It's great to read that the one and only vocalist for one of my favorite groups is still showing the rest of the rock and roll world that when it comes to Van Halen the only real Van Halen was when Diamond David Lee Roth was singing for them. Thank you for the review of his new years party/concert. Long Live Dave!

There was no magic there, DLR isn't nothing more than a VH cover band now.
I mean the original line up was great. When they first started out they where hungry with something to prove and it showed, but then Dave wanted to be a Vegas act instead of a rock god.
Van Halens first couple albums with Sammy where good because he was trying to prove they could make it without Dave.
The only way a reunion could work with Dave is if he quits trying to act like Wayne Newton ( Diamond David Lee Roth ), and more like David Lee Roth from Van Halen 1..
Just my opinon..
I saw the show too, it is good to hear him sing the classics, it's just the shame that's all there is left.

I don't have it saved ahole. I pulled it off the Yankee Rose video justtttttt for you.....Ok

Second, I saw Dave New Years and he was awesome! Ya know, a lot of us don't give a shite about the "new stuff", and love hearing Dave do the Van Roth classics and his EEAS days tune. Same goes for AC/DC and these other great "old fart" bands.

Also, ya know Dave is quite wealthy, he doesn't have to do shite. So I am glad when he gets out once and awhile, and puts on a great show for the fans.

Also, who give a shite what Dave is wearing, how high is kicks are, etc. He's not putting on a fucking style and gymnastic show, for peer ratings.

While I am venting, people make fun of Dave doing that marshal arts baton routine. I would like to see anyone on this forum pull that stunt off without hitting yourself in the balls, ripping your face off, or wiping out a couple of people in the front row.

That routine Dave does is extremely difficult, particular with the very long length of that baton. Dave has hurt himself bad a couple of times when he screwed up that stunt.

Aw, I feel better now. Nuff said.......Forget About It!!!

As far as pictures of Dave's ass goes... IMO, that is not one of the better ones. :D

Baawaaaaaaa

Hey Ims2, the RA women, that I love each and every one, had a whole thread of Dave hunk shots, including lots of ass shots in the Picture Archive Bonanza, so let’s leave it there bro.

A bud and I are re-mastering all the Van Roth and DLR videos presently, (production vids, TV, and good bootlegs) ("lil' personal project") (don't know when it is going to be done or how many DVD's it is going to be) and that is the reason I am throwing all the cool pics out here at the RArmy, from the DLR-EEAS production vids, with my comments.

As to the Dave ass/nuts shot, etc. in the 1986 Yankee Rose video, I posted above, actually, I was pissed when Dave came back into the market with the EEAS Band, after the VH breakup, and Yankee Rose was his first video. I liked the video a lot , but thought it was too "over the top" on the "male domination/sex raunch" visual factor, and would alienate a critical part of his potential market. Secondly, Steve Vai looked like some drugged-out, slim, grease ball in that video.

A lot of music biz marketing guru's thought the same thing, and Roth’s video Yankee Rose would tank Dave's new career. However, all the Picasso Brothers and cool stuff in the video pulled his butt out of the fire. I have read several times that Warner Brothers (his label at that time) told Dave not to do a video like that again, if he valued his WB relationship. (I read a long time ago that Dave took some real shite over that video.)

Dave had his own production company at the time, with Pete, that he did the videos through, so WB didn’t have total control over him. However, look at the big difference in his first video Yankee Rose, and his second and third videos, off the EEAS album, Goin’ Crazy and then That’s Life.

"Dave cannot kick like he used to". Comments from several R.A. brothers and sisters.

Looks like the 'ol man does well to me. Any 50 y.o. R.A. members have their current pics that can beat Dave?
