Fuck if I know.

Is he fat?

John Corabi was in the debacle that was Motlet Crue...for 1 album. The song that was played on the radio was Hooligans Holiday. He also replaced Pearcy in Ratt. He is to singing what Vivian Campbell is to guitar...a band slut.

John Corabi was the "Gary Cherone" of Motley Crue.

They didn't even bother hiring a Hagar first. The fact that they wrote "Home Sweet Home" was bad enough.

Oh yeah, and to our new sheep arrival......

FUCK VAN HAGAR IN THE ASS WITH A DULL RUSTY CHAINSAW!!!

Shit, that's one helluva legacy.

Anyway, you're saying Corabi could have just put an end to the pain?

You're full of fucking hate.

Go on.....

If Eddie wouldn't have "hired" Hagar, and Dave never reunited with them, what do you think the band should have done? Were there other singers available at the time that would have done better?

I think Eddie made the best move he could considering the circumstances. Could never fill Dave's shoes, but they still made a godd run with Hagar. Sold a lot of albums, sold a lot of tickets on tour. Not as many albums as they did with Dave mind you, but they were successful with Sammy.

Personally?

I think "the band" wasn't smart enough to come up with the perfect trained seal all on their own.

It's laughable.

Welcome to the machine and the cuntplete bastardization of a band without it's leader.

Speak to that.

They definitely lost their trademark and what made them unique when Dave left. CVH you know immediately. Every new Hagar song I heard on the radio, I wasn't sure if it was them or not. But I don't think any other singers would have given them any more success than Hagar did. They were screwed without Dave either way. Eddie was just to proud to admit he needed Dave. Still is.

EVH without DAVE?

Who cares?

EVH has BORED me for the past 20 years.......

Let me start by saying the ROCK band Van Halen’s lead singer is/was David Lee Roth. Eddie Van Halen started a new rock/pop band in the mid-80’s with Sammy Hagar singing. This second band was good, but not great as was the 1st.

We as David Lee Roth/Van Halen fans should not hold any grudge or animosity towards Sammy Hagar. Sammy did not take David’s place. David had already left the band before Sammy and Eddie were even introduced. We should thank God every day that the new band had Sammy Hagar rather than Patty Smyth.

Listening to Eddie’s magnificent guitar playing with Sammy is much better than him changing directions after the breakup and scoring movie soundtracks (ala Stewart Copeland, Danny Elfman, etc…). We all know he already had plenty of our money that he didn’t have to work another day in his life.

At the very least, we were still able to buy new albums after Dave’s departure, and see Eddie perform live (his 20 minute solo is why many of us went to the shows to begin with).

As for the 2004 reunion, Sammy was man enough to put aside his differences, if only for one summer, and make the tour happen. He admits that it was terribly difficult working with Eddie during the tour, but he swallowed his pride and did it for the fans. He even sang a majority of Roth era songs because I think he knew this was it for the fans. Anyone who saw that tour, and has seen The Waboritas live, know that Sammy was having a tough time enjoying himself up there with Eddie.

So before we trash Sammy, try imagining what would have happened had he never came into the picture. Would Dave had come back right away? Doubtful. I would rather have 5 semi-crappy albums of Eddie’s guitar playing, than zero albums.

It’s better to fuck a fat chick then it is to live a life of celibacy.

I am waiting for that torch to be lit, as I have since 1985. And I will continue. Until then….

Peace out.

Very well thought out and post on your part.

Too bad it reads like a fucking how-to book for retards.

You are obliviously a walking cum bubble if you believe any of that garbage you're pushing. It is also apparent that you worship the man-hole and you crank on your microdick while listening to "Dreams".

Fuck off you lactating tranny!

ROTH, ED, AL BASSPLAYER...................................NO IF's, Chaps or Ass about it............period.
