Some people think a song without words isn’t a real song. Tell that to Beethoven and he’ll kick your ass!

Eddie Van Halen

I’m just a guitarist in a kick-ass rock and roll band. What more could I ask for?
EDDIE VAN HALEN

Guitar Instrument Musician Myself
When Van Halen started out, there was no path to fame. We just played what we liked. Even today it always comes down to the simplicity of rock and roll.

It’s all about sound. It’s that simple. Wireless is wireless, and it’s digital. Hopefully somewhere along the line somebody will add more ones to the zeros. When digital first started, I swear I could hear the gap between the ones and the zeros.

It’s always a Catch-22 situation. They hate you if you’re the same, and they hate you if you’re different.

I’ll be making music ’til the day I die. I’ve done all kinds of stuff, and more is coming.

The name Van Halen, the family legacy, is going to go on long after I’m gone.
EDDIE VAN HALEN

Family Legacy Myself Name
I never dreamt of being a musician for my livelihood. I certainly never would have wanted to be in the business that I’m in, meaning the fame and the glory, the glitter, the rock star, the famous part.

A guitar is just theoretically built wrong. Each string is an interval of fourths, and then the B string is off. Theoretically, that’s not right, all the strings should be off.

I’m the one in the band that said I’m not going on tour unless we do a record.

I boil the strings so they stretch.
EDDIE VAN HALEN

I’ll always leave the same set of strings on my guitars when I’m recording. If I break one I’ll just replace it instead of putting on a whole new set of strings.

There’s a plaque on our wall that says we’ve sold over 65 million albums, and I don’t feel I’ve accomplished anything. I feel like I’m just getting started.

I just consider myself slightly left-of-center. I’m not your average bear. I – what’s the word? I’m not – normal.
EDDIE VAN HALEN

I was trying to take the band in a direction that I thought was appropriate, and Roth was trying to take the band in more of a Las Vegas direction. And there he is.
