The Last Person to post wins XVIII

I liked this and showing my age at the same time. Lol. I hated when he left Van Halen, they never were the same for me after.

Side note: Sammy Hagar was ok, but not.
I probably liked the music better with Sammy. Probably was it just wasn't Van Halen. I saw them on the 5150 tour back in 86 I think it was. They put on a excellent show.

My wife seen Van Hagar in Dec 85 with BTO as a warm up. She said they, Van Hagar, kept running off stage and were clearly stoned out of their minds. When they completed their set, the crowd was chanting BTO! BTO! BTO! Then BTO reappeared and played another encore. Of course, I was in survival school in AZ at the time and missed the whole dang thang. LOL

I am a staunch Van Halen fan and hated it when they and David Lee parted company.

I think it was the same tour. I saw them at the old Municipal Auditorium in Nashville.

Difference in ages, but neither is wrong. 😁
I loved them with DLR too. Here's the thing, we used to always MTV on in our living. When Roth came out with California Girls and Gigolo, my mom turned into a DLR fan. And it forced me to reevaluate taste in music. Of course she was right, but I couldn't admit that at the time.
 
I've also listened to my share of bluegrass and country music. For a brief time, I was an announcer and station engineer at a C&W station.

Speaking of commercials, does everyone remember when they had the long distance commercials on constantly? AT&T vs MCI. They got to the point where they were every time they went to commercial. Then they had all the 10-10 numbers. They were so annoying!

That's the way I feel about car insurance commercials now.
 
I'm partial to DLR Van Halen because that's the Original VH. But Van Halen with Hagar did Rock.
As least there was less screeching when Roth left. They were just another pop hair band. I’m more inclined to listen to real rock bands.
