This isn’t your daddy’s cantina band… or maybe it is.
I love ‘Star Wars‘ and I also love Van Halen.
So in the fine tradition of a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup… You got your ‘Star Wars‘ in my Van Halen and visa versa.
Today (1.26.21) on what would’ve been Eddie Van Halen’s 66th birthday, EVH has been given another in what I assume is a long line of tributes.
Along with murals, statues and street signs, Eddie’s been given the Star Wars treatment.
In the video below we see a Jawa (ask a Star Wars nerd) playing “Eruption” in a stop-motion animation video courtesy of YouTuber Thomas J. Yagodinski.
Yagodinski says, “This was insanely fun to make, especially taking the solo apart, frame by frame, to replicate as closely as possible to the actual shredding. Plus, I flippin’ love Jawas!! RIP to the maestro, may his music live throughout the galaxy.”
This is the Way.
