GobbleDog 816 Posted June 18, 2015 Weezer would be cool. Alternative rock band that could reach a wide demographic I'd think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted June 18, 2015 I am not advocating them necessarily, but has Pearl Jam never done it? They seem respected enough, and they have the hits needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Honcho 4,014 Posted June 18, 2015 As much as I hated Van Hagar, there's your answer. Disagree, Van Halen was the biggest rock band, biggest concert band in the world pre Hagar. 1984 was only stopped from reaching #1 by the biggest selling album of all time, saying they exploded with Hagar just isn't correct. They were pretty much top dogs before Hagar and just maintained with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were pretty much top dogs before Hagar and just maintained with him. I did not say they exploded. I said they turned from a hard core rock and roll band into nickleback. They got way more radio play with Hagar. All their songs were puzzy ballads for christ sakes. Compared to what they were with DLR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magnificent Bastard 190 Posted June 18, 2015 I did not say they exploded. I said they turned from a hard core rock and roll band into nickleback. They got way more radio play with Hagar. All their songs were puzzy ballads for christ sakes. Compared to what they were with DLR Dance the night away, jump, dancing in the streets. Puzzy, Puzzy, Puzzy. They were headed that way anyhow. It's just that DLR couldn't sing a ballad, and ballads were where the money was in the later 80's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Honcho 4,014 Posted June 18, 2015 Please look at what he responded to when he said he was responding to: name another band that had relatively good success and then exploded after changing their lead singer he said Van Hagar and I disagreed with him. If you disagreed later, great, but I was adding my reasons why it was not correct. Again, are you drinking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was one of the best showman ever, as far as a lead singer. Being gay helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mookz 1,287 Posted June 18, 2015 Coming around on the frisbee dog idea. Imagine a dog streaking down the field, then jumping at the last second and catching a perfectly thrown disc right between its teeth. Then it walks over and hands the frisbee to a special olympian being cradled by a disabled vet. You could also have one of those dogs that catches the rapid-fire frisbees tossed from a close distance. All set to the soundtrack from Fiddler. Plus, everyone in attendance gets a coupon for $10 off a dog washing class, which would be a class that gives tips and techniques for washing a dog. The possibilities are endless, and it would really help raise awareness of frisbees, not to mention the dogs that chase them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
