    Eddie was actually very humble. I met one of Van Halen's roadies and he said Eddie would sit down with kids and play for them before a concert and basically told them he doesn't know where it comes from. he said he is just channeling something from the universe. Something just flows through him. He didn't take credit for it.

    This is why Eddie was the greatest guitarist that will ever be. He did things with the guitar that no one had ever done before and no matter how drunk he was during a concert it was exactly like it was on the record when he first recorded it unless he was purposely making changes to extend the performance for the enjoyment of the fans. There is a very good reason that GUITAR WORLD MAGAZINE gave him the title of "Guitar God!" No one will ever play as creatively or as jaw dropping as King Edward did may he never be forgotten. ♥️🌹

      It's basically a slap bass thing. One time I went to a Billy Sheehan bass clinic where he was showing some slap technique. I asked if he could demonstrate the opening to Mean Street. He replied, "Man, if I had a nickel for every time a guitar player asked me that..." *cue audience laughter* It was at that moment I realised I had just outed myself as a guitar player in a room full of bassists lol.

    Saw him 8 times in concert, met him once with a back stage pass, shook his hand and spoke with him for 5 mins as he autographed my Ibanez RT650. Had front row seats with my 65yr old dad who also seen VH 14 times since 1978. I bought the 5 star VIP pack in 07 during the Roth reunion tour just so my dad could meet his idol ... David Lee Roth. It was a dream come true and a night I will hold dear to my heart til the day I leave this earth. Thank you so much for reacting to this fine moment in rock history and paying respects to a man who changed the world as we know it.

    While everyone is fascinated, as they should be, about his obvious genius and other worldly playing ability, most forget that during that solo, he wasn't picking or strumming the guitar, he was using one of the tuning knobs and the neck strings to make the guitar sound like a violin!!! How in the hell do you even come up with that?!?!?

    Eddie Used To Win classical piano contest when he was a child before he could even read music. One year for Christmas his parents bought him a drum set and bought his brother Alex a guitar. Alex being the older brother just kind of took over the drum set and so Eddie decided to go steal Alex's guitar and try to learn how to play it. He did everything by ear. He would sit all day everyday and just play around with the guitar a lot like what he was doing there and if he ever come across a riff that sounded good then he would record it and then build a song around it. Of course being able to play keyboards he did the same thing with the organ and the piano. If you notice he kind of plays the guitar like a piano.
