I, like many of you reading this guitar blog, grew up watching and being inspired by Edward Van Halen. He had the coolest guitar tone - the "brown sound" not to mention a wicked looking guitar and a hot wife to boot! Growing up I often played along with my VH record collection emulating my guitar hero wishing there was some magic "guitar pill" I could take to be just as good as him! Now, many years later I still get goose bumps hearing him play. It's a religions experience watching him dazzle audiences with his technique and showmanship - a lesson most guitar players of today lack. Do yourself a favor and listen to "Van Halen 1" and hear the passion in every note. I have often wished what it would be like to meet my guitar hero. Now that he is sober I hope to one day get him to sign my Kramer and Wolfgang. Cheers and congratulations to EVH - my guitar hero.
