DLR on the Walk of Fame in the Netherlands

[MadCat]

Back in the 2007 i was in the Netherlands, the homeland of Van Halens.
While walking in the central part of the Rotterdam i suddenly saw the Walk of Fame under my feet... And there was the footprint of Dave there...
Of course i took the photo, see in the attachments...
And I wonder if there are some signs of respect for Eddie and Alex in their home country...))

It's interesting you are saying you are in Russia.

At the DDLR site I seem to remember arguing with a moderator who wanted to just automatically just ban everyone with Russian ip addresses because of the amount of spam and crap that comes from there.

I always said one day a genuine poster might appear from there...

[twonabomber]

but none of the ones i wanted to ban had a legible name like this guy does.

[Seshmeister]

Apologize and admit I am always right about everything!

[FORD]

And yes, he's actually in Russia.

[twonabomber]

Apologize and admit I am always right about everything!

never!

1. The Walk of Fame there really quiet good - i was amazed a bit...
2. Yeah, i'm actually from Russia...
3. I was registered once at DDLR.com and one day (my nick btw was the same), when i've tried to enter, its just said that my ip wasn't suitable...(

"jane" fromclassicvh gave me a link
Walk of Fame - Europe

[Antman]

So Dave has a plaque but not Ed & Al???

[MadCat]

Sure... I doubt that Van Halens refused to get the attention and the star in their last visit to Holland))
Btw, interesting when it was? 1998 or when?

[BITEYOASS]

I think DLR has played the Netherlands more often during his solo career, then Van Hagar did at the same time. Hence why the Van Halen brothers are not on the same level of fame as Diamond Davis is over in Holland.

It was when ALAE came out. Dave on his promotour through Europe.
The walk was moved to Rotterdam, first it was in Scheveningen.

Your absolutely right. The last time Van Halen was here they were the openingact of...........Bon Jovi!
