Which era do you hear most on the radio?

[JuniorsGrades]

For all the talk of rumors with Sam the radio stations that I've heard don't play much (if at all) of the Van Hagar era. It's always Dave era. If this rumor is true about Sam being back, then the radio stations aren't doing a very good job of promoting it (thank God)....In the last two weeks I've heard Everybody Wants Some twice, Beautiful Girls, And the Cradle Will Rock, Unchained, Hot For Teacher, Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love. Damn, I keep waiting for the DJ to say something about a Roth reunion after I hear these tunes...Just like in '96....After a VH-Roth tune the DJ says there's a rumor going around that Sam's out and Dave's in....I was so happy I teared up

I hear mostly Dave. Every once in awhile I'll hear some spam.

The number 1 rock station in my area hasn't played any VH since right after the VH III debacle. It's all Godsmack and Metallica. Wankers.

[Panamark]

The only Spammy song I ever hear (And of course the one I hate the most) is Dreams. All the other songs are Real Van Halen.

Fortunately we have two pretty good hard/classic rock stations here in SLC. They play all real Halen. I've even heard "Romeo Delight" before as well as "Mean Street," "Me Wise Magic" and "Drop Dead Legs." However, every once in a while I'll hear "Summer Nights," "Best Of Both Worlds," "Why Can't This Be Roth?" or "Dreams." That's about it, just "5150" stuff. Thank God.

Fortunately all of the Van Hagar vomit left our airwaves after the debunct '96 reunion.

However, I don't listen to any of the soft rock stations. Maybe that's where they play all of those forgettable, #1, chart topping, so called "hits" that Spam folks are so proud of?

Van Hagar is just as forgetteble on any heavy/classic rock station as Poison's laughable ballads.

[Panamark]

I heard one of our DJ's once say, "and that was Van Halen with "Dreams" or should I say "Van Hagar", what the hell happened to these guys ? Ah, but when David Lee Roth was at the Helm, they were something else !"

I shit you not, I would have rang the dude and thanked him personally if I had a phone on me at the time. Made my day hearing that, I pissed myself laughing.

[Igosplut]

I'd rather blow my brains out that listen to ANY classic rock stations...

Same cuts, twice a day, day in and day out. Never any of the lesser known cuts, or artists......

Like being stuck with a broken FM tuner and three Cds....

[BruinJer]

There's only one Rock station out here (the legendary KLOS) and they ONLY play Roth era VH.

[BigBadBrian]

I hear the Dave era the most. I think it's accurate as to what is broadcast the most. When the Cheeseball era comes on I get a different station.

Dirty South

I don't listen to the radio here! Atlanta isn't exactly known for Rock, y'all! Maybe it's my Motor City snobbery that's coming into play here, but I've scanned the dial and I'm not impressed! Thank God I have the Roth era cds, or I'd be in hillbilly Hell down here!


BUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!

[what waz zat]

I hear both Roth and Hagar songs. It seems to depend on the DJ. I think slightly more Roth though. As springtime hits and the weather gets warmer, I'm sure it you'll hear more VH and especially the classic stuff

[what waz zat]

I'm from Motown originally but in Des Moines, IA now. I go back on occasion and the RIF is playing stuff like Godsmack and Fuel but hardly any rock from the 80's and 90's. There is a cool station here though where I can herar VH, AC/DC, and Zep at least 1-2 times a day

[DLR7884]

Out of every ten I hear on the radio 8 are Dave era, 2 are "other."

I also hear more solo Dave than Spam.

[WACF]

Mostly Roth era...

[Sammy Who??]
