    Sheep? Dont think so.

    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.

      But doesn't everyone here get called rothtard?

      By people who don't share the same opinion as you?

      Why does being a Dave fan mean you are automatically stuck in '84? You may not think it, but most of the other Sam fans here starting shit do.

      You are a Van Halen fan, great. We are classic VH fans, the Dave era, there are no grey areas like at the Links, who are suppose to be for all fans, but is dominated by Sam era fans.

      The site's description says David Lee Roth and classic VH. The Sam fans are here trying to turn it into the links, and it isn't happening.

        Not quite. I think healthy debate is fine, too. But the lengths that some here go to is sometimes beyond low. I came here and my first post wasnt much different than this thread here.....i got completely bashed. So, i'm not the one that started shit. I'm actually looking to see if anyone can offer a normal debate, without resorting to the knee-jerk reaction Sammy-Sheep comments as a crutch.

            Well we go through these arguments all the time..
            it's the same shit over and over.

            Either you get Dave.. or you don't.
            It's about an attitude and style that some people will never have the taste .. or the nads to appreciate.

            Sometimes it's easier to just say "Sheep"
            instead of conjuring up a master's level thesis about how big of a retard Sammy Hagar is.

              Well, see...i do get Roth...have since i was a kid. I appreciate him for what he is just like i appreciate Sammy for who he is. I had VH exposed to me since age 8 with the first album. As i stated before, my first concert was VH in 1984. I dont need to be told anything. I just happen to have more of an open mind, i guess.

                You have to realize the wave of crap Sam fans have started here since Sam rejoined VH.

                Thread after thread, unsolicited bullshit. You come along and are getting the knee jerk, but it isn't on the members here.

                We have had Sam fans come in here, start shit, and then when it got hot for them, turn around and say, "I was just kidding, fuck the reunion and fuck Hagar." Then the next day, find that there was another Sam fan here starting some shit, and hopped on their thread and bashed him to no end. When asked about it, the loser just responds, "I changed my story."

                It's immature bullshit like that, that is to blame here also.

                Some Sam fans coming in here and starting crap like that has made shit the way it is.

                    It doesn't matter because I think Eddie kicked him out of the band. I found proof.

                      Well, i've no doubts about Sammy fans starting crap, too.....both sides have been and are filled with bad apples.

                          Yeah, Socrates and spandex. Either you get it or you don't.
                          I'll casually point to the slew of new artists as well as older ones
                          (Nerf Herder, Hoobastank, Weezer, L7, Black Flag, Fee Waybill)
                          etc, etc. Point me in the direction of any noteworthy band/artist
                          in the last 19 years or so that has penned a song, made a
                          statement, or gushed about van hagar and the benefits involved.
                          I promise I'll read it or give it a look see.
