Nice
Van Halen truly left us with something that will never die, even after 35 years the comments are still active, a godlike genius still inspires us
R.I.P Eddie Van Halen
Do you know what 9:28 is called
That cigarette had a better life than me.
Auronil Chatterjee LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
so true
I see. Some Bengali sense of humor.
You were fearfully and wonderfully created by the Living God in His image to live forever. Do not dare to compare yourself with any lifeless thing that appears and disappears. Every human being is twice belongs to God the Father, as He not only created us but also carried us our sins and died in our place when we disobeyed and dishonoured Him, so that we may live with Him forever. Let everything that has breath praise Jesus Christ- The Lord of lords & King of kings !
Berry Jeyasingh bruh, I like religion and all but if this is not a joke, w h y 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 also he is a right, that cig is better then me, lol
Eddie:
*“paid for the whole guitar, gonna use the whole guitar”*
This is one of the best comments I’ve ever seen
What an Asian
@Jamie Lee what? he doesn’t want his purchase to go to waste, that’s what most asians do, you can ask me, I am one
Am I not allow to joke about my own demographic?
And sometimes it holds his ciggies
@@notemusic he isnt asian?
Eddie: “creates one of the most iconic guitar riffs ever”
His reaction: 😃👍
High as a kite
Yeah bruh why does he do that in like every single concert?, lol
This solo made me feel like I was being lifted to heaven that’s how good he is
I like how you use words --- it conveys a real passion
They were even better live! He played to me and a friend, we went to behind stage seats that they didn't open, because then Van Halen toted these massive speakers and stacked them almost to the ceiling. We looked into his eyes and watched his fingers fly, it was awesome and the same night David was jumping higher than we ever saw anyone with leather pants jump, all the while with swords in each hand! Not to mention David's acoustic version of Ice Cream Man was terrific as well. They said Eddie didn't sing, but We saw him singing on Jamie's Cryin.
Ja mam już 54 lat i wciąż wracam do Van hallen
It's a multitude of solos. Medley.
The irony being "Van Halen" literally translates to "From Hell" 😅😅😅
To anyone who doesn’t play guitar: This is very hard.
But so damn fun once you get it
@@sansthedrummer And once the blisters heal.
Yep sure is
to everyone who is a guitarist, this is still hard
I am a guitarist. Can confirm.
I cant even play the wrong notes that fast
Copied Hahaha
hilarious but true for me too lol
Too fuckin funny!!!!!
Hahahaha
I know how to play this song on guitar
Blessed the ones who had the grace of attending a show like this
I guess that's me. I saw this tour/show in 1985. It was my second concert ever. Kiss Asylum tour was my first. Who really appreciates something like this until it's gone. It's kind of like me speaking with someone who saw Led Zeppelin live.
I love how after he finished one of the most iconic performances of all time he went
😃👍
- Dad, why my sister's name is Rose ?

