I’m really glad he had a chance to be this version of himself again before he passed. To show everyone what he was capable of that hadn’t seen it before. True musical genius.
Van Halen did something else a lot of bands can't do,when Dave split and Sammy came on board they changed the sound to fit Sammy instead of trying to be van Halen without Dave they became van Halen with sammy
It's a disease.. a deep throat cancer.. deep.. nobody knows.. everybody could have it.. it happens, and he try and try, keep strong years by years.. As like as covid19.. everyone could got it.. God bless.. very nice, very good art.. bye Eddie, we love You.. let it be.. 😭
I spent that much on my latest Acustic Guitar, if you throw in the $125.00 Case & other: Guitar Strap,2 sets.of Strings & Tuner! But, if you were talking about Eddie, he was like the best ( they said) when I first heard him!!!
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!
To me, he was saying goodbye to the fans. He didn't know when, but he of course knew his health conditions were complicated. I'm missing Eddie everyday more and more.
It's appointed to man once to die then the judgment. We'll all die one day but the question is will we be ready for eternity? A born again experience with Christ is the only way
This man had so much talent and skill. Honestly who could make harmonics scream like that? He had so many techniques he perfected and he enjoyed sharing it. RIP.
Beautiful solo, he made the guitar sound like a violin, there is no one like him, he was a musical genius, never took lessons, learned by ear, amazing.
"Eddie can play!" Remember that quote from the early 1980s? Eddie earned his place along side Django, Chet, Les, Chuck, Wes and Jimi on Electric Guitar's "Mt. Rushmore." Well done, Eddie! RIP.
Can you imagine, Evh, R.R, and SRV , all sitting around together and having an epic jam. The sounds their making , almost makes you want to go and hear it. But not yet. Not yet. And Jimi, BB king, etc... man
I have seen Van Halen 13 times in concert since 1988. This show here was the final one and one of my favorites. Thanks for the memories fellas... RIP Eddie
Everyone was so in awe of his tapping technique - and rightly so - that sometimes we overlooked what an incredibly clean picking technique he had. Amazing. There will never be another one like him.
Cmon how does that still be fresh all these years later...1st concert Raleigh NC 1979.. 2 more times 1980 and 1983... Many videos and listens on LPs... Still blows my mind he invented and mastered the styling...an event in music only EVH was sent to do...
I saw Van Halen the same year. I too was glad to see Eddie clean and sober after his troubles just a few years prior. Fans are greedy, we always want more. But I’m glad he seemed to get everything together in his last years. At least that’s how I prefer to remember him.
Amazing. Nearly nothing Ed's using is from his early days and yet it sounds...just like Ed! Gotta love this guy. He'll kick your ass with the coolest playing without breaking a sweat, and with a smile. Totally changed the game for guitarists forever.
RIP Eddie. Thank you for making my life as a teenager growing up in the 1980's so memorable and enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your talent, music and life with the world. God Bless you, Sir. You will be missed.
In the early 80’s I discovered Van Halen and bought every album up until 88 or 89 when I joined the service. When I got out and went home all my albums had been stolen. One of these days I’m gonna buy em all again. Including Hagar era albums. Purely for Eddies guitar genius. RIP EVH….
The coolest aspect of this is that Mr. Van Halen is so comfortable on stage, as he has been there for so long, that it is like he is playing in his living room.
EVH was The Absolute Truth.. He Is One of The Greatest Innovators of Guitar.. He's a Slayer for Sure Just Love Em... Miss You My Most Awesome Musical Big Brotha.. Rest In Power Edward "Eddie" Van Halen 💖💖
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!
watching this for the first time after he died was so emotional. this may be my favorite of eddie’s live solos. i can’t think of eddie van halen playing guitar without that smile on his face. thank you edward
When I heard that he died October 6th 2020 I cried what a loss he was such a great Master at making music I especially will miss him he created music that I'll never be able to create he's played over 50 years if I played 100 years I could still don't get as good as any Van Halen he was number one No Doubt
Life doesn’t seem fair sometimes. Like how Eddie could have been taken away from us way too soon. But then I think how lucky I am in life to have had Eddie hit the scene and play with such passion and fire and lit a fire under so many of us guitar players. Thank you for the music Eddie. Rest In Peace. You are SO missed!
