I fell in love with Van Halen clear back in 1978 when I was 14. I remember it like it was yesterday, yet it's hard to believe it's been that long ago- I'm now 58. Wow, where has the time gone? I will NEVER tire of VH- I've been through the Dave era and the Van Hagar era as they happened ( love them both) and they still remain one of my favorite bands to this day!! My generation is for sure the rock n'roll generation- we had the best of times , for sure and it never gets old! Even the younger generations love our music! Eddie is my favorite guitarist, his musical talent was truly BEYOND amazing and he could play that guitar like he was making love to it. The music flowed through him like sweet magic, he and his guitar became one. I cried watching this...hard to believe he is gone from this Earth. What a sad, sad day that was for sure but he will always be remembered and cherished forever!

so was Eddie. he never quit playing drums; he just said Al was BETTER. drums were the first instrument he taught Wolfgang. Even crazier, Al said he left all the songwriting to Ed, half implying that Edward at least sketched out the drum parts and Al would just flesh them out. Ed plays electronic drums on the bonus track "Crossing Over" with Al overdubbed on an acoustic kit. Ed played bass on all of the albums produced at 5150, then taught Mikey the grooves for their live shows. Consider that the band put out 10 consecutive platinum albums, a feat unmatched by anyone else, and Eddie was THE songwriter! No wonder Al said without Ed there is no Van Halen!
