EDDIE’S fingers aren’t fingers they are muscle-powered pistons that hammer guitar strings to the fretboard with the force of a rivet gun”.

Is it just me, or does 5150 look a little dumpy? I know they’ve been on tour, but it kinda seems like they could’ve at least tidied up the inside a little bit for CNN. Crazy to see clip-on construction lights in the tape “vault”. I wonder if Ed’s doing some renovating and that’s why it’s a mess?

I’m waiting for Ron or somebody to go thru the footage frame-by-frame to read the labels on all those tape boxes. I did notice Won’t Get Fooled Again on one of them.

That was nice! It was cool to see the tape vault. Makes you wonder what’s there.

How sweet would it be to be the one who gets to go through all those old tapes.

I would make it my full time job for free, just to sit and listen, and say yep that’s good, nope not so great.

How cool would that be?


The poor folks play for keeps down here…They’re the living dead. Nobody rules these streets at night like Van Halen!!

Cool piece.. I think the clip on lights were just for taping this segment.


Resident dickhead. I will hurt your delicate feelings.

Guitar World, July 1988, in the first paragraph of Eddies interview, the interviewer mentions all the dust and smoke butts laying all over the floor and equipment. Thats, apparently how Ed likes it in there… I guess things haven’t changed.

That was an awesome clip. Its a shame its only 4 minutes long though…. 30 minutes would of been cool.

When you turn on your stereo, does it return the favor?

I had goose bumps when they walked into the tape vault. I’m not joking.

Just watched this video (last night). Lots of interesting text on the boxes in there. The box that Wolfie puts back on the shelf is talked about in his Aug 2012 GW magazine interview.

That shot also contains a lot of Balance era stuff. Man on a Mission, Amsterdam, Seventh Seal, Big Fat Money, Not Enough.

Before that closeup, you can see a bunch of boxes labeled Rich Wyman.

I stopped that video and took it frame by frame as much as I could just to try and possibly read everything written on the spines of the boxes.