Eddie: *Accidently Plays the greatest solo of all time*
Dude, it's a incredible solo but have some others that are better, Jimi Hendrix or Time By Pink Floyd for example.
@Mr. P it’s called an exaggeration Bud👍
its not solo its such a bullshit
@@tyler3362 stfu nigga
Limey Lemon so while I don’t agree with this man in that this is not a solo because it’s amazing, I feel as though even if one cannot do something they still have an opinion over wether or not the person who’s good at it is doing it well if you get what I’m trying to say. Like others can watch people that lay professionally in the nfl and have negative opinions on them, doesn’t mean that they need to be able to equate to the same level of skill.
Eddie broke Every rule in guitar playing and still ended up being the best guitar legend ever. Rest easy ed 💔
Eddie never claimed he invented tapping. There were other guitar players who performed the tapping way before Eddie did it.
It's just that Eddie performed tapping that no one has ever done before: on the electric guitar.
what rules?
He's 2nd.... To The GOAT 🐐 Jimmi
On żyje kurwa!
@@MadMiktheBull1 no he recently died 2023
I’ve watched this video over 100 times. I don’t think I’ve EVER seen a guitar solo this amazing. Greatest guitarist of all time don’t argue w me. You can tell besides the few snippets he’s taking from his songs he’s just messing around havin a good time like playing in ur basement when nobody is watching and he’s making breathtaking music. Like there’s no way he rehearsed this. This is guitar on expert expert expert difficulty and he does it effortlessly and flawlessly. What makes this even better than it already is is, back then, the internet didn’t exist. This wasn’t even written in music books. He made ALL of this himself. It’s absolutely unbelievable
jimi hendrix
I got to agree with you my friend. I've seen them so many times live myself. I live in South Florida. Every time I see any play now it's like I cry like a little baby. Can't help it. I'm 57 years old. I love Van Halen. They came out 10 February 1978. Actually before that they were Mammoth 1972. So you know it is what it is. They changed their name right before they had their first album. David Lee Roth went to Eddie and told him to change the name to Van Halen so they did. The rest is history you don't. He's so mesmerizing to watch on that guitar. You can't take your eyes off of him. You actually just cry because he's so great.. in happy tears! Well I'm not religious but I guess Eddie is playing for God now. What can I say the world's lost and unbelievable guy and guitars the best in the world besides Hendrix rock on people
Spot on
Tosin Abasi
Good for you I guess. I was so bored of watching/listening to this that I only could watch about half way through before quitting.

A player like this comes along once in a lifetime!
For real, Once in a lifetime👍
Literally cried my eyes out when I heard on the radio he passed. Then they played unchained and I cried some more. Best guitarist ever
No ya didn't.
I envy people who can say: "I was there."
I was there both night of this
Jeff Davis dope
I still remember hearing an interview with Alice Cooper (I think it was him) talking about seeing Van Halen when they were first starting out on the Strip. He said he vividly remembers being in a club with like 10 people in it and seeing these guys all play like they were in front of 10,000 people. He said Roth was jumping around on stage, doing his karate kicks and belting out "aint talking bout love" and Eddie was just shredding the guitar parts and doing his thing. He just said he was so blown away by their energy he knew right away, if they were playing like this in front less than a dozen people with this energy, they were going to make it, no problem. Even then, he knew Eddie was special and everybody in the bar was just mesmerized by his playing.
I can braggingly say that I met the entire band and had the pleasure of seeing Michael Anthony's pad in glendora ca. As soon as I walked into the main door after the outdoor foyer, saw all the dope albums that lined the wall of all the Van Halen albums from 1986 onwards. I knew well enough about Van Halen, but to be meeting Michael Anthony and hearing his stories while my dad and another co worker did the Landscape. Dude the stories I could tell from Michael Anthony's mouth to my ears. As far as Eddie goes, he was in his own realm once he picked up his signature guitar. The guitar riffs and solos are beyond comprehensive. You just have to see it to believe it, like right here. VAN HALEN FAN FOR LIFE TIL THE DAY I DIE. BAR NONE
@@jeffdavis6715 me too
Do you think the man who invented the guitar expected someone to do this with it?
Lithominium no
I highly doubt it. I'm curious to know what his taken on modern metal would be
Lithominium probably he would have added a few more frets for Van Halen if he knew
I like Trains I like ur profile picture
@@legitwizard1704 do I look like I care
I can't count how many times I've listened to this. Seriously, did Eddie even realize how transcendently good these performances were during this era? They're so organic and fluid, while also being perfect note for note 😮
honestly not even a huge rock person but i can appreciate how incredible this performance was, especially for the time. having played various instruments before but never guitar, i for real got some chills watching. can only imagine what that was like in person
He knew exactly how good he was; the groupies swarmed him and he nailed a hotter chick each night.
I'm 23 years old now and I still listening to this live since 18, this legacy solo will forever in Guitar industries and ROCK&ROLL...
fr man seems like this vid dropped yesterday, i remember when i was 13 trying to play this shit lmao im 19 now.
@@wideopenmusic4160did you work it out?
Welcome aboard brother!
Listen to dimebag Darrel too, Eddie buried one of his guitars with him
Maybe there's hope

Best comment!

