I just wanted to say hi. Im a long time van halen fan that was looking for a good forum to join, and since I couldnt find a van halen one, this was next best. Im 30 years old and I grew up on van halen, literally. Jump is the first song I can remember hearing. Eddie is my favorite guitar player ever and a personal inspiration. I own a wolfgang, ive had it since 02 I think. im so excited about the new album and tour, im actually seeimg them in michigan on night 2. First time that ive seen them with roth, couldnt go to the last tour because of finacial reasons. I have seen vh with sammy twice, and I saw both singers during the sammy and dave tour. Well thats enough for now, gladvto be here and rock on!!!

Hi Mikeyj122 and welcome to The Diamond David Lee Roth Army! We are a website created by fans of David Lee Roth for fans of David Lee Roth. IT’S THAT DAMN SIMPLE. The next beer is on us!"I decided to name my new band DLR because when you say David Lee Roth people think of an individual, but when you say DLR you think of a band. Its just like when you say Edward Van Halen, people think of an individual, but when you say Van Halen, you think of…David Lee Roth, baby!"! -

Btw, whats everyones expectations for the new album? I think if they have one song that makes it into mainstreem radio, that would be a major success. Ive onlu heard tattoo and shes the woman. I like tattoo, but I dont love it. I would compare it to girls gone bad, a goo album cut song but by no means a classic hit like panama. Shes the woman on the other hand, from what ive heard has gotten me excited.
Im just glad to see eddie healthy, happy, and playong a mean guirar again. When I saw them in 04 he was quite disappointing. Everybody has their reason for liking vh, and forvme its eddie. Imo he is the secound most influential guitar player behind jimi hendrix.Fuck every bodyComment

Edward was quite a let down on the '07 tour as well. He didn't suck but he didn't live up to Eddie Van Halen at all...but I think we will see the real Eddie this time around...
After letting Tattoo grow on me I have high hopes for the new album. But I must admit that Tattoo wouldn't be any better than an average Van Hagar song without Dave, so we will see...

See, now I'd say that Tattoo sounds more like a Dave solo song, nothing particularly "VH" about it. I'm reserving judgement until I hear the whole album and have time to absorb it on my own time/terms. However, on a positive note, I'd rather the album swing towards Dave solo stuff than Van Hagar cuz Dave should know best what complements his vocal and lyrical style. I have come to turns that we will never get anything as exciting, that gets into your soul, as the early stuff, but that's probably just a reflection that time marches on. [Sigh]Comment

It does sound like solo Dave, but the guitar behind the chorus sounds like Edward and the solo is very Van Halenish for sure...
I wish it had the off beat drums like Down In Flames instead of the straight timing...
I think the lack of Michael Anthony's vocals makes it sound more like solo Dave stuff...Comment

To me it doesnt sound that much different from the two songs they did with dave for best of volume 1. Me wisr magic and cant get this stuff no more could probably fit well on this album.
I guess everbody hears something different from the new stuff, cause I hear eddies signiture guitar work, so to me it couldnt be more van halenish.Fuck every bodyComment

I'll give you the guitar, but it's not really "in your face, Eddie the guitar god is here". Actually, (I'm not a guitar player so maybe that's why) I find Al's drums more distinctive, or at least, they're the first things that make my ears prick up when I hear Vh, or Van Hagar on the radio.Comment

Your right, it isnt really smack you in the face guitar, but whens the last time any guitar player really smacked you in the face with a killer riff? I would have to go back to appetite for destruction for that kind of in your face stuff.
But when I listen to it I hear eddie, and thats the great thing about his playing, no one else sounds like him.Fuck every bodyComment

I think that's just the trend in music right now. Are there any guitar gods right now, other than the hold overs from the last 2 decades?Comment
