  • Omg is that... God of rock!?

    ohh... sorry i didnt notice it's his father

  • PRETTY

  • Eddie's got a rug on his head!

  • 1 word. ALIEN.

  • Wow..it's so painfully obvious that some of you people on here really need a life. I hope you wake up one day and see how stupid all these comments are. No way either one of you that are constantly going back and forth can be over 20 yrs old. I blame your parents.

  • @3.22 Guitar orgasms

  • Everyone shut da fuk up and watch da DAMN VID!

  • I never said that he wasn't an extremely good guitar player

  • I think this is happening to me too. I used to be able to do some of his style in high school but four years later I just can't do it much anymore. You notice when he fast picks he pretty much just uses his entire arm now, he used to just flick his wrist like a madman. I do the same thing, I just can't do it anymore. The runs he does require extreme amounts of dexterity and stamina and he probably just can't do it anymore. He was like 52 during this show, and is 57 now. He's just getting old.

  • @BigGameChuck The unfortunate reality is that what you are seeing is actually more related to severe long term alcohol abuse. He still remains one of my favorite guitarists of all time, but denial and rationalization doesn't accomplish much of anything.

  • @kidsTeachGuitar2kids its not God

  • @Lucicsux whats "seig" generic jihad monkey?

  • im pretty sure he wrote all of this and he can play it however the fuck he wants. who the hell is to argue with him?

  • @mrJLarue1 and we may all comment on it as we please

  • ANYONE TALKING SHIT ABOUT THE MASTER, CAN GO SUCK HIS MOMMAS DICK!

  • wow, this is the worst I've ever heard him play, he's missing almost every lick... quite sad, hope he's got it together now.

  • On every EVH video you guys are arguing let it be

  • @tzan699 youre not talking about me, I'm only responding to this video as youtube invites, being respectfully critical of Eruption to which generic dim rote asinine fans of it burst forth in profane off-topic blather, put-downs and threats. This is pretty standard practice among most any fans here, which puts idolatry in the same ballpark as, say, radical Islam. Gotta kill the infidel ED IS GOD!!! ED IS GOD!!!!

  • @Lucicsux stfu

  • EVH is god, Jimi Hendrix is force of nature.

  • 0:23 how does he make such a high pitch on a low fret ? i don't get it >.<!

  • @Lucicsux We get the point. U like the solo, adnoydall hates it. U need to realize that u will never change adnoydall's opinion, & there's no sense trying. Not everyone has ure opinion. JUST LET IT GO!!!

  • @Lucicsux I never said it wasn't, i just said it was over used. Get you eyes checked!

  • @Lucicsux  Are u blind!? I never said it wasn't. I still think it's bad ass, i just also think eddie has over used it. Again, suck it douche!

  • hmm looks like god is a man

  • @IntoVariety247 U may not like eruption, but even u have to admit it is amazing that eddie can do any if his solos after 22 years. Right?

  • @06FreddyKrueger This solo is the best solo ever! EVH is GOD

  • @Lucicsux I disagree. Musically its like a ricer car at Walmart, all full of fart pipes, plastic trim, fat tires, loud stereo, loud paint, sitting there making noise to impress those without fart pipes. Look at me! See my fart pipes! Hear them toot!

    This wankery was much much better in Beat It, where it actually fit the story told, but then actually died as an art form when Ed crammed it into pop fluff Jump.

  • @IntoVariety247 I disagree Noyd, This is the greatest solo, if you can do it, upload it allready. But I will agree on one thing you are a stalking psychotic fuck. O yes, EVH is God

  • @Lucicsux you only wish someone were stalking you, just like you pretend to be Eds Osama Bin Laden on youtube, telling me to die, etc. You're not the subject here, so stop blathering about yourself. stupidly projecting.your hangups onto others.

  • @IntoVariety247 You still Mad Adnoydall? LOL EVH is GOD

  • @Lucicsux nobodys mad enough to create a crude, asinine video non-responding to my legitimate response to the above video. Enough about yourself all the time. Show Ed some respect and keep the stupid generic shit in your ass and throat.

  • Comment removed

  • @Lucicsux I'm sure if you made it deserves a wanky Eruption soundtrack, after all you and Ed are brothers. Enough about you.

    Musically this is a ricer car at Walmart, all fart pipes, plastic trim, fat tires, loud stereo, loud paint, sitting there making noise to impress those without fart pipes. Look at me! See my fart pipes! Hear them toot!

    This wank was fine in Beat It, where it actually fit the story told, but then actually died as an art form when Ed crammed it into fluffy Jump.

    Eddie Van Halen's Eruption guitar solo. Different from original recording, this is the live version.

    Tags: Eruption Guitar Solo  Eddie Van Halen --

  • Nice to see the boys back together !

