OMG THAT GUITAR!!!😍😍😍😍😍

Hagar sucks ..best front man David Lee makes it like Benny Hill...

Roth was a perfect example of California Hollywood rockstar ego, he actually lived the part. I personally never gave a damned for California crap, but I think he made Van Halen, and they died when he left.....

Something I I didn’t notice until now is that throughout the whole video he has his volume and tone knobs on his guitar rolled back to about 9 o clock. I wonder why. Does anyone know if this Is this something he always did?

Eddie was everything a guitar hero is supposed to be. His creativity and passion took the ceiling for what people thought the instrument could do and rose it to a new level. He was the nicest guy ever, and he was always chasing for new tones. It’s very sad that we don’t have him around anymore. Rest in peace Eddie.

Are these interviews anywhere else without the backing music drowning everything out?

Eddie was the goat 🐐 influenced every guitar player after him. Dime and Vinny Paul were hugely influenced by Alex and Eddie they were the best in metal 🤘 RIP

When I heard eddie died, I was sad, obviously, but I felt really bad for Alex because they were so close.😢

coolest guys on the planet right there. RIP EVH

Perfect band 🇧🇷

: 0:23 :

He played his best music on this model

They were a bonded pair, musically and emotionally. Through thick and thin, ebbs and flows, highs and lows, they were a team. One could not survive without the other.

With what does he record the picking hand at 0:13-0:19

Everything I loathe about human beings exemplified in one interview.

I went to that show in Maine that lightening storm was intence crazy 5150 time!!

Hard for Ed to get a word in

I’ll buy any book Sammy or Mike writes. They’re true blue guys!!!!

Total shtick. Dave has done this at hundreds of shows.

Every Wanna Be Guitarists should start here!!!

Still breaks my heart that he passed away... My mom passed away the very same day Ed did. He passed in the morning and I was on my way to the hospital to visit my mom... she passed later that evening. RIP Ed.

Everyone could see how bad EVH was doing during those years, the only 2 that came to his defense were his trained parrot brother & his piece of crap manager Ray Daniels.

I miss EVH

Not true about being the first to do the tapping thing. Now the technique he used was all his own. The big however is there were many who tapped and made harmonics with both hands. Just watching his dad play...... One can see where he got some of his technique and ideas.....

Whatvisbthe accoustic guitar here ?

Im posting this comment when some new videos popped up on the past of Van Halen . It really wasn't till now we start seeing videos of Dave being "weird" . There's a video pic of Mike himself calling Dave weird . Now it seems Dave had/has ADD/ADHD . It seems Dave made a career with it . Also it seems Dave didn't like the 5150 studio because beforehand Dave had alotta fun making albums at Sunset Studios . Doing work at 5150 wasn't fun to him maybe . Also , this when the band members actually saw their success with a new contract and thei STILL second best selling album . Dave saw all this REAL money coming in and decided to bail .

❤Eugenia can be proud,RIP❤

This is a great interview.

Lol. Sammy threw it.

01:37 wow

Marriage and Rock and Roll are words that don't fit together!

Who's the interviewer?

Can"t Even Watch This Part Of Van Halen !!!!

Wow...just found this in 2024....had no idea this had happened....they were truly remarkable live....as in transporting you to a different place especially Eddie whose playing only got better with time.

Yeah I agree , Dave is probably like New York City. A short visit is exciting , stimulating and once in a life time type of fun . But living and working in New York day after day is more than likely a much different story.

0:43 is this the perfect PH? If it isn't, I don't know what it is

I wonder if this was a set up. The exact same thing happened at a VH concert at Barton Colosseum in Little Rock in 1984. Same response. I was there.

Sam’s work ethic Eddie ? You’re full of shit look at Sam’s work compared to the Vanhalen brothers since they broke up !!! Ed you’re a liar

Cant believe roth had to disguise himself in the band naming himself sammy hagar!

I guess Alex has always looked 65? 😂

The day I can’t remember is the one I’ll never forget! I loved the Monsters of Rock show in Indy in July of 88! I was 17 and haven’t seen anything like it since. 🤘😎

I was at the show in Indianapolis on 7/6/88 and loved every minute of it!

Alex "Allan Holdsworth doesnt know how to put a song together" First time I ever heard anybody roast AH. You could tell they were buds

Saw the tour in Tampa Fla...1988, Metallica Blew everybody away and then some....in the afternoon.... Sammy wanna be VH... No thanks... Dave Rules always brooo!!!🎤

Steve Hacket from the old Genesis started that tapping thing - look it up.

My roommate said the one van Halen concert he went to they were all drunk, and couldn't remember their songs, and he said he would never go to another van Halen concert.

Why do people throw objects at the stage anyway? 😮. I don't get it?

never seen this one-- god damn I love those early days of VAN HALEN!

Great music, killer show 1980 seems like a long time ago.

Two drunk baboons
