Fave song: Either Dance the Night Away or Jump

Fave Album: I only own the best of vol. 1, but I'm gonna go for Van Halen I. I think Eruption is a cool way to start an album, and it has a few good songs on it, including a good cover of You Really Got Me, originally by the Kinks.

Frontman: David Lee Roth was the best in my opinon followed by Sammy Hagar. Glad he's got back with them, seeing as they couldn't get Roth back.

Rock Legends?: Well they were a very good band, and I really would like to see them live one day, but they wouldn't be in my top five rock bands.

Favourite song has to be Panama

Favourite album is always between Van Halen and 1984, but today I'm going for 1984

David Lee Roth can never be beaten.

Legends? I've always considered them as legends.

"Poundcake" (memories of a big love...) and "Right now" are my faves. I always liked Sammy Hagar, although his voice is a bit hard (have no other word) after some time of listening. Especially on the Balance album. "Don't tell me (what love can do)" is a good example.
David has a great voice, but he is not as sympathetic as Sammy what I get from the DVD and interviews. Sammy is just a funny guy.

"Ice cream man" has to be my favourite song from the Roth era, along with "Panama" and, well, "Jump".

Don't know if the band is a legend, but Eddie is for sure! Many of the stuff is not that special, but great guitar work, which gets a bit boring after some time.... (don't beat me, I play guitar myself and have full respect!)
