060: Eddie Van Halen Tribute

060: Eddie Van Halen Tribute

“Where were YOU when you heard the news…?”

No one will EVER forget the day that Eddie Van Halen left this world. And the reason we will never forget is because Eddie Van Halen CHANGED this world in such an incredibly profound (and incredibly METAL) way that he can only be described as unforgettable. There have been many copycats and imitators over the years, but to paraphrase from The Highlander: “There Can Be Only ONE Eddie Van Halen!”

JOIN US as we pay tribute to the GREATEST, most innovative and un-orthodoxically BRILLIANT guitarist to have ever blessed music: Mr. Edward Lodewjik Van Halen.
