I watched a documentary about Quiet Riot(?) not too long ago, I guess all those guys kind of ran in the same circles. Anyway, it got to Steve Vai and his part in QR and kind of segued to his career.
They played a phone recording of Eddie where he angrily said, "I taught Steve Vai how to play guitar!"
OMG, the arrogance of that motherfucker. Hint- Eddie Van Halen DID NOT teach Steve Vai how to play guitar in any way shape or form. I doubt he even influenced him.
On second thought? Maybe it was the Rhandy Rhoads documentary? Idk, it was one of them. That's the only thing that really stuck from it if that tells you anything.
I like Van Halen, always have, it's pretty good music right up until 1984.
