This may be old news to some but thought I would post it anyway. Found this on www.hardradio.com. P.S. Love the 10 reasons Van Hagar is a joke list.
In related news, DAVID LEE ROTH, the famed front man for VAN HALEN, is apparently reinventing himself as an emergency medical technician. The other night at the Four Seasons restaurant, the 48-year-old millionaire musician revealed to dinner companions that he has been living in a modest apartment on the lower East Side and showing up most days for EMT training. "I used to be a surgical orderly in South Central L.A.," he told me yesterday. "I started that when I got out of junior college in the early '70s, and that led to a variety of things in the outdoor medical fire force and training with the Green Berets... My father was a surgeon and my uncles and my cousins were also in the medical community, so I come by it naturally." Roth, who said he has relocated to New York from his estate in Pasadena, Calif., specifically to train as an EMT, said he hopes to obtain his certification in November and work as a volunteer one weekend per month. "I want to be working in the outer boroughs. This city promises great color and insight in each and every neighborhood," Roth said. "On the upper East Side, it's gonna be heart attacks and stomach aches. But in other neighborhoods, it's all trauma." (Thanks to Lloyd Grove of The New York Daily News)
