[AziertiJo]

Aaaaaaaaaaaa Nomames El DIos DEl Tapping uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[Queenrocks1997]

no way!!! he's guitar seems like going into fire if you can see, several times!!!! ex at 0:38 !!!

[VoLCoMzYaDiGG]

@Queenrocks1997 look at the top of the neck of the guitar, close to the head. Its his signature thing to put a cigarette between the guitar stings, lol its not smoking, its just a cigarette...

[Nickhead87]

At 1:25, it almost looks like he's at peace while playing.

[SAMUELDW007]

SUPER SOLOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xxfaultxx]

1:07 = win

[thomstomm]

0:00 Rape the replay button please.

[thomstomm]

ALL HAIL LORD VAN HALEN!!!

[Antimalwaregeek]

he just taps endless threats randomly? hardly a talent. planned well though out meaningful solos are much beter IN MY OPINION, BEFORE U GO MENTAL

[SpeedyFerrari1]

@Antimalwaregeek in case you didn't notice, he was actually tapping and strumming at a rhythm, not just doing random notes.

[Antimalwaregeek]

@SpeedyFerrari1 KK well i play guitar and i can safely say this is just random shit he tapped (which sounds awful anyway) which he is very lucky to remember

[necron33]

hey guys, anyone have a TAB or COVER in 0:46 - 0:58 ?

i can't see a TAB or Cover here..

[ApocOfWind]

@necron33 it's Bach's piece :P it'll be really hard to find a tab for this

[necron33]

@ApocOfWind ow too bad ;)

[keyblade280]

i just noticed @ 1:34 ish theres smoke comming from the guitars machine heads

[keyblade280]

4 people havn't erupted

[thebehmont1]

Is there an easier thing than index finger tapping?

[Lucicsux]

@thebehmont1 yes, your mother....oooooh....FTW

[ACDCROCKS9601]

Alex aint lookin to good......

[TheStuntDolls]

he was young

[jimbo1306]

best guitarist ever dude!

[Fashoboy12]

And every girl in the crowd became pregnant! :D FRICKN SWEET!

[amykid92]

oh my ... 1:16 smoke !!!

[lolagepwnageownge]

@amykid92 That's just his cigarette :P

[GrunesMannchen]

hope that cigarette doesnt burn his guitar..

[JohnTheRipper2]

i bet the pickups on his guitar are just for show. i bet he doesn;t need pickups because the solo is so frickin awesome it just makes the amplifier produce wicked sound! If any other band member played during his solo you wouldn't hear that member, just the solo :D frickin awesome

[beaschwii]

i just jizzed in my pants!

[moofish127]

@AntiZexion He sure did!!! He has got to be one of the greatest musicians that ever lived.

[AntiZexion]

I...i think he just took my virginity with this song

[TheDarkDimensions]

he probably needs to buy a new guitar everytime he does that solo because it would overheat..

[losaface4]

1:34 Like it's nothin'.

[sa46464]

okok esta chido pero no es mi estilo

slash es el best -_-

[Aremine]

synyster sucks my hairy balls since hes just an emo gay

[aceofkills]

Synyster Gates says the Eruption solo is gay, and so the Eruption solo must be gay. GAAAAAYYY!!!!

[DarknessxDuox666]

DragonForce broke a couple weeks ago. Anyone else agree that they were a fake metal band? i know i do.

[MultiDarkSlash]

MY MASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[raphead545]

hey dude u rock at guitar

[xtian2003]

wooow!!1

PERU !!!

[Randomness84726]

It's kind of creepy that a guitar can make that sound. But Eddie Van Halen is an amazing guitarist

[kissman120]

who is the fastest guitarist ever?!

[musicvidsgalor]

boxhead

[jimmy51595]

@kissman120 that would be a somewat hard choice, Buckethead and the famous Dragonforce Herman Li. Herman I think in general is the best and fastest :)

[9pac78]

u can see the orange part on the cig

[UrbanGuitarists]

Dude, i could play that anyday with broken fingers hanging upside down and a pig in my mouth,

:D

[mychemaddict1]

MARRY ME EDDIE. <3

[CallOfCarson]

i love how he has a blunt sticking out of his guitar neck =)

[shatteredshit]

@CallOfCarson thats a cigarette dumbass

[CallOfCarson]

dude are you fucking serious no cig is that fat thats a fucking packed joint

[shatteredshit]

@CallOfCarson whatever it is, its not a blunt, they wouldnt have him smokin weed in the middle of a concert..

[96GuitarDude]

@aclub369 do you play gtar? if so you shuld know that, that is tapping and isnt very hard once tapping has been learnt

[Skankaman2468]

@aclub369 with fingers of a demon

[10thmaggot]

I dont like the Body for his Sig Guitars he should of just stayed with the Strat Type Bodys he had

[sgtcool5005]

he had a cigarette in guitar

[d2rsplayer]

1:06 is the best par!

[MegaTkhan]

ethan chazbani of new york can play this with no flaws just like eddie

[Jamesg104]

hmm by tapping

[MadMax2472]

my guitar teacher is trying to teach me the part that starts at 1:06 its impossible

[d2rsplayer]

haha i can bearly red the tabs =D

[Tchernobog92]

John Pettrucci vs. VH?

