Eddie Van Halen?!

This photo?

It's a small image, but he does look weird. Not in the "I did too much drugs" way, but his face looks structurally different. If he wasn't holding that guitar, I wouldn't have known he was EVH.

Holy crap... :eek:

It looks like he's had a facelift... his face looks all taut and rubbery... it's even got a hint of the Michael Jackson to it...
 
On a radio program I listen to on the way to work they were talking about the latest inductions to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. One of the guys told the host that along with all those inductees, they'll be inducting this person and showed him a picture from that days newspaper. The host said "Estelle Getty is going in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?" It was a pic of Eddie and the host didn't believe his partner when he rold him. I didn't see that paper (I live in a different city.) but several people called in, all agreeing Eddie looked like a severely drug-damaged older woman in the pic.
 
That is actually a very complimentary photo compared to some. I thought that there was a thread about some of the latest pix, but did not see it.
Here's a URL to one of them.

And check out this article about him. It says how he got to look that way http://blogging.la/archives/2006/03/eddie_van_halen.phtml

Also did anybody here about how Van Halen replaced Michael Anthony for Eddie's 15 year old son Wolfgang Van Halen and how David Lee Roth is joining in again. Why would the replace Mike, it's ridiculous.
 
Well he's not a kid anymore. Have you ever seen "Faces of Meth"? A prison cop put it together showing mug shots of repeat offenders that were Meth addicts and how much they went down hill in a fairly short period of time. Pretty scary. He could be one of those pictures.
