On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen on Johnny Beane TV, we're diving into all things Mammoth WVH!
In this episode of My Rock Moment, I sit down with veteran music journalist Steven Rosen — author of Tonechaser: Understanding Edward: My 26-Year Journey with Edward Van Halen — to uncover the untold story of the man behind the legend: Eddie Van Halen. For more than two decades, Rosen wasn't just a journalist covering Van Halen, he was a close friend, confidant, and witness to the creative fire that reshaped rock guitar. We revisit that very first night at The Whisky a Go Go, where their friendship began, and talk about the moment Rosen was invited to hear an early cut of Van Halen's second album — long before the world had any idea what was coming. Steven shares an intimate look at Eddie's humility, his complex relationship with David Lee Roth, and the moments that defined both the man and the music. Whether you're a lifelong fan, a guitarist chasing tone, or someone simply curious about the soul behind the sound, this episode peels back the myth to reveal the man.

Under namnet Mammoth gör Wolfgang Van Halen maffig grungerock. Som musiker har han fått vänja sig vid att verka i sin fars skugga. Eddie Van Halen var en av rockhistoriens främsta gitarrister och rekryterade 2006 sin då 15-årige son som basist till det återförenade Van Halen. Vissa fans rasade mot att Eddie Van Halens son tog originalbasisten Michael Anthonys plats. Andra gladde sig åt att det var Wolfgang som lyckades få sångaren David Lee Roth att återvända. Wolfgang mår fortfarande dåligt över hatstormen som riktades mot honom och undviker att göra Van Halen-covers. Hemma hos Strage pratar han om sin oro över att inte räcka till, om att vara introvert, om att hjälpa sin far att bli nykter, om när David Lee Roth råkade nita sig själv med mikrofonstativet och om nya albumet "The end" vars titelspår fått en blodig varulvsvideo regisserad av Robert Rodriguez.

What can you say about the great Thomas Dolby that hasn't already been said? We know about the hits (like "Science" and "Hyperactive"), we know about the innovation and the tech businesses he's started, and we know about Live Aid. In this conversation we set out to fill in some of the gaps like how did he get Jerry Garcia and Eddie Van Halen to play guitar with him? Did he ever meet Prince, who he is so similar to creatively? We know Howard the Duck didn't work, but what about his incredible soundtrack? What happened when he produced Joni Mitchell? It might be a slightly different conversation than you're used to. All of this is to promote his North American tour which kicks off on the east coast this week. Hope you enjoy hearing from the master! ThomasDolby.com The Hustle Podcast | creating podcasts | Patreon

David Ellefson and his Kings of Thrash are making three stops in Michigan. October 23rd at the Venue Events Center in Cadillac, MI., followed by a stop at the Machine Shop in Flint the next day, then The Token Lounge on the 25th.We obviously had to discuss the passing of Ace Frehley. As many know, David is a huge KISS fan. He spoke about some memories he had with the Spaceman over the years. Ironically enough, he has never been to Cadillac, which just celebrated the 50th anniversary of the visit from KISS in 1975."Ace Frehley's passing was on the level of Eddie Van Halen's passing. I mean, different players, but they made us want to be musicians." David said. "Not only musicians, but rockstars!" Isn't that the truth?He said he didn't know Ace that well, but well enough. "You know, so Ace and I became friends, not close friends. I mean, we have each other's cell phone. I'd usually text him every year for his birthday. And me and Frank Bello would text him because he played a solo on our Altitudes and Attitude record."David speaks to the tour, the numerous gigs he has coming up, including the Monsters of Rock Cruise, where he'll play with Jeff Scott Soto, and tons more!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Wolfgang Van Halen on A Different Kind of Truth: “The Fact That It Happened at All Is a Miracle” In a recent interview with Paul Cashmere of Noise11.com, Wolfgang Van Halen reflected on his role in creating A Different Kind of Truth — the final Van Halen album and the band's first full-length studio release since 1998. Wolfgang, who joined Van Halen at just 15 years old, played alongside his father Eddie Van Halen from 2006 until the band's final tour in 2015. He recalled how the 2012 album came together from the ground up: “It just felt like the right time for Van Halen to release new music,” Wolfgang said. “We'd toured, and the next logical step was to record something. Some of the demos started as early as 2009 — it took years. The fact that the record even happened is kind of a miracle.” According to Wolfgang, many of the songs were based on unfinished demos from the 1970s, which he discovered and helped bring to life. “A lot of those ideas were from the band's early days,” he explained. “It was a great way to get everyone back into that old creative mindset. It was fun — a lot of work, but I'm really proud of what we did.” Streaming Drama and Band Tensions The album made headlines again in June 2024 when it finally returned to streaming platforms after nearly two years of being unavailable. In a 2023 interview with Eddie Trunk, Wolfgang revealed the delay stemmed from internal disagreements: “Some people involved with the record don't like it,” Wolfgang admitted. “We've been trying to get it back up, but it's not easy. Let's just say those people were part of the record.” When Trunk asked if the person “with three initials” — a clear reference to David Lee Roth — was the issue, Wolfgang simply replied, “Probably.” Shortly after, Roth responded with a tongue-in-cheek YouTube video titled “Family Therapy.” In the skit, he mocked Wolfgang's frustrations about the album's streaming issues, even comparing A Different Kind of Truth to Muhammad Ali's late-career fights, suggesting it wasn't one of the band's finer moments. Wolfgang on Roth, the Band, and His Father's Legacy Over the years, Wolfgang has spoken candidly about his limited relationship with Roth: “We were cordial, but it was very business-related,” he told Rolling Stone. “We were always cool, but we only really saw each other onstage.” In later interviews, Wolfgang also hinted that Roth's difficult personality was a major reason why a proposed Eddie Van Halen tribute concert never materialized: “Some people made it really hard to get anything done when it came to Van Halen,” he said. “The fact that we managed to do three tours, release an album of new material, and a live record — that's a miracle in itself.” Wolfgang also set the record straight on how Van Halen operated behind the scenes: “People love to pin everything on Dad, but Al [Alex Van Halen] was the brain,” he explained. “Dad just wanted to play guitar. The Van Halen philosophy was always: if nothing's happening, there's nothing to talk about.” Eddie Van Halen passed away in October 2020 at age 65, surrounded by family and friends. With the band inactive since its 2015 U.S. tour, A Different Kind of Truth remains a rare and powerful final chapter in Van Halen's legendary story — and, as Wolfgang says, “a miracle that it even happened at all.” #ExclusivelyVanHalen #VanHalen #WolfgangVanHalen #EddieVanHalen #DavidLeeRoth #ADifferentKindOfTruth #VanHalenFans #VanHalenFamily #RockHistory #RockLegends #ClassicRock #GuitarGod #5150time #VanHalenNation #RockInterview #MusicNews #HardRock #VanHalenLive #SammyHagar #JohnnyBeaneTV

