Which other vocalists did VH consider when Dave left???

[SloBurn]

Does anybody know which singers were under consideration by Van Halen when Dave took his leave of the band?

I heard that Aussie singer Jimmy Barnes was a strong candidate, but i'm not too sure that would have worked out, considering his style.

I also heard they were considering a woman? I can't remember who though....

Who do you think would have been good? Not better than Spammy, shit, that could have been anyone.

[Polk High]

when dave left it was like losing their leader, so they were lost.

I like jimmy barnes but yeah he wouldn't have fit in well at all.

[Polk High]

then again either did hagar as he tried his best to impersonate roth when he should have been singing like himself.

barnes i think would have been a better choice.
