Let's make this birthday one to remember.

71 years old (Born on January 26, 1955)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Eddie Van Halen—guitar wizard, riff master, and original shredder extraordinaire! Your fingers danced across fretboards faster than most of us can tie shoes. Here's hoping your birthday rocks as hard as "Eruption," with more fireworks than David Lee Roth's wardrobe.

From shredding iconic solos on classics like "Jump" and revolutionizing rock guitar skills by making tapping cool (come on—we've all tried it!), you kept millions air-guitaring in their bedrooms everywhere. With Alex drumming fiercely behind you, Wolfgang laying down sweet basslines later on stage beside his dad, Michael Anthony’s soaring harmonies lifting tracks skyward—and that unmistakable frontman charisma from Diamond Dave—you truly made rock history timeless!

Rock loud up there; fans around the world will always turn our amps way past eleven just for you!