That new guitar 🎸 looks good! Mozart for the Guitar 🎸! Our Mozart! He will be missed! There’s no one coming around to improve on this legacy! This is it! There’s nobody better! RIP Eddie Van Halen
You got that right music isnt what it once was. Everything now is garbage. All the greats are dying off faster and faster. Two of my favorites Neil Peart and Eddie Van Halen. So sad. We are living in a weird time where the changes are so uncertain and uncharted.
Rolling Stone magazine what do they know anyway Eddie is the greatest guitarist that ever lived there will never be no equal nobody will come close I've been listening to Van Halen for over 40 years my favorite group of all time I listen to Van Halen every freaking day all day at work while I'm driving it's 10:00 now at night and I'm still listening to them Eddie had something that no other guitarist has that's what made him great that's what made him stand out rest in peace Eddie I still can't believe that you're gone I was really devastated when I heard it over the radio Q104.3 in New York I think it was like 12:00 or 1:00 in the afternoon something like that I actually cried No Lie I was down the whole day for a couple of days it's like a bad dream rest in peace Eddie love you brother❤❤
My first concert...VanHalen @ the old Civic Arena here in "Da' Burgh".Was 1982. Saw Him do this (almost) Exactly 30 years ago! Thank God,and God Bless Him...still rockin!!! My man
Van Halen and MTV practically raised me . As a budding musician they also were so intrinsic to my progress and deeply defined my childhood/preteen through teen years as a person. VH's 1984 album blew me away when it came out, and helped me through some very difficult years as a great distraction and kind of a soundtrack of my life during that time. Thank you so much Eddie for your HUGE impact upon guitar playing and to VH, music as a whole! You guys are phenomenal!
My birthday is on March 30th I'm 61 grew up with a Eddie Van Halen listening to him definitely one of a kind ROCKon Eddie Eddie Van my name is Eddie to and I play guitar rest in peace May the gates of Heaven open up 4 you 🎸
I saw Edward in Rotterdam the whole Ahoy arena did go crazy on OUR EDWARD VAN HALEN'S solo EDDIE EDDIE Ahoy did just not shut up !!! we where so proud tears in my eyes,you just realy feel the love for EDWARD AND ALEX VAN HALEN I miss that band as if. I lost a member of my Family it just hurts my haerth sences I had to feel it this bad to believe it how muts I love that band,and special Edward!!! And i have lost mu own brohtet in a motto exident ,so i feel for Alex with his pain of losing his Brother,my prayers for him and Wolfgang Van Halen amen.
Smile because he knows much more knowledge of technical melody, rhythm, harmonic, etc.. his mother is from Sunda, Rangkas Bitung, Indonesia... the lands that so much more active mountains..
Same vibe always positive every time I listened to all of their songs a cool feeling of peace and freedom and joy came to my ears a very cool band all of the van Halen members are geniuses that's van Halen
it's still amazing after all these years. When Eddie was playing Frankenstein, it was astounding. Now with the custom rig, it must be so easy for him after playing this solo set for 30+ years. Either way, having seen and heard him live several times, I applaud you EVH, for you are the Mozart and Beethoven of the guitar of this generation, as well as a cancer survivor and God knows how many parties. Love ya man!!
Eddie, the man, father, husband, friend, humanitarian, guitar God, Rock Hero, all around man's man will be forever missed and remembered! RIP EVH We all love and miss you!!!