Saturday, 11 October 2025 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: “I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world.” Matthew 13:35 “So it should be fulfilled, the ‘having been spoken through the prophet,' saying, ‘I will open My mouth in parables. I will blurt things having been concealed from foundation – world'” (CG). In the previous verse, Matthew noted that it was Jesus' habit to speak to the multitude in parables, and when doing so, not speaking to them any other way. He now explains why by citing Scripture. That is introduced with the words, “So it should be fulfilled.” In other words, and as has been seen before, Matthew is stating that some portion of Scripture is fulfilled by Jesus' actions. In this case, it refers to His conduct in relation to addressing the crowds. What is fulfilled is “the ‘having been spoken through the prophet.'” Matthew explicitly notes that words spoken by a prophet are fulfilled by what Jesus is doing. Saying “the prophet” indicates that it was a recognized prophet of Israel whose words are recorded in Scripture. The prophet being referred to in this instance is Asaph, whose words are recorded in Psalm 78 – “I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings of old, 3 Which we have heard and known, And our fathers have told us.” Psalm 78:2, 3 Knowing where the thought came from, Matthew continues, “saying, ‘I will open My mouth in parables.'” The Hebrew reads, “in parable.” The Greek converts that to the plural, which is then used by Matthew. This sets the tone for how Jesus dealt with the people. As for what that is, Matthew next says, “I will blurt things having been concealed from foundation – world.” Two new words are seen here. The first is ereugomai, to belch. It is found only here. It is used figuratively to indicate speaking out. A word that ties the sense of both thoughts together is blurt. It is a sudden, abrupt, and poignant mode of speech. The second new word is katabolé, a deposition. Thus, when referring to the beginning of the earth, it speaks of its foundation. There are several ways of taking Matthew's thought so that it aligns with the intent of the psalm because the words are not a direct citation. Thus, rather than a quote, a thought is being presented. The likely meaning is derived from the change of speaking “in parable” to “in parables.” In other words, Asaph spoke in a parable concerning the history of Israel. The psalm is a long recounting of events that occurred. However, the words are then to be considered in a parabolic fashion, having an underlying meaning in addition to the historical references. The Greek converted the singular to plural. Matthew saw this as an inspired change, pointing to the teaching style of the Messiah. In just the manner that Asaph recorded Israel's history, so Jesus taught the people, reflecting the same type of literary teaching device. When He opened His mouth, it would be in parables. And in His use of parables, He would blurt out things that had never been heard before, having been concealed in the wisdom of God from eternity past. Life application: There are times when people get anxious about saying, “Well, Peter said,” or “John says in His epistle.” The thought is, “If this is the word of God, we should say something like, ‘the Lord said,' or ‘the Lord through John said.'” This is unnecessary. There are abundant times in the New Testament where the words of Scripture are attributed to individuals rather than God. For example, Jesus refers to Moses having commanded something. This is followed in the words of the apostles. The same is true with other names like David and Isaiah. The reason why this is acceptable is that these people really said or wrote those things, doing so in harmony with the will of the Lord. If a musician like Eddie Van Halen played a tune from Bach, we might say that was an amazing piece Eddie played. At the same time, we could say, I heard a song by Bach today, and it was incredible. There is a harmonious synergy between the author and the player. This is how Scripture works. When we read Jeremiah, we can see his personal style, choice of words, etc. And yet, we can also know that the hand of divine inspiration was upon him in prophetic utterances, determined proclamations, etc. There is nothing wrong and everything right about saying it either way, meaning “The Lord said,” or “Jeremiah said.” When we believe in the process of inspiration, we are upholding the value of the word by stating things in this way. Notice how Jesus holds carefully to this process as He explains it to the leaders of Israel – “Jesus answered them, ‘Has it not been written in your Law: “I said, you are gods'?” 35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be nullified), 36 are you saying of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,' because I said, ‘I am the Son of God'?” John 10:34-36 (NASB) Lord God, help us in our understanding of Your word. Open our eyes so that when we read it, we can comprehend it in ways we may not have previously considered. There is so much depth and richness to it, and we want to understand and experience it all. So help us in this, O God. Amen.

