Roth fans outnumber Hagar fans

Ignoring the whole 'it's not a popularity contest thing' Hagar solo is a bar band. Hagar with the Van Halen's makes it money on the back of Roth with Van Halen.

My guess is that 80% of people prefer Roth with Van Halen but there are 50% that will tolerate Hagar because they are Ed Heads. The people that prefer Hagar make up a 20% demographic of people that have a childlike taste in music and cite their other favorite bands as Loverboy, Richard Marks and Phil Collins.

In terms of record sales and fans, yes that missing 30% Dave or grave types make up a disproportianate amount of the people that post here.

So what? That's the whole point.

You're talking about people with a passion for music rather than a passion for donuts and easy listening. Oprah fan Delores and her car salesman hubby don't post here? Good.

Cheers!

Okay if Sammy with VH in 2004 is equal to Richard Marx then DLR with VH in 2004 would be equal to White Lion.

Judging by the INCREASING # of sheep roaming around these message boards... hmmm.....

My own experience tells me that more chicks than dudes prefer the Hagar era VH to the DLR era VH. Not surprising they would choose the melodic, toned-down, smoove, lite-version of Van Hagar over the balls-to-the-wall, testosterone driven, phallic shaft driving, unabashed, unadulterated pure hi-octane version of Van Halen that the true connoisseur of the original incarnation of the band the true fans have grown up on and know and love!! At least 70% DLR-era fans, I would venture. To put it in another context, it's like that one buddy of yours that you used to hang out with, go drinking with, hit the titty bars with, play poker with who ended up getting married and is now completely, ultimately, unequivacably pussy-whipped to the extreme! It's always 'Yes, dear' or 'No, dear' and instead of pounding brewskies with you, he has to go with the little woman to the mall, or some party of one of her girlfriends, etc....

VH with Dave is True Rock n' Roll!!!!!!!

Every true rock fan knows that, Sammy with VH is half ass version of the band.

I don't know why the hell Eddie wanted Sammy instead of Dave, if your going to reunite the Band go all the way, don't reunite the half ass version of the band.

Eddie should of stayed in the gave smoking and drinking beer, if he wasn't going to reunite the "REAL" VH.

I disagree that Van Hagar was a half-assed version of the band, i think when sammy hagar came in he had no plans of being anything like Van Halen was before, i think its more correct to say its a completely different band, really the only common thread was that eddie could wail on the songs. To say that its a half assed version would mean that they were trying to emulate the previous version, which is clear they were not by the music they put out, completly different band.

As for the tour, i think the reason they went with Sam was because the opportunity presented its self. They knew they could make a few bucks if they would all suck it up and hit the road for a tour. The reports are coming out now that there is trouble within the band, and I think that just shows that this is something that is not the ideal situation. I also dont think that dave would have been the ideal situation either. I think it would be a battle of egos, Dave has a big one, and so does Ed. They mesh together so well when it comes to music, but they just butt-heads when it comes to everything else. I think that it is too much to ask Ed to swallow his pride and tour with dave, so that is why i dont think we will be seeing a dave VH tour anytime soon

When Dave stepped out on stage with Ed, Mike and Al at the MTV Awards in '96 the people stood up and applauded.

How many standing ovations has Van Hagar recieved? Empty seats don't count.

Sesh made a great point about the Eddie sheep, and they are the one's who wear the wool and turned their backs on Dave.
And i guarentee those fucking sheep would be screaming "I loved Dave most in VH" the day a reunion of the original lineup is announced.

I'll be the first to bitch slap them to the ground.
"I love Van Hagar because i'm an Ed Head" makes you a sheep, now deal with it and go graze my backyard before i gut your ass and make sweaters out of you.

But, 95% of the fans wanted to see Dave back in the band for a reunion. People who are paying the bucks to go see Van Hagar, are going to see Eddie and don't give a shit about Sammy.

Hagar got one HELL of a standing ovation after the Denver show a few weeks back, and from what i am hearing he is getting them all over the country, not that we are counting

Also, Tatu, those two russian lesbians got a standing ovation at the MTV awards, so it must not be too hard to pull

Yeah, but they all paid to be there and Baaaaaaaa in person. That doesn't count to me, lol.

Man, I would just love to see how fast tickets sell if Dave and the boys actually reunited. I have no reason to believe that they wouldn't sell out in hours, or even minutes in every town.

I'll concede that my post was made out of ignorance since the only part of the awards show i watched was the VH spot, lmmfao.

I admit there are some Spammy fans out there, but most fans for the most part want Dave back in the band. A Dave reunion would be all over the news and media, unlike the Van Hagar reunion is getting.

I think the only news it woudl be all over is MTV news, it would make all the music magazines, but then again, so has the hagar tour. I think the majority of fans are just glad to see VH back together regardless of who is at the helm, but there are alot of people who would rather see roth.