This is a thing of true beauty. The master at the peak of his powers once again. There will never be another Edward Van Halen. Rock on in peace. We will always love you you and your incredible passion and musicianship. 🙏 thank you 🙏 thank you 🙏 thank you! 🙏
Mind Blown...It`s beyond playing the guitar...It`s something else that only Eddie could encompass. Not really sure what it is... but it`s a force that goes somewhere beyond the norm
THE MASTER AT HIS FINEST……He’s Healthy Got a Little Weight On……1995 Was When I Got Clean &Sober Gosh I’m Missing Edward Van Halen and The Van Halen Band and Van Halen Sound!!!!! Rest In Peace Eddie Van Halen You Will Never Be Forgotten 🙏
WOW so Gosh Darn hard to believe this happened 8 years ago. I can remember when I first heard Running With The Devil followed by Eruption killing the radio stations !! Seems like yesterday >> EDDIE WILL LIVE FOREVER !!
And to think, I could play all his songs and do most tricks. Heck Van Halen was probably one of my first Paid concerts other than Rush, Zeppelin ,and Floyd. Sure miss this guy. All you guys. Hell I still have 6 guitars a bass and a piano. This’ll never get old. Bless you #Wolfgang Thanks
EVH playing an EVH Wolfgang played with EVH Floyd Rose, EVH Tuners, EVH Neck, EVH pots, EVH pickups, EVH strings, weilded to EVH by an EVH strap, all connected to an EVH phase 90, which is connected to an EVH, Flange, which is connected to an EVH wah, which is then connected to 10 (visible) EVH 5150 iii Heads which is then outputted by 10 (visible) EVH cabs and this is all connected by EVH cables... oh yeah, he's holding an EVH pick... Things are getting serious...
well his only using one 5150 head witch is off stage, and he has a 2-6 back up heads depending on where he plays and 3 cabs witch are the ones mic up the wet/dry/wet set up an those the ones that are mic on stage and then he uses delays a rack system and his pedals (gets very complicated on how its run the sound), the stuff he has on stage (cabs and amps heads) don't work there just there for looks but, so the 3 cabs that are there (on stage )that have mics on them run the sound then Thur the pa system and not the other 8 cabs you see just the 3 that have mics.
Absolutely awesome video .He was the greatest guitar player and there will never be anyone like him. He always gave us his heart and soul. Truly missed.
That solo brought tears to my eyes! This is without a doubt the best vid on YT of their concert. I humbly thank you for this! This is AMAZING! What a god he is! I
Eddie, once again a truly amazing 9 minutes of pure magic.....and Then Dave walks on stage...What was the line in Batman " And whats with the stupid grin " hate me, but he just is so awkward on stage those last few tours. RIP Edward.
I was fortunate to be at this show … and about 8 other VH shows in my life. They never failed to impress me, and take me to a happy place. Thanks for all the great memories and vibes! Rest easy King Edward 🎸
First of all I gotta say that Wolfgang's face is a spitting image of Valerie Bertinelli (mother). Also that Eddie was the greatest and most difficult guitarist 2 cover in all his talents and skills. 2 do so requires months and possibly years of practice, patience, perseverance and dedication. He's not an easy showman 2 follow. I am 67 yrs old and have been trying since I was n my early 20s to master Eruption along with a great deal of other difficult Eddie talents. There is one in particular that I know how 2 play, but because of the crazy stretchy licks that are required, I quite often get an awful pain on the inner part of my left wrist. I believe it's somewhat similar 2 what maybe mistaken 4 Carpel Tunnel. In my case it's just due 2 the immense stress on my fingers 2 play that particular one. Oh well, RIP 2 the late great Eddie Van Halen. I will continue 2 play my red/black/white striped series guitar until I join him😇🙏🏼🎸🎶🎵
#1 IN my book as well! To just meet, shake hands and touch his fingers gave me Chills for you know,he is the Master/Icon that everything he has accomplished,R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen you are surely missed!!!***

He was such a part of my childhood. Rest in peace Edward.
Mine too
Me too!!
Although I was already 20 something when they came to fame, these guys are a good part of my youthful years.
I saw him this tour. Spent a handsome $400 for my 3rd row seat. NO REGRETS! Life is short. Live it. RIP, Maestro.