OH SNAP

[Rob919Gore]

@Tchernobog92 comaring petrucci to Van Halen is like comparing an apple to an orange they are both equally good but in different ways

[dotarpg]

harmonicos destruidores!!!

[terminaterjohn]

Top 5 Guitarists:

1. Yngwie Malmsteen

2. Michael Angelo Batio

3. Sam Totman

4. Rusty Cooley

5. Ritchie Blackmore

If u don't like the list then as Johnny plague says: Get the fuck out!!!!!!

[CsoccerD]

JIMI HENDRIX IS IN THE TOP FIVE!

[sniktawleahcim]

..no.

sorry.

[CsoccerD]

yes

[CsoccerD]

hahah you got marked as spam

[CarlosSoaresVieira]

and page from led zepplin??

[terminaterjohn]

Satriani taught Kirk Hammet how to play, but who makes more money and who makes more catchy riffs. It's all about the music son!

[sniktawleahcim]

Satch makes catchier riffs..

and your point about making money is one of the dumbest there is.

if you think kirk is better because he makes more money, than britney spears and hannah montannah are better than kirk because they make more money..

[terminaterjohn]

Well now you're talking about image, if the jonas brothers were fat lards, do u think they would have as many fans? Satriani and kirk are all bout music and not image. Kirk has catchier riffz and that is why he makes more money!!!!

[sniktawleahcim]

i think satch makes catchier riffs, i feel like you maybe just havent heard enough of him.. oh.. satch doesnt make riffs. he makes solos.

i think kirk does bank a little bit on image.. kids these days buy metallica t-shirts just to look cool, even though they couldnt name half of metallicas songs.

[terminaterjohn]

Now maybe but not before... With Cliff burton they had no videos or radioplay and their music was phenominal.Same shit with Maiden. No mainstream for them but look how successful they r because of their music. No Kirk has some badass riffs and Badass solos. solos dont have to be complicated but just good. That's what music is. Kirk 4ever

[iAmStarStrukk]

is his hand on fire?

[iAmStarStrukk]

ITS GOD!!!

[HoratioMing]

im almost certain i saw lightening shoot out of the guitar

[Woolstones]

lol

[TheDatanet]

@HoratioMing it did....

[imnumber1bitches]

@HoratioMing i think i saw it too!

[gooberific62]

@HoratioMing i swear that god made him that guitar!!!

[keyblade280]

@gooberific62 god made it, jesus blessed it, and eddie was presented it by the followers

[TheRockerDude3]

watching this makes me say to myself how will i ever get that good playin guitar. lol.

[lespaul702]

It's not really that hard, but it is amazing that he came up with it, that's ingenious

[THALIDO]

The original master. There is only one EVH.

[ScottXC91]

Not quite the original master.

[SmokeAnOunce]

1:32 I THAUGHT HIS GUITAR WAS BURNING

[DaveMaidenMurray1]

0:30 - 0:45 1:06 - 1:42 totally orgasmic

[AwesomeKangaroo]

He is so awesome that he holds his cigarette between the strings on the headstock.

[benny704]

will he be awesome when he cant find a way to smoke it

which is happening as you watch this video

[SadMonk7]

right a cigarette... yaa thats weed

[eddiefan36]

no he wouldnt waste it

[catapei]

he did it

[Neptune737]

alright dipshit(excuse me, i mean chongwong) a lot of today's players give influence to older players like Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Angus Young, etc., so dont go off talking smack about old players. And Eddie, in my opinion, started the shred scene. So dont talk smack about any player. I will admit, modern players like John Petrucci, Steve Vai, Satch, and Eric Johnson are good, but EVH is a legend. End of story.

[xxtodger85xx]

most of this song really isnt that hard to play, ill post a video soon showing the easy parts for beginner tappers =]

[SilverSurfar]

wow, people were saying this solo is awsome, haha fingertapping is the easiest thing ever, and wow does he look like a fag and whats with the smoke on the end of his guitar? this guys a joke

[ShiningSpear]

lol, okay, come back when you've accomplished what he has. You're the fucking joke here.

[bassplayer18a7x]

one of the best guitarists ever, amazing i really like his sound its really clean.

[Evanhalf]

you can definately tell where dimebag got alot of his inspiration

[plamore]

yea herman li is a fuckin fake up the asshole, Halen makes herman li look like a fuckin 5 year old

[bassplayer18a7x]

amen, fuck herman li

[bluepenguin7647]

ok Van halen is a fuckin beast and anyone who says otherwise can go shove it straight up their ass

[Senses008]

my face just melted

[trex0x0]

why melt i erupted

[ButcherChunks]

I erupted in my pants.

[rockfan546]

EDDIE VAN HALEN IS GOD

[eLySiaboi]

dude that sounds soo sick! :]

[xXGaaraoftheFunkXx]

1:06-1:19....Epic!

[Gatillquet]

thats actually the easiest part to play, its still hard but the easiest of the song.

