@@fredthompson1387 This is some of the most backward bulls hit I've ever read, and I read a lot of the abhorrent, execrable SJW garbage!

Wonder how many of us will be able to move around like DLR when we get his age. I am amazed that he is still so entertaining and has so much energy. He might go to nursing homes to entertain but he won't be living in one. #davidleeroth4life

What happened ? Dave could Really dance in the 70's and 80's. He's looked Awkward ever since he started that sliding around on the small wooden floor on stage in 2012.
Dave, what a character! I’ve always enjoyed his personality, his music, and the Dave history. He’s an enjoyable musician and I’m always waiting for his next misstep.
@@paulcarlin5181 Very sad & true. I have the greatest respect for his achievements and being the frontman in Pasadena's Greatest Rock Band. He also smokes more green than anyone I've ever met... whatever that implies.
Don't even watch KC and the Sunshine Band in KY in 2024.....just don't. That is 2min of my life I cannot get back. Bless their heart. Man needs to know to say when.
Lol that's the same guy. I cant put my finger on that guy. Hes very different. Boisterous in Vanhalen loudmouth . Now he's dancing making videos. Lol . Have you seen juniors grades?
My Man! I love you so much Dave!💋 This truly just lifted me up from such a funk I've been in since my dog Bo is not feeling well. Thank You a million times over. God Bless You!
Once again...the man hits the mark. Let's just call a spade a spade. After everything we've been through the last 4 years, this country would fall apart without DLR. And where are our "I learned everything I needed to know in life from Diamond Dave" t-shirts? We ordered 8. One for each day of the week and 2 on Sunday. ;)
Diamonds are intrinsically worthless… Dave Lee Roth is priceless 🥚🐣🕊️ The only man who’s genius and personality could outshine Eddies virtuoso … Shine on Dave
Uhh, with all due respect I don’t think so actually. But then I’m biased because I’m a guitar player who picked up the instrument in 1979 because of watching Ed play eruption onstage in London… Although I would admit to be fair to him that in the late 1970 s and right thru the 1980s DLR was the most colourful, insane, physically kinetic, and most entertaining wild frontman in rock music. All the other hair band clones who tried to imitate him afterwards resembled his dwarfs running around his feet in imitator stage costumes. And it was funny watching them trying to be as athletic as him because they would fall over trying to compete with him like that singer from Poison did..…lol…And DLR would always offend the British Rock press at live gigs which was always delightful because they could be so elitist and pompous….They would come to VH gigs expecting grandiose political statements from singers thinking they were ‘Martin Luther King’ and they would get stuff like -‘Michael Jackson ain’t SH*T on heavy metal baby’ !,,,lol….or ‘Let me hear everybody say YEAH’ ! (Donnington) -‘YEAH ‘ !!! ….DLR - ‘let me hear everybody say SHIAT’ ! …(Donnington) - ‘SHIAT’ !! …DLR - ‘let me hear everybody say wELL F*CK’ !…‘WELL F*CK’ !!!…dlr - ‘there, you feel a lot BETTER now don’t you’ ?…lol…And the collars of the British rock press would tighten, and in the columns in NME and Sounds you could feel the steam coming out of their ears,…lol
@@walterevans2118 Walter! Thanks for your reply and point counter point of course you are also correct! I am also a guitar and synth player. Recently naming my novation summit “Eddie Van Halen” after he passed. I cried. I was born in 76 and by the mid 80’s 1984 and 5150 made it into my Walkman via tapes from a Spanish market. My little ears soaked up those vibes and developed a love for both albums. You are indeed erudite as Dave had a swagger and style that was off the wall and walked the walk like the trail blazer he is. Yet I believe it’s how he talked the talk that no one, not even Elons genius and Witt could out Dave , Dave. I love Eddie, we all love Eddie. He’s not someone you can copy. Even the best can’t out Eddie , Eddie. Something about his touch, tone, timing … Yet Eddie is no Yamashita Kazuhito whom I believe to be the greatest guitarist Earth has produced… Rock on Walter 🎖️ I hope you still play as much as you can Best, Mike
@@michaelnewham6958 Actually its Paul but not to worry. Yes Ed was such an incredible innovator wasn't he Mike ? Yes, I was upset when I heard Ed had passed away too. I had to go out for a walk after hearing it on the news at 9pm so my Father wouldn't see how upset I was....yes Ed was very difficult to imitate but of course he would have said players shouldn't try to sound like me but like themselves.

this man had a hand in my upbringing, and consequently shaped my attitudes towards life in modern day America. I'm pleased this is NOT a Howard Stern video.
It would have at least funny if it were Howard Stern instead of this ass hat clown that is basically a Rock and Roll Clown like on the Adult Swim metal Cartoon man imagine how great Van Halen could have been if they just had a singer and or Song writer and not just a Guitar legend.
Didn't matter with Vanhalen . Eddie VH blew people away Dave was just the guy they needed . A big mouth show case guy to attract attention but the attention fell back on Eddie's playing. Sammy didn't have a big enough mouth to attract that kinda a attention back then. Better vocals wouldn't cut it. You got to be the ballsy frontman like Dave was. Case over for Dave over Sammy..
You gotta give this Dude a lot of credit! He’s having the time of his life and he doesn’t give a flying F what anyone thinks! 🎉
. . . ughhhhhhhhhh
This boy is the shit try doing this in todays world man they 80s was the best
I don’t want to live in a world where there’s no David Lee Roth…knowing he’s out there gives me comfort.
This is a guy that's been there, done that, and has absolutely zero F$&@s to give! He earned it!!
True he is a legend but I feel sorry Everytime he jumps around like he is 25....I feel so embarrassed......let go man

Im just glad the madman is still alive and kicking
Diamond Dave changed my life when I was about 6 or 7 and first saw Jump on MTV. Been in love with Van Halen since.
I was 6 when Jump came out and it made me a fan of Diamond Dave and Van Halen
I would love to see him live !

I love you so much Dave!💋

Doing the millionaire dance love it David
I saw Van Halen every tour through 1984. I also saw some Diamond Dave shows over the years. I grew up on Van Halen! ❤️
Me, too!
Good for you! So, do you want a cookie now? Or a star on your forehead??

Looking great, Dave! Spreading joy as usual🎉.
Thank you DLR for these amazing videos of you. They will be here for ever after we all are long gone for people like me to enjoy