I'd call that a bargain....the best I ever had! There's a song there somewhere...
It's a disease.. a deep throat cancer.. deep.. nobody knows.. everybody could have it.. it happens, and he try and try, keep strong years by years..
As like as covid19.. everyone could got it..
God bless.. very nice, very good art.. bye Eddie, we love You.. let it be.. 😭
Only 400 bones? If you can afford to spend that much money, well done - you got a deal.
I'd pay twice that much!!! No problem!!
I spent that much on my latest Acustic Guitar, if you throw in the $125.00 Case & other: Guitar Strap,2 sets.of Strings & Tuner! But, if you were talking about Eddie, he was like the best ( they said) when I first heard him!!!
Eddie is one of the most exiting guitar players there has ever been
EXCITING too!
Yeah he's exited for good now.

RIP Eddie!
OUR "GOAT" FOREVER! I got to see them play in SAN DIEGO,CA in 2004 and the first song that was played was POUDCAKE. It was a great show!!!
He gave us his all to the end. This solo is utter mind blown !!!!
THE KING
Agreed!
The most energy I've ever seen from a. Sober E.V.H the greatest R.I.P !
To me, he was saying goodbye to the fans. He didn't know when, but he of course knew his health conditions were complicated. I'm missing Eddie everyday more and more.

This shows that he is the Best.
Feeling like no other , Technique like no other.

It's appointed to man once to die then the judgment. We'll all die one day but the question is will we be ready for eternity? A born again experience with Christ is the only way
it is hard to accept that Eddie is no longer with us. The smoking caught up with him. such a great talent!
This man had so much talent and skill. Honestly who could make harmonics scream like that? He had so many techniques he perfected and he enjoyed sharing it. RIP.
That face, that smile. What a gigantic spark of a human.
Beautiful solo, he made the guitar sound like a violin, there is no one like him, he was a musical genius, never took lessons, learned by ear, amazing.
Yeah that’s not quite true
At over 60 years old he was still playing better than anyone in history
"Eddie can play!" Remember that quote from the early 1980s?
Eddie earned his place along side Django, Chet, Les, Chuck, Wes and Jimi on Electric Guitar's "Mt. Rushmore."
Well done, Eddie!
RIP.
Yes the Mt. Rushmore of guitar players !! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Sad to say it but my two favorite guitar Gods are in heaven jamming together ! Eddie and Randy will never be forgotten !
Can you imagine, Evh, R.R, and SRV , all sitting around together and having an epic jam. The sounds their making , almost makes you want to go and hear it. But not yet. Not yet.
And Jimi, BB king, etc... man
And don't forget Mick Ronson - another gentle genius!!
@@pat3834 For sure !👍🏻
And what's about Prince?
@@karimel-sayed5960 Yes he was good but there are way too many great guitarists. Stevie Ray Vaughn was better !
I have seen Van Halen 13 times in concert since 1988. This show here was the final one and one of my favorites. Thanks for the memories fellas... RIP Eddie
And THAT, my friends is why he will never be forgotten!🤘🤘
10,000 lifetimes will pass and we will never see a star as bright...God bless you EVH...
I believe Eddie V. H; is about closes to a White Jimi Hendrix as there ever will be, next to Randy Hansen...
Minute 5 tears ya up....
God bless EVH
LOVE this.
Forever in our hearts
Same
Everyone was so in awe of his tapping technique - and rightly so - that sometimes we overlooked what an incredibly clean picking technique he had. Amazing. There will never be another one like him.
His father showed him how to do it.
Cmon how does that still be fresh all these years later...1st concert Raleigh NC 1979..
2 more times 1980 and 1983...
Many videos and listens on LPs...
Still blows my mind he invented and mastered the styling...an event in music only EVH was sent to do...

very lucky you.
Awesome.
Totally awesome. 🤘🏼
INSANE chops, swagger, and swing. Easily the best EVER...

It still blows my mind how long he was able to play as good as he did for
My favorite one man soloist
Thank You So Much Eddie Van Halen...
