Van Halen Fun Facts!
- Brown M&Ms Contract Rider: Van Halen's infamous contract rider demanded a bowl of M&Ms with all the brown ones removed backstage. This was not just a rock star whim but a way to ensure promoters read the contract thoroughly to avoid technical errors that could affect their complex stage setup.
- Michael Anthony's Jack Daniel's Bass: Bassist Michael Anthony is known for his custom bass guitar shaped like a Jack Daniel's whiskey bottle. This iconic instrument became a staple of their live shows, reflecting the band's hard-partying image.
- "Eruption" Origin: Eddie Van Halen's legendary guitar solo "Eruption" was originally just a warm-up exercise. Eddie didn't intend to record it for their debut album, but producer Ted Templeman overheard it and insisted it be included, making it one of the most famous guitar solos in rock history.
