“Unfortunately we just recently lost one of the most brilliant guitar heroes. Eddie Van Halen’s razzle-dazzle guitar-playing — combining complex harmonics, innovative fingerings and ingenious devices he patented for his instrument — made him the most influential guitarist of his generation and Van Halen one of the most popular rock acts of all time. His outpouring of riffs, runs and solos was hyperactive and athletic, making deeper or darker emotions feel irrelevant. I feel so incredibly lucky I got to see him play and if I would have known that it was the last time, I would have taken millions of more shots.” – Katarina
