    anyone remember dave's "joe" story?

    . . . i was listening to a boot of a '79 performance in seattle, wa and in the breakdown of bottoms up! dave tells this wicked story of how he and al were playing poker in their hotel room after a show one night with a couple of crew members. when dave and al got up to leave with their winnings and go for a drink the other players wouldn't let them take their 85 bucks. so dave went into another room to get joe and and he came back a shotgun and said: "MOTHERFUCKERS, THIS IS JOE!!!"

    I would suggest you lose the link. We do not take spammers lightly here. Even if it is 'promoting' your own page.

    If you are here for a few months, cuntribute to this site, and gain some respect from peeps around here, then perhaps you can let slide you have a site, and if it has anything of value to anyone here, it might not gain any negative attention.

    But posting a link to any site in your posts, when you only have SEVEN currently, is asking for trouble.

    Welcome to the site.

    The rest is up to you.

    . . . are these negative statements "official" statements from the david lee roth organization?

    . . . if so, you're way out of line to communicate with a long term david lee roth fan in such a demeaning way. i mean, i've been on board dlr/vh since, oh i don't, '81 or something. it's only been, like, 30 years? so it's not like i'm a johnny-come-lately . . .

    . . . so i come on this awesome board and HAWK the david lee roth BRAND and how cool dave was back in '79 when he sounded like a completely different character, like some cali surfer dude, telling his hilarious joe story and i get accused of hawking -- MY WEBSITE????

    . . . are the operators of this board FRIENDS of david lee roth? if so, ACT LIKE IT THEN. seems like you hate him. why else would you crap on a long-time dlr fan? that's the problem with many of these fan sites. instead of solidifying the brand you get assholes who say dumb things and turn people off the artist in question . . .

    . . . i bring up a cool tidbit about early dave and instead of celebrating it the operators of the board say this: who gives a rat's ass about the joe story, let's just shit on the dave fan and turn him off david lee roth forever . . .

    . . . spot check. you fail . . .

    The reason has nothing to do with your loyalty as a DLR supporter. The truth is, we hate Canadians. Even the Canadians here will tell you they hate Canadians. Relax, it's nothing personal.

    Is it that bad ? I use to post at DDLR forums, this is my first post here.

    Shouldn't people want new members on this forum or has Roth Army become secret decoder ring required to post ?

    Oh Joe....

    A couple things....

    1. As I said, if you keep your posts to DLR/VH matters, you're more than welcome as anyone else here (ok, most everyone)... The only thing we're asking is to stop providing a link back to your website, which has nothing to do with VH.... Many, many of us here have other websites that we're affiliated with, whether it's music, sports, military, etc...

    Here's what you can do: In your User CP, go to "Edit Your Details"... Then in the middle of the page you'll see an entry for "Home Page URL"... Put your website's URL there, and all's well....

    2. If you think that your "This is Joe" story is some sort of revelation in the VH message board community, then you've been drunk on Labatt's too long... This board has been around 10 fucking years, broham.... EVERY conceivable DLR/VH topic on the face of the earth has been painstakingly discussed, TIME and TIME and TIME again.... So if you think you're actually bringing up "fresh" topics on this board or any other VH board, think again... By the way, I bought the Seattle '79 bootleg album drunk off my ass in a Seoul, Korea bar in 1985 with a crisp $50 bill....

    So put your website in the section I described, and all's well....

    Not at all that way. You are very welcome here. You seem like a poster with some humor. That other knucklehead got an attitude right out of the gate when he/she was warned about posting a link to his forum. I've been a fan for 27 years too but i had sense enough not to come on here when i joined and post a link to another website, much less cop an attitude and go into a lecture when a mod mentioned it.

    . . . <- What the fuck is that?

    . . . <- Looks like online Morse code.

    . . . <- Whatever that is, it seems to have a negative effect on proper punctuation and capitalization in the post quoted above.

    My three cents?

    1. Nobody cares.

    2. Fuck the fuck off.

    3. Pseudo savvy outrage is the new sucking big green donkey dicks.

    Come on, you guys...a new fellow joined the site. Rather than being an upright individual and owning up to the fact that he'd indeed fucked-up, he chose to offer the somewhat entitled attitude that seems to be prevalent upon newbie-fucks...his shit does not stink.

    Of course I await his contributions to the site. The fellow may turn out to be an asset. Naturally, I might be off by two letters.

    Jaysus. VA only asked you to stop posting a fucking link to your shitty website noone fucking cares about. He even said he liked your post.

    Seems like you've got problems, buddy... real big MENTAL problems... and we're not here to help you with them.

    Don't try to piss on our leg and tell us it's raining... you had 2 games going with your post. Cool story... thank you very much. Shameless plug for your website... try not to be so subtle. A quiet little link in your sig with no fancy bold text... odds are no one would have noticed. Your approach... pink elephants stand out, plus it's always huntin season here.

    . . . what's the big deal?

    . . . whatever . . .

    I'm sure I speak for everyone here, boy do we feel stupid.... You really got us....

    What was your name back then ??

    By the way, the forums weren't here until '99, but that's OK, because we're suckers....

    Wow, someone was able to create an identity when there is nothing but your own honor that holds your ID. I can't believe you was able to accomplish that task, Joe.
    That is amazing. We are SO in awe.
    To put it simply, we need to worry a lot less about how to communicate our actions and much more about what our actions communicate.

    . . . whatever . . .
    This isn't the same forum you're thinking of back then, but most of us here are the same posters from those sites.

    We do have a welcome forum for this kinda post though.. but welcome onboard anyways!
