DLR on Jay Leno...

[circle of the tyrants]

God help me, I loved it. I thought Dave sounded a little crazy, but he looked like a million bucks and the banjo player was killer.

Can't wait to see what Ed has to say about this!

[Soap]

Very different but good, overall I surprisingly like it.
However, I wouldn't pay to see that classic VH played like that.

I'm sorry but I was thinking, "WTF??" when I saw it. I even flipped to another channel and back during it because I couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. Diamond Dave goes Country? I'm still baffled as I write this.

I've got my copy of "Strummin' With The Devil" on order!

I really liked that, although DLR frightens me nowadays. He has the "Joker Permasmile"--gotta be high on something other than life.

His vocal limitations also stand out much more in this environment. The band was great, though. I doubt Ed cares, as long as the royalty checks come his way.

Eh... not too bad really. I kinda liked it.
Dave still looks like a game show host.

Brilliant! +1 I thought it was very good and his vocals really standout. It looked like he was having a good time being on stage again. It's like trying to keep a tiger locked up in a cage. Let em' out!
The band was very good as well. Maybe he can get country shred artist, Alvin Lee to do some chickin' pickin' in his band.

I had to fukking laugh last night...... I just gave Mrs. STLKINGV the vein ladden meat pipe and flipped on Leno...... OMG, I'm thinking that Eddie and Alex need to regroup with this guy and Mike...... As was said in the post above, "Dave is like a caged tiger".... No doubt!!!

Bring back the mighty V~H~!!!!

I reckon he's starting to look like Alan Alda!

[horns666]

I got two words for Van Halen..IF there will ever be a Van Halen

Jorne Lande ..he's the ONLY one that could pull Ed and co. out of their coffin.

Sam or Dave..yeesh!

[SEEGERMANY]

If Eddie has any teeth left in his head, they fell out when he saw this.

I thought it was Terrence Hill!

He did seem a little "Vegas" in his performance. Something about the way he moved.

I did enjoy it though. The band was great, and Dave seemed to genuinely enjoy himself.

But Dave always acts like that...even if he's the the reciever of a prison gang rape..that's just Dave..

I was playing my guitar when he came on. I missed the introduction, and didn't recognize the song or Dave until the chorus. After recognizing both it was like watching a car wreck! The banjo solo at the end of the 1st solo mimicking the keyboard solo was pretty cool.
