Livin’ the dream
xxxxDavid Lee Roth is finally back at the helm of the juggernaut of rock that is Van Halen. For the first time in 22 years the world is once again in harmony, as Van Halen totally shreds North America with their arsenal of killer licks and galloping chops.
This is for the believers…
I want to meet the man that decided Roth should ride that giant microphone like some fucked up elephantitis victim. I’d like to shake his hand and say “well done”.

To his credit Diamond Dave’s chops sound pretty good. Sure, he’s older than dirt and has fallen prey to the same loss of range that Robert Plant and Sting have. But, what has caused the extreme inbalance in the Force that has caused Eddie’s guitar playing to sound like an elephant farted through a clarinet.
And DLR’s giant microphone antics? No one that is sober would ever pull that shit…that guy is as strung out as ever. A sober guy’s brain would never produce the following thought — “Damn, look at that giant inflatable microphone, it sorta looks like a big cock. I bet this crowd of thirty somethings would find it really funny if I sat on this giant phallus and hopped around like I was Porsche Lynn. Ok, here I go…weeee, this is fun, but tiring. Damn, I can’t keep this shit up, perhaps I will just pick it up and carry it…”
You would NEVER catch David Gilmour climbing on the back of a giant inflatable pig and grinding it like his balls needed a good scratch.
