omg this vid pissed me off so much. y the fuck is eddie playing tht guitar if he went threw this whole thing about the frankenstein and wat not.. and plus tht guitar's sound is madd messy.. but the do have a nice feel/look to them. but seriously its eddie van halen. y he playing tht guitar?
they cant be bought; they were custom made. They never offered them for sale. I emailed Converse years ago and this is what they told me. Make your own with paint and patience. I did for my kid and they look great.
I was there too and yes, it was a great show. I saw them on the Diver Down and 1984 tour. Seeing them again brought back a lot of great memories. I drove up in a snowstorm to see the 1984 tour in Hartford. Most of us grew up in the 80's and these guys were our soundtrack to OUR teens. Eddie's a guitar god. Dave may not jump 15 feet off the drum riser any more but he is still a great frontman. One thing I was disappointed with was that they didn't have the huge "VH" above the stage.
thomasblacksheep; hes not using a Peavey; its the new EVH Wolfgang soon to come out; built by Fender. Look at the new headstock if you can find a pic.
The Peavey Wolfgang is one of the nicest playing guitars ever. Way slicker than alot of the crap out there.
wendelmania, wow! you're right it is a fender. man it looks just like peavey custom shop. my bad. still fender has a hard time with duel humbucking pickup guitars. had an american standard with duels in the lead position. had to change them. thanks wendelmania! keep rocking.
true, Fender has a hard time selling dual humbucker models, but his model is made by them but wont say Fender; EVH brand. Plus any brand Ed endorses will sell; he sells more than all other artists models combined.
I saw Halen in Philly and it was FUCKIN LOUD....shook the whole arena! Anyone going to see this tour is in for a real treat...the band has all the cocky attitude from the early 80's but they dont fuck around as much...it's all about the music and they are playing FUCKIN' TIGHT AS SHIT!!!
He;s been playing the same solo for the past 22 years, The best solo was from the 1984 Tour, he played alot of blues clapton style, Tru to find the 1984 Tour at the madison Square Garden in NYC... I was there
That show was way too loud, or maybe it was just because i was right near the front where the speakers wear, either way it rocked. My ears are still ringing.
That was quite literally the best show I've ever been to. I was 4th row on Eddie's side... it was BEYOND loud. I've never worn (and never will) ear-plugs, and I just got my hearing back this morning. Worth the 3 and a half-hour drive and every penny!
Eddie's awesome, but it seems he plays that same solo every tour. Actually the 2004 reunion tour where he was still using drugs/alcohol, he played something a little better.
I am SO glad I didn't shell out $200 to see this. I'm a HUGE Van Halen fan, but I saw them back in their glory days, '79-'83, and even though they sound good here, the stage show and energy level is nowhere near what it used to be, and it ain't worth $200, not by a long shot.
I was at this show, pretty awesome. I hope someone got Alex's part, when Ed's rig cut out in the middle of Somebody Get Me a Doctor. THAT was some amazing, improv. drumming.
He makes his guitar sound like a whale.
HE's amazing!!!

I'm not that impressed with this perfomance at all...
I wish he could focus a little bit more in what he's playing and try to come up with something new in his solo.

He's not trying to impress, plus that solo is his trademark and that's what the people love to hear.
