David Lee Roth Debuts Van Halen’s “Runnin’ with the Devil” on KROQ w/ Rodney Bingenheimer in 1976 – LISTEN – This Day in Rock History

Roth Army: David Lee Roth appears on Pasadena radio station KROQ with Rodney Bingenheimer to debut “Runnin’ With The Devil” #OTD in 1976.

David Lee Roth:

We were playing one night and some of the fellas from KISS came down to see the band, who you brought along. A couple of days later we were in New York City doing a tape recording down at Electric Ladyland Studios. What we have here is one helluva demo tape and this is something that we’re showing people around and people are being exposed to it. This is the first radio play that we’ve ever gotten. It’s just a tape here, but we’re proud to be on ‘The ROQ of Los Angeles.’ This is called “Runnin’ with the Devil.”

Greg Renoff:

DLR masterclass on spin & optimism. REMEMBER: VH had just been rejected in NY by Aucoin, KISS’s mgr. Gene Simmons had failed to get VH a record deal. DLR, back in LA, gets Gene produced VH demo played on KROQ, trumpeting fact they’d been in studio w/a superstar, GENE. BRILLIANT.

Van Halen: Newly Surfaced Super-8 Silent Footage from 1978 – VIDEO – Niagara Falls Convention Center

Greg Renoff:

Do you like Van Halen?

Yes?

Then watch this now.

Van Halen – NEWLY SURFACED Super-8 🎥 – September 8, 1978 at Niagara Falls Convention Center.

Silent footage, but it’s unmistakable: here they are performing “I’m the One.”

I love Black Sabbath, but Van Halen in 1978 was a very tough act to follow. Unbelievable energy.

David Lee Roth at Iowa vs Iowa St. Football Game in 1986 – VIDEO

Super 70s Sports:

If you thought Iowa was losing at home with David Lee Roth in the goddamn house, you were sadly fucking mistaken.

On that day (Sept. 13, 1986), Roth — by then riding the wave of a burgeoning solo career after exiting Van Halen in 1985 — strode onto the Kinnick Stadium turf at halftime and performed a jubilant version of his hit, ‘Yankee Rose,’ with the Iowa State marching band. ‘Diamond Dave’ was holding court that weekend around Iowa, playing shows at both Hilton Coliseum in Ames and Five Seasons Center in Cedar Rapids.
