[Big Train]

For the Sammy fans who have trouble understanding the big picture, I'd like to give them an analogy that my fellow soliders can help with.

Imagine we are talking the nickel tour through the Classic House of Halen. How would you describe the major components. Mine would go like this:

Music by EVH
Lyrics by Roth
Melodies by Roth
Stage Design by Roth
Videos by Roth
Album Design by Roth
Merchandising by Roth
PR by Roth

thats just off the top of my head...

Holy fuck dude, I had no idea I had never voted for ya...........I thought all this time that I had. Sorry bout that! I need to vote for Splooge first though.

Wouldn't it be a hoot if Wolfgang looked like Dave? Then we would really know the reason he wasn't let back in the band.

Wolfang looks like a slob, so we know it's Ed's kid.

Did Dave really bang Val? I've never heard that.... But damn, Ed and Val aren't together now anyway, so it's time to get over it and put Dave back on stage!

No, no, no... They have tried to get him back in countless times, now. ED has anyway...

Hmm, so sounds like we need to replace the drummer for a Tommy Aldrige or a Kerslake, and then Ed and Dave can re-create the chemistry.
No powerballads, just straight ahead rock and roll.

Rogue, what else do you know, why would Ed get shot down if it was his intention?
These people HAVE to know that the majority want Roth.

Five Star for sure!

Mezro...nice post Big Train...

[Thetruthbaby]

An easier way to realize the enormous impact is just listen to VH1 and then put on Love Walks In off 5150. That is all one needs to hear. Roth would have vetoed that abomination faster than a Randy Johnson pitch.

How about "discipline by EVH and AVH" because David Roth was a slob before the Brothers worked his ass off into shape.

How about: Roth needs to reprove himself after the "Diamond Dave" disc I wasted $16 bucks over at Best Buy for didn't meet the minimum expectations? And how about: I'll be damned if I buy another shitty DLR album with so many sucky fucking rotten half-hearted, four year old dross sonic shit piss-takes on it!

DLR needs, if not the Brothers discipline to remake himself worthy of my aluminum cans money, then he needs SOMEBODY to kick his ass into shape and give me what I expect: kickass rock.

How about: I just act the way Roth treats us, which is I Could Give A Shit?

[Big Train]

Why don't you go hit the parking lots, get some more cans and see him live? That should give you the "kickass rock" fix you need. Or you could go see Van Hagar and watch the bullshit fest it's become.

You have a serious burr up your ass and your too young to appreciate what the real thing was, which is what we are discussing.

Now, grab your sack and hit the liquor store parking lot...

Dig it! Maguro is served! Time to break out the hand roll!

Mezro...how many licks does it take to get to the center of a white girl? Who fucking cares! Make mine Asian every time...

[EmpyreLounge44]

words and music...its all about the words and music.

[Big Train]

So the rest of his contributions don't matter?

At least half of your equation is all Dave.

[HELLVIS]

Big Train, it's easier to list his non-contributions.

1. Weak-ass, pussy whipped, lame, retarded, predictable, sheep fucking ways, which came straight to the surface upon DLR's exit.

2. No need for 2. I think 1 just about covers it.

Although to be fair, according to Roth AVH "designed" the cover of Fair Warning.

I would say I'd split it 50/50 between Ed and Roth in terms of music and melodies, with Ed writing the lion's share of the music and Roth, along with Templeman, being involved on editing and arranging the music.

Stage design, videos, album design, merchandising and PR/media relations go to Dave, as well as lyrics.

Would have to give th other two (Mike and Al) some props in terms of molding the songs in rehearsal/album pre-production.

Put it this way, no way Dave deserves less than the other three in terms of royalties, and Dave insisting on a four-way equal split isn't just the right thing to do, but downright generous considering Mike and Al's roles.

He also designed the ridiculous Diver Down cover.

They lived & worked with the guy for 11+ years, then stab him in the back when they get the chance. CLASS ACT those Van Hagar cats!!!
