Arguably, Milwaukee's most racially and socially diverse neighborhood. Home to many of the city's artists, musicians and poets as well as an equally eclectic nightlife where you can hear reggae, indie rock and underground hip hop on the same block on the same night.
Riverwest is also know for shattering outsiders' stereotypes and perceptions of Milwaukee and Wisconsin.
"Damn, I never would've thought a place like Riverwest would be in a state likeWisconsin."
Lead singer of the rock and roll band Extreme during the 80s, who eventually broke up. Cherone went on to replace Sammy Hagar as Van Halen's lead singer. In three years they only produced one alubm "Van Halen III". Despite much criticism, musically it was actually a pretty decent mix of a different style of Van Halen. Hagar then resumed kicking ass as Van Halen's lead singer after the public's poor opinion forced Cherone to make an early exit.
The Van Halen album "Van Halen III" featured Gary Cherone as the lead singer.
