DoctorOfSpin Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Alright, so this battle is a long and storied one but I'd love to know what you guys think. Obviously, you know where I stand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 David Lee Roth. I don't really think that Van Halen needed more guitarists than Eddie. And he's just a wild guy, that David Lee Roth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I grew up with David fronting VH. So, for me it'll always be Diamond Dave. However, lately he has a 'Carol Channing' thing going and scares the bejeesus out of me. He looks like a cross between Phyllis Diller and Joan Rivers. Stay out of the spotlight, Dave. Your scalp is showing..... Ken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuzikTyme Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Something's fishy. I tried to vote and it read that I couldn't because the same IP address already voted. I hadn't. Anyway, I'd vote Dave so far as which one I'd rather see front Van Halen because he IS/was Van Halen. But so far as the better vocalist, Sammy, hands down but not for Van Halen. No one can produce Dave's signature "OW!" Very vital to Running with the Devil as well as other pre-Hagar Halen songs. Dave didn't sing, he talked, but he did a hell of a mean "OW!" Besides, there's always wigs. David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen on the same stage. Two of the most conceited men I've ever seen live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindy17838 Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Dave, no one "eased the seat back" quite like Dave but now "he's unemployed" and "his folks arn't overjoyed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 However, lately he has a 'Carol Channing' thing going and scares the bejeesus out of me. He looks like a cross between Phyllis Diller and Joan Rivers. Stay out of the spotlight, Dave. Your scalp is showing..... Ken, you are absolutely hilarious...one of my favorite posters. I usually laugh out loud when I read one of your posts! Thanks! Dave was on a "Sopranos" episode and I didn't even recognize him, he looked so scary. Every time I think of Van Halen, I remember the movie "Better Off Dead" with John Cusack. There is a fantasy sequence where Cusack is working in a burger joint, and the burgers come to life and dance to "Everybody Wants Some" by VH. God bless the 80s! I have never seen this icon before and wanted to use it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Jayson_ Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I like Van Halen better with Dave, but I like Sammy way better as a person. :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 The last time we went over this whole "Dave or Sammy" thing, I ended up choosing Joe Perry - for other reasons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opiate Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 For me, it's Sammy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spawnfreak Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 I Like Dave Better - He had personality, pizazz, tight clothes, a screaming voice, and wild hair !! Sammy, well, he can't even drive 55! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
