Book Reviews of Everybody Wants Some: The Van Halen Saga
Book Review: I want some too!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is quite a interesting read. It doesn't go into deep detail on any one member of the band, and there isn't any really "unknown" facts revealed. However, the story is told in a way that gives new perspective on the whole David Lee Roth/Van Halen split. At first I blamed Roth, then Eddie, now I see it was just different personalities that likely never should have been together in the first place. That made it work for as long as then could and then went their separate ways. I now realize nothing could have stopped it.
Summary of Everybody Wants Some: The Van Halen Saga
The first definitive biography of the ultimate American rock bandHow did a pair of little Dutch boys trained in classical music grow up to become the nucleus of the most popular heavy metal band of all time? What's the secret behind Eddie Van Halen's incredible fast and furious guitar solos? What makes David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar so wacky? And, are all those stories about groupies, booze bashes, and contract riders true? The naked truth is laid bare in Everybody Wants Some--the real-life story of a rock 'n' roll fantasy come true.
