Loved this episode of The Roth Show. Hated this version of Cali Girls. Dave's voice is gone for good I guess. I'd be happy with him doing a Broadway show with a John 5 soundtrack. No more live shows, please.

My karma just ran over your dogma.
Sadly, I'm in full agreement with this. The over compensation factor is off the charts at this point. He actually does a bit of the switch up that was so disliked in DTNA. I just don't get it. Dave, stick with the baritone gott dammit! The intermittent yelps are not lending to the songs either.
He has more hair than most of the older fellas I know. I don't know if it's hereditary but it seems like alot of Jewish men suffer from male pattern baldness. As far as his wardrobe goes he's up there to entertain people and he's expected to wear funny clothes. That's part of his shtick. If Dave doesn't look, sing and act like Dave he'd probably end up like Ricky Nelson at the Garden Party.
Well, allegedly the baldness gene is inherited from the mother's side, just like Judaism is. Though I question the baldness part, since I have known several bald mortals who also had bald fathers.
I think you took the exact opposite message from that song that Ricky Nelson intended.As far as his wardrobe goes he's up there to entertain people and he's expected to wear funny clothes. That's part of his shtick. If Dave doesn't look, sing and act like Dave he'd probably end up like Ricky Nelson at the Garden Party.
That's one of the numbers from rainbow bar and grill ... I forgot the fucking words .
Then enter the tiller girls ....
Actually with Dave that's probably literally
fuck your fucking framing
DLR is just a fucking nut job. Who can sit through the crap he posts? He loves to hear himself talk doesnt he? Drugs are bad... mmm kay.
If you didnt turn it off at 4:40 then you are gay. WTF was that crap?

I finally watched the video with Dave and Mike Love singing California Girls and I'd have loved to have been there no matter how bad they sang or how bad they looked. Dave rambled on incohenently at first but he settled down. It was two hall of famers singing a classic song with a tv star thrown in for the younger ladies to look at. He hugged another man at the end he didn't slip him some tounge.
Right.... and then Ricky turned that experience into a hit record. Which didn't sound anything like his 50's teen idol stuff. He actually was among the early pioneers of the "country-rock" genre.
Might have had a few more hits if he hadn't shared his cocaine with his pilot
There's a new alias here who smells a lot like a stinky Diaper......

I'm just glad Dave isn't wearing chaps with no pants these days. Tacky suits with wild socks are a much better choice. The glass is half full. It could be much worse.
No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!
Ha! Maybe Dave's mommy took him to see that play when he was a kid. Maybe the next VH tour will have a Westside Story or Guys and Dolls vibe. Hell do Bye Bye Birdie. Ed can play that funky Fender Jaguar. I must be careful not to give Dave new ideas. He will start wearing a gold jumpsuit with a gold Ramses wrestling mask around.

Hey come on Bridge! You remember what it was like sponging off ma n pa, rolling outta bed around noon to cook yourself some instant noodles, not showering for days, generally being one of life's jackpot winners. Give the kid a break, sheesh!!
Speaking of winners, where's K? I worry when she disappears.
Oh, on topic. Mr Roth has earned the right to do exactly whatever the fuck he wants. If you don't like it, there's an 'off' switch.
Dave's clothes, jibber jabber, hats and dancing never bothered me a bit. It's only his current singing style that perturbs me. He's the one singer in rock that can be a vocal minimalist and get away with it, and yet he strains painfully to sound like something he's not. Confounding I tell ya.
To speak in more mature terms, Ad-libbing shit was always D-Ro's specialty. Just look at Us Fest 83, one of my favorite Van Halen video bootlegs, made me fall in love with David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen at a young age, Dave sounded like absolute dogshit on that show compared to the album version of those songs and previous concerts, yet the show was fucking EPIC.
I fucked up, I'm sorry that I compared you to Krusty. But to be frank, you were making a huge deal over what is a complete non-issue.
I don't want this site to turn into the YouTube Van Halen fan community, a bunch of whining old cunts that bitch about Dave's voice, Dave's stage antics, Wolfie's bass playing, Wolfie being in the band in the first place, the fact that Eddie plays the same Eruption so for 36 years, why Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony aren't in the band and on and on and on.
Hey motherfucker! Fraggle Rock is the future of this site! Let's see what he has to say. Other than the fact that he wants to cut stranger's throats or kill people or watch Spongebob while his dad drunkenly bangs his mom like a shy prom date. Geez, you really need to try to understand and embrace the youngsters and their lifestyles...