And to think, I could play all his songs and do most tricks. Heck Van Halen was probably one of my first Paid concerts other than Rush, Zeppelin ,and Floyd. Sure miss this guy. All you guys. Hell I still have 6 guitars a bass and a piano. This’ll never get old. Bless you #Wolfgang Thanks
EVH playing an EVH Wolfgang played with EVH Floyd Rose, EVH Tuners, EVH Neck, EVH pots, EVH pickups, EVH strings, weilded to EVH by an EVH strap, all connected to an EVH phase 90, which is connected to an EVH, Flange, which is connected to an EVH wah, which is then connected to 10 (visible) EVH 5150 iii Heads which is then outputted by 10 (visible) EVH cabs and this is all connected by EVH cables... oh yeah, he's holding an EVH pick...
Things are getting serious...
So do the masses all go out and buy EVH items exclusively beings how they're the "best"
Nothing beats his classic 5150 into the plexi though
Nothin like barne's solo on " Hello friends'...LOL....Funny on Guitar world missed that solo for the worlds top 100...LOL
well his only using one 5150 head witch is off stage, and he has a 2-6 back up heads depending on where he plays and 3 cabs witch are the ones mic up the wet/dry/wet set up an those the ones that are mic on stage and then he uses delays a rack system and his pedals (gets very complicated on how its run the sound), the stuff he has on stage (cabs and amps heads) don't work there just there for looks but, so the 3 cabs that are there (on stage )that have mics on them run the sound then Thur the pa system and not the other 8 cabs you see just the 3 that have mics.
saw a video by a female player named Oranthi doing Voodoo Child she had a EVH amp
Absolutely awesome video .He was the greatest guitar player and there will never be anyone like him. He always gave us his heart and soul. Truly missed.
Genius at his best no words 🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🎼🎸🤟
That solo brought tears to my eyes! This is without a doubt the best vid on YT of their concert.
I humbly thank you for this! This is AMAZING! What a god he is!

Saw them a few months ago. Flawless. Ed looks so good now that he's cleaned up. Very cool.
Eddie, once again a truly amazing 9 minutes of pure magic.....and Then Dave walks on stage...What was the line in Batman " And whats with the stupid grin " hate me, but he just is so awkward on stage those last few tours. RIP Edward.
A true master at work.. RIP
I was fortunate to be at this show … and about 8 other VH shows in my life. They never failed to impress me, and take me to a happy place. Thanks for all the great memories and vibes!
Rest easy King Edward 🎸
Eddie the fretboard MASTER of ALL TIME!!!👍👍👍
First of all I gotta say that Wolfgang's face is a spitting image of Valerie Bertinelli (mother). Also that Eddie was the greatest and most difficult guitarist 2 cover in all his talents and skills. 2 do so requires months and possibly years of practice, patience, perseverance and dedication. He's not an easy showman 2 follow. I am 67 yrs old and have been trying since I was n my early 20s to master Eruption along with a great deal of other difficult Eddie talents. There is one in particular that I know how 2 play, but because of the crazy stretchy licks that are required, I quite often get an awful pain on the inner part of my left wrist. I believe it's somewhat similar 2 what maybe mistaken 4 Carpel Tunnel. In my case it's just due 2 the immense stress on my fingers 2 play that particular one. Oh well, RIP 2 the late great Eddie Van Halen. I will continue 2 play my red/black/white striped series guitar until I join him😇🙏🏼🎸🎶🎵
If Eddie lives to be 100 he will be playing better than most all of us in our primes :)
#1 IN my book as well! To just meet, shake hands and touch his fingers gave me Chills for you know,he is the Master/Icon that everything he has accomplished,R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen you are surely missed!!!***
The best shot of Eddie's 2012 live solo on RUclips! Great job man :)
He was a great pioneer and Inventor of his guitars and man what a creator of music
Guitar is an extension of the music in your soul, and boy he had soul,RIP 👊
The drum sound at the beginning. Eargasm dudeeeee.
