Pretty much got booed off of the stage in San Diego....
Eat Us And Smile - The Originals
"I have a very belligerent enthusiasm or an enthusiastic belligerence. I’m an intellectual slut." - David Lee Roth
"We are part of the, not just the culture, but the geography. Van Halen music goes along with like fries with the burger." - David Lee Roth
Saw 'em open in Providence, St.Patty's Day, 1984.
Was before anybody even knew who they were...yeah, they got booed off the stage there as well, and played a REALLY short set (literally about half an hour)...
I remember a huge backdrop behind them, covering all of Van Halen's stage, sos nobody could get a peek at it before Halen came on, and the arena was close to full when Autograph started, but nobody was cheering for them or anything: all you could hear between songs was "You suck" and "HALEN!!"
They were okay as a band, I guess, far as the records I heard later. Very Halenesque, and I remember goofing on Blondes In Black Cars because the lyrics were so stupid (later read Mike Anthony sang background vocals on that)...
other thing I remember was Steve Lynch constantly saying in interviews that he had been tapping before he had even heard of Van Halen, I suppose so people wouldn't just write him off as an Eddie clone...
What else...lead vocalist Steve Plunkett was an ugly bastard, Keni Richards used to jog with Roth and looked retarded when he would hit the snare drum and pretend to hit his head with the other drumstick at the same time...and who can forget the bass playing and background vocals of Randy Rand (talk about a couple of parents who lacked imagination in the "let's name this kid" department).
Scramby eggs and bacon.
Do you guys want to hear something really fucking hilliarious?
The lead singer sings the Seventh Heaven Theme Song, No Shit!
Never got into them, Liked Turn up the Radio. I'm more of a Fan Quiet Riot when it comes to Early 80's Hair Metal One Hit Wonders.
Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
Damn commie bastards anyway

"If the American people had ever known the truth about what we (the BCE) have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." - Poppy Bush, 1992
