David Lee Roth Just Made A Crazy Mini Movie

Apparently David Lee Roth was bored, because he just released a mini movie where he plays a milk-chugging hero assassin. Of course, the movie is subtitled because all the actors are Japanese... and Diamond Dave only has one line... also spoken in Japanese.

Dave probably does speak pretty good Japanese as he has a home in Tokyo, but still. You just have to see this... batshit crazy and epic all at once.

Nothing comes closer to being a supernova of pure showmanship than DLR.

Bad vocals? Check. Lesser stage moves? Check. But a completely rock n' roll approach to life, a devil may care and hair plugs be plugged or glued or stitched or extended approach to showmanship? Check and check and check until you stop acting like his failings are worse than your successes.

Hagar wishes, really wishes, that his attitude matched DLR. So he creates a vibe that approximates what an over-the-hill DLR can still deliver. Yes. Hagar sings better. Yes. He is interested in dating Eddie full-time. Yes. He wants to go out on a few dates to see what happens. DLR? Full speed ahead, with a lot of other stuff that suggests that he is the Metal God that doesn't let reality mess with history.

Van Halen are better now, serving up their past, than they were dealing in the present with Hagar. Why? Simple. DLR.

it's not batshit or epic. either you remember that if you stay attuned, then you're in tune...or you don't.

and random gay thought:

I think that in the final scene, dave should've walked away sans towell. he's trying to show off his dragon back tattoo, but if he wants to show the full monty (frontal or not) he should have given the viewers an ass shot. it'll give me (for one) inspiration when I'm on that fuckin' treadmill. just bein'...real

When I watched this on Youtube, it was listed as a trailer. It could be a preview for a longer epic. I can't say it's very interesting except for the use of the music from "The Yakuza Papers" when Dave displays the pistol.
