Dave's influence on other vocalists...

[Vinnie Velvet]

Amen to that.

DAVE RULES.

[DLRisGOD]

If "Girls, Girls, Girls" and the DLR-ish interludes on that song
ain't a blatant rip-off of Roth, I don't know what is...

ROTH and CVH's style was often imitated, but NEVER duplicated...

And that's something Van Fagar fans never admit.

Look at Sham during 5150 and then look at his look for OU812!! 1988 saw the faggot straighten out his afro hairdo, wear it longer and all of a sudden, he was wearing Spandex on stage!!

It was so obvious Sam was insecure about his place in VH that he tried to cop Dave's look and style to please the fans.

What a loser.

Now I walk like someone else...

the voice is more crappy than Roth,his voice sucks ass when its high i think,it just sounds a bit too much,its not high in a good way like Axl Rose,its kinda high in an ive got no balls way,i think he is ok when he's doing lower stuff though.but he shouldnt do the high stuff

There have been so many Dave copys over the years.

Lets start with these:

Vince Neil
Brett Micheals

And a whole host of other losers.

Phil Collins, as a solo artist, apparently used roth as a role model...

BAM

I think I've seen other rock vocalists do the drum riser leap. Dave is
the ONLY one to do it right and best! But I think imitation is a form of
flattery!
