Here's a review of Van Hagar from the Daily Herald a Utah newspaper.

It's a positive review. Don't worry all for Max this is probably a toll free phone call. :D



Daily Herald review (Utah)

[Figs]

From the article


Darby has some advice for Van Halen fans still holding out for a Roth sequel.

"Get a life ... and a girlfriend," he said.

Besides, he said, the band is better off these days with Hagar.

"Dave was a great frontman," Darby said. "Every singer in a hair band in the '80s wanted to be him. I love the stuff they did with Dave."

But?

"Dave is now a joke," he said. "He's a parody of himself. How many boze-de-boze-de-bops do we need to hear? Sammy is still a great frontman, and on top of that is an excellent musician. He can play more than a mic stand. He can pull it off live, too. Even in his prime, Dave was questionable live. I prefer Sammy ... did that come across?"



---Sounds like one of the "fan of both eras" who has posted here. Always trying to rationalize.

Liar!! I was listening to the rock radio station in Utah (on the internet), and I heard MAX come on and tell the DJ how he has everybody at his Roth forum site fooled into thinking he's a Dave-or-the-graver!!! MAX even declared that his favorite Van Halen song is UP FOR BREAKFAST because it's new and symbolizes the newfound love between "my two heroes" Sammy and Eddie. Max then started bitching about how Utah record stores don't carry much of Sam's solo catalog and then he started going on about the merits of Sam's various solo albums until the DJ finally cut him off and asked him to leave. The last thing you could hear was the DJ blaring MEAN STREET and Max screaming, "No, it's crap!" in the background as he was dragged out.

Oh, Max, go check the Sheep Pen. You still have to approve a new addition to make it unanimous.

I wonder why "Darby" didn't mention Sam's committment to his fans and refusal to sell out?

Oh, that's right, he's never succeeded at either.

The fact is, Sam's a fat bitch who has no clue of subtle advertising and alienates fans at every chance. Dave's a class act, that's undisputable.

BORING!!!! Same old interview from the start of the SHAM HALEN 2004 summer "FLEECE THE SHEEP" tour. The DARBY guy praises DAVE and then goes for the standard SHEEP shot "He ain't what he used to be". As if the SISTERS, SPammy, & MIKEY have not been touched by the hands of time. Same old SHEEP rhetoric.
The past that I found funny was the "DVD release after the tour" bit. HAHAHAHAH!!!!! RIGHT!!! As if ANYBODY wants that!!! "HEY! ALL 5 people in line, we got what ya want!!!!" SAD, the SHEEP just don't see that their being taken to the cleaners by these bloated old hacks!!! "YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW"

"I don't want to be late," deadpanned Hagar. "I could get fired." ANY QUESTIONS as to why they got Spammy back instead of DAVE? HAHAHAHA!!!! SHEMP is in control.

FUCK YOU Van Hagar!!!!!

Jesus Christ, how much was that waste of life paid to write that jerk off fest..........."Sammy can play more than a mike stand" Yeah, I bet he can........