Whoa, slow down and use lube m8
Since he built me up*
It took forever- but i learned this whole solo on air guitar
Im trying too, but its too hard...
I’m trying and I’m getting there but it sure does cramp up my hands lol
😂😂😂🤘🏼
And I'm still practicing air smoke on the water. I'm so envious right now!
Lollll
The greatest guitarist ever, bar none. Lyrical, melodic, original, lightning fast, versatile and a great rhythm guitarist too! We never see his like again. RIP Eddie.
There are no words to explain the amount of genius and creativity. Absolutely from another world.
The next day
Alex: dude that solo during the show last night was crazy awesome.
Eddy: what show?
his bandmates always to the time to molest groupies while Ed did his wanky shite solos. "Dont stop now, Ed, the drugs got me flaccid, we need more time hahah"
@@bobjones2041 What the fuck. Is this real?

Soooooooo underrated comment.
@@bobjones2041 I'd like to see you perform better than this 'wanky shite solo'. Go fuck yourself.
Van Halen is so cool that even his guitar smokes.
god knows it needed one after that pounding by eddie
Smoking isn't cool.
Stay in school, kids.
@@Kyle-gw6qp it’s a joke my guy Eddie Van Halen and all these other guitar hero’s probably graduated school
I know randy Rhoda was classically trained and he smoked a lot too apparently.
@@Kyle-gw6qp Actually, smoking is cool as fuck, but extremely, and let me say that again, EXTREMELY bad to anybody health.
To this day i still do not understand why science comes so far and they didnt make a fucking ciggar that dont fuck up our body so badly.
So, yeah smoking is very very bad for you, but still cool as fuck.
That scream at 4:44 sounds like something hollering to get out. The way guitar's can just belt out harmonic squeals is just simply magic.
The greatest instrument
The best solo ever in the history of music made me even more excited Eddie you truly rock!!!
The solo was so heavy, even Eddy knew his guitar needed a smoke.
Eddy was build his own guitars, so: He knews what nicotine dosen his guitars needed
I fucking Loled
@@mitchellturnbull3988 Still, after than beautiful show, that guitar needed a smoke!
Damn, Eddy was the shit!
Clever 🤣 🍸👍
Best comment, by far!🤣🤣
*I liked the part when he played guitar*

Idk y but I laughed.
Bro sameeee
Haha funny
#TaalVolcanoEruption2020
So many signature riffs and licks in there that are all his. Amazing guitarist!
I watch this whole concert every year, nobody has ever changed my life as much as this man did. RIP Ed, you're a real guitar god now
He's smiling, he's happy like a child who has just made his first chord on a baby guitar.
Eddie always smiles when soloing... he wasnt a rockstar, he was a kid with a guitar.
R.I.P. and play in heaven, mate!
He's high as a rocket can go, ofcourse he smiles, he's on good stuff. 😆🇳🇱
Nice words
So true, kid with a guitar.
St peter: what was your contribution to humanity?
EVH: I brightened the hearts of billions of people with the music I hear in my heart.
St peter: show me
EVH: I don't have...
St peter: *snaps fingers a guitar appears in his hands with a marshall double stack behind him
I read this in 7:25 and look at screen, his grinning bruh✌. RIP EVH🤘
Do you know why Eddie smiles so much while he’s playing? Because he knows he’s Eddie Van Halen.
Damn true
I could only imagine the feeling
Feeling like the president < feeling like eddie van halen
I think he is smiling because he was drunk actually 🤣🤣
excellent
RIP Eddie. You are great. Thanks for your music.
Rest in peace, Eddie.. And, thank you for making this beautiful music for us all to listen and cherish.
EVH died because God needed guitar lessons.
It was a joke fucker
J Abr and he needed another guitar player for his band in heaven
What about Jimmy Hendrix man

Me too
How could I not?
Why do people always have to ask this when this type of thing occurs????
It's 2024 I am in tears right now! Still can't believe Eddie is gone!❤🎸❤🥀miss you!
Hey he brought joy to untold millions. He also kicked the drugs and lived a full life, just like Alice Cooper. Sure we can miss him but it's better to celebrate his accomplishments!
I am happy he was here on earth with us! 🙏

