I agree with you on that. Interestingly though, I read where EVH thinks he got his tongue cancer (which then spread to his esophagus) from holding metal guitar picks in his mouth over many, many years. He also claimed that his lungs were fine and cancer free so go figure. Regardless, smoking is bad news! Rest In Peace Eddie Van Halen.

Smokers will find ways to minimize the dangers and repercussions of their addiction/weakness.
Thanks for posting. I was lucky to be at both shows that they played this. Pure magic each time. I really love it when they play in Hartford, just pure fun every time.
For some of the younger generation who are not very familiar with Eddie's playing, here is a taste of his magical talent. He influenced the guitar world from 1978 to 2020.
The Van Halen logo was all over my Jr High school binders. I still remember the first time i saw the video for Jump at 12 years old. Became a fan immediately. Another legend gone.