Dweezil Zappa was born on September 5, 1969, in Los Angeles, California, the son of legendary musician and composer Frank Zappa and Gail Zappa. Growing up in one of the most creatively charged households in rock history, Dweezil was surrounded by instruments, recording sessions, and a constant stream of innovative artists visiting the family home. Naturally drawn to music, he began playing guitar at a young age, inspired by players like Eddie Van Halen, who would later mentor him. By the time he was 12, Dweezil released his first single, “My Mother Is a Space Cadet,” with Eddie Van Halen producing and playing on it—a remarkable start for such a young artist.Released in 1986 on Barking Pumpkin Records, Havin' a Bad Day was Dweezil Zappa's debut solo album and a bold introduction to his talent as both a guitarist and songwriter. Recorded largely at his father's famed UMRK (Utility Muffin Research Kitchen) studio, the album captures Dweezil as a teenager experimenting with hard rock, glam metal, and pop influences that defined much of the decade. Produced by Frank Zappa and Bob Stone, the record showcases slick 1980s production values while allowing Dweezil's guitar work to take center stage.The album features nine tracks, including the title song “Havin' a Bad Day,” “Blonde Hair, Brown Nose,” “Electric Hoedown,” and “I Want a Yacht.” The songs balance tongue-in-cheek humor and youthful energy, mirroring both his father's satirical edge and the flashy guitar-driven sound of the era. Musicians like Scott Thunes and Chad Wackerman—both members of Frank's touring bands—provided bass and drums, while other family members, including Moon Unit and Gail Zappa, contributed backing vocals, adding to the album's homegrown atmosphere.While Havin' a Bad Day didn't make major commercial waves, it served as an important artistic statement for a young guitarist stepping out from a legendary shadow. Critics noted Dweezil's technical skill and melodic instincts, though many recognized he was still finding his voice as a songwriter. Today, the album stands as a fascinating snapshot of his early years—part youthful exuberance, part serious musicianship—and the first step in a career that would see him evolve into one of rock's most respected modern guitarists.

Gunned down onstage by a delusional fan who thought his metal heroes had stolen lyrics from him, Dimebag Darrell Abbott blazed a savage new trail in hard rock during his short time on this earth. Weaned on Eddie Van Halen, Dimebag Darrell would wow the guitar gods he bowed down to as a teenager and gave metal a groove that the music had been lacking before Pantera made their first definitive statement, Cowboys from Hell. Though they made mean music, Darrell and his brother Vinnie were always accommodating and accessible to their fans, which may have been their fatal flaw.

Hit it, Slackers!On this week's episode, I'm debunking the myth that the best guitarists always deliver the greatest solos. Sure, virtuosos like Eddie Van Halen shred with jaw-dropping skill, but do their weedly-weedly-dee solos always elevate the song? Not necessarily! Sometimes, simpler is better—think melodic, tasteful, and hummable solos that truly serve the music.Is Eddie Van Halen a better guitarist than Mötley Crüe's Mick Mars? No question. But does he craft the best solos? Not always. Is Eric Clapton an all time great? Duh, but why does a guy named Mike Slamer have one of the best power ballad solos of all time?In my opinion technical prowess doesn't always trump soulful, song-driven solos. Expect a heavy dose of ‘80s classics, a nod to a ‘70s gem, and some early 2000s bangers.