What a legend. RIP
Dude invented the 80's rock band guitar solo with this.
This guy is the reason I'm playing the guitar. Eddie Van Halen is my favourite guitarist and he always has been. R.I.P Rock God Eddie, you will never be forgotten 🤘❤🕊
Pour moi aussi, c'est un virtuose,avec une telle décontraction, pour lui c'est un amusement,et il a raison la musique est un une façon de s'amuser,et Eddie l'avait compris,il prenait sa au second degré, d'ailleurs dans un interview,il dit qu'il n'écoute pratiquement pas de musique,a part de la musique classique,et Clapton je crois, Eddie ne pensait qu'à s'amuser, d'ailleurs toujours le sourire,un mec bien,sans prétention,et pourtant il fait parti des meilleurs guitariste du monde,je le classé dans 10 premier, Hendrix pour son époque, Jimmy page également , sont intouchable,mais Eddie était unique dans son "trip"rip champion ❤️❤️✌️✌️
I've been paralyzed through 23 surgeries on. My hip but I'm finally healing I'm going to listen to this every time I swim to get better and stronger thank you so much for your music
I remember watching this 10 years ago when I was young and just starting to learn guitar. Finally after all these years I still can't play it.
I spend 1.6 years playing my guitar (during lockdown) and another 2 vigorous years in my youth - with a 6-8 year hiatus before I picked it up recently again (1.6 year ago) and I'm just learning to tackle this beast of a monster. There is quiet an exceptional tutorial online by a guy called Mr. Tabs - I highly recommend you check his videos "Eruption Van Halen Cover | Guitar Tab | Lesson | Tutorial" It's quiet outstanding how accurately this man can play to EvH (and MANY of his other songs) I literally feel like he's channeling the spirit of Eddy when he plays (not to sound too much like a fanboy but he's quiet amazing). I'm practicing this song again (since I could play it but with horrific misaccuracy -- trying to figure out the pieces of the puzzle myself) but after giviing it a go again it really shows me what a freakin genius of a guitar player Eddie was and how respectable he IS in the guitar world because he too me won't ever die. Van Halen will always be around and we will always remember how he and the band changed the face of rock and roll history. 🤘🤘😁😁!!
This is hilarious 💀
But you have your own version don’t you?
nobody can copy perfection. NO. ONE
Sok brother none of us can either but it sure is fun to tap the shit out of the B String :)
I’m glad stuff like this is recorded, for history.
Absolutely!
We are fortunate in that for sure
Agreed. Wish we had access to all this music and videos back in the 70s 80s and 90s.
Yep! Especially for those of us who couldn't be there for whatever reason.
@@mcrchickenluvr f
This man is my idol. In my opinion, he's the greatest to ever pick up a guitar
Egyetértek🙂
Brings me to tears knowing how this amazing talent is now gone. RIP EVH.
Some people want a moment of silence, I just want thirteen minutes of pure guitar bliss. You will forever be a legend Eddie.
Dude tell me this isnt real
This is the best tribute
Flame Drop I wish it wasn’t, check wolf’s Twitter

