I guess Dave doesn’t need a couple hundred thousand dollars.

[dfwgator]

Give me a break, Dave.

[Az Joe]

Rock and roll and drama

[AlaskaErik]

I guess Dave doesn’t need a couple hundred thousand dollars.

Not when you're worth $70,000,000.

[Bobalu]

Hey Dave, way to act like a dick.

[Atticus]

I grew up on Led Zeppelin, the Beatles, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, The Who, and Pink Floyd. Why would I ever have the least bit of interest in David Bop, boze-de-boze-de-bop, se-de-bop Roth?

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

Roth’s making the mistake of thinking that he’s Van Halen, rather than just the ex-frontman. He never had much of a voice in the first place, and it is completely shot now. He’s lucky he got offered that gig.

[fireman15]

I hope Dave didn't hurt himself when he fell down fighting with the guy from Def Leopard. He should have just jumped.

[fireman15]

Sorry my Android device didn’t like the way DEF LEPPARD was spelled.

[Bob434]

isnt it roth that is pissed at kiss simmons too?

[Bobalu]

Now that is embarrassing...

[higgmeister]

I never listened to MÖTLEY CRÜE, DEF LEPPARD, METALLICA, POISON, and JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS that I am aware of.   I have no doubt that they were playing as background noise through the years.

Stay true and original David Lee Roth!

Least anyone balk my cutoff point for music was 1972.   If the group or act didn't exist by then I don't know them. Of course with a few individual standout songs through the years.

Not when you're worth $70,000,000.

He's bigger than U.S. Steel.

[Dogbert41]

When Van Halen first came out, I bought their album, but quickly got bored with them and never chose to listen to them again. I always thought of them as some sort of Hollywood music industry production. Seriously, I can’t think of one song that actually has any depth to it whatsoever. Their music was insulting to me.

[Veggie Todd]

Just give me some Waylon and Willie and The Boys.

[vigilante2]

So he admits to imitating Bono, Springsteen and Metalica.

[max americana]

“CRÜE’s first live dates since wrapping its 2014/2015 farewell tour.”

That’s why I hate it when bands say it’s their “farewell tour”. IT’S NOT AND NEVER WILL BE. Who says farewell to money?

[max americana]

Agreed. I personally know the grandson for Axl Rose’s original voice teacher and he still does voice coaching here in Hollywood for the anime industry and movies.

Told us straight up that MOST vocal chords for singers are shot, and to strain it further on a tour is a recipe for disaster. Told us even Mick Jagger at the most recent “tour” couldnt even say one word after each show. Another case in point is Jim Hetfield from Metallica. There’s a youtube video called “the voice that should not be” (pun to the thing that should not be’ song) and you’ll hear his voice lose it after 40 years of touring beginning from the 80’s.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Have it your way pal.
