Van Halen - Live on TV - 2015 - 9 Songs! 

Don’t cry because he’s gone, Smile because he was here. And we were fortunate enough to witness it

Eddie has inspired more people to pick up a guitar than anyone else...period. Including me in 1986. What a gift. Thanks for your time Eddie. See ya around.

Eddie could STILL reproduce the SAME,EXACT sound for decades !!!! rock solid

The world lost one of the Greatest Rock guitarist of all time yesterday. How that man could make a guitar sing like he did was just on another level. A true musician. In 1978 when I was just 16 years old and playing drums in a garage band here comes VH. I was hooked. Been following them since. It's been a rough year. First arguably the best rock drummer of all time Neil Peart leaves us and know Eddie too. Very sad. Rest in peace Eddie.

I feel so very fortune to be old enough to see VH live in concert in their prime - 1980-1984. Truly a game changer

R.I.P. Eddie “the Greatest”

Eddie could play that guitar making noises uncommon. The guy was an absolute freak of nature. In the best possible way. RIP Eddie. You were 1 of 1

you have to enjoy this man¡¡¡ even if dave 's voice isn't particulary good on those shows, but man...the music is amazing

I distinctly remember the first time I heard VH on 96Rock in Atlanta in the 1970’s. I was absolutely blown away along with everyone else. I’m 63 now and it still gives me the spinal shivers.

Gives me goosebumps!!! I love EVH!!😊❤

Absolutely awesome from the 80s

how to be an idiot in 3 steps: 1- buy a ticket to a live concert of an awesome band 2- do not move and stay frozen the whole show 3- watch the entire live show through ypur cell phone screen

This man really speed running eruption 😂 My GOAT.

Hot for teacher is so great!!!!!!

It seems like Dave can still sing well, but he just won't.. Eddie's fingers forgot that they're 35yrs older and decided to play just as awesome as they always did.

van Halen rules......oh yeahhh baby.....

I didn’t miss Dave when he was gone. Please bring back Sammy.

What a freak of nature

The same awesome diamond Dave just older!!! But still awesome

Diamond Dave is awesome to this day in 2024 and always awesome

I can’t believe it....this show was only 5 years ago, Eddie looked very happy and playing so well. A devastating loss.....R.I.P dear Eddie, our guitar hero.

At 53 years old i pulled to side of road and cried when i heard Eddie passed away. Of course i didnt know him but van halen music has meant so much to me over the years. God bless you Eddie. Thanks for the music and the memories.

Roth is acting as a front man and part time tourist guide

Only 5 years ago he was still kicking ass. Cancer sucks.

I don't think I have ever seen Eddie enjoy himself more..... just an outstanding performance. My God what a talent!

Eddie never had a mean face while ripping a solo... Always a huge smile on his face! The man loved what he was doing and so do we! Rock in peace sir! ❤️❤️😭🤘🤘

Eddie Van Halen was Mozart on a guitar.

Before posting "Dave is crap now" comments, I want you to bear something in mind, right before/at the start of the show Dave was "baton twirling" the top half of a mic stand, and that is an open/hollow piece of pipe in that state, and caught himself right on the bridge of his nose, splitting it open to the bone. He had a roady superglue the wound and strap it with a fabric band aid and got on with it, it being a live show with millions viewing on tv and the internet because in his mind the fans came before any amount of pain he was in, he was in ER right after the show and needed several surgeries after the fact to fix the injury properly, A singer can not sing correctly with a cold let alone an injury of this severity but he just did it anyway. K got that? good carry on.

The people at Rolling Store who voted seven other guitars ahead of this man should never be allowed to work again!! RIP EVH!

watching Eddie looking over at his son with the biggest smile on his face is all you need to see...RIP

My buddy and I went to this, tickets were free and we stood in line for 7 hours in the LA sun. Seeing the mighty Van Halen was something I’ll never forget. RIP Edward, thank you for the timeless music😊

RIP EVH. Wolfie must have had a ball to be on stage with his dad and uncle.

Eddie made it look so easy. Hands were barely moving yet the sound was flying a million miles an hour. Incredible dexterity, intensity, clarity, phrasing. And most of all, groove. Wrote all the music, played both lead and rhythm, and sang backup. Effortlessly. One of the all time greats, if not *the greatest* of all time. He will be studied and copied for generations, but never duplicated. Thank you Ed. RIP

Never saw EVH play without a giant smile on his face. GOAT

The one thing I loved about Eddie was that he always smiled while playing these great tunes, you could tell he enjoyed what he was doing. Miss you Eddie!!

Alex Van Halen is one of the most underrated drummers ever. Just stays right in there ton "o" bricks

it pisses me off how you see everyone in the crowd just holding their phones up filming a damn concert that's being recorded instead of just enjoying seeing van freaking halen live

Rest in peace Eddie, you were up there with the best of them.

Without EVH or Steve Vai Roth wouldn't have been as successful

Eddie just looks like he's having a good time with his son :D

Its hard to believe this was 5 years ago and Eddie is just killing it. And we no longer have him. Sad times

imagine your dad and uncle are van halen? thats unreal

ANYBODY WHO DIDN'T GROW UP IN THE 80s with video game arcades in 7-11, Slurpees and VAN HALEN missed out

RIP Eddie can not stop crying

This crowd doesn't deserve to be here. I don't think they even realize what they are witnessing.

no words can explain how good he was, a legend for all time.

For years and years everyone was crying how they wanted David Lee Roth back in the band, and when he came back he single handedly ruined every single song by singing out of tune and out of time, with the wrong phrasing, and forgetting lyrics. Someone doing karaoke could've done way better. At least the rest of the band sounded killer.

