EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

PS-looks like he has added a real Floyd to his Wolfgangs?!?!?! I know he hated the cheaper copies Peavey had on the production models... Am i dreaming or is that a different bridge then a stock model?

Still probably able to blow just about any guitarist on the planet right off the stage though.

Based on the 2004 tour I would have to say probably not actually.

...keep smoking you idiot.
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

Actually, physicaly he doesn't look that bad... and the crazy smile was always there.. that's Ed... The smile did became more crazy then ever...

I sure hope we'd see him coming back for a new rock revolution... He might be the only living musician that can make playing the guitar popular again (the oposite of beating up the expensive guitar daddy bought you and saying you're nu-metal or post punk)

What I don't understand- I thought he quit smoking when he found out he has cancer...
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

I like that Eddie makes his own stuff, and keeps/tapes-up the stuff he buys and uses it forever.

.......but not when it comes to a 50 year old man wearing clothes in public, even in a progressive state like California.

There are some photos available from this jam (his girlfriend's flower shop) that actually make him look as healthy as he's been in the last 10 years.

Still, grow up bud, and wear a shirt. Try some new shoes too, and some jeans without gaping holes in them.

......and the playing in that particular clip is horrid.
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

I thought the playing wasn't bad compared to clips I've seen of the 2004 tour. What made the clip bad was the backing track...it sounded like a mix between a car horn and a moose.
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

Not just his clothes, but he looks like he has sores and stuff all over him. Rashes on his arms and knees, absesses on his feet...he looks like a falling down drunk transient.

I love EVH , he`s my fave but... There`s a lot of guitarist that could put him to shame right now. Having seen EVH(with VH) and Jeff Beck in concert over the last two years Jeff Beck would eat him alive.
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

That last clip of his playing is just terrible. What happened?

51501984, +1 on there being many others out now who could put him to shame.

Before or after he went downhill? I think in his prime he could smoke nearly everyone not with just technique, but with pure musical ability.

can anyone tell me why on earth he is smoking??!!!

Because he's addicted. Experts say tobaco is more addictive than opiates. I don't smoke (at least not first hand LOL) but people who do, have told me that quiting forever seems almost impossible. The craving never really goes away, even after years, and once they re-start it's stronger.

There's also a culture of smoking and drinking in rock-n-roll. If Ed's going to be active in music, he's going to be exposed, making it that much harder on him.

He might have an addictive personality. Many very creative people do.

I can't get the audio to stream, so I don't know if or how bad it is. Is it what he's playing, how he's playing, or both?
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

He needs to find Frodo and get his freaking ring back.





If anyone ever looked like Gollum, it's Ed.
 
Re: EVH: new 5150 amp and wah pix

Dude i used to smoke for 6 years and i have quit for around 5 years now. i can tell you that i dont even want to smell it. can stand it. I agree it is totally addictive. but he almost killed himself. what the heck is wrong with him?
It looks like he has no focus whatsoever. sad.
He is totally my hero though still of the guitar world. back in the day when he rocked of course.

Frodo? Ring? thats too funny dude!
