    How many here play?

    I"ve been to www.evh.com where alot of eddie fan guitarists seem to gather.

    Who here in the Army plays guitar? Let's have a pow-wow.

    I'm an old-school Eddie purist. I hate everything after 5150, and gave up on what I learned from 5150 to further pursue the old-school stuff. When other eddie fan-guitarist friends of mine were learning eddie's latest "licks" from the samhagar era and thinking they were cool i was thinking..."those idiots, that's not impressive, he already did the good stuff"
    I like Van Halen more than Dave's PA Rental.....which means I like Van Halen more than you

          Bassist here, so CVH is pretty much an open E string. Ocassionally we get a surprise but let's face it...CVH is about DLR with EdWad playing guitar.

                          I play mostly Ed's old stuff, well I try to.... Most of it sounds good, but I like to turn the distortion up a little, turn the gain down...I get a clean sound still, but with kick ass blast. Perfect example is ATBL. Easy intro right? Add distortion to it.... I like making the old VH sound a bit different. makes it sound fresh. Same with Unchained. I play it faster, with added Chorus. Give 'er a shot. Fuck a round a bit.

                          Best song to learn off 5150 is...5150. (Summer Nights is ok at best...)

                                      I would guess that at least 80% of male hard rock fans have tried to be musicians at one point or another predominately with a guitar.

                                      A lot seem to be keen for while when they find out how easy basic tapping is, then give up when they find out how hard everything else is and either play bass or stop.

                                      The rest are drummers...

                                          I play trombone, coronet, and accordion. So, if we ever do a big band/polka tribute, I'm in.

                                                  Good point though. I enjoy playing and learning as I go, but Im not sure if I'll ever be good enough to write music or creatively play past the CVH stage of the game. It helps to keep things fresh too.. upgrade your amps, add some effects buy a Slammer like I just did. I know, cheap by most standards, but compared to what I was playing on... Sheesh.

                                                      I can still play ATBL, RWTD, YRGM, DTNA, And the cradle will Rock, (Oh)Pretty Woman, Parts of Cathedral, Spanish Fly, and Eruption, 316, BOBW, Black and Blue and Crappo Wabo.

                                                      I don't really solo much anymore, I just "noodle." LOL!!!

                                                      I can still do the classic "Horsie" noise and his "elephant" though. I know a ton of Ed's tricks but I just don't have the time anymore.

                                                          Hahaha...

                                                          I'm back to playing daily, and I think, better than ever...

                                                          Sometimes to warm up, I will play along with Outta Love Again, but then it's on to my own material...

                                                          That song pumps me up when I jam to it cranked up...

                                                          Sometimes I play it as exact as I can, and other times I improvise over it...

                                                          Fun stuff...
