I didn't know he was ill. Sad news indeed.
He's been battling cancer in one form or another for years.

I didn't know either.
I was a bit of a hardcore punk rock, post-punk (and classical music) elitist as an adolescent, but a secret pleasure would be setting up my stereo speakers facing one another about 3’ apart and laying on the floor between them blasting *Women and Children First* at 200 Db.
It was sonic heaven beginning to end.
😢 RIP Eddie Van Halen.
Thanks for making my ear damage at 16 so dazzlingly awesome.

@voltronic so sad. He was sick for so long.
