David Lee Roth has been in the spotlight recently, marking the 40th anniversary of his debut album 'Eat 'Em and Smile' and reuniting onstage with Alex Van Halen at TEDxFargo—the first time the duo have performed together since 2015. Roth has also reflected on his career, including his self-diagnosis of genius and his 1985 EP that showcased his artistic independence, while new bassist Sean McNabb praised working with him. Meanwhile, Roth canceled his tour, prompting Sammy Hagar to invite him to a Las Vegas residency.
