Newspaper poll results. Dave preferred.

A national poll would be awesome!

How can we get such a project started ??

From the Minneapolis Star TribuneSammy Hagar is a horrible lyricist and a very annoying singer. There is only one Van Halen. It's like comparing Ozzy Osbourne to Ronnie James Dio.

Holy shit!!! That's me!!! They used my quote!! That's so fucking awesome.

Someone just posted that my Dio comment was bullshit, but I stand behind it. I think Dio did some good work with BLACK SABBATH, and I love the song HEAVEN AND HELL. But let's face it, when you think BLACK SABBATH, you think Ozzy, Tony, Geezer and Bill. And that's it (to me, anyway).

Anyway, I'm just stoked to see my name in a declaration that the band may very well read...telling them that DAVE IS PREFERRED!

My friends, I will raise my glass to the Diamond one...let's all drink to our hero and hope that someday he will return and restake his claim...

In the meantime, Dave rocks anyway!

This is wicked.

Burlington Ontario is a suburb right by Toronto...I usually tell people I speak to in the States that I'm a Toronto resident because then they know where I'm talking about.

Congratulations on your 15 minutes of fame, Rikk

Cool article. LOL@"Van Halen quite simply rocked with every part of its anatomy while Van Hagar sounded a bit more like a neutered Ken doll trying to play at rock."

How can he be a better songwriter when his lyrics suck !!!! Oh I get it, they are chick magnet lyrics )

Hagar is not the better songwriter.

When 'I Can't Drive 55' is your 'Stairway To Heaven', there ain't much to be touting.

Readers of startribune.com have spoken. In an informal survey, they overwhelmingly prefer David Lee Roth over Sammy Hagar as Van Halen's lead singer.

You're darn tootin'.