    Diamond David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen taking over the World

  • Is this the greatest solo? no. Is eddie van halen the greatest guitarist? no. But that DOESN'T matter. Eruption in 1978 redefined the way the instrument is played and sounds. Was Jimi Hendrix the best? No, but he certainly changed the way the instrument was played. Eddie's sound & playing inspired generations guitarists (like them or not). You don't have to think he's a greatest or Eruption's the best solo, but the impact Eddie has on the guitar world is undeniable. so have some respect!

  • @KrisL83 I agree with you, and I feel compelled to openly bemoan Eruptions negative impact on rock, in that it inspired players to wank instead of play music, and thats where a lot of rock is stuck today.

  • @KrisL83 Eds not the issue here, its his fans, who disrespect the views of critics on youtube in generic asinine, profane fashion, in his name, exactly like fans adoring a truly no-talent nobody do, too. Their idols are the excuse to be ugly people, like religion does it for others - screw laws, ethics, even lives "ED IS GOD die of cancer fag ED IS GOD" Aye, cake it all with shit.

    Celebs lock the fugly masses their art attracts out of their lives. Why don't you give them some respect?

  • @IntoVariety247

     Do u have an Xbox live account?

  • @06FreddyKrueger nah, I never got around to replacing upgrading my older electronics and software. I'd have to look into it.

  • @IntoVariety247 And Wolfie has already dun solos and he's pretty damn gud too.

  • @IntoVariety247 If other people took the time as i did to actually get your opinion, maybe they would be such fuckers about your comments.

  • @IntoVariety247 U & i r on common ground ovr eruption. Am i correct?

  • @06FreddyKrueger I'm with you

  • Well, it's hard to tell about this one because the sound is so bad. It seems that he's lost a bit of his passion over the years. A rather lackluster version IMHO.

  • Comment removed

  • @IntoVariety247 Im just so fuckin' sic of people arguing on over opinions. Just give it a fuckin' rest!

  • @06FreddyKrueger how people argue here is whats concerning to others; the ease and even joy with which users issue insults, slurs, threats, etc. youtube is widely self-governed and anonymous, and it allows people to be themselves. And this is something of a mirror of the real world, where it comes from.

  • @06FreddyKrueger I wonder if Wolfgangs gonna feel compelled or oliged to do a showcase bass solo ?

  • @06FreddyKrueger anyway, I do wonder if Wolfgang is gonna do some kind of solo thingy, ever?

  • @Lucicsux What the fuck is wrong with u. Al he's doing is stating an opinion. U're the one whose being a fuck nut about it.

  • @06FreddyKrueger wrong with me? This fucking idiot is spamming me with hundreds of emails a day. Dont voice your opinion if you dont know whats going on. Adnoydall sucks Rhino dick.

  • Im amazed that he can still play anything like this after, in the words of DLR, "22 fucking years!"

  • i was there :)

  • It's a half naked asshole making a bunch of nonsensical racket with a guitar.

  • @epontbriand You must be fookin brain dead,an idiot or both. Eddie is a genius with an axe and always has been. Why don't you and your friends tune in to Justin Bieber and have a good ole circle jerk.

  • @tatorsalad1955 instead of projecting your thoughts onto others why not elaborate on whats supposed to be so hot about this wankery.

  • @IntoVariety247 Wankery? Are you a Brit or just a poser?

    Not projecting anything. You made no comment @ epontbriand so I will assume you aren't a Van Halen fan. So why the fook are you even here?

  • @tatorsalad1955 "wank" is widely defined as "fast, repetitive motion" and thats what Eds doing here. You call it shred, wheres the shavings?

    I don't dislike Ed or Van Halen, I just don't feel that Eruption per se, whichis on the video youtube/TeamDZ invite to respond to using clean language, is supposed to be the greatest solo ever" and explained why.

  • @IntoVariety247 I wouldn't say it was the best but it ain't crap either. There's other artist as good and better. But EV ranks up there in my book. So what's wrong with shred or wank as you put it.I call it riffs.His fans pay to hear that so what's the problem with it. Punk rock,death metal, and rap sound like noise to me, but I'm not a fan of it and I know many people are. I just don't listen to it and I don't berate people who do.

  • @tatorsalad1955 I was playing guitar and learned this when it came out, but never really found a reason to afterward, and never liked music that relied on it. I like to compare it to bodybuilding vs. Olympics, ricer cars vs. Formula 1, WWE vs. UFC, show vs. real

    What I "berate" fans of this wankery over is their refusal/inability to say anything of substance about the music itself, respond to it, express themselves (pretty much a given under most youtube video) instead cuss and spit "for Ed!"

  • @IntoVariety247 I grew up listening to Sabbath, Vandenburg,Pink Floyd, Zeppilan,VH, about everything else including Classical. I guess that makes me somewhat eclectic. What are comparing it to? Haven't heard you offer up anything for comparison. I used to play too, but acoustic.

