Dont be that person. Wolfie went to an elite private school that taught him music theory. Ed said so himself in an interview the Wolfie hit a teacher for saying music has rules he needed to follow. Ed knew music too. He was a classically trained pianist. Ed just figured out how to twist music rules to fit his style.

​@@sweezyjackson4935 Eddie was in fact NOT classically trained. While in is true that he took lessons, he could not actually read music. He tells this story in his Smithsonian interview available here on KZfaq where he says that his piano teacher asked him to turn the page for him as he played a piece of music. Eddie just stood there not knowing what to do, and when his teacher stopped and wondered why he was not turning the page, that was when Eddie finally told his teacher that he could not read music, in spite of the fact that he had been his teacher for several years at that point. Further, he told his teacher that he was able to learn the pieces to play simply by watching his teachers fingers as he demonstrated. His teacher was amazed. The Smithsonian interview was great, I'm so glad that Eddie agreed to participate in it, as I don't think he was known for giving very many interviews. It was great to see because he was sober and in a great spot in life. Alex and Wolf were in the audience, he mentions them several times, and also mentions Wolfgang's then yet to be released solo album

@@maniacmark1987 if you think evh didnt understand music theory forward and backwards then you are delusional. He knew where every note was on the fret board and piano keyboard. He knew every chord and its structure. And Wolfgang knows it too. Seek help.
