van halen 1974
 

I read a book about Van Halen and their first tour.... it was insane, and boy did they get screwed over by the record companies. They made the big time and came back from their first world tour and found themselves in debt.

Those leotards were firmly up there. Higher and higher. Loved that Lee Roth and Hagar recorded together to. Was a huge fan though never saw Hagar live but saw David solo with Steve Vai and then Gary with band years later.

Well that was fukin Epic! TY

not an uncommon story :2 cents:

Nice! :thumbsup

Same thing happened to Tom Petty. Unknowingly signed his song rights away and went broke touring. Managed to get his song rights back when he went bankrupt and screwed them right back.

Damn man.. Van Halen, Motley Crew, Ratt, AC/DC, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden..

Shit I'd give anything to experience that time again. Partying Spring Break 1989 at Daytona beach. Girls (hot girls) everywhere and everyone just having an insane time.

No one offended by everything or seeking a safe zone.. You could actually have fun.

I lament those times too bro!! There hasn't been a fucking rock star in 20 years wtf.
Now it's all SJWs and bland soundalike pop crap. Yay.
