Since the age of about 15, rarely has a day passed when I haven't listened to or thought of a Van Halen song. Eddie was unquestionably my favorite musician of all time. I was fortunate enough to meet him three times in my life and -- as a music journalist -- I would ask his wife once or twice a year if I could pop by his home studio for an interview. Recently when she told me that he wasn't available, it never occurred to me that the man may be sick. This is heartbreaking and I feel that a large part of my youth has just been ripped away.
