So I'm gonna keep this one short and sweet because I'm kind of having a hard time talking if you can hear from the sound of my voice. But Eddie Van Halen has passed away at the age of 65. He was truly one of the most incredible musicians that the world had to offer. And he inspired so many people. I can't even begin to describe how important his music was to so many people. And he will be truly missed

Yeah, Callie. I just seen that. I just seen that, like, two minutes before you put your post up. And, yeah, Condolences going out to Eddie Van Halen. He's a great guitarist, great musician. My one memory of Eddie Van Halen is playing a solo on Michael Jackson's. Beat it. I remember back in that day, that was one of the really, the big highlights back then, I everybody made a big deal

You know, it's just so strange. Excuse me to be alive right now and now. All of a lot of the music acts that I grew up listening to that we all grew up listening to from the 80s and the 70s. They're all starting to pass away now. And yes, it's tough. You kind of feel like you lose a piece of your childhood. I know that's how I felt when Prince died

I feel like all of these icons, all of these huge personalities from pop culture that have been there, forming my story, my life, the quilt, the patches in the quilt. They're starting to fall away one by one. But this was a big one
