ABC/Randy HolmesIn a sequel to the “David Lee Roth surprises bachelor party playing Van Halen” story, a Tool fan unknowingly asked Eddie Van Halen to take a photo of him.
The guitar icon attended Tool’s show in Los Angeles Monday with his son, and current Van Halen bassist, Wolfgang Van Halen. According to Wolf, a Tool fan approached the Van Halen duo and asked Eddie to take a picture of him, blissfully unaware he was talking to rock royalty.
“A guy asked my dad if he could take a picture of him with the stage behind him, having no idea who he just asked,” Wolf tweeted, along with a photo of Eddie taking the picture. “That was my favorite moment from the Tool show last night.”
Beyond the funny incident, seeing Eddie out and about is a welcome sight for Van Halen fans, as rumors about the musician’s health have been flying. Earlier this month, TMZ reported that Eddie had been traveling to Germany to seek treatment for cancer.