Let Us Know What You Think of the Show!Date: September 17, 2025Name of podcast: Backstage Pass RadioS9: E6: Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal (Guns & Roses, Asia, Sons of Apollo, Art of Anarchy) - Guitar Wizardry UnleashedSHOW SUMMARY:Guitar virtuoso Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal takes us behind the curtain of his creative process, sharing the fascinating story of his latest instrumental album "Bumblefoot Returns" and the innovative techniques that have defined his distinctive sound. Released in January 2024, this album marks his first fully instrumental release since his 1995 debut and features collaborations with legendary musicians including Brian May of Queen, Steve Vai, and Guthrie Govan. The conversation delves deep into Bumblefoot's journey with the fretless guitar – an instrument he describes as "learning a different language" that transformed his approach to melody and expression. He reveals the origin of his signature metal thimble technique, which allows him to access notes beyond the traditional fretboard limitations. These innovations began when a 12-year-old Ron first heard Eddie Van Halen and realized "there are no limits to how you could make a string vibrate and make it speak." Beyond his musical innovations, Bumblefoot shares insights into the challenges facing touring musicians today, where merch sales and direct fan support have become essential for survival. He's found creative ways to make his album release an event rather than just another digital drop – offering vinyl with special artwork, CDs with fold-out posters, cassettes, transcription books with backing tracks, and even a free retro video game based on the album's artwork. The conversation takes unexpected turns as Bumblefoot discusses his award-winning hot sauce line, including the infamous "Bumblefucked" – once ranked the third hottest sauce in the world at 4-6 million Scoville units. He hints at plans for new hot sauce flavors named after songs from his album and a forthcoming comic book project that will bring the album's artwork to life in new ways. For aspiring musicians and longtime fans alike, Bumblefoot's passion for experimentation and artistic growth shines through every story. Whether he's discussing his upcoming performance at a festival in Jakarta or his role as a counselor at Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp, his enthusiasm for connecting with other musicians and fans remains as vibrant as his innovative playing style. Tune in for a master class in creative thinking from one of guitar's most original voices.Sponsor Link:WWW.ECOTRIC.COMWWW.SIGNAD.COMWWW.RUNWAYAUDIO.COMBackstage Pass Radio Social Media Handles:Facebook - @backstagepassradiopodcast @randyhulseymusicInstagram - @Backstagepassradio @randyhulseymusicTwitter - @backstagepassPC @rhulseymusicWebsite - backstagepassradio.com and randyhulsey.comArtist(s) Web PageWeb - www.bumblefoot.comCall to actionWe ask our listeners to like, share, and subscribe to the show and the artist's social media pages.

210 - John 5 In episode 210 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with guitarist John 5. In their conversation John tells us about his new album “Ghost” and his quest for learning and the guitar teachers that mentored him early on. John describes his parents support of his musical endeavors and how watching Hee Haw started his love for Fender telecaster guitars. John discusses his relationship with Ibanez and how that led to his relationship with Fender. John describes growing up in Michigan and how FM radio shaped his musical tastes. John tells us how folks from Warner Bros came to Michigan to woo his parents into letting him move to LA to start doing session work for them before he'd graduated high school. John walks us through the different bands he's played in: KD Lang, David Lee Roth, Rob Halford, Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie and he discusses his gear through each band and what he's using now and why he uses off the shelf gear. John describes how Buckethead influenced John's live show and tells us of his friendship with Buckethead and his love of Eddie Van Halen. John talks a bit about the Motley Crue residency in Las Vegas and his own solo tour with Ritchie Kotzen after that and John talks about a tour in 2026 playing 50 states in 50 days. Finally John describes his love of the horror genre.

On the 26th edition of First Concert Memories, we go back to 1986 to hear the story of one young rock fan's first ever Van Halen concert. Our Pantheon Podcasts brother Ilan Fong of What's Hot in the Strip Clubs was only 8 or 9 years old when he heard his older sister playing Van Halen I on her stereo. From that moment, his life was changed and was always curious about the music coming from the rooms of his older siblings. He'd wanted to see the 1984 tour but he was too young and his older brother told him because he'd just seen the Diver Down Tour, he would sit out 1984 and then take Ilan to the next one. The only problem there is the band broke up. David Lee Roth went solo and Van Halen famously replaced him with former Montrose singer Sammy Hagar. Hear how Ilan looked forward to finally seeing his guitar hero Eddie Van Halen perform his immortal solo live in Pittsburgh in August of 1986. We dissect the setlist (so few Dave era songs), discuss what Sammy was up to while the other guys did their solos, and where it ranked among all the Van Halen and David Lee Roth live shows. And as a bonus, he tells a story of intrigue with Guns N Roses as they returned to Montreal for the first time after the Axl Rose meltdown that led to a riot. A tale of strip clubs, drug dealers, and snowball fights that you'll definitely enjoy!
