I just made my 18 year old son watch a video of him doing Eruption. What a killer guitarist. Very sad.

How has your son not heard of Eddie VanHalen?! Even I’ve heard of him and I’m 15! 
Rest in peace Eddie.

Sad sad news. Time to relearn Eruption.
Mine too! The synths, to me, give it a moody feel. When I was in 8th grade my grandmother brought me to Menlo Park Mall in NJ and I bought the “Dance the Night Away” 45rpm and when we got back to her house I played that record about 20 times in a row!
