DAVE in Nov 17th ROLLING STONE

**Matt White** · 11-07-2005, 12:06 PM

Small article on STERN leaving for pay radio....

"On January 3rd, former VAN HALEN singer DAVID LEE ROTH will take over for Stern's WXRK-FM morning show...."

The article is about the loss of FM ROCK stations to the "Talk-radio" format.

"Roth will be heard on seven stations, mostly on the east coast..."

"Roth, who has voluteering as an emergency medical technician in New York since last November, "auditioned" for the job with a three-hour on-the-air stint one night this year in L.A."

"Adam Carolla calls the former VAN HALEN frontman, "...sort of nutty, narcissistic, but interesting and potentially funny."

They need to push DAVE in every mainstream publication....give people a chance to get hip to him...he'll handle the rest. I'm betting he KICKS ASS at this gig.

Thank you Matt for the news. At least that's one copy I'll buy!

**bantonelli** · 11-07-2005, 12:59 PM

What's this that Adam Carolla thinks DLR is "potentially" funny?

DLR will give Mr. Snorefest a huge rating surprise..........

Sleep on that one Carolla!

**Shaun Ponsonby** · 11-07-2005, 03:47 PM

The advantage of Roth taking over Stern is that he is gonna get a bit more publicity.

**ELVIS** · 11-07-2005, 03:54 PM

What if Dave tanks ??

guwapo_rocker · 11-07-2005, 03:54 PM

I think the shock jock Stern is in for a shock himself

when he moves to satellite.

That station is losing huge money and I don't think Stern will

save it.

Dave will surprise people.

:p

**MightyVanAaron** · 11-08-2005, 12:29 AM

Right on Bro. We've already seen Adam Carolla's act, he's called Gilbert Gottfried.

**Hardrock69** · 11-08-2005, 12:33 AM

Not only Rolling Stone, but the current issue of Billboard magazine:

From the limited work I heard from Dave's fill-in gig for that New England station, he was very good. High energy, high intelligence, very good with callers...not that you'd expect anything else. He should be great, though replacing Howard Stern is an extremely unenviable task.

**wrigleyvillbabe** · 11-08-2005, 10:33 AM

Personally I like howard, luv Dave, but Howard's show is going to be very different than what he's doing now. His whole platform for the last how many years has been "shock" or what will he do next to push the envelope. He can't really ride his rebel persona anymore because he has no regulators, no FCC to worry about. His initial success was based on how far he could push things until he got fined or regulated. I think he's going to lose some of that edge because he will be able to do and say whatever he wants without getting caught.
I can't wait til Dave hits the airways in January. He'll do a great job. It blows that he's not in Chicago though, we have that fucking no-name Rover.
What are your thoughts on this? I'm interested to hear how you think Howard will do without regulation...

he still been so georgeous, maybe.....

**Matt White** · 11-08-2005, 10:46 AM

I think Stern lost a ton of credibility when he split from his wife...and refused to talk about it on air....
Many longtime listeners knew he was a pansy who couldn't "walk the walk"............

DAVE will do exceptionally well in this format......

**fe_lung** · 11-08-2005, 10:48 AM

Same picture and a short note is in Newsweek as well.

**Bootyac** · 11-08-2005, 05:21 PM

For those of us that wont get to listen to Dave..

Why dont Roth Army put a streaming link for us to listen to him and/or host archived shows?

somehow I got the feeling he might...because it doesn't seem to be that easy to follow up stern...

if so...he'll get some guys and will be somewhere out there...opening with hot for teacher and closing with jump...and we'll discuss it...speculate...start hair threads...bash hagar...and have "fab-elvis-rikk-army"-wars...no big deal

**ritetoolforjob** · 11-08-2005, 08:09 PM

with a face made for radio....if dave tanks he'll be okay, he has lots of experience with that.

**spmusicplyr** · 11-08-2005, 09:29 PM

hey man dave looks pretty young in that pic next to howard stern.... maybe its because his hair is longer and highlighted...its too short now and exaggerates his forehead....

looks good though.... i think the caption for that pic would be

"THAT WAS THE WORST BOX I'VE EVER EATEN!"

**Matt White** · 11-09-2005, 06:59 PM

Only time will tell....

**NATEDOG001976** · 11-10-2005, 07:54 AM

Nice, but that mag really sucks. Rolling Store are a bunch of fuckers that love Justin Timberlake and crap like that.

**Matt White** · 11-11-2005, 06:44 PM

Seeing DAVE in a MAJOR music publication, that is read by millions, is always a plus.

Besides...I'm sure the average 10-16 year old that reads it hasn't been exposed to the DIAMOND ONE enough.......

Excellent point. It will be hard for him to shock people when he can say anything.

I think pretty quickly, everyone will be like "yeah...and...."

*yawn*

"lets see what Roth is saying"

thats a risk he is willing to take which makes him very cool in my book

Roth is all about taking risks and challenging himself

I love that!

guwapo_rocker · 11-11-2005, 09:00 PM

If Dave tanks, it's back to touring.

Exactly DG...............

DAVE never plays it safe.............

One more thing the Sisters hate about him..............

**rustoffa** · 11-11-2005, 09:49 PM

Call me crazy, but it'll probably be a bit of a departure from the shock-jock format.

I'm thinking Paul Harvey gone stream of consciousness, followed with "any thoughts?"

IMO, he needs to take alot of calls, calls regarding the subject matter of whatever. Screening will be a nightmare, but they have to connect with the INITIAL listeners.

From the low to highbrow, there's no shortage of folks that want to pontificate with the Toastmaster General.

There is also NO shortage of HIGH PROFILE celebrities that will do that show....make no mistake.

I'm sure a braintrust of (Infinity) motherfuckers are working extremely hard on overthinking a simple premise.

We'll see.....I can't wait.

That's the fucking scary part!!!

Dave has proven he can handle the callers, just let it happen.
