So sorry to hear of Eddie Van Halen’s crossing over yesterday, October 6th. Sadly, Van Halen’s original bass player, Mark Stone just passed away as well on Sept 26th.

Eddie and the whole band have been a huge influence and inspiration to me and so many other musicians. On the cusp of the hard rock era, Eddie rewrote the book on playing the electric guitar and kicked down the door for all the amazing players to follow. Van Halen has sold over 75 million albums worldwide and have 13 No. 1 hits.

Millions of us can say that Van Halen music has bookmarked many of the good times in our lives. Eddie will rock on forever ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

So sad to hear of Mark Reale’s passing in 2012. There’s a great documentary about this band called ‘Riot – Fight or Fall’ you can watch for free on The Metal Voice YouTube channel.

Much thanks to Ben Harper and the whole crew at @takeover.

Much thanks to Ben Harper and the whole crew at @takeover.live for making our @werenogentlemen show Saturday such a great experience. For every minute we spend on stage, the crew has worked at least an hour in preparation. And thanks again to all of our misfits that watched us live. If you missed it, you can still get long-term access to our show for $2.99. We hope to do this again really soon. In the meantime, WNG is headed to the studio!

It’s been a minute since I last prepped for a live gig.

It’s been a minute since I last prepped for a live gig. I’m getting my “Sakura” bass polished and ready with fresh @curtmanganstrings to perform with @werenogentlemen tomorrow night from 8-10PM Pacific on Takeover Live. We’ll be doing an acoustic/storyteller set from 8-9p and then making it LOUD from 9-10p in typical WNG style.
