Laughing My ASS off!!!!!!!!!!!
I know Eddie has definitely said some funnier things, but I was listening to the 03-29-94 show from Florida, and Eddie says, "We're gonna play a new song, if you don't like it, you know, sorry you can buy the new David Lee Roth record, we don't give a fuck"! I've been laughing about this all morning!! One never knows what's gonna come out of Eddie's mouth!!! Keep it comin'!

Now, that's funny.
Or pathetic.
Both.
the early days of Van Halen were fucking phenomenal!!! David is one of the best front men of all time!!!
Sorry I can't agree with you on this one!! In my opinion, David Lee Roth is an assclown!!!
Van Halen definately rocked the 80s. Saw them 4 times with Roth and every show was great.
wow! i wish i was lucky enough to see them back in the day but i was too young.
His whole image is that of a good time, party bad boy surfer.
He never, ever claimed to be anything other than that.
Never claimed to be a great musician.
Never claimed to be a profound lyricist.
Never claimed to be the voice of a generation.
In Van Halen's early years (mostly the first three or four albums), Van Halen was great. Their music rocked and DLR was one hell of a showman. I saw them at the Palladium in NYC on the VH II tour ( Blackfoot as the opening band) and they rocked. Great show. Blackfoot kicked mighty ass!!!
But Van Halen's music got more and more watered down and less interesting after the third or fourth album. As well, DLR became more and more of the ass clown; you all know now.
His lyrics are laughable. Always were. When he had Stevie Vai in his band, they rocked! That was one hell of a band. DLR was of course ....the same entertainer/assclown.
Let's not pretend DLR should have been something else or that he thought of himself as something else. The guy is and always was all Hollywood/Vaudeville.

One of my favorites. Eddie is in rare form throughout that whole show.
"Look at all the f***ing tans. That could make a nice couch out of you guys."
and of course the "Real Jeff Ament" speech.
Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"
It's all about the way he says it. The quote itself does it no justice.
Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"
Chris Moore: What?
Marcus: What kind of question is that?
Chazz: Who's side did you take: Halen or Roth?
Chris Moore: ...Van Halen
Ian: HE'S A COP!
David Lee Roth rules.

Dave did disappoint me telling the same jokes tour after tour.
Here's an example that did have me laughing my ass off though:
Quoted from memory so not exact, "Hey hold on, somebody just threw something, I think it was a quarter. Man that could put my eye out with all these lights shining down. Hey but that's alright, I saw the guy that threw it and after the show, I gonna fuck your girlfriend."
At the time we all knew Dave probably could, but he did use it on his solo tour again.
HAHAHAHA. Gotta love the reference from "Airheads". Such an underrated movie.......
Greatest Turd Captain of the 80's maybe...but frontman...C'mon...Not even close.
airheads was awesome and so was van halen back in the day

Who was better in those bad hair-band years... Brett Michaels, Vince Neil, Rob Halford? Not much competition for Roth. I'd Say Axl Rose has a shot, but he was too hit and miss in concert. Actually, I believe DLR was probably a big influence for a lot of the hair metal front men.