[Unacceptable76]

So true! I also think mathew bellamy is another great guitarist though, but EVH is pretty good.

[bhs15bill]

u know someone is AMAZING at guitar solos, and general playin when u get goosebumps everytime u hear this. And i listen to this solo alone about 2 or 3 times a week and never gets old!!!!!

[fredios93]

one word.....LEGEND!!!!!

[BMWxM3xGTR]

finger tapping rocks :) its easy to make a guitar solo with finger tapping, for me atleast

[11ari11]

that doesnt look like him at all

[doctaword]

i think its before he did drugs lol

[dor1t0m4n]

it's from the nineties

[hahahav]

I know!!

[Aurileus5]

Jonny Greenwood should make some of the lists of contemporary players. He's extremely innovative.

[TacoWhitey]

every single list ive seen thus far has left out randy rhoads

[biskitboii911]

lol the ciggarette on the head lmgdao

[danilotodo]

at 1:06 it sounds something like "One" from Metallica

[xIMPERIALx]

eddie is fat lmfao

[spongebob541]

lol to the smoking cigarette on the neck

[dudeiloveeggs]

for me

1.Jimi Hendrix

2.David Gilmour

3.Allen Collins

4.Eddie Van Halen

5.Nuno Bettencourt :D

[yondaime597]

0:46 to 1:05. I need tabs for those. please help! if anyone can it get much appreciated.

[soccaguy718]

1. Jimi Hendrix

2. Eddie Van Halen

3. Slash

4. David Gilmour

5. Joe Satriani

[stratboy69]

I Don't know if Slash is as good as everyone says....

[chongwong]

he's not, i really like his sound, but u gotta say technically there are many far better thatn him, satriani, vai, van halen, petrucci

[negromusician]

fuck off...just leave out hendrix dope guy he IS the best regardless of what you think

[chongwong]

he isn't mate, he was of his time, but by the standards of todays players he's not that great. He wouldn't be named a virtuoso. Listen to his foxeey lady and then listen to the g3 live in tokyo version u'll see what i mean

[negromusician]

you obviously like metal, and there is no reason argueing cause you won't get what i say...

[chongwong]

haha, what a pleb, not really mate, u shouldn't be so presumptious. It just so happens that most metal material is relatively difficult to play because of the speed, i prefer soul or or excuse me for the description 'electric gypsy style' music(can't really think of the genre atm) classic rock, even surf style rock. And i attained ma grade 8 2 years ago so i have fairly decent knowledge of musical theory.... Anyhow ma point is spit it out and stop trying to look clever

[negromusician]

man.... thnk wat the fuk u want

[chongwong]

haha, you've just shown the sign of a true idiot. Starting an argument which yuo can't close

[negromusician]

pfft yeah sure man... just dw cause i'll think what i want, and i was trying to look clever? man you could just say what you think and not attempt to bag me out...besides. i see you know your shit but i don't care. that's what i think. maybe it's cause i'm black, maybe it's cause i like blues and general rock. either way it doesn't matter many more people think what i think. and man...my first comment wasn't even directed at you.

[chongwong]

and all i did was offer my own oppinion, and don't pull the race card because i said nothing remotely racist, i am very partial to blues myself, but in technical ability he's not as good as many

[negromusician]

fahhhhh man read the comment, neither did i.

[godofwar106]

there is no doubt that some of todays players are good but there is no one who is better then eddie..... there is no argument....eddie is god..... slash,richie, there good but just not as good as van halen and they are amazing

[chongwong]

i reckon i could offer a few michael (middle name here) batio, satriani, via, maybe actually marco sfogli and andy timmons, but i just blike those last 2 folks style alot

[tswan0104]

He is Van Halen dip shit...Exclude him from your list next time LAWL

[chongwong]

that was just an unfortunate drunk error, don't judgeme. ;-)

[tswan0104]

HAHAHAH Now that's understandable ;)

[XxRoTtEnPoTaToxX]

1. Jimmy Page

2. eddie van halen

3. slash

4. allen collins

[lgsmarson]

1. Jimmy Page

2. Slash

4.Eddie Van Halen

[Rai2K6]

[TidsEpok]

You are a real fucking idiot. How the hell can you put Herman Li above Jimi Hendrix? Herman Li can't even play his songs live! Hendrix is a god! Asshole.

[iAmStarStrukk]

herman li is gay fuck studioforce

[gooberific62]

@iAmStarStrukk who ever dislikes this vid must like fake guitar playing fuck studioforce

[Aashish343]

@iAmStarStrukk herman li is also a good guitar player but NOTHING COMPARED TO EVH

[BurialWarlock]

@iAmStarStrukk Have you seen herman Li Play at g3? Guys got some skills. Did a sweet solo to Voodoo Child. But I'll agree he has nothing on Van halen

[Zimbobway69]

damn thats one GOD of an guitarist! and that goes to show that when you need a cig you NEED a cig!! haha (cause he has one in the tuner of his guitar)

[Ganondorf42]

This my friends; is the greatest solo alive.

[VIPBullseye]

|He has a ciggerate or however you spell it on the tuner
