Some fading rockers turn to drink, some turn to drugs, and some turn into parodies of their former selves. David Lee Roth had been treading perilously close to that third option, but now has refocused his life to becomeÖand EMT? Thatís right, the former Van Halen frontman has relocated from his Pasadena mansion to an apartment the Lower East Side of NYC to earn his certification as an emergency medical technician. Heís done some of it before, he told the New York Daily News, ìI used to be a surgical orderly in South Central, L.A. I started that when I got out of junior college in the early ’70s, and that led to a variety of things in the outdoor medical fire force and training with the Green Berets.” Is this a new career direction or just a space filler until the next musical interlude? Sooner or later, the truth will come out.
