Nice to hear you mention ShipRocked and THE WARNING. They're such wonderful people in addition to their songwriting/singing/playing talents. They just announced that they've got two new songs dropping next Friday 3/8/24.
Props to THE WARNING!! I am a guitar player because of this young man’s father. Period! Love Wolfie, and LOVE that he is aware of my favourite band of young ladies that are kicking ass and taking names! 👍🏼🤘🏼
Wolfgang & Nita are both awesome, and this was a great interview, especially when Nita talks about EVH. Equally as awesome is this comment section being dominated by The Warning Army. The Warning will dominate 2024.
Wow, did I hear that right? Eddie Van Halen's son, Wolfgang and the talented Nita Strauss saying that The Warning are "awesome" and "we love The Warning" when Steve Black, music journalist and radio host who was at Shiprocked, names and highlights them. A collaboration now. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I love these two’s personalities very cool peeps I love Nita’s set up where she doesn’t need a cord or big amps for a big sound I forget what she actually does but it’s genus all her gear can fit in a small box and blow the venue away with the sound she is so cool and so is Wolf keeping his dads legacy alive
Love this interview. The solo question I thought, was great. I've never been able to comp a solo. I spoke with my bandmates recently and stated that soloing was nerve-wracking to me. I always right my solos. An intro that builds into the majestic hero coming home. I can't and won't attempt to just noodle it out. Say something as strong as the lyrics or don't say anything at all, is my motto.
Wolfy is what we have left of the great EVH and in the most simplistic of explanations I see why we procreate to spread our dominant genes onward...love you Wolfy
Wolfgang said Eddie was the worst guitar teacher in the world because Eddie would get frustrated when he played something and Wolfgang wasn't able to play it back right away lol . Eddie thought whatever he did Wolfgang should be able to instantly do . That was hilarious when I found that out .
Steve is not used to a SM58 microphone ? his voice is so low compared to Nita and Wolfgang. I guess it must be hard not to have in ear monitoring to adjust where you place the mic
Dweezil was actually there when his Father met Wolf’s Father….Ed and Frank ….in fact it was through that meeting that inspired Edward to actually build the 5150 studio ….lovely interview. Thanks for this ..ps I had a crush on Val too but don’t say anything 😖🤫…lol
Did he say, youre both ridiculous level guitar players?!? Im tired of people kissing wolfs ass. He is overrated, and not a a ridiculous level guitar player, wtf lol.
Do everything on the albums. Write all of the songs and play all the instruments. Then when you tour you are the boss and the band is all hired musicians. Meaning you pay them well if you want to keep them and you pay yourself a WHOLE lot better. Upside don't have to share a a whole lot of the money. Downside, if you lose your ass your losing it alone and you still have to pay the band. I'm sure Wolfie knows that because he was taught that. He had predecessors that explained the business to him. Nita I'm sure has figured that out but she can't play it all. You can still hire studio musicians to make your album and if you have all the parts written out in the direction you want your still golden. If you ask them for advise or accept any contributions from them you may owe them some royalty rights.
I have much respect for a Wolfie look at the gene pool he came from the baddest guitar player that I've ever and one of the most beautiful women in the world he comes from The A-Team comes from The A-Team No Doubt
