DLR made Van Halen, without him, they were just another band, didn't care much for Sammy

Van Halen and Diver Down were seminal albums for me.
Sad news, this.

Very sad news.Saw Van Halen at the Rainbow in 1982 IIRC.
Dave Lee Roth was a cunt who was a right moody tart but as mentioned they were not as good without him.
R.I.P Eddie

65. No age. And the Big C strikes again. I fucking shit that disease. Always thought they were better off with Sammy Hagar. (Roth was a twat. Maybe still is.?) Even if that music ain’t to your liking. That solo in Beat it is enough to be remember by.
RIP Eddie.

Was working with Van Halen in late '70s. Got thrown off the Tower of London by a couple of Beefeaters who got moody because the band were dressed in Coldstream Guards uniforms.
Good Blokes.
RIP Eddie

Sad news.
Bloke was a savant / genius.
Sadly, he helped invent ubercunts like Vai, Satriani and a billion worst-ever LA shitebands. With no style or humour.
I may even regress and listen to Fair Warning. RIP, Edward.

I'll second that - whatever you think of MJ, the way that guitar solo just rips out of the speakers is still magic.
RIP Eddie.

Roth was a twat? Of course he was! But he was a "rock star".
And Van Halen died as a band the day Roth left*. I can't even name a VH song post 1984. All shit, probably.