Not one of, THE BEST
What’s amazing about this performance is he looks as if he’s actually playing Guitar Hero. He’s holding the guitar as if it’s a video game controller. The best. The end.
It would have been a tragedy had this concert not been captured on film.
It would have been like some mythical story some people wouldnt believe lol
@@danielcastaneda4356 lol true
One of there best ever in my opinion van halen never really sounded all that great live..... but here they killed it
We are so fortunate that filmographers had the presence of mind in the day to capture shows like this. Many of us who attended the shows took them for granted and had no idea what we were witnessing - one of the most revolutionary guitarists to hit the planet, but that he was indeed mortal.
They covered it in the genovea convention as a war crime not to capture this concert on film
When you’re smoking a cigarette stuck to the neck of the guitar while you throw picks to the crowd with your right hand and play the guitar with your left, you know you’re the best in the world.
Jimmy Hendrex would be blown away?
Cigarettes gross killed him
Headstock*
I guess it was faster to throw his pick in the audience, when he switches to tapping, rather than stick it back onto his guitar where the sticky tape is holding all the other picks
A true master I would love to see anyone match that drunk or sober
Das ist einfach das beste was je auf einer Gitarre vor so vielen Menschen gespielt wurde. Danke Eddie für alles was Du für die Gitarre und den rest der verdammten Welt getan hast.:-)
I will never forget this. Eddie was a God. Despite what people like to say being a teenager in the 80s was very groovy. This is also a master class in electric 🎸. RIP Eddie
*Whos here after the horrible news? RIP Eddie. Ill practice this song in your honor this week.*
So sad
Forever in our minds Eddie
I just found out.💔😥
Same
RIP Eddie! You will be remembered until the end of time!
You know that you are master of guitar music when you are drunk and drugged as hell and still play like a electric Mozart
Adrenaline kicks the other drugs quickly out
He's sober now and still plays awesome
Lmfao
art peasant+ I agree. How he's able to do that I have no idea. Before I shattered my left wrist, I would get 2 beers in me and I lose my ability to move my fingers fast enough and with lots of mistakes. MY buddy who was a REALLY good guitar player (could play the album version of Eruption among a ton of other songs) and could play just as well after a 12 pack of beer!! Kinda pissed me off that I couldn't do the same, but I'm not even close to how good my buddy (and OFC Eddie) could play. The 2 hardest songs (for me) I could play were, "Over the Hills and Far Far Away" and "Rain Song" from Led Zeppelin and "Ain't talking about Love" by Van Halen". I could still play them if I hadn't shattered my right wrist so bad the Drs were going to amputate it. I still have my hand but lost my range of rotation of my wrist, so it's difficult at best to even play a single chord now and that REALLY SUCKS!!! At least I still can play my "Digital Piano" with an Old School MIDI hooked up to it. So I've got that going for me. LOL.. Rock On!!!!! ;)
@@roberts.3055 I guess it comes with true experience. Get good enough and your hands go on autopilot, that's where I set my goals
This is a masterpiece
And so freaking hard
Van was and still is a legend
Just imagine him rocking this out in heaven
You mean in hell, there is the real party
@@ixk01santiagosinapsis53 that is very true
He rocked out like this because he knew he wasn't going to heaven.

RIP Eddie. You were a guitar god that will never be forgotten
For real
I don’t believe😢😢😢😢😢😢
Right on R.I.P. 💔😭
100%, invented a whole new way of playing guitar, RIP Eddie.
Long live Rock ‘n’ Roll
He's playing the guitar at points like an arpreggiated synthesizer, others sounding like a violin, and others just brutal shredding. This has got to be one of the most impressive live solos in existence
@Xander Hyslop i think its a requirement ;)
Xander Hyslop right absolutely insane
@Party Van! maybe but he knows which notes they were. Most jacks offs cant replay the same riffs after the first time.
@Party Van! thats not always true. Most improve by any decent guitarist will still have roots in theory so they have something to go off of.
@Party Van! the difference between a guitarist and someone holding a guitar thats had practice.
It’s an honor to have the same name as this legend may be Rest In Peace I know he’s shredding in heaven
He was so freakishly and insanely talented beyond compare. R.I.P. Eddie God sure blessed you....

Its the other way round
If u never put that thing down u can prolly play like that
@@axissilver4426 now listen here you little shit
I think it works the other way around

Never forget what he accomplished! 🤘🏻😔
Rip
RIP to an absolute legend in the music industry for his work of the guitar and how he changed the way it was played 🤘
May he Rest In Peace
Fuck yes!
Lyrics: “Now comes my favorite part of the show. It’s my favorite part of the whole evening. We’ve been on tour since March and I have no better time any time than right now ’cause I get to go sit down, have myself a nice cold one, and listen to the greatest rock and roll guitar player in the world, Mr. Eddie Van Halen.”
It kills me there's only 28 million views on this. Where did rock n roll go.
Must've been pretty nice to just close his eyes, knowing that not only did all the people watching him view him as the absolute top, an absolute legend, but that he actually was the top gun. He had reached the top, and there was no one at that time better than him. Wow.

