I'm just going to say, I love David. I'm a Blackman that was born and raised in LA, and grew up listening to him in junior high school. My parents moved to Pasadena where I got a job at Musicplus, and he came in and we struck up a conversation. He asked me what's new thing that people are listening too, and I had been waiting for the Temple of the Dogs album to get released, and had just dropped. I recommended that to him, and the next time he came in he yelled out where's Bill. He gave me props. It made my century. What a down to earth cool man!!!!!!

Omg the last couple minutes he mentioned a piano at Auschwitz. My grandfather was one of the US soldiers that freed the prisoners. When I was a boy I remember in his story he mentioned a prisoner auditorium. He said they were clearing buildings looking for Germans hiding not knowing they had fled. There was a stage with a tarp covering something big. His buddy aimed his rifle while my grandpa quickly pulled the tarp off. He said it was a ‘beautiful piano’. He tapped a few keys and it was the best sound he ever heard. In his Italian accent he said ‘Can you imagine after all the filth and hell, bombs and bullets, what that sounded like to us?’ Thank you for this interview DLR.

When your talking about DLR , about 10% of people who take the time to drop an opinion areas on the fence. They can take him or leave him . About 20% can't stand him , and the other 70% ( such as myself) love him. I'm one of the worlds biggest VH fans still to this day , almost as I was in my teens thru my 40's. My favorite member has always been the engine of that Formula 1 racing car Eddie. Dave was a close 2nd. Those 2 together did more for rock music than 80% of even the most die hard of VH fans will ever know. I made it a mission to dig into this bands history , their bio's and most anything I could get my hands on. When I see a person wearing an old genuine concert shirt that you can't get anywhere else, I offer to buy it off of them on the spot ! How many people you know are that ridiculous ! I don't live in LA , and I'm not $$ loaded , but I have still managed to have seen them 14 times in concert , including seeing them 3 time in a 5 day span (long story), so if you want to know anything (within human reason). Just ask away. Getting back on track , I have DLR's disease, which has me getting off of the subject and rambling on a bit , but their history ranks among the top acts to have ever climbed onto a stage . Eddie commenting on Dave said it best in an interview once. Somebody asked him about Dave antics to which Eddie responded ,. "" His rambling on and his Attention Deficit Disorder, you ask "" ? Well , Ive been asked that many times and after thinking about it so many times a., I guess I would describe it all like this...... Don't mistake his antics for lack of intelligence. Dave is very creative as I think him and I have made some great music together. So just remember that he's creative, intelligent, and overall a well read guy. But sometimes something short circuits and he has a little trouble connecting all the dots "" !

It's really a trip to learn that the horrors of WWII helped spawn the utter global joy that was Van Halen. Fate works in very strange ways. Everybody talks about Roth's ego, and it did reach historic proportions, but when he was young and hungry, he was real smart and humble to soak in all that information from available dojos as he calls them. Many cocky young men want to do it all themselves, and fail because of it.

What Dave got right from the start is that he wasn't a singer. He was an entertainer. With a gargle whiskey and broken glass for breakfast blues voice. Coupled with the best technical guitarist in the world that no one knew about yet. During an age of punk when good musicians tried to hide it. There was just one of him and the band Van Halen in the whole genre. They would become a genre. Quiet Riot, Motley Crew, the entire Sunset Strip scene and hair bands all happened because of Van Halen. I'm not sure they would have without VH's contrary success.

No question LA hair metal would not have existed without Van Halen (and no band ever equalled them, though songs here and there were great). I was a kid when Van Halen came out and I saw the imitations start flying into and through the entire 80s. It became why an underground started and eventually spawned Nirvana 13 years later. It was inevitable VH would be imitated when a band hits with that much force and success. Metallica would have a million imitators also. Roth's dedication came through in his lyrics if not his antics. He wrote some truly great working class lyrics.

I enjoyed Dave's voice because of it's roughness. I still listen to those old school Van Halen songs and like his gargling broken glass voice. And of course EVH on lead guitar. The backup bass and drums are not exactly impressive in terms of showing off like Eddie and Dave, but they are technically perfect.

Dave has lived a very interesting life. I remember hearing an interview with him where he said he knew early on he didn’t want to use his fame and wealth to get “things” like houses and cars, etc . He wanted to have experiences. So he took treks through the jungle, did mountain climbing, was a paramedic for several years, moved to Japan to live and study. He’s got some quirks but the guy has lived a very interesting life.
