One of the greatest drummers and greatest guitarists dying in 2020, as if we needed more proof this year totally sucks…
🤘🏻😔
THOSE ARE THE ONLY NON HOAX DEATHS LOVED BOTH THESE LEGENDS
My idol …RIP
Both about the same age of cancer.

Condolences to his family.
Eddie is a Goat! RIP EDDIE! Your fans will miss you!
2020 continues to really, really suck.
Worst year ever!
patr70 Can always count on a brain-washed moron to bring up politics at the most inappropriate times. This guy was a rock legend. No one was, or wants to, talk about your political bullsh*t.
Btw, genius…Eddie was a liberal. So is his brother, Alex. In fact, so are most rock musicians. You should stick with country.
@Clockwork Orangutan I SERIOUSLY Doubt Eddie Van Halen would have Voted for Joe Biden..
patr70 LMFAO. You think he (or most any) rock musician would vote for trump? Oh yeah, rock gods just love the GOP. HAHAHAHAHA. You just keep living in that bubble, little guy. Enjoy your Kid Rock and Ted Nugent. 🤣
@Clockwork Orangutan I just think they are ALOT smarter then to vote for Joe Biden..
Partied at many school keggers in the 80s and jammin to VanHalen R.I.P. Eddie you were a Legend
Us gear heads are in shock. A damn legend was lost today.
I think it’s more than just the gear community that’s lost a legend today 😉
I will see you Eddie Van Halen , I will see you.
2020 is just awful. Eddie, I hope you know how many souls you’ve touched with your music ❤️ You are oh so missed by your millions of fans and your beautiful family. You’re now rocking with Jimi, Randy, Dio, and many more rock Gods. Thank you for your time on Earth and sharing your talent with us all.
We can all agree that 2020 is hell. RIP Eddie. 🙁
🤘🏻😔
I am so deeply saddened by this unfortunate news. Eddie the Rock Legend from my birth country. He was the ultimate Rock Guitarist the world has ever experienced. A true Legend. My heart goes out to his son and all the people close to him including all his fans. We are in mourning. RIP Eddie and thank you for all you have contributed to the music of Rock.
R.I.P. Eddie. I have listened to your music since 78.
yessssssss
His music will live forever. In my house at least.
2020 just keeps kicking us while where down😥
May he rest in peace.
The world loses one of the greatest guitarists of all time, but we’ll never forget what he has accomplished in the rock industry! R.I.P. Eddie! 🤘🏻😔
Top 5.
Of course not! It won’t be possible to forget, even if you tried.
The question is, who will play him in the first movie about his life?
This must be Trumps fault
He was a phenomenon.
@SED
Everything is Trump’s fault.
Eddie was my guitar hero as a young man. I met him when they were an unknown band playing small gigs. They played the Tarrant County Convention Center in my hometown of Ft. Worth, Texas. After the show band members mingled with the audience. I mentioned to Eddie I was an aspiring rock guitarist as well. To my delight he took me on stage and showed me a few licks to practice. How many massive talents are that gracious? I remember telling my buddies afterward that Van Halen was destined for greatness. One year later they were playing sold out arenas. I’ve never been in the presence of a more talented guitarist since. Rest In Peace, Eddie. And thanks for the guitar lesson, brother. I never forgot it. ❤❤❤
Wow! You are one lucky human being to have spent a moment in time with one of the greatest Rock Gods the world has ever known! RIP Eddie!
Thats a great story! 🙂👍👍
#respect 🤘🏻😔
Eddie Van Halen and Neil Peart, the best there’s ever been, in the same year. Heart breaking
dvdfrnzwbr agreed.
Cancer sucks
I can’t. It’s just….it sucks. It just sucks. #rockongreatones #bonhamtoo
Rest in peace Eddie Van Halen, you will never be forgotten.
Thank you for my beautiful Wolfgang!!!! I am so blessed too have one ✝️🙏☮️ Now you can RIP!!!!♥️🎶🎹🎸🎧😪😭☹️💟🐐
Thanks Eddie for all you gave us. It was more than we could have imagined. RIP
An absolute music genius that we will never see again. I only hope he didn’t suffer. My kids and I will forever bang our heads to his rock.
Sad. Note to self: don’t ever smoke.
