RUSHHEAD666 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Sorry for my misuse of the word "wanker." Hey it's all good everyone has their opinion. To me Van Halen will always be about the Roth years. Of course Sammy is on heck of a talented guy.I'm just not s big fan. I saw his last tour when they opened with Montrose tunes.Denny was there. Church.Everyone but Ronnie of course but Dave Meniketti filled in and stole the show from Sammy. After that it was all downhill. A commercial shitty setlist. I left early. I will never see Sammy again. Edited March 26, 2015 by RUSHHEAD666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todem Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) I would love to see Eddie in great form again as the last 2 times I saw him Eddie was a complete shell of himself. Eddie is one of my biggest influences (along with Alex, Gilmore and Page). But I can't stomach DLR's vocals. He is so bad live. I mean pathetic bad. I won't pay 100 bucks plus for a ticket to that crap. It's embarrassing IMO. He can't even make up for it with his great stage presence from the late 70's and early 80's. That has been gone for decades. He destroys the vibe and sound with grade school level out of tune vocals. I can't even classify his singing as actual rock vocals in the current state his voice is in. He was never even a real lead vocalist IMO even in his heyday. He was a spectacle. The girls loved him. Now he is a bald old fool. eeee god it's just so bad. Creepy bad. So I will pass. Enjoy the show to those that going.

fraroc Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 If you think Dave should hang it up now because of his singing voice, than he should have hung it up back in 1980 because DLR WAS NEVER A GOOD LIVE SINGER. That's the one thing about Van Halen I'll agree with Eddie Trunk on. Dave is an amazing showman, but he never was a f***ing Luciano Pavarotti.

RUSHHEAD666 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I hate it when people compare David Lee Roth to Jim Dandy. Roth blows Dandy Pussy Candy away!! I agree. Roth isn't Rob Halford or Freddie Mercury but he's the greatest frontman of all time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I just watched those videos including the take 1 performance where Roth messed up his nose, I still couldn't make out how it happened though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandydog Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Eddie is on top of his game !!! http://youtu.be/R6RaoMXV87Q Eddie sounded great. DLR was absolutely terrible. I saw the 2012 tour and Roth was bad then, but this was ten times worse. I will always have my memories of the 1984 tour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Why does Roth do that high pitched yowling? He's starting to sound like Scooby Doo. He never used to do that back in the day. I think it began when he was recording this album: This I identify is where Roth started his high pitched Scooby dooby doooo yowling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I didn't even know they were going to be on Jimmy Kimmel last night and happened to see them come on. Wow, Eddie looked to be in super good shape and sounded great. It was fun to see him with Wolfgang. Thank goodness the Van Halen family was carrying the vocals because David Lee Roth was awful, not that he was ever that good but really, it seemed like he was just croaking out the words. His stage presence has morphed into very creepy IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stage presence has morphed into very creepy IMO. During "Dance The Night Away" he asked a girl to get onstage and dance with him. She said no about 5 times! LOL! He finally had the security guys drag her onstage. Very creepy! In the early 80's every girl in the crowd would have charged the stage for a chance to 'Dance with Dave'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
