It is a wonder that we didn't get killed as kids blasting "Got One Foot Out The Door Tryin' to hit the road" while driving in the car.

Hagar by miles, he is more of a singer and less of a clown (never could stand Roth)

I know that Cherone used to be a member of Extreme - a band I have never heard (they released their albums in a period when I did not keep up with the music world. However, I've heard very good things about their album Pornograffiti, and I'd definitely be interested in hearing it.
 
It's a great album Raff and well worth getting hold of. Melodic metal with a funky vibe and some fantastic guitar playing.
 
Oh yeah, nearly forgot, I voted Roth. I much preffered Hagar when he was in Montrose.

Diamond Dave.
 
The ones unfamiliar with Cherone please check out Pornograffitti and Three Sides To Every Story by Extreme. Amazing 5 star albums.

Being that I grew up in So Cal during the early VH days...I pick Diamond Dave all day long. Hagar is great, and I enjoy that period of VH also....but the first VH albums are simply classic So Cal rock. I remember seeing them at a local high school before they made it big playing a dance or some show...don't remember......Eddie is still the man, that stuff he was doing with a 6 string was years ahead of its time.
 
Although they lost me at the US Festival when DLR could not finish any of the songs cause he was so wasted.....he was being booed so bad it was actually funny....Regardless, 80% of the 350,000 people there came to see the Scorpions anyway, which they stole that show.
 
Diver Down is one of my VH favs.

Got to be David Lee Roth for me, his voice, temperament, and dare I say it...image suits Van Halen best. Not that there's anything wrong with Sammy Hagar, whose vocal ability is considerably better, I think, but Davy has more of a glam metal voice, which is a better fit than Hagar's heavy blues voice. The third dude on the list, I have no clue about...so I'm guessing there's something I don't know?

Van Halen released one album titled Van Halen 3 with Gary Cherone as the lead singer.  He was originally the lead singer for the band Extreme, and left Extreme to join Van Halen and replace Sammy Hagar.  It went over like a lead balloon, but the album actually isn't all that bad.

He should have stayed in Extreme......by that point Diamond Dave wanted to come back. VH was pretty much done by then also.
You hate to see a band with so much talent just fade away like they did....no closing/final tour/album or anything.....just gone.
 
RIP Van Halen......

I am wondering what their status is at the moment.  I know that they did a tour 1 or 2 years ago with Diamond Dave back singing and Wolfgang Van Halen playing bass guitar.  Is that the last that we will hear from them, or are they going into the studio with that line-up to record some new material?
