Age of the DLR ARMY personell

[cadaverdog]

Just an observation but I have noticed most of the members of the DLR army that state their age on the profile were pretty young when Dave left VH.
I wonder how many of you actually saw the origanal group live.
I saw them twice ,first at a huge show at the LA coliseum called The world music festival.
They were a fairly new band but they were definatly the most popular band there.
The last was at US 83 .
They kicked ass but the crowd got really pissy about the long wait before they took the stage .
It was extremely hot that day and the crowd was dropping like flies.
If there performance on this tour is even half what I witnessed ,It will please you all.

Um dude, wrong forum...

If you have an ax to grind, take it too the Feedback forum located at the bottom of your screen...

Hey Dude,
I wasn't complaining just making an observation.
I didn't start going to concerts until I was 18.
If my friends had cars they were too big of pieces of shit to go anywhere.
Minumum wage was two bucks an hour when I was 18, and I was lucky to make enough to make four bucks an hour at my first job .
Even then I was driving a hand me down 67 chevy that my dad gave me.
Ilive about a hundred miles from the nearest concert venue and only in the last ten years could you get to L A without greyhound .
The greyhound station in L A still scares me and I am 6"2 and weigh 250 plus.
I just was wondering how many members of the army ever saw CVH
Maybe some went with there parents.
You would never catch my parents listening to rock and roll , my mom thought Don Mc cleen was hard rock.

Doesn't look like ax grinding to me. But it's defiinitely not tour related either.......

I was 15 when they were on their last tour. I tried going to a show but was denied. I cant wait to see them. But you are right. Most of the age groups of the Army didnt know how big the band was at all. I just hope it wasnt like you said waiting and all that!

Not a problem my friend. I thought it was a good observation!

I moved my comments to the proper forum The powers that be can eliminate this thread if nessesary.

As God as my witness, I was luckily enough to see them live five times. 1979, 80, 81, 82 and 1984. And I’ve seen Dave on the Eat Em’ and Smile and Skyscraper tours. For the record, I’ve never seen Van Hagar live and I’ve never bought or owned a Van Hagar CD. I’m a true Dave or the grave disciple.

When I was 10, I saw the Video "Jump" on MTV and fell in love with the band since then and became a huge David Lee Roth fan in CH and solo.

I've seen DLR lots of times solo and can't wait to see him back in VH, I was only 6 years old when they broke up and glad to have a chance to see CVH first time in my life.

I was 3 when CVH split.

Consequently, I have never seen them live or Van Hagar or Van Cherone for that matter.

I saw Dave twice on his last UK tour.

I pray to God the new tour comes over here...

I saw CVH from four times. The best was in Tampa opening for Sabbath! Seconed favorite would be opening for the STONES in Orlando! I was 22 when they split! Here's me then!

Cool car DT!

I had no use for Sammy. I liked some of his old stuff but just was not a fit with halen. They must of been high as a kite when they ask him to join.... Dave, saw him 4 times. Went back stage and stole a David lee Roth Dressing Room sign. We were only in 10th grade. I dont like or promote stealing but I had to have it. Its hanging in my office today.

Nice pic, DT!

Saw VH in 81, 82 and 84.

I have seen Roth solo a bunch of times too from when he left VH right up thru last fall.
