Over and over again.....y'all call anyone who likes Sammy a "sheep". Well, it's not only silly, but it's just missing the point of being a fan of VH. Obviously, this is a Roth site...and that's fine. The Links cater mainly to the Post-Roth era VH, but still have fans there who love
em both....and that's fine, too. Like what ya want.....are you a "rothtard" because you like Roth more? No. Are you a "sheep" for liking Sammy more? No. See....a "sheep", to me, is someone who blindly follows someone, with nothing but tunnel-vision as they're source of sight. A "Rothtard", to me, has always been those who arent just stuck in 1984, but moreso those who are just rude towards other's opinions...should they dare to differ. I love the Dave years...the first 6 albums are classic. Dave's solo efforts are great...not all in the same league with the first 2, but he has something to offer. Sammy's had a very enduring career. Montrose through his solo outtings. Honestly, i havent liked too much of his post-VH solo stuff....a tune here or there, but i know he gives his all. Same can be said for Dave....in fact, during the Sam & Dave tour...both guys shined bright....they both lacked one thing, though...VH. So here we are.....yes, as i stated...this is a Roth site. I belong to it as i do to the Links....i love all VH eras....even Gary's time in the band. He gave a helluva effort on that tour. I dont expect y'all to agree...i'll get the usual bashing i'm sure...and that's fine, whatever. But...i'm not a "Sheep"....i'm not a "Rothtard"....i'm a VAN HALEN fan....4 ever and always. Peace.
