As
does Rich of Buffalo, Bay Area Bill, Lakeside Myron, me and others of
you, rock star David Lee Roth (1954 -) of Van Halen, takes comfort in wearing
union suits to sleep in. He holds court in a 1984
Friday Night Videos interview while relaxing in bed in his union
suit.
All
right, his long underwear looks orange but take it from me, they
were red back in the day!
Roth
was such a big Union Suit Fan that, in recognition of his 1991 Tour,
“A Little Ain't Enough,” Roth and a couple members of his staff
designed and presented bright red union suits to his
Road Crew and Management Staff as well as to radio stations to
promote and commemorate his tour. Roth enjoyed union suits so much he thought others
would too. The long, warm underwear kept the group comfortable
as they traveled and performed that year.
The front of the Roth's long underwear has no design and is like any other union suit, plain with buttons from collar to crotch.
It's the back of this union suit that sets it apart from all others.

Hey Chris, Glad to see that David Lee Roth made it to Union Suit Fans In The Limelight. (I think he's been out of the Limelight for awhile now)But hopefully he's still enjoying his button-down-underwear as much as the rest of us are. And you never know he might just comment on this page himself one of these chilly mornings. Rich from Buffalo, New York where it's another cold day.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Rich! Hope 2019 is a great one for you. Thanks for the Roth suggestion. Interesting to see rock stars wearing Union Suits too! This blog and Union Suit Fan would not be the same without contributors like you!
