Whats the line? " I get more a$$ than a toilet seat"

Paula Froelich of the New York Post's "Page Six" reports: David Lee Roth had such an unquenchable thirst for sex during his VAN HALEN days that he invented an ingenious way to score at the band's concerts — doling out generous cash rewards to staffers who supplied him with the hottest girls, according to a new, unauthorized bio of the platinum-selling band.
The spandex-clad rocker developed a "streamlined" system of "ordering sex at shows" by distributing laminated backstage passes to the security staff — each marked with [the staffer's] initials," writes Ian Christe in "Everybody Wants Some: The Van Halen Saga", out in August from Wiley.
"Then, from the stage, [Roth would call] out, 'Blonde, pink top, sector A-4,' pointing out the girls he wanted to see after the show. Whatever crew member's name Dave saw flapping around the girl's neck backstage at the end of the night would get a $100 bonus at breakfast the next morning. As far as intimacy went, it was a little like the invention of the drive-through window at McDonald's, but the morale of tour staff remained high."
Diamond Dave also kept a scrapbook of provocative Polaroids that showed many of the band's kinky groupies. "[It] featured sights like a backward-leaning naked girl being used as a coffee table, a lit cigarette in her [private parts]," Christe writes.
But time caught up with Roth, and after a number of breakups and reunions with VAN HALEN, whose smash hits in the 1970s and '80s included "Jump", "Panama" and "Hot for Teacher", he appeared "frustrated by the role of sex god," according to the book.
"He routinely vented some [bleep]ed-up male sexuality, inviting pretty soccer moms from the front row for a drink from his trademark Jack Daniel's bottle and then shaking the stage prop at groin level while [spraying] about a quart of whiskey on [their] heads," Christe's book relates.
"Who knows how many times he had enacted the same scene backstage with willing participants during his halcyon days, but now his soaking of loyal admirers revealed the impotent anger of an aging Adonis."
