Love is a fucking jam.
When was the last time you listened to it?
This year?
In nothing?
It's not that.
Well, okay, so part of the thing is, is that do you play an instrument?
When you play an instrument... Yeah, that is a problem.
Yeah, I don't play anything.
You know, the thing about Eddie Van Halen is that he accepted the geometry of the neck of the guitar.
And very often you see musicians say, I don't care what key it's in.
I can figure out how to do anything.
Eddie Van Halen didn't do that.
He said, look, there's certain things that this thing makes possible.
And I'm going to accept the limitations of the instrument and figure out how to push it in all sorts of ways.
Another quote of his that I just love is this thing about if it doesn't cry, weep, moan, I don't care.
He wanted all of those noises and figuring out how to get those noises, figuring out how to make the guitar into more.
This is a thing that obsesses people like Jeff Beck or Roy Buchanan or Eddie Van Halen, where they're just, they're in some other space where it's no longer an instrument the way you and I see it.
You know, I've never wanted a whammy bar on my instrument until I saw Jeff Beck do crazy stuff that just isn't possible.
I never tell you I drove him around once.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