One of the greatest moments in music history
Van Halen: gets so drunk
also Van Halen: does the best solo ever made
Yeah, they drank like fools Eddie had some permanent damage from drinking too much. They drank 10-20 drinks a night. Party animals.
Clay i know, thats not cool. I’m just kidding
@@marcaopenas7329 It's true. He had some hip and back problems. It's good. I like to drink so I'm not putting an F minus on them. They liked to drink. But drinking is like mountain climbing, it can get you.
Clay i agree with you
@@marcaopenas7329 True story. I've always said I'd rather party and die at age 70 than live a boring, conservative live and live to be 90...alone.
The fact that Eddie was blackout drunk and basically running on cruise control is absolutely godlike. You can see his eyes are closed most of the solo because he is running on autopilot for a lot of the solo. Absolute legend
Just a talented individual. Can play better with his eyes closed than almost anyone else with their eyes open...
It’s pretty interesting, Dimebag and EVH are in my opinion the most technically skilled guirarists of all time, and both were supposedly black out drunk for most shows. It almost seems surreal that they could do that
idk people can say hes drunk, but hes sweatin like a pig. im sure hes more sober than you think. the mindset hes in is unimaginable though, and probably uplifting to a level of clarity most of us couldnt understand, drunk or not
A lot of musicians play with their eyes closed, nothing to do with running on autopilot because they are black out drunk, you are the stupidest person to ever, he doesn't even look drunk
@@john2357 what about SRV
Saw these guys open for Black Sabbath in 79 at Cobo Hall in Detroit. Nobody ever heard of em and didn't have any idea what to expect. I think they were popular on the west coast..Talk about a WoW moment.. They rocked the house.
It's such a loss to the world to lose one of our greatest pioneers of rock n roll ! Eddie was a master on that guitar !! GOD needed a guitarist and you will eternally be missed . Octavias

I wish I could go back and spend a day with Eddie. That would honestly mean the world to me. He was the guy that made me pick up a guitar. Forever you will be remembered. Edward Van Halen. An absolute master at guitar. And He is the greatest guitarist to ever live period.
Therapist: Where did he touch you?
Guitar: Everywhere.... and I liked it!

The level of skill needed to even play the easy parts are tremendous.

@Boer he said he's joking
Boer people still use that? Ha
I watch this video a couple times a week and im blown away each time i rewatch it ive never heard anything like it before i didnt know a guitar could sound like that its perfect in every way
Eddie is dearly missed but his legacy lives on forever. Rip Eddie!
I lost my husband 8 years ago. He once told me Eddie was the greatest guitar player on Earth. I have a feeling he is pretty well jazzed listening to Eddie strum those strings now. RIP Eddie and my Dean.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully, they both are in a better place now.
@@kinjaldas225 thank you for your kind words.
I bet they had some sweet heaven jams
@@powdershredder1136 I like to think they are. Thanks.for responding.
My dad told me this when I was young.... now the feeling that this brings its too much... one love to all of them up in the sky...
do you think the people in the crowd realized they were witnessing one of the greatest concerts in human history?
I will go back to the past just to go to that concert infinite times just to witness that moment 🙏🏻
Of course. How could they not.
Yep!!
I feel like a lot of them were just enjoying the moment. Something we should be doing so much more of today.
Yes we did ...New Haven Coliseum CT !!!...The Coliseum has been gone for years and now EVH is too ....What a shame ...But what a time it was !!!
Rest in peace Eddie. The best there ever was, the best that ever will be.
PURE BEAUTY
Eddy after the show: that guy sounded pretty good
Eddie after the show: What show?
eddie after the show: where my cigerattes?
700 likes short
😂😂
Eddy be like where my deoderant
It’s tradition to come back and watch this every now and again.
I don‘t go more than 2 weeks without it
I watch this every 3 days
It’s Sammy’s favourite part of the whole show after all
If you look back when David Lee Roth was lead for Van Halen, Eddie would make the guitar talk. It would actually mimic words that David was singing. We loved it ❤!
