After seeing Van Hagar headlining the Monsters of Rock tour in 1988 at the Pontiac Silverdome, I have boycotted EVERYTHING Hagar has done!! He had the nerve to TALK the lyrics to "Running with the Devil" and "Jamies Crying"!! I was in complete disbelief screaming WHAT THE !! He completely BUTCHERED 2 of my favorite Van Halen songs. Alex and Eddie were too drunk/high to care apparently. I took it as a HUGE slap in the face to each and every old VAN HALEN fan in the audience. They even let Hagar perform some of his solo songs during that show and he still had the balls to do that? I lost all respect for him and refuse to listen to anything he does anymore.
Seriously, if Ripper had done something like that (which he NEVER would have because he has too much respect for Priest), KK, Glenn, Ian and Scott would have dragged him off stage and pounded him until he SANG the songs CORRECTLY! But PRIEST has CLASS and RESPECTS their fans and took their time to find someone who could fill Rob's incredible shoes.
So for me, it's David Lee Roth! Sammy can take his huge ego and shove it!
