Van Halen in 1981 was my first concert. I'm not a giant fan anymore but Eddie sure left his mark in the guitar world and those early records with the original lineup are pretty great.
Thanks, Mr. Brian. My brother and I are trying to figure out if and when we saw VH. I wasn't a big fan (but I love "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love"), but my brother is a guitar geek and one of my friends in high school had a huge crush on DLR.
