That's a pretty sad story. Wish EVH and Geddy made up.

Rush had rented the entire bar and Van Halen weren't too happy about that as they wanted to celebrate since it was Micheal Anthony's birthday. At some point during the night, Geddy Lee of Rush and Eddie Van Halen were hanging out together in Lee's room. Geddy was playing Eddie some songs from Rush on a tape recorder when Eddie drunk as a skunk poured his beer into it. A year later in 1981 the two bands were playing Las Vegas. Geddy had seen Eddie at a casino and wanted to walk up to shake his hand but a Van Halen bodyguard had tackled Geddy to the ground. The two never met again. Neither bands has played at the same concert but did cross paths with each other in the early 80's.

between the third world and the rich white

Eddie Van Halen is a well known douche and a one trick money. Lee doesnt need his friendship
