Way back in the 80s, my girlfriend at the time had a picture that was pretty cool....I should have taken a picture of it...lol

Her brother was in LA....he goes to a party at a sand/gravel pit.....Eddie shows up in his Porsche 911....he got a picture of Eddie resting his beer on top of his 911 at this pit party....

That all I got.
 
Gibson probably created these with AI
lol , they’re all in his book that came out a few years ago

They must be having a hard time selling $26K LP's to spotlight Ed w/a Charvel.

yah life handed her some uncomfortable lessons. anyway she grew up with my sister in law and invited her to a party in Big Bear at the height of her stardom. sis takes her hubby and they notice Val Bertinelli who was a major celeb at the time and they get all star struck.
bro goes to get a beer at the keg and starts up a convo with some long hair dude who seems pretty cool. they pound several cold ones then start throwing a frisbee in the massive back yard and do all those jumping catch between the legs goofy drunk crap people do with frisbees.
sis comes over to chat and my bro notices a shiny necklace on frisbee boy and asks him about it. says it’s his initials and the emblem of his band: VH.
val walks up and gives Eddie a kiss and bro and sis have the “AHA” moment.
 
I wish I had a cool rock and roll story. All of my cool stories involve Tupac or NFL players. I got so excited when I met Kevin Greene from the Steelers, that i lifted a table while getting an autograph on my jersey and nearly dumped a drink on his wife's lap.
 


I have most of those? The ones 'stolen' by Noel Monk are posted on FB Exclusively Van Halen page by Noel's daughter.

And yes, there have been a TON of AI created EVH pics that look so real, you can hardly tell. There are also a bunch that have been doctored or 'refreshed'.

But thanks nonetheless. Funny how Gibson posted this though.

My aunt has a badass photo she took of Dave and Ed from the front row of a VH concert that must have been from the first album tour; Ed is playing the star with the Dano headstock if I remember right


I need to borrow it from her and scan it one day
