On Wednesday, January 24, DLR took to his YouTube channel to air grievances against Wolfgang -- bassist and son of late Van Halen founder Eddie Van Halen -- calling him a “f***in’ kid,” and a “schlemiel” (Yiddish for “fool”). In an interesting turn, Roth also laid into 32-year-old Wolfie over nepotism issues, imitating a young Wolfie saying “Bro, I just want people to know… I got this job because of my talent. I woulda had this job anyway even if my dad wasn’t God.”.

DLR says of his experiences on the road with Wolfgang, "This f***in' kid, he's complaining the entire tour like I'm not paying enough attention to him on stage," saying he took his revenge by removing a woman he believed was affiliated with Roth by tossing her out of two concerts, only to find out later that she was the accountant in charge of payroll who couldn't secure tickets in time. Listen to the full rant above.

Before this latest video, David Lee Roth had gone after his nemesis Sammy Hagar once again, bringing the 'Red Rocker's experiences with aliens and probes into the conversation, as only Roth can.
