I heard it a few times on the radio today already. Going to see them in a few weeks for the hell of it. Same riffs... Same tone... It's Eddie the Eddie and Sammy show. Same shit... Different Pile.
I think any new material from EVH is a-ok. The man is my hero and the reason I play and I won't try and compare this song to anything on VHI or any other L.P. - what would be the point? Sounds to me like the boys still have it going on and I can't wait to see them on July 3 in Toronto.
As for Eddie's appearance in that photo...chemo, oxycontin and a bottle of hooch can give anyone that old geezer look - I can send you my mirror if you don't believe me. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Shit Oxycontin , Vicodin , Soma , Zanax , and lots o' weed is my daily diet and I look like a picture of health..compared to Ed.
but I don't have cancer ...that may be the problem ....cancer and lots of booze.. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]
Poor Ed!

I liked the song. Doesn't matter to me what anyone else thinks, Ed is still the fucking man in my book. He could fart into his pickups and I would still buy the album. Of course he would probably find a way to whammy-tap-fart that would make everyone's jaws drop. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
I must hear this song ...I'll download it for twenty minutes later tonight... I can't comment on it till I hear it ...but like I said if it weren't for EVH I wouldn't be talking to you guys right now on a guitar forum ...
so I must give the man the props he deserves
yes other players have picked up the ball and ran with it ....but it was his ball.
I'm sorry that he is so self destructive ...that's why his woman left him ...it's like he don't care .
He get's half his tongue removed from cancer and still smokes like a chimney and he has / had a family ...WTF???!!!

When did he become 100 years old?
I know he had some form of mouth or throat cancer didn't he? and he reeeaaallly liked to party but shit I'm gonna be 60 in 4 years (I know scary aint it!!) and I look better than that! and he has to be at least 20 years younger than I am.
OH and I'll probably get flamed for this but I didn't like "it's about time" it sounded like he was trying to incorporate the downtuned sound into his style and be current. For all his skill and dexterity I would like to see him push the envelope a little more.
