Description
What does a rock star do after leaving the band? If you’re David Lee Roth, you have a Las Vegas residency, write a memoir, become a radio host, start a YouTube series, star in a Japanese-language short film, launch a tattoo skincare line, and release a digital comic. And then you rejoin the band.
The first book focused on Roth in twenty-five years, DLR Book is an intimate look at an epic career. From his start with Van Halen to his highly publicized departure from the band and his triumphant return, entertainment industry expert Darren Paltrowitz covers the highs and lows of Roth’s journey. The fruit of nearly one hundred exclusive interviews, the book also delves into Diamond Dave’s many extracurricular activities, including his unclassifiable video series The Roth Show, the rise and fall of his syndicated radio program, and his training as an EMT. Included here are conversations with some of Roth’s most popular collaborators (among them Steve Vai, Billy Sheehan, Travis Tritt) and contributions from members of rock’s all-time biggest bands, such as Korn’s Ray Luzier, Bon Jovi’s Phil X, and Heart’s Ann Wilson.
Filled with countless photographs never published in book form, DLR Book is a front-row seat to one of the wildest and most unpredictable shows in rock history.
