Edward and Wolfgang Van Halen - A magic moment between father and son 🤘

2015

[@So-cj4oj]

As a father, I know a proud dad when I see one. Rest in peace EVH.

[@So-cj4oj]

@TheMichaelJacksonFactChannel thanks troll 🧌… now ask your mom to warm you up some meatloaf and go back to your parents basement…

[@ricktheexplorer]

And that's Not Eddie's son. Valerie said she cheated the exact time she got preg preg, and Wolfie won't disclose a Paternity Test. His career would be over if word got out. Wolfie is in no way Asian, and Alex & Eddie are half Indonesian. Wolfie looks like a roadie, taller, fat, and a little like Valerie, that's it.

[@user-zi9ob2zr7j]

What a great moment!!! This reminded me of an interview with Eddie and he was asked when he knew that Wolfie was going to be a great musician. He answered that one day he heard some amazing drumming coming from the studio and thought it must have been Alex working on some new music. When he walked in he saw that it was actually an 8 year old Wolfgang behind the drums!

[@user-iq8pb4zv6o]

F***ing awesome man

[@Professional-fh1ow]

I have 3 sons. They're all musicians and we jam together. I also have 3 brothers, we played together under my dad...these things are unforgettable!

[@roydavidson2633]

It is awesome that they got to play together before the passing of EVH. These are amazing memories that his son I’m sure will always treasure. Well done gentlemen and thank you for entertaining us all these years. Much love and respect.

[@spaceace1006]

Eddie's passing has been very sad for all of us! 😢 The year was 1978, the debut album from this new band called Van Halen! With just that album, Eddie instantly became the newest "Guitar God".. indeed, he literally buried many of the legends of the day. Ed's playing was so advanced that he seriously bruised a few egos...such as Richie Blackmore. In 1978 out of nowhere, this little 23 year old snot-nose punk comes along and just buries the guitar heroes of the day!!

[@timmcfarland2853]

And the fact that so many Michael Anthony fans were so butt hurt over this and didn't understand kinda makes it sad.

[@user-zi9ob2zr7j]

​@timmcfarland2853 To me, those are two different things. Go ahead and feel how you want about Michael but if you have a heart, you just have to love seeing this incredible father and son playing together!

[@timmcfarland2853]

@@user-zi9ob2zr7j That's what I'm saying. If you had a son as talented as Wolfgang, who wouldn't make that decision. Don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of the original VH but times change.

[@BassedInVegas]

When Eddie bought Wolfgang into VH I was pissed, but now looking at how much of a talent we have all discovered Wolfgang to be tells me Eddie made a great choice. Wolfgang has definitely proven himself to be immensely talented in his own right over the last few years and I’m definitely now a huge fan.

@@ColtraneTaylor well, obviously you have not been listening to any of Wolfgang’s songs and I think you might be in a small minority of people that don’t like Wolfie’s songs, he’s totally crushing it with his KZbin viewership, his live shows and downloads are selling extremely well.

Folks need to realize that Wolf and Mike are tight these days. It’s been over a decade. It’s a band folks, not a religion. Poop happens and adults get over it and move on. Just sayin. Peace out groove on.

[@jameslanclos568]

I remember seeing Van Halen on the Jimmy Kimmel show and seeing how proud Eddie was of his son. It had to be one of the greatest moments of his life. And on the flip side, there was Diamond Dave's buffoonery with his karate stick, showing off and then bopping himself in the head, forcing the band to stop while he got medical attention and the bloody stage floor was cleaned !!! But even that didn't mess up Eddie and Wolf's bonding moment.

While watching this, it occurred to me that it has now been over 3 years since EVH's death. Time f***ing flies. The World lost one of the best f***ing guitarists back in October of 2020. A month before his passing, i had to have sudden, life or death, brain surgery,, so my memory, both short-term and long-term, is now permanently all jacked up, but somehow can remember, and have never forgotten, reading about that online on October 6, 2020 during my recovery. I also remember balling my eyes out, too, and thinking, "I don't cry!", amd mever did too much before that surgery. I was 41 years old at that time. After they messed with my brain though, and removed that cyst, i totally changed and became a crier. Lol. Enough rambling though. R.I.P. to one of the best d**n axemen that has ever,.or will ever, live. 🍻

[@SixFingeredAssault]

I woke up to the news of Ed's passing on the 7th, which was the morning after I had to pull the pin on running, and coordinating a local music venue. So for me, music really did die on the 6th, and I'll admit I cried like a baby for the man I never met, but inspired me since I was a child.

[@spaceace1006]

Wolfie has got some really amazing Genetics\DNA!!! His Mom is the Beautiful Valerie Bertinelli! His Dad, Edward Van Halen, son of legendary Classical Musician Jan Van Halen! Apparently, Wolfie inherited lots of talent from both parents! Though he's the Bassist here, I've heard that Wolfie's prowess at the guitar is right up there with Dear Old Dad! Wolfgang should keep the Van Halen Band and Legacy alive!! Keep the name and everything! Uncle Alex is as strong as ever but he's very close to 70 if not there already! Wolfie could bring in some new young blood and keep the "New Van Halen" going!!!

[@davidb7292]

Its not about mike vs Wolfie. Mike is forever cemented as a core part of VH and part of that magic for decades. I think the magic of Eddie playing with Wolfie is something that is so special on a whole different level. The love that Eddie had for Wolfie was so sweet to see. Wolfie has proven himself musically beyond all doubt. His talent stuns me and his joy in playing music is so like Eddie.
