entirely different bands with different sounds. DLR was perfect up to 84. Sammy was perfect after that.

I hope it's just a phase, too, man. We have a great year of baseball ahead of us.

Get Up from 5150 Black and Blue from OU812 Poundcake from F.U.C.K. Again ... I won't compare the two iterations. But those three songs kick absolute ass and cover three Van Hagar albums.

My red is so confident that he flashes Trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria Orange is young, full of daring But very unsteady for the first go round My yellow in this case is not so mellow In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from Giving my life to a rainbow like you I'm bold, bold as love Yeah I'm bold, bold as love I'm bold, bold as love Just ask the axis Yeah he knows, he knows everything I'm bold, bold as love

You're certainly not alone. I've spoken to plenty of people who feel the same way.

This makes me sad, Mark! I'm interested to know why you feel this way. I think "rock" is a huge umbrella (not as huge as the rock and roll hall of fame thinks it is) and I consider Cobain's contribution as being one who helped create a new era/generation of rock.

Too shay.

They had their biggest successes after "1984."

Nobody ever loved me like she does Oh, she does, yeah, she does And if somebody loved me like she do me Oh, she do me, yes, she does Don't let me down, don't let me down Don't let me down, don't let me down

Check out the "Diamond Dave," app.

And that's just one example showing why EVH is such a douchebag ...

You idiots can keep fighting over Roth and Hagar. We all know the real deal ... Gary Cherone ... blows them both away.

That's a record for you!

You'd think when he died, one of his family members would've just hit Ctrl-Z.

They only have one singer.

Who had the greatest season in college before him?

I love that Schobel is getting a lot of mentions in this thread. He should be the next one on the wall. Give me Schobel and Bob Woods.
