    I saw Van Halen in June of 1981 at the Fabulous Forum on Michael Anthony’s birthday. The loudest concert I’ve been to. In 2002, I was working for Pacific Sales doing appliance installation, and I have a stop on my route that has the last name of Anthony on the order. Low and behold, as I’m pulling up to the house, there’s a guy waiting for me standing on a grassy knoll. As I approach him, he started to look familiar to me. I get out of my truck, and I say holy shit you’re Michael Anthony. I installed a washer and dryer in his house. He was so cool, and he gave my an autographed picture that I have on my wall. I miss him in Van Halen.

    With all due respect, his last name was Sobolewski. I wonder why he would put Anthony on the order. I mean, Anthony is easier to pronounce.

    That’s amazing!!!!!! My brother use to live in LA and he delivered flowers to Valerie Bertinelli from Eddie. He told me last week that he met Valerie, Wolfgang and Eddie at their house in Malibu at some point when he lived out their. He told me he is going to tell me the story about it when he sees me. He moved back to Philly recently, Finally!!!! I can’t wait to see him next few days to hear the story. I’ll post it up here. Hopefully he has photos. He was in a metal band and he restores rare classic cars. Some were featured in movies and videos . My brother Nikki and I were best friends and went to all the rock and metal concerts together.

    Exactly!!! Especially from the people who were here to experience them first hand. I have a folder from 6 th grade which is from late 80s that I did a beautiful Van Halen art work on. It takes up the entire folder. Glad I kept it. I just found it about a year ago. I loved them so much, especially Eddie. I got a bright blue electric G. And l taught myself. I had piano lessons when I was young. Was never good at reading notes and learned freehand.

    Sammy has energy that just doesn’t stop. He brought new life to this band and the records are proof of that. I saw Sammy in 81 in his home town and then again at the Fab Forum in Los Angeles in 83. Two of the best concerts of my youth. Ever grateful that I was able to do that with my best friends as a teenager. Rock on Brenda!

    Eddie's unique skill was not the flash playing of things like Eruption, etc----- but beyond that it was his infinite compositional inspiration----- there would be more musical structure in any 8 bars of any one of his songs than there is in 90% of songs written by other bands. guitar or piano -- didn't matter -- he fit chords and rhythms and melody together more like a classical composer than a guy writing rock songs-- listen to Dreams --- each song is a harmonic little journey through the Elysian fields of the celestial music that was always playing in his head- ----- his ability to capture these fleeting impressions from that inner world was the result of a lifetime of dedication and discipline -- that's why there may be a lot of flash guitar players come down the pike, but there will never be another songwriter composer and arranger and performer like Edward Van Halen. entropy has taken over the gene pool.
