Only 65 very sad. Still love the music.
Cancer sucks, trust me…
I’m so f*cking done with 2020. Wake me up in 2021.
OMG can 2020 get any worse. WTF? Eddie was one of a kind. 1984 was one of my first albums. Love VH!
Just stay asleep…..you won’t be missed
Year have nothing to do, there’s no perfect year. Every year in the Earth die some nice celebrity die.
Jeez ok this is kinda crap tje covid but just TRY at least to stay positive
It’s time for every person to commit suicide today. Let’s end the suffering!
RIP EDDIE VAN HALEN 🖤 We are going to miss you
Imagine being a child on Father and son day … one kid says … this is my father … he’s a doctor …another says his dad is a welder …
Then Wolfgangs turn … “my dad is … Eddie Van Halen .. he revolutionalized the way EVERYBODY plays guitar”…
I heard Eddie was ashamed that Wolfgang was his son ,
@Paul Knowles
That’s why he thoughtlessly fired Mike Anthony so his fat assed kid could play.
@Adatoode Nah he didn’t lol That is just what they are saying now SMH& LOL
So sad to hear of Eddie Van Halen’s passing. Loved the band as a kid and still do to this day. R.I.P. Eddie.
RIP Eddie, a true legend and icon.
Beethoven wouldn’t know how to read music if he had a tape recorder back then.
He may be gone but he’ll never be forgotten WHAT A LEGEND
Truly sad day to lose this great innovator of the guitar. His legacy will continue to inspire many to come.
RIP Loved the music, saw him live, and was inspired to play guitar. Cradle will rock was the start of that experience
Thank You Eddie, you were a huge part of my youth.Give me back the late 1970s and early 80s
I hear that! Those times were the best. Now it’s nothing but a stressful shitshow
I remember Van Halen playing on the radio when I was in the Navy in the late 1970s. It all seems like yesterday. Where does the time go? RIP Eddie.🙏✝️
2020 sux. Someone should invent a time machine. Take me back to the 70’s…..um, non disco 70’s.
Could *not* agree more!
My condolences to Van Halen family. Eddie will be missed 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Jack Stevens was interviewed when David Bowie died at 69… problem is… Jack Stevens is David…
seen them 4 times . Best years of my life in the 80″s. RIP Eddie .
Feel like I just got punched in the stomach, but it’s my heart that hurts. Van Halen is the very definition of great times 😎🎸👍
Caterslave Pfft… must suck to be you lol
R.I.P., Eddy Van Halen from Montreal , U are certainly not” running with the devil ” & the” Cradle will Rock” , alway’s !!!!Great American rock .
Couldn’t remember the bass player’s name, referred to the early 60s and 70s….where did they find this guy??
And the bassist as well he didn’t know his name RIP EVH
Then called him “Marc Anthony” smdh
Mark anthony 1 of the best high tenors in the business.
Another piece of my teen years gone. You were truly the best there ever was. 100 years from now budding guitarist will be trying to get Eruption right. RIP Eddie. Gonna binge listen to VH all day tomorrow. 😫😢
If Hell existed: Eddie Van Halen is battling the devil right now and slaying.
And runnin’ with him, too. 😁
