I'm pretty sure that's the now red with white and black striped frankenstrat that Eddie still has.

Eddie did bury one of his guitars with Dimebag Darrell Abbott, of Pantera. It's Eddie's black and yellow-striped Charvel electric guitar which was pictured on the inner sleeve and back cover of VHII :


Cool story to go with that.

Dimebag designed the dean razorback guitar just before he died. He got to use one a few times.
He had one made which kind of had the same paint scheme as Eddies. But he also had one made for Eddie in the yellow. He had one made for Zakk Wylde with the rust and bullseye finish. He also had one made for Kerry King of slayer but with a rust and tribal graphics...A razorback V.

Can't wait......but I still think it's a big mistake to not have Michael Anthony back with the rest of the original lineup. He is the backing vocals of Van Halen.
I still say they were piping in his voice on the last tour.

the show was awesome, saw the rescheduled show in Dallas after Eddie had his issues, whatever they were and they really had their stuff together that late in the tour. Took my son who was 17 at the time and it was his first concert. Wolfgang can play the bass ok but he just stands there, certainly no Anthony.

Great choice on I'll Wait. That's my favorite song on 1984.

Here's my favorite Sammy song:

Van Halen Album Rumored To Be Nearing Completion

Tuesday, 29 March 2011

The Van Halen News Desk (VHND.com) was the first to report last December that Van Halen were set to record a new studio album with Grammy Award winning producer John Shanks. In January, Shanks confirmed this via his Twitter account.
Today, respected Metal Show host, Eddie Trunk, tweeted that he heard gossip from a “reliable source” that the “VH album is close to done and will come out this year. Label TBD” This matches up perfectly with what we heard from a trusted source at the beginning of March – that the recording process is going great and the band is starting to mix the new tracks. Also, from another reliable source of ours today, we hear that this Fall is the most probably time that the album will be released and a tour will begin.
Get ready, everybody…the Van Halen juggernaut is gearing up!

would be great if Roth and Hagar could both could hit the stage on the next tour but I don't know what Roth songs you cut out of a concert, they can only play so many.
