Watching him right now is a little embarrassing. As embarrassing as it was ever since post "Women and Children First." Dude became a caricature of himself and it's only gotten worse. I'm assuming it was the groupies flocking to his on-stage flamboyance that turned them into histronics. That and MTV. It seemed that Dave loved the camera and the limelight more than life itself. However, he obviously loves it and it shows. Which is not a bad thing. If it works for the fans and the band then I guess everything is okay. |

When they were here maybe 3 years ago, he actually looked kind of chubby. Now, he looks like a normal, in-shape guy. Most people sure don't look that good at 60. Last edited by cosmo20002; 04-04-2015 at 07:01 PM.. |

Sammy came out I was actually surprised at how good he was. His stuff was always 'ok' to me, but he just sounded great live. Put on a great show. Then DLR came out and I was completely underwhelmed. He was just--weird. And just kind of awkward. He's always been weird off-stage, but on stage, he just was not what I expected. |

I'm not a musician, but from what I can see and hear, the guy looks like he can play. I've seen some clips of him on guitar and drums too--looks like he can just flat-out play anything. And he does a decent impression of Michael Anthony's vocals. From what I've read, he was really the one that kick-started the whole reunion with Roth and got dad to get off his ass and start finishing songs that had been laying around since the 70s and finally put out a new album with Roth. |

It was like stepping back in time, like they'd never left... Dave is the perfect fit for that band. |

Ok...i wanted to check in with this thread again. I caught a little flak for saying that Dave sucked, so i wanted to expand a little on that.
First, let me say that i always have been a huge VH fan. Back in the day, the walls of my room were covered with posters and many of those were VH posters. Have seen them live with both Dave and Sam and thoroughly enjoyed both renditions. That being said...for me...VH was never about the singer regardless of who it was...it was all about Ed and what he did/does with the guitar. In thinking about this thread i went back and listened to both of the Dave solo albums in my collection.... Skyscraper and A Little Aint Enough. I hadn't listened to them in a while and i still enjoyed them both. I also went back and listened to the Dave era VH albums i have...no complaints there either...Dave is fine. My complaint was simply with the current state of Dave and that he flat out doesn't sound very good. I know some of you disagree with that, but after watching the Ellen clip again...i still stick with my original post that Dave sucks. However, yesterday i was driving listening to HairNation on XM radio and they were talking about this very same subject. I am not a Twitter person, but apparently (according to HairNation) the reaction there was very similar to my opinion. Anyway, as Luc Carl was discussing it...he said something like..."ya, he can't really do it anymore, but he was great so we should all give him a pass". So...guess i'll go with Luc Carl. |

Listen to the Ellen concert and then any VH concert from the mid-80's.
Dave sounds the same. |
