The Gemini lead, John Kawzawzkzi or whatever his polish name is. He is a massive problem in the west today. People like him. His tweets represent a glimpse into his actual world view. Absolute self-hatred, which is easily generalized into hatred of a whole group.

Whites are uniquely evil. They commit atrocities. I am white, so I am evil etc.

It is easy to parody but as Google's fiasco demonstrates we may laugh but these are the actual people being employed and being promoted. He ran that project, so he must be held in high regard.

How much longer will we sit here and accept this without challenge. Say what you like about blacks but the minute you disrespect them they are all over it.

He's just part of Google's woke commie culture. If it wasn't him, it would be somebody else. That company is so screwed up, it's a wonder they are still in business.

Diamond Dave has been slowly shuffling towards insanity for decades now... too bad, he may not be the greatest singer of all time but he sure is one of the greatest performers in rock history.

I saw something yesterday about his retirement announcement that indicated he might be sick. So perhaps this is his way of saying goodbye?

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/david-lee-roth-retirement-announcement-1235993/

FTA: "“I’m throwing in the shoes,” Roth told the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Friday (August 1st), before sending the audio of his side of the conversation to the Van Halen News Desk fansite. “I’m retiring.”

“I am encouraged and compelled to really come to grips with how short time is, and my time is probably even shorter,” Roth said.

Roth also reflected on the loss of Eddie Van Halen, who died of cancer last October 6th. “I thought I might have been the first, frankly,” said Roth, who added that he’s been in frequent contact with Van Halen drummer Alex Van Halen. “I might have thought the Marlboro Man would’ve got me. Hey Ed, objects in the rear-view mirror are probably me. And my doctors, my handlers, compelled me to really address that every time I go on stage, I endanger that future.”"

Hmm, that is cryptic in a way that seems to indicate a health issue. Then again, maybe being old-as-shit qualifies as "a health issue".

I believe he was a heavy smoker, so it might be indication of cancer or COPD.

Oh that makes sense. How old is he now? Must be in his 70s. Given his lifestyle, I wouldn't be surprised if he's quietly dealing with significant health problems. We were lucky enough to get all of the VH material and his first 3 solo albums.

I think he’s 72 or 73, so yeah he’s getting up there

Yea, so in that case I wouldn't be surprised if the internet starts buzzing with "did you hear about David Lee Roth?" sometime soon.

I will buy you a cup of coffee after I get my next Social Security deposit for March.🤣 I feel the inflation; my credit card debt is mounting. Like the GAE’s interest rate has gone from .5 to 5.5 basis points in the last two years. A day or reckoning is coming for me and the GAE. Anyway, I feel that I could be your soul-mate ‘cause I’m in synch with virtually all your substack articles. I forwarded this David Lee Roth one to my best friend. He is a Beatles and classic rock aficionado. Didn’t know Keith Richards was best friends with John Lennon. Also David

Lee Roth is 69; he’ll turn 70 on October 10th. I loved your substack on Led Zeppelin. True:

Robert Plant was off-key and hoarse at Live Aid. But John Paul Jones was good. Their last reunion concert at London’s O2 Arena on December 10, 2007 was redemptive. I thank you for including the concert videos.

Hi Richard,

Thanks very much for the coffee, and yeah interest rates suck now.

I hope your friend likes the article, let me know.

Oh, I thought Roth was a few years older. I can't remember where I got that from, I think I saw it in an article. I hope he doesn't have cancer, but he doesn't look well at all. Very thin and drawn. I believe he was a heavy smoker at one point.

Glad you liked the concert videos, O2 was great! I had to include it, I couldn't leave them stuck in the Live Aid mess. So glad they did the O2 thing, if they hadn't Live Aid would have been where they were left in musical history and that would have been awful.

My nominee for King of Self-Parody in the realm of popular beat music would be Bono. No contest. And that is even without the WEF Lear-jetting. I heard a clip on Richie Allen's show the other day, with His Globalist Eminence launching into a dirge about outrage-topic-du-jour Navalny....accompanied on acoustic by Edge...and encouraging the audience to join him in the holy incantation. I don't know how the other band members can stand to be in the same room, to be honest. There was a time that I used to quite like U2, but I can hardly listen to their music now, apart from one or two exceptional tracks.

I despise Bono and U2! Hypocrites and frauds, all of them. I believe Bono was caught taking rides on Epstein's plane too. Bono and U2 are pure scum, I cannot stand their music. If one of their songs comes on the classic rock station, I immediately turn it off and listen to something else.

They've been scum for decades, they went out of their way to try to destroy underground band Negativland for making fun of their stupid shit. Negativland prank called them and caught them out, pretty hilarious, this was like in the 1980s or early 90s.

Don' remind me of that shit, I had to use that trick or whatever it was to hide it from my account. I don't think you could really delete it, but you could make it so it wasn't visible or whatever.

Tim Cook is an absolute asshole for pulling that crap.

Hopefully a guy named wolf can take some shit.

I don't care what comes out of Roth's mouth, but I will give him props at least, dancing like that at his age. Though I'm pretty sure I will not put my dancing on youtube when I am that age, no matter how well I can move.

As a Christian, I have to say that I would never yell at or speak to someone the way that guy did in the video.

However, I also think if we want the madness to end we have to be willing to look these people in the eyes and tell them in no uncertain terms that they're crazy. And their supporters as well.

I don't think youtube cares about an old rocker like him anyway. They might not even realize he has a page up there.

not until their AI flags something on it, anyway. probably something from back before he started making videos in the style of the last year's White House Christmas fiasco

No idea, he probably did like a lot of other boomers. But you'd have to look it up and see if he said something publicly.

Ha he was 2nd on my list. Hes been so out of the news for so long...and from where he was, basically top of the world in 1984...it feels odd.

So I thought him possible as the answer here becase most other greats have crossed our news cycle over the years. Either from some lilttle mention or story about them living a quiet life in their mansions or still connected to the music world in some way. Or health/life news.

David Lee Roth has fallen completely off the map.

Yeah, his last run with Van Halen was sort of the end I think. He's 72 though, so really how much more of a career is he going to have at this point? He's not in a band like the Stones, and with Eddie dead Van Halen is over. Highly unlikely that there will be another version of that band since Eddie was the core.

Brother. using facile labels like 'Woke Commie' plays worse on the thinking side of the political and social divide than it does over there where the Thought-free Pseudo-left lurks, just advising more care.

FYI, there hasn't been a left worthy of the charge in America since the late 80s, and there hasn't been a real communist presence here since the 1930s. They were the reason our corporate owners invented fascism, bro. Also and moreover, one cannot really despise communists as they deserve to be despised until you've read their literature and listened to their cant, neither of which have any room for identity politics or ESG.

Please see my post here:

https://morgthorak.substack.com/p/what-is-a-woke-communist

I am not going to debate you about this, I said everything I have to say about it in that post.

And yes, I am aware that the GAE is a fascist oligarchy, masquerading as a republic, pretending to be a democracy. But that does not mean that woke communism does not exist as a tool for the oligarchs, they use it very effectively to keep the lower classes divided and fighting amongst themselves.

The old communists and their definitions are irrelevant now.

David Lee will always be the "true" singer of Van Halen, imo. Great to see he's still active, even if he's 40 years past his prime haha!
