All good points everyone!!!!! Were all pretty clever and smart over here at the Roth army!!!!!!

I to did not abandon Dave during those years. Its just annoying when people ask you hey man have you bought any new cd`s lately and i am like yeah i got the new David Lee Roth and then they go shit is he still around? i havent heard anything from his since like 88 or something.

Then i tell them about ALAE, YFLM, Best Off, DLR and Diamond Dave and then they go i never heard of those albums???

i would have bought them if i knew. Which ladies and gentleman goes back to another topic i brought up once here about marketing.

It's the PINK FLOYD analogy stupid! Hardly anyone buys ROGER WATERS despite that fact that he wrote the majority of FLOYD's music and lyrics! Waterless STINK VOID like "The Division (Hell)" outsells WATERS' solo stuff even though WATERS is far more interesting and creative.

It's just the name of a brand, it's like when Cadillac basically took a Chevy Cavalier and spruced it up, then slapped a Cadi logo on it! It's still just a shit car with a nice logo.

I know name brand has a lot to do with it but Thousands and yes even millions of CVH Fans know who Roth is and should be ready to go when they hear the name David Lee Roth.

Its almost like those fans are saying hey i only like you when your in CVH not solo. If thats the case do we really want those same people showing up to the CVH reunion shows or would we rather have the true fans like ourselves who have stuck by him through the good and bad.

i also look at those people as sell outs and followers. you know like im only going to listen and like whats popular and what the media says i should like.
