At the height of the grunge era, David Lee Roth released a new-sound record boasting more mature and introspective lyrics. Would America embrace the older and wiser Diamond Dave?

In honor of my tenth anniversary at the ABA Journal, I’ve compiled a list of my law and pop culture features:
Saw a funny thread depicting some Todd In The Shadows’ Trainwreckords as “Simpsons” memes. So I tried it with some of my Career Killers.
We’ve seen several careers come to an end on (or above) the stage of the MTV Video Music Awards.
The Cars tried to go back-to-basics with Door to Door. Instead, they broke up for decades.
Limp Bizkit were everywhere in the late 90s/early 00s. Then they fell off the face of the earth.
Penty of cult artists have gone mainstream. Not Liz Phair…
It’s been said that great art comes out of great suffering or adversity. That wasn’t the case for Metallica’s St. Anger.
My latest feature. In a lot of ways, this is the story I was born to write.
I still can’t believe Pantera’s Far Beyond Driven debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200.
Lou Reed was a genius. But not because he was a great musician.
Michelle Branch has always had a strong following. Too bad contract law has always been stronger.
Katy Perry was one of the most reliable hit machines in music– until Witness happened.
Who would have thought a concept album inspired by the Falkland Islands War would end the most successful incarnation of Pink Floyd?
At least it was better than Lulu.
