I used to not like Sammy for some reason. Was always a "VH is only with DLR" and thought Sammy's solo stuff was goody butt rock. But the more I've seen him on social media I've come to appreciate he seems to be a good down to earth dude and someone I'd love to have a beer with (on the beach?). Would definitely would go to a show.

Chris Cornell leading VH would have been fascinating.

Can't believe SH is 76. WTF.

Nice, I'm not the star struck type (give zero shts about actors, but I am fascinated by musicians) but impress me with the musicians you've come across . Pretty cool.

I've been lucky enough to meet a bunch of my musical heroes. Only a few had me truly star struck though.

He's not a dick actually, he's just a gigolo.

Super nice and shockingly short- him and Mike both!

We've seen Sammy a LOT and still try to see him every chance we can. He is just fun!

Back in the 80s, pretty much all you had was Hit Parader and Circus magazine to learn about your favorite rock stars, so you didn't really get a good insight into who they truly were. But just on their public personas, Diamond Dave was, hands down, the best frontman in rock n roll at the time (among his contemporaries, not including Jagger, etc.). Like you, I was Team Dave. There was no shame in backing Roth in 1986.

But neither father time nor access to info have been good for Dave. He's a very strange cat these days. Sammy, OTOH, has aged magnificently and comes off as one of the coolest guys around.

Definitely one of them. Eddie Van Halen, Lenny Kravitz, and Steven Tyler are in that list too.
