Obviously alot of thought went into this album. Maybe thats why it took so long. But i believe it's gonna blow our socks off!!
There is only one David Lee Roth!!

"Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands. And still to this day is. It's an attitude. I think it's a spirit more than anything else is."
I wish every person who went into a tattoo studio was forced to listen to this, especially the part about how it does and should hurt. I guarantee you there would be far less shitty ink. Dave's brilliant, as always.

Three words. WE WERE THERE.
Unfuckingbelievable!!! This song IS a very good tune and ya know what? It just got better. It has a little more meaning. Listening to Dave is always an incredible experience, but through the years it has sounded like he is speaking to a much larger audience. That clip felt like a personal sit down with a legend. Yep, the song got a little better because I can feel it just a little more. Van Halen is making up for lost time and boy does it feel good.
Roth is getting to that age...I think...where this part of what he does is Paramount...combine that with the fact that he did it anyways...and likely the fact that he's been bottled up over the past five years, and you have a guy that is likely dying to tell his story...
He could talk for an hour about why his farts smell like avacados, and it would be interesting...and as always...you take a lot of what he says with a grain of salt...because he's a stream of consciousness kinda talker...which is why I don't miss a thing...
cuz it's likely the last time you are going to hear it....
...fucking swampmeat Sally...
Well It is happy hour....Not gonna hurt though...I like the interview and all and I have a Question does DLR has Tattoos?
Now who`s that babe with the fab-u-lous shad-ow?
I think if a movie was done, you'd have it set from like 1977 to write as "Hot For Teacher" was coming out and do a composite of how Van Halen was fucking ruling the planet at the time.
play up the "Band mates as brothers angle" to the nth degree, and ignore the split angle to please the brothers and get their blessings.
Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team
Did anybody else get that when they were watching that it was just them and dave talking ...thats a skill....
fuck your fucking framing
And he still hasn't finished it, as yet another book is coming soon. Pissed me off even more when the sequel to The Talisman (Black House, both written with Peter Straub) wound up being an advertisement for The Dark Tower. I will say this, the current book about time travel (11/22/63) is the best thing he's come up with since 2008's Duma Key, itself his finest work since he wrote Insomnia some 14 years earlier.

Nothing like that...it's just that Dave isn't known to repeat himself much outside of the concert hall...his stories are these streams that strike him on the spot...you get the distinct impression that they go wherever his mind takes him...which depends a lot on where the hell he is...and what the hell he's on...
Loved Duma Key...couldn't put it down...can't wait to read 11/22/63...
hated the Black House...but liked his work post Insomnia...perhaps not as much as some of his other stuff...but liked it just the same...
Not as memorable as much of his other stuff...but memorable nonetheless...
I absolutely love the Dark Tower series...an am okay with this new book coming out...it's set in the middle of the tale, if I remember correctly...and can't wait to get my fucking hands on it...
It's so funny to me that all of the people that hate Dave and his ego, that hate his rockstar persona or the outrageous antics they've only heard about, have never stopped to listen to Dave. Or read his book. Fuck, even read an interview with him. These people sit and very much judge a book by its cover. Because rockstars can't be philosophical. Rockstars can't be beyond banging groupies or doing mounds of blow. Rockstars get vilified, and a lot of them should be on account of their arrogant and entitled aroma of douchois, but then here comes David Lee Roth, the pinnacle of frontmen, who will regale you with eloquent stories of his time in the jungle or his job as an EMT and your mind would be thoroughly blown......
....if you'd only listen.
I feel smarter just watching that....awesome explanation..dude is a mad genius..
Sammy wrote a song about colors too...Red..Red I want Red..Red..Red..Red..Red..Red..Red..Red..buwwhhahha a!!
It is different, at least for a King book. For instance, while there are some horrific moments, the story isn't a horror tale. And the elements of time travel (not giving anything away here, as the cover itself shows two different newspaper front pages, one announcing Kennedy's assassination, the other indicating he'd survived), while being quite complex and confusing, doesn't really drive the plot as much as you'd think. It has more to do with the atmosphere of the period, which is captured in some remarkably detailed prose.
That explains why I have ZERO TOLERANCE for stupid fucksticks like Jim Florentine or Eddie Trunk or Sambo. If these ass clowns cant take 5 min. out of their worthless day to read some lyrics and see the deeper meanings ---- then go find a different career than wasting our time talking about music or attempting to create art. Fucking clueless shitbirds.
Dave could sit on a stool and talk for one hour about his colorful life in NYC and it would totally eclipse anything Pussy Nugget Hagar has done in the last two decades.
Man, this demonstrates to the extreme the intellect behind the dime-store Rock Philospher persona that Dave has.....Spamulus The Unintelligent could never DREAM of writing lyrics that good.
That was such a great video. I am speechless....
love it.....

Why the fuck are they using VIMEO? Are they too COOL to use youtube? a service which has gigabits of bandwidth dedicated for its millions of users?? No. They decided to use vimeo, a "hipster" alternative which obviously can't handle a moderate load. What a joke.
I would sincerely like to be able to watch this video.. I just... cant.
I took 10 minutes typing this message - couldn't really articulate my disgust.. the video paused in the background. I was waiting for it to preload. Typically in under a minute the rest of the video should be finished loading - evidenced by the progress/position bar having a solid gray background.
So how far did I get in 10 + minutes? I got an extra 45 seconds of video preloaded. Hot fucking damn!
/sitting on a 40mbps broadband, no problems here.
and 45 seconds later the video is stopped! GOD DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!
You know, I really want to be a nice guy about all of this. Buuuuuuut....
Really? The rest of us are hanging in there just fine and appreciating that IF we have to wait (which I did not) so fucking what? We are getting literally TONS of new info/videos/music and you want to bitch about the service they use? That's like saying, "Man, I'm totally going to bang [insert supermodel/actress/hot-ass-chick-in-general here] but she doesn't lick the taint. I'm out." Don't like it? Get a better service yourself. Maybe there's a little bit of traffic because it's just that awesome. To me I'd be grateful, but hey, some people can't be pleased.
And Elvis, oh Elvis. What in the blazing blue fuck is your problem? All I ever hear you doing is bitching and complaining and blah blah blah. Why are you even here? Is it just to piss people off? Is it to show that you are edgy and don't run with the pack? Well guess what? This forum is for those that run with the pack. The Dave pack. If all you want to do is use your internet anonymity to ruffle feathers and piss in everyone's Cheerios, then I'm sure there are plenty of video game/sports/porn/other music forums you can go to and do that. But why do you have to rain on my parade? Why? You being here is like banging your sister: it seems cool at first, but then you realize you are banging your sister. Come on.