  • @tatorsalad1955 I had AM radio on 24/7 from infancy, and living in Europe into my late 30 allowed me to see all the big acts in cities everywhere. I liked Zeps guitar best, but never worshiped them as God theres just too much good stuff to find, explore and maybe find a place for in ones personal soundtrack. Eruption had to be learned back when, obviously, but its not all the world needs, and not all the people who don't care for it need to die for VH. Thats what I'm saying here

  • @epontbriand dude, that guitar itself has probably turned on more chicks in one night that you ever can dream of.

  • @epontbriand wow wow wow.. can you do that on a guitar? didn't think so. go "JUMP" off a bridge and go "RUN WITH THE DEVIL" asshole

  • I hate him. no I dont I love him.he rocks.

  • @Louisvillebilly damn fuckin straight!!

  • VAN HALEN IS BACK!

  • Dude, I'm a drummer boy but that was kick phuckin ass!!

  • Speechless!!! The KING nothing else to say!!!

  • My favourite part is when he raped the guitar.

  • @monseratto "rape" haahaahh

    i

  • @monseratto hmmm guitars are considered "manly" pieces

  • @IntoVariety247 Does this turn you on, Adnoydall, that these are manly? Your " bromance' towards Edde God Halen has compelled you to stalk all fans of him, as you want Lord Eddie all to yourself. We read it in your book, " Mein VH Kampf" You are a carbon copy of one, Mark Chapman, this is why Eddie has security to hide him for whack jobs like yourself, in your hometown of where Dahmer murdered all those innocent people. you are a cerebral disaster, Adnoydall. EVH is GOD

  • Comment removed

  • Variety24/7 is Adnoydall, his Noyd account got banned, so Noyd has created his 13th username in the aforementioned. EVH is God

  • Ladies and gentleman, we have finally surpassed Chuck Norris when it comes to playing electric guitar.

  • On topic, this kind of guitar is like a warn bucket of email spam, all yodeling and screeching FREE CRUISE! FREE HOME! FREE MONEY! and when you read thru a few of them a few times, you find they all say "free with purchase" after all. It goes nowhere, on no cruise or to any race, it just jumps madly in place like a monkey on a string.

  • Eddie Van Halen Eruption Guitar Solo

    Can't Wait to see this on the new vanhalen tour 2012

  • @AnonymousLish Son, if you could do without this guitar work, why do you return, thousands of times? Mom and me have bought you a " Tickle-Me-David-Lee-Roth" doll for your loneliness, why do you still come back here so many times? Its to a point to where fans that you creep, will start thinking you have mental problems. Good Lord

  • @KendallsFarter you're the idiot blathering stupidly about being "Kendalls father" and " Tickle-Me-David-Lee-Roth" dolls while the topic is Eruption, and youtube invites to comment on it. Still don't comprendo? Lemme help: This is a musical ricer car where Ed revs his lil engine so the fart pipes toot, tires squeal, the plastic trim chatters, the stereos cranked to 11, but it goes nowhere. No story, no tail, just lookit this! lookit that! watch me do this! listen to this!

  • @AnonymousLish Son, would getting a puppy, ease your loneliness?Only thing is, remember what you did to our last dog? That scares us.

  • @KendallsFarter ah did ogling Ed get you thinking about some form of sodomy as usual? Thats pretty boring, kinda like Eds wanking on 1,2 notes over and over and over.

    But you always outdo yer dim, rote, stupid and asinine: I was "Kendall" for years, and now I'm Cassandra, or AnonymousLish, what? ' course, your blather has nthing to do with the video, which contains some pretty fierce wank. Good golly

  • @AnonymousLish Its clear to see whats on your mind son, you left the dog in the car on a freezing night, remember? I hope Dr Phil can help you with your fetish of anal sex with animals soon, plain to see in your last post. Im suing the condom company that let you slip through. Good Lord. Im sorry to hear about the capture of your officer Osama Bin Lish, son. this will really hurt your youtube network known as " Al-Noyda.

  • @KendallsFarter nobody but you is again blathering stupidly about anal sex and bestiality between Eds legs online but you and thats because "your" (is it? hahahahahah) projecting, and its your zero personality that forces Ed and other celebs to fence you total idiots out of their lives. hahahhahaahaha

  • @KendallsFather Lol. You're right. I am a man. You caught me. I paid a friend of mine to pose for those twenty videos that I created on my account over the last year. It's all an elaborate conspiracy. The friend in all those videos was actually a he/she btw. You hit the nail on the head. Please inform Kendallsucks1. He said he thought 'she' was rather pretty. I'll stop my trolling now. May the cornucopia of love and peace rain down on you & your kin well into the New Year xxx

  • @KendallsFather I look forward to the New Year, don't you?

