Ofc you've gotta wade thru a lot of BS but there's some nuggets:

Interviewer: I still don't know what Michael Anthony sounds like, but although researchers are looking into it now, that's another point altogether.

Dave: Point well taken. He's gotta be playing though. He's, he goes through the movements. He's plugged in.


Interviewer: Why do they (Van Hagar) sound so bland?

Dave: Van Halen is trying to create product. I don't believe that their singer really thinks he's as hot as he proposes, hence the overblown proposals of his worth and the lack of others' worth.


Boy he had him nailed... ol' Spazzy definitely suffers from imposter syndrome, even to this day.

BTW Dave HATES Bon Jovi :lol:

I think he got asked 5 questions and his nonsensical rambling answers took 30 mins.

I'm sure... I never listen to these things. Transcripts are your friend.

Listening to a Diamond Dave interview is like picking peanuts out of shit.
