Tom Broderick met Eddie Van Halen in 1968 through his Brother Rob and 10 years later would join Van Halen on their first World Tour. Starting in the mid 1970’s he would be part of their road crew and eventually the Front of House Mixer in The Club Days and for the early part of the 1978 Tour. Tom’s experiences with Van Halen are very personal and deep.

Just for the record (as Tom’s older brother) I met Ed in the 6th grade (Jefferson Elementary) I saw this new kid (Ed) playing Wipe Out with his hands on the lunch benches. I said who is this dude? Later that day I saw the same kid folding his newspapers as we got ready to do our paper routes. That’s how I met Ed. 👍

In early 1979 van Halen was rehearsing in Anaheim CA ( near the avio dutch club on katella ave in Anaheim CA). I lived in the town over the 57 frwy- bridge ( placentia CA). I was riding my skateboard down that bridge when I heard drums, I followed the sound to the end of the bridge to some warehouse they were rehearsing in. As I peeked in , Eddie was walking up to the door. He asked if I wanted to come in to watch. I was lucky enough to be able to come back for a few more days while they were there. This is right before van Halen 2.

Big-time "Wow! 🤯" at 14:30 -- an eyewitness to Edward melting pickup wax & boiling his strings!

Cool right!!

@RodKing-br3gf 4 месяца назад

Did Eddie Vanhalen used to boil his new guitar strings?

@sambekins 2 месяца назад

Eddie didn't boil new strings! The main reason people boil strings is to clean out the grime and dead skin cells! @RodKing-br3gf

A great interview! I wonder if Tom had any Jose amp stories, maybe for a Part 2.

That 26" bass drum that Tom speaks of has to be for the Ludwig silver sparkle kit Alex got in 1970. That kit should be displayed in the U.S.A. .....it's a National Treasure. He bought that kit in 1970 and used it all through the club days up until the VH 2 tour in 1979. But the kit is in a Hard Rock in Europe somewhere.....it needs to be here.......at home.

@@FinalResonanceTV please jeff keep them coming i watch every interview about the days before they got big and the van halen boys growing up with nothing and becoming successful my first show was 1983 in the spectrum i was on the side of the stage Valerie was pouring eddie beers in between songs and the crowd was chanting her name until she gave us the finger we all applauded and she bowed to the crowd i was 15 it changed my life i was the youngest kid in the arena

I've been to their house on Las Lunas a handful of times. Once I peeked in! (Really not something one should do!) Tiny little place. I drove around to the back alley and saw the backyard and separate garage. It was chain link fence but now they've put up a actual fence. If Ed played as loud as he said he did the neighbors in those little houses around them must have gone nuts!

The blue van must have been the van that Rodney Bingenheimer was talking about. He was asked what he remembered about Van Halen club days. He said Van Halen was always having band meetings in a Van im the parking lot

what about those chords Tommy😂??? ..or something like that...in those early VH rehearsal audio tapes. Thnks for sharing your story, Sir.

@MarshallAmpMan 4 месяца назад

not to bust your bubble FR, but back in the very early '70's we all boiled our strings, back in the Chicago suburbs we all boiled strings and routed strats and tele's to add hum bucking pickups. I am talking 1971 or so.

@bobc.5698 4 месяца назад

You should find Greg Emmerson...Alex's teenage friend and drum tech up until 1985 i think. That would be cool.

@FinalResonanceTV 4 месяца назад

Unfortunately Greg passed away. The remaining members of the original gang is definitely on my list!

@bobc.5698 4 месяца назад

@FinalResonanceTV Wow...I didn't know. Sad to hear that.