  • @CatchinProjection To me, you're just not an intelligent person. And I don't want to offend you, it is just a thought. I mean, we all know that there is people who is intelligent and people who are not, and I do not blame them. I could be a perfect stupid, but to me you're definitely not intelligent. And this is not a random insult, I'm basing on what I read by you on every Eruption video.

  • @Totofan09 I'm not on the video, Eruption is, and its what youtube invites us to respond to, using smart words. I can do it easily, concluding its not the "greatest solo ever" without profanity, slurs or death threats in Eds name. Thats not very smart of fans -to claim to speak for Ed when they screech "STFU fag die" This compels celebs to buy security; to keep fans with such manners out of their homes. Its also against the Terms of Service you signed your own name under. On topic?

  • @IntoVariety247 Oh, I never told you words that bad, and I'm not a big EVH fan, I'm just a guitarist. AND, if someone is making the atmosphere so aggressive as you're doing provoking the other utents, I may think, and say, that to me you're not intelligent, even if I may go off topic. And by the way, your arguments about people telling you insults "in the name of Ed" (and I think that this is a big bullshit.) are off topic too. So if you want to talk, talk about the solo and shut up for the rest

  • @Totofan09 youtube invites respond to videos as per Terms of Service. You agreed to this. A normal comment might therefore read "I like/dislike this video (because_)" to which others are free to reply "I agree/disagree (because_)". Specifically, fans say this solo is "the greatest ever" to which I disagree, as I find it lacks a story or arc. Fans retort "STFU fag you can't play this ED IS GOD" Whats so hot about Eruption? "STFU homo suck my dick" I still can and will say what I like

  • @IntoVariety247 Agreeing to the same Terms of Service you talk about, I'm just answering to your dislikes and saying that your way to communicate is unapropriate. Not only saying insults as "fag, nigger, ecc." is kinda "unapropriate" speaking. Everyone should be respectful and should know when something (even if it could be right in general!) piss off people who don't deserve it. Also, "stalking" people with continuous mails is not a good thing to do. You agree, don't ya? :) We are all friends.

  • @Totofan09 I'm not calling anyone "fag nigger" I'm saying "Eruption is stale wank" to which fans of it reply with insults, slurs, death wishes and even death threats. I've been collecting their posts and PMs for years, now, to post on the Web someday soon "Eds American Jihad". Granted most fans on youtube will write the same vulgar stuff. Eds fans just got lucky. Theirs is a symptom of a deeper societal illness, like filming ones urinating on dead Taliban, or beating hobos for fun

  • @IntoVariety247 I know you aren't. But insulting who likes the song, even if you are insulted either, is still something unapropriate. AND, I'm sure you perfectly know how dumb is spending a lot of time, life and strength to this anti-Eruption campaign. I mean, I don't ruin my life if someone thinks different than me; even if he/they insult me. We don't know each other, take it easy! Nice music to you. And, if you happen to, listen to some Toto songs!

  • @Totofan09 I take freedom of speech more seriously here. I'll have my say about Eruption, just as I'll defend my vote in the real world from vulgar, loud, braying lawless types, thats my campaign.These people walk among us on our streets and it stands to reason that they respect the real laws as little as the rules they signed their names under here. When you get an oil change, do you want the filter and all the oil replaced, or just topped off and "fuck it lol its a fag car anyway"

  • @IntoVariety247 You're too drastic. Or simply stupid. I do not claim to offend you. Now, since I don't like talking to people whose only argument is trying NOT to respond to simple questions or adfirmations, seeking to make me say what he wants with a lot of nonsense, I leave you on your keyboard. Have a nice day, by the way :)

  • @Totofan09 I'm not offended. I again responded to the video in a normal voice. And I asked you a few posts ago what was so hot about Eruption, in your opinion, but you kept going on about what I need to do here and at home.

  • @IntoVariety247 I kept going simply because your style is that of fighting (verbally, without insulting, subtly fighting) against Eruption. I don't want to take the conversation on that; since the first asking was me. Thank you for your time!

  • @Totofan09 remember that youtube says: "We encourage free speech and defend everyone's right to express unpopular points of view."

    I don't agree with those who opine that Eruption is the "greatest solo ever" and thats about it. Thank you, too.

  • @Totofan09 Whats so hot about this solo? When, where what is this the perfect song to? Which of the 5 emotions does this cover?

  • @Totofan09 this music is like a street car pimped out like a ricer, with fart pipes, fat tires, loud stereo, loud paint, fuzzy dice, quad wiper blades, plastic trim. Typically ricers park at some lot and show off to each other, whos louder and wider. And thats about it. Theres no race or cruise a la NASCAR or Formula 1, its all just posing like a steroided bodybuilder. Theres no story, just flash and show, which is why I don't much care for it. What say you about this wank?
