That guy lived full throttle, I think my hearing loss is equivalent from high power rifles and BLASTING Van Halen. RIP.

Man, just saw this. What a crapper. Their music was absolutely instrumental and with me all the time when i ran ultras.
Can't tell you have times i felt like crap in the later miles of a 100 miler when Eruption came on the headset........
Talk about a pick me up.
RIP Eddie.

Yeah cancer sucks...one of the coolest stories I have ever heard about EVH was when peavey decided to change the wood they made their amps out of and EVH wasn't impressed. The founder lined up 12 amps with one being made from the original wood that Eddie liked and asked him to tell him which one it was.

He played a couple of notes from each one and immediately nailed the original as soon as he heard it.
