"Nice try, what did you just look up?" ~David Lee Roth
One of the first rockstars to guest on the Joe Rogan Experience. "Diamond" David Lee Roth, singer from Van Halen, starts off taking us through the humble beginnings of the legendary rockband. Taking their name from the Van Halen brothers, the band rose to prominence in the 70's and 80's through Eddie Van Halen's incredible guitar skills and Dave becoming the prototypical frontman. He would go on to his own solo projects, returning to Van Halen in the early 2000's
A surprisingly cultured and curious Roth shows off his interest on sumo wrestling, gives the details on his training with swords, and generally what it's like for him living in Japan. After Howard Stern was taken off terrestrial radio, Roth took over his show for four months (before he was fired). As with most episodes of Rogan, the conversation will eventually lead to MMA and opinions on nutrition.
For someone so famous, David Lee Roth comes off very humble and down to Earth. This is a must listen for any 80's rock fan.
