Get the Eddie Van Halen mug.Van Halen is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. The main line-up consisted of Eddie and Alex Van Halen on guitar and drums and Michael Anthony on bass. They started out with David Lee Roth as singer then Sammy Hagar, then Gary Cherone, Hagar again and now back to Roth. Anthony left and Eddie's son Wolfgang Van Halen is the bassist. They have had a lot of great songs like Jump, Hot for Teacher, When It's Love, Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love, Right Now, Dance the Night Away, and of course the greatest solo of alltime, ERUPTION! There are many people who think that when Hagar replaced Roth that they became terrible and that "Van Hagar" was never as good as the Roth years. I say suck it. Both singers were really good. They brought the band to places they wouldn't be before. Hagar gave them four #1 albums. Don't say he's not good. I personally like Roth better but they were both great. Besides, would you rather have had the 10 years with Hagar or 10 years with Gary Cherone? Didn't think so.

Get the halen mug.The band to which all rock guitar solos must be compared, and the band of the cosmos in Back to the Future. Just listen to Eruption and you'll see why.

Get the Van Halen mug.By far the greatest guitarist who ever lived. The man invented shredding, and the greatest guitar solo ever Eruption.He is also the most original and innovative guitarist ever, the best musician of the past 2 centuries. Eddie, Alex, Dave, and Michael are the greatest band to ever walk the earth, Van Halen

Get the Eddie Van Halen mug.Halen is a rare guy who is SUPER intelligent. He seems weird but he is actually a great guy who may not seem attractive, but has a really big heart. He has a secret wild side that comes out when he is comfortable, and is really cool at the time. He would make a great addition to a team because his intelligence and skills in technology will make a team soar to the top. He would also make a great advisor(even better if he is a Virgo!) However, NEVER betray him or he can make your life a living hell. So, if you find a Halen, keep him by your side, because he will be the bestest friend you can have.
