New York, June 22: Rock star David Lee Roth devised a clever way to satisfy his voracious craving for sex during his Van Halen days.
The American rock vocalist distributed generous cash rewards to staffers who brought in the hottest girls with them, according to a new, unofficial bio of the platinum-selling band, reports the New York Post.
Author Ian Christe writes in 'Everybody Wants Some: The Van Halen Saga,' that Roth developed a "streamlined" scheme of "ordering sex at shows by handing out laminated backstage passes to the security staff, each marked with their initials."
"Then, from the stage, [Roth would call] out, 'Blonde, pink top, sector A-4,' identifying the girls he wanted to see after the show. Whatever crew member's name Dave saw flapping around the girl's neck backstage at the end of the night would get a $100 bonus at breakfast the next morning. As far as intimacy went, it was a little like the invention of the drive-through window at McDonald's, but the morale of tour staff remained high," Ian Christe adds.
Diamond Dave also kept a photo album of provoking Polaroids that showed many of the band's kinky groupies.
"[It] featured sights like a backward-leaning naked girl being used as a coffee table, a lit cigarette in her [private parts]," Christe writes.
But eventually Roth, after a number of break-ups and reunions with the band, came out "frustrated by the role of sex god," according to the book.
"He routinely vented some [bleep]ed-up male sexuality, inviting pretty soccer moms from the front row for a drink from his trademark Jack Daniel's bottle and then shaking the stage prop at groin level while [spraying] about a quart of whiskey on [their] heads," Christe writes.
"Who knows how many times he had enacted the same scene backstage with willing participants during his halcyon days, but now his soaking of loyal admirers revealed the impotent anger of an aging Adonis," he adds.
In the meantime, rumours that Roth and the band may re-unite once more continue to make rounds.
