David Lee Roth Pitched His Movie At “South Park” (Feat. Bill Hader) | Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend

I've heard anyway, I don't know if it's. true, that you uh Melany and Armison had. a text exchange going for a while. We still do. Were you the Van Halen brothers? Oh, well, no, that was that was during. the pandemic, but it wasn't that. So, we've had basically since the the March. 2020 until now, we have a text chain. that and we I mean, we basically. communicate every day on it. I mean, our. girlfriends and wives, you know, are you texting with John and,

you know, and Kimmel sometimes and other. people, but. but yeah. No, it's very funny. But at. one point, I find the Van Halen brothers. uh funny. I I've always found them very. funny. cuz they're. they're so talented and such great. musicians, but they're very touchy and. they would air out their grievances to. anybody. Yeah. And I always find that funny. And there. was an interview with them when when. David Lee always mad at David Lee Roth. They're always mad at David Lee Roth and.

it was when they reunited at the MTV. movie or music awards. and it was just funny how I was like and. then you know so Dave just goes up there. and you know was like Eddie Van Halen's. like you know Dave just goes up there. he's popping and booping doing his Dave. thing. He's very disrespectful to Beck. And then you hear Alex Van going, "Yeah, very disrespectful.". Very disrespectful to Beck. And uh I. sent it to Melany and Fred. And Melanie. said, "Could you imagine getting. rearended by these guys?".

And then I just started us getting. rearended, the conversation, and then. them holding a press conference. And I. remember Fred had the joke. He just put. in parentheses, "No one is asking. anything." No. No reporters asking a. question. And then it was Eddie Van. Halen going, "All right, one at a time. One at a time. One at a time.". Are they still mad at uh at David Lee. Roth even though he wasn't involved in. the accident? Yeah, that was probably.

Probably. I just find out Yeah, David. Lee Roth is hilarious, too. Like there's. there's a story someone told me um my. friend Paul who's in the band the OC's. told me a story. I don't know if it's. true or not, but apparently Henry. Rollins was going into like a morning. zoo crew interview and David Ross was. coming out, you know. So, it's like 6:00. in the morning and David Lee Ross got. this long beautiful coat on and H Andrew. Rollins is like, "Hey, yeah, I just want. to say I'm big fan and everything and. and uh David Lee Ross goes, "Oh man, you. want a drink?" And he opened up the the.

and he just it was lined with beer. The thing was just all these beers. That sounds true. And and. Henry Rollins is like the most. straightedge guy around. He goes, "No, man. I no I don't want to drink." And. and Daily Roth went, "What's the matter, man? You got school tomorrow.". I hope that's true. I hope that's true. It has to be true. It has to be true. School tomorrow.

I was like, I love this guy. I love it. when people I always. literally not progressed since when I. was in high school. I love it when people are. I love it when people are who you want. them to be. at all times. That always made me really happy when I. would meet celebrities or famous people. and they were exactly. exactly who I wanted them to be. When I. worked at South Park, he pitched a movie. to us where it was it was like a where. he was an assassin and he was like about.

a guy trying to get his dog back and we. were like, "Oh." We had to say, "Oh, they made this movie John Wick. That's. kind of. nah, but the guy has a dog.". I go, "Yeah, I know he has a dog.". Famously. Famously. What do you mean he's got a dog? And then he thinks no one's seen. Parker. And Trey Parker pitched. He. goes, "Well, what if you you're you and. it's like you're having to go on these. missions, but you got to like have the. band, you know, the band's also going, "Hey, Dave, we need you on tour." And. stuff like that. He goes, "No, I don't.

want these those guys involved with. this.". Then he came by. I remember he walked. around South Park and you know people. they they draw on their desk and they. can like move around and so they draw. like this. So, it's like the the the. drawing desk is like caned, you know, and there was a guy drawing and he just. walked around and he went up to this guy. who was drawing like that. He goes and. he goes and he just sees him with this. desk. He goes, "Hey, what's wrong with. you? Long night,

everything's in a party context.". Yeah. And he goes, "You long night?" And. he went and the guy went, "Whoa, Diamond. Dave." I'm not kidding. Don't you think that's his life? people. coming out of man then hey it is me. Diamond D. We are at the South Pasadena Fourth of. July parade and he was just unaffiliated. with the parade riding around on a. bicycle throughout the like parade. grads. Yeah, he was not invited to the parade.

Nothing to do at the parade. That's my favorite. I want to be. and he was nice. I just want to make it. clear like we loved him at at South. Park. It wasn't like a thing where we. were like oh why is this guy here? We. were like and like we were saying we. were like totally in awe. We were like, "Oh my god, that's David Lee. Roth.". And he did not disappoint at all. And he. was so sweet and nice. But. yeah, it was awesome.
