            Couldn't agree more.....that dude knows how to capture an audience...whether its 50 people in a classroom setting or 20,000 at Madison Square garden. That dude has a gift.

                And he has a story or a reason behind all of them. Wouldn't you love to just sit a have a beer or 12 with him and listen to his stories?

                  Hell yes!

                  Not only would it be extremely entertaining but informative and educational as well!

                    I dunno, part of me doesn't want to know. I like Dave's lyrics because we all take from them what applies to us in our lives. Sometimes, not knowing what the hell he is singing about is better and leaves much to the imagination. That grey area is what kept this site going these many years, lol

                      I agree, I still want to hear some more "Owwwww", "Dig it Ya'll" and "Oooh Baby" in there.....

                        Funny. Case in point...it seems Pojo has some experience/affinity with "Swampmeat Sally" versus 'Swap Meet Sally"

                        Some things are just better left to the imagination...

                        Still, this is all so very cool

                          Brilliant!! Song by song? Looks like they might have taped one for each song. Sure hope so.

                            'Song by song' makes me think he's going to roll through the album with us. Stellar, Dave!!!

                              I'm glad Dave is doing this for the mere fact that 90% of the masses are complete idiots and I have had enough of all the morons going on about the lyrics are stupid and do not make sense on some of the sites concerning Van Halen (mostly some of Hagar's sheep that got loose from the pen). The lyrics are intelligent, entertaining and witty...something those people are lacking. And when Dave does something like this, it is like a giant locomotive running them down with shut the F#CK up written on the cowcatcher (or rather sheep catcher) in front of that steam engine.
