Funny...I always wait for Jim Carrey to scream "Are these non fat muffins?!?!"

I think he was inspired after doing 3 hours with Joe. He's got nothing else to do.<img src="http://www.nrgservices.com/EBAY/roth.jpg">Comment

Well apart from run this 30 person ink business?
I think it's been an afterthought not a strategy. Also it could be me being dumb but I'm not immediately able to access this as a podcast on my fruit based device...Comment

Hell, Dave is bored to death. Ed is maybe on some pills again binging CSI-Las Vegas, while Dave wants to conquer it just because he has nothing better to do.
Do I love the whole idea of it? Fucking no! But still love the spirit! This let's go places we've never been attitude inspires me every day.
"When was the last time you did something for the first time?"
Dangle with Miley, uncle Dave, enjoy the ride and if you crash into catastrophe laugh to win!

Previously you got the scripted 2 hour show with a a handful of short sound-bites and interviews, which were also heavily scripted. It worked great before the internet and you only saw and heard from the guy when he rolled into your local area. Now you're getting a look under the unpolished covers... a glimpse into who the real Dave is without the lights, glamour and paid models to present a persona...
Your imagination doesn't have to fill in the rough spots anymore... they're all exposed and it doesn't look so great without makeup and a great costume... Say hello to reality..."If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”Comment

I'm of the mindset that this is exactly what DLR is and has been all along...

It kind of ties into my feelings about Van Halen in general terms re: the heyday vs. today. Back in the heyday, we really didn't get too many glimpses of what was going on backstage in a raw, unfiltered way that wasn't shaped by a controlled public relations machine. Hence, decades later we get audio of Ed's 1982 drunken telephone interview where Ed is basically shitting on Mike Anthony in terms of his contributions (or lack thereof in Ed's mind). Decades later we get the inside skinny on how the Van Halens and Roth whittled down Anthony's percentage of the cut. Neither of these were widely known at the time. Wherever we do get glimpses of what is going on behind the scenes, it generally hasn't been a pleasant picture.
When you're younger, you see the image and make deductions as to what life backstage is like based on that image, even despite knowing the image is contrived. When you get older, you find out oftentimes the image has little to do with the reality.
Some people like finding out the truth of things: fact being more interesting than fiction, etc. With Van Halen, the facts that have emerged aren't pretty...nor positive. In point of fact, a bit jarring to me, because the music Van Halen made has always been (and remains to this day) such a positive thing. Something along the lines of someone saying when you run away to join the circus, behind the scenes you get to smell the shit firsthand.
The past 20 to 25 years, most of the focus has been on the backstage aspects, mostly because there hasn't been a prolific amount of musical output and what output there has been really hasn't been too enthralling overall: rumors and backstage gossip has certainly been more entertaining than, say, the Van Halen III album. Or the newer BOBW tracks...and even the weaker stuff on ADKOT, if I'm being honest.
Dave comes across as a strange guy who is clearly impressed with every utterance he makes. Listening to himself talk is obviously his favorite form of entertainment. Me? After 35 years of reading and hearing him being interviewed, I've had more than enough to the point where the idea of taking the time to listen to 3 hours of Roth on Rogan, or two hours of Roth on a solo podcast...nah. I'd rather rub one out, take a nap and stare at the grass for a few hours, thinking of nothing in particular. It'd be time better spent.
I would like to hear some new music, either whatever Roth and Eddie can come up with or Roth on his own...or the John 5 stuff that was shelved.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Which, for me anyway...I have less and less of a desire to see what goes on behind the scenes with Roth these days.
