Meeting Eddie Van Halen in 1983 – Mark Litsky recalls the day he and Joe Holmes met EVH

hmhadmin's avatarHeavy Metal Hill

by Mark Litsky

“In 1983, Van Halen was written into the Guinness Book of World Records as the “highest paid band of all-time” for its 90 minute set headlining the US Festival. Additionally, the band’s guitarist, Eddie Van Halen – already internationally-known for “re-writing the rules of the electric guitar” – performed one of popular music’s most famous guitar solos on Michael Jackson’s 1983 #1 Billboard hit, Beat It. Each successive Van Halen album had charted higher than its predecessor – and, by 1983, Van Halen was arguably the most popular rock band in the world; however, during 1984 – with Van Halen’s album, 1984, the band achieved the pinnacle of its “commercial and critical success”.

This was an incredibly special show and it completely rocked. Technical difficulties had the show pushed back to almost 11:00, but they could have played all night.

There could have been an OZZY reunion at this show!

Everyone out front was talking about Ozzy being there at the show. Robert Trujillo was obviously there. Roy Mayorga was also there, and so was Joe Holmes, who has also Mass Mental’s monster drummer Ken Schalk and Robert featured on his new band Farmikos’ upcoming full release (coincidentally, Brooks Wackerman is also a Mass Mental member, former member of Infectious Grooves and contributor to the new Farmikos album as well, but he’s currently touring with Bad Religion – footage of Brooks, Robert and Armand from Guitar Center Drum Off 2011) .
