    Yea. Really. cmon man you wouldn't be pissed if you couldn't watch a new hot DLR vid that everyone was talking about because the video wouldn't goddamn load because their tiny capacity was maxed?

    Man look i aint trying to be a negative prick and TBH i figured i'd have a 50/50 chance of not being the only guy experiencing issues with vimeo.

    In respect of the spirit of the army, i'll keep my ramblings to separate threads so as not to steer off topic..which is what i should have done in the first place.

    peace

    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.

    I feel this is more Interscope saying "Hey, we are going to do new and crazy things to make people aware that Van Fucking Halen is back so when the record drops BOOM! Big sales!" that it is solely Dave. But then again, maybe it's this kind of forward thinking that made Dave really push for Interscope.

    That's what I'm hoping for. It couldn't be anything but a good thing if Dave's back in his old role as captain of the VH ship. Hell, I wanna see him kick this thing into overdrive and set the world on fire! Even if he has to drag Eddie kicking and screaming all the way

    I loved this - can't stop watching it - reminded me of Dave's radio show. Aside from being creative, original, and brilliant, he's got to have one of the sexiest voices ever! I could listen to him recite the alphabet for hours!!

    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.
    Vimeo allows users to embed a video on a specific page while preventing it from being embedded elsewhere. That means that DDE/VH can give any site(s) an exclusive. YouTube can't do that, as I found out when I came home from Cafe Wha? and wanted to share some videos only here.

    Someone just posted this video on YouTube. I think it's the same person who took the Roth Army exclusive videos. As for Vimeo, I gave up watching on vhnd. Maybe my wifi was slow today but it paused every few seconds and the audio and video didn't sync.

    Definitely felt intimate but "big" at the same time. Hard to explain...that's why Dave is the man!

    But in all seriousness, it's best not to confuse fun, clever, and thoughtful storytelling (which describes both this video and the song Tattoo to a "t" (and DLR in general)) with philosophy.

    This song is a series of vignettes for different reasons why folks get tattoos and the lyrics and music paint vivid pictures in an honest and heartfelt way from DLR/VH. And here Roth expands and gets at some of the symbolism he sees in the pictures he helps paint in the song. It's brilliant in that regard, but I don't think it's philosophy.

    Frankly, I'm not sure philosophy belongs in song...at least song in an enjoyable rhythmic/melodic method that we as human beings can relate to like we traditionally have to music. Philosophy requires too rigid a structure to "flow" well with music. Or it needs dialogue from 2 or more points of view coming to conclusions. Examples that come to mind are many Zappa songs or even some Rush tunes (no talk of ayn rand please, just giving it as an example of the direction that band aims). While admirable in their scope, the music is often jarring and mismatched. Some would argue that there is great value in jarring the listener and that it's part of the meaning of the song...I don't know.

    The term "Stream of Consciousness" was brought up in a previous post to describe DLR (among many folks that have the inclination to tell stories in a meandering yet linear method) and I think it's an apt comparison to the way we perceive song structure. Perhaps what doesn't make sense sometimes in a categorical, logical way DOES make sense in a musical way (or with painting,etc).

    Am I making any sense or just drifting?

    Enough, you guys. ELVIS isn't the subject of every thread here, Dave Roth/VH is. If you feel a need to continue this nonsense, then start an "ELVIS SUCKS" thread somewhere and keep all of this baloney confined to it.