I was at this show in the front. I can see myself in a few shots. I had my car towed that night from where I parked. Cost me $500 to get it back. Worth it.

I'm so glad that Eddie was able to turn his life around before he died. So glad it wasn't an overdose that killed him but got to see his son grow and tour with him.

For 37 min, there wasn’t one time Eddie wasn’t smiling. Pure gold! Rip King

You can say what you want about David Lee Roth but he sure puts on a great show. They all need each other. So glad they all got together even it was for a short while. What a fantastic band.

I can't believe that in my 71 years of all the rock in the world from Elvis to today that I would be crying listening to hard guitar rock, but here it is. You always expect your music heroes (especially my guitar gods) to live forever, but EVH's passing hit me hard and by surprise. These takes are incredible and Roth notwithstanding, are the most amazing, untarnished live performances from one of the best bands ever and, to me, the greatest guitarist I have ever seen and heard. RIP, my musical hero. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Eddie looking and sounding better than ever. Hard to believe he only had 5 more years :(

Damn...Eddie looked pretty dang healthy and happy here. To think just a little over 5 years from this performance and he's gone. RIP Ed.

Been listening to Van Halen all night after hearing the news today of his passing! Thank you EVH for your amazing music! It feels so weird writing this.Can't believe it!

Of course I feel sad watching this video, but I also can't help but enjoy Eddie's lovely smile the entire time he is playing. RIP Eddie

Eddie was on fire during this time. Band sounds killer.

Wolfgang actually does a great job, Eddie and Alex are top class, but I prefer not to talk about Dave.

Eddie and Alex look and sound great, Roth is a nightmare and Wolfie has to go...Hagar and Michael Anthony please

What's even scarier he doesn't even look when he's playing Absolutely amazing

Eddie's guitar tone and of course his playing are both phenomenal, just spectacular, the most important Rock guitarist since Hendrix.

I'll say again Alex is extremely extremely talented amazing drummer that doesn't get the applause he deserves

I could just watch Eddie play all day. So joyful and effortless in his playing, but what he's doing is amazing even to this day. RIP, Eddie. Thank you for bringing joy and inspiration to my life through your incredible talent and music. You made a huge mark on the music world, and we are all grateful.

not sure the audience know they are witnessing pure genius. Much more laid back performance than the old days of course, but musically absolutely awesome.

DLR has become a tall Joe Pesci. Eddie looks like in peace with himself and his legacy.

This is what a band sounds like that grew up in the club trenches and worked their way up... Van Halen still sits in every infused note in 2015... RIP Eddie Van Halen - love to you and your family and every inspired performance you gave us while in this world... A truly down to earth person full of heart...

There’s few names as synonymous with “guitar” as “Eddie Van Halen.” I’m watching this video right now being reminded that we were watching a real legend in action. And what a treat it must’ve been for him to be able to play with his son on stage later in his life. Thanks for leaving behind all this great music EVH

Six hours waiting on Hollywood Blvd for this concert. David was such a pro, continuing even though he smacked his nose with the mic stand. Eddie did an awesome solo while David was getting it fixed up. That was a great night.

We talk about "privilege" in society now. Well I'm happy that I had the "Privilege" to be alive to hear the greatest musician ever.

Dave knows he sounds like shit and still can't get that smile off his face. What a wild man. Seen them in the 80s. Eddie is the fkn man still!!! Not so much Dave

He gave is great music and equipment. He will still be talked about in 200 years the same way people know Beethoven, Mozart, etc. now.

Just miss Michael Anthonys back up vocals .

God Eddie sounded flawless as good as he has ever been, we have lost a true legend

I love the fact that Eddie is happy, clean, sober and healthy here. Great hair, Great goatee, Great physicality, cool, simple clothes. He was perfect here. Absolutely perfect. Focused and on point with his guitar and with his only son Wolfgang in stage with him. Too bad cancer came back and destroyed all of that and him.

I don’t know why people gave wolf so much shit. His bass playing is solid and his backing vox are good

I like how Dave is just having fun and there is no tension. Great attitude

Wow, EVH looks like he's got a good 30 years left in him here...RIP

All of that pain Eddie was feeling and he never stopped smiling! That’s so amazing! He still went out and just crushed it!

It's a big proof that Michael Anthony's vocal was a big part of every Van Halen songs.

No one can replace Eddie. So sad that we will never see Van Halen again.

EVH was always smiling on stage. That's how I will remember him.

Eddie's riffs carried this band through the decades. RIP Mister Van Halen!

He just kept getting better. And his sound just kept getting better. Watching him, listening to him all those years, getting to know him through his God given talent, it's honestly like losing a family member. He's a true guitar hero and innovator. No doubt the best we'll ever see. RIP Eddie

Eddie plays like it's effortless - and he's just happy as a kid to be playing. And Wolfie does Eddie proud on that bass!

Eddie got better with age 😭. He wasn't done yet. To think he was mending his relationship with Sammy and Michael. Soooo sad.

Eddy was still playing at top form. RIP Eddy.

Give Dave some credit, right at the start of the show he busted his nose with the microphone and he didn’t punk out , he finished what he started cause that’s what artists do to entertain their fans.

I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.

Eddie still makes it look stupidly easy. Long live the king!

Dave was a trouper “the show must go on” Ed looks and sounds in fine form - nice legacy piece - sad he’s gone

You can tell he's so happy to have Wolfie up there with him.

Eddie absolutely killed this set. He was a one in a billion talent.

Eddie sounds just like he did in the records, a genius that will never be forgotten.

These dudes from the '80s blow ANY rock bands today away. Simple truth.

Dave was SO much better when he had an edgy sneer instead of a grinning "can I sell you a car" game-show host vibe.
