Eddie Van Halen is undergoing treatment for throat cancer, as previously reported by DYR. This comes just 20 years after he had undergone treatment for tongue cancer as well. Well, the guitarist is feeling strong and ready to take on this cancer battle!
He says “cancer can’t slow me down” as he continues to live the best of his rockstar life.
Recently Eddie son Wolfgang Van Halen shared a family photo in which Eddie Van Halen & his wife is also seen.
Eddie is looking healthy and much better than some of the previous photos we’ve seen on the internet.
We are glad Eddie is doing well. He is a fighter and we hope he overcomes cancer soon.
While he has been flying between the United States and Germany to get treatment for his cancer, it looks like he’s actually doing pretty well. The news of this cancer does not mean he’s on his death bed by any means… he’s actually living it up, as he should be!
“Cancer Can’t Slow Me Down”
TMZ reports that Halen seems “far from sick.” He was actually shopping for exotic cars in Beverly Hills recently. The rocker stopped by a McLaren dealership and talked with the sales team, took photos with everyone, and even gave one lucky fan a kiss! It looks like he’s out and about doing his thing and definitely doing well!

So good to see this!!
To hell with that who said Dave couldn’t sing. If it wasn’t for Dave we wouldnt have had a band we all loved and still do. Sammy was good Dave was a better showman. He didn’t age gracefully. Has anybody us. Glad Eddie’s ok to bad Van Halen will never be again but will love them always. Keep rocking
Sammy could blow the doors off Daves voice all day long. Youre right that Dave was a showman though, he couldnt sing to say his life
Singing is about tone. Dave had tone for days. Sammy ain’t cool. That’s the test of a great singer. A singer on a car commercial that can hit all the notes ain’t a great singer.
‘ VAN HAGAR ‘
Right. Fans called it Van Hagar because it wasn’t Van Halen.
Can you hit the notes? Sammy can out do Dave everytime. Dave’s voice isnt why we listened to Van Halen. You can have Diamond Dave, I’ll take the Rocker.
Dave’s voice was cool those first six classics. Hagar cannot sing one of those songs well. Not one.
Bill, you have no ears. Move on…
Yea ok. Dave couldnt sing plain amd simple.
Sammy has much more presence and range than Dave could dream. No ears? K. Been studying music since I was 6. Play piano, guitar, Keys and having taken singing lessons for 15 years. How about you move on.
You have to “take lessons and study” because you have no innate ability to learn it on your own, ie: no ears. Btw, “piano” IS keys, boy.
This is an old photo/story. Sorry
His last name is Van Halen, not Halen.
Looking good to bad Dave’s voice is gone ,what was not much of a voice anyway and all tone def.Dave fans that think he was a a singer he never was a real singer Dave is what he always has been and always will be Roth is a side show to the musical Genius of of Edward Van Halen ,(TONE DEF. DAVE FANS GO BACK LISTEN TO THEM DAVE ALBUMS NOTICE THAT THE GUY SINGING THE CHORUS TO DAVE’S SONGS IS ,MICHAEL ANTHONY)
lighten up francis
It doesn’t matter if Dave was technically a good singer or not. He had loads of personality and charisma. Having both Dave and Eddie is why Van Halen was so successful. Read an interview with record exec Ted Templeton. He hated Roths singing at first but now admits Van Halen would have bombed without him.
Would be great to hear him pick up his guitar again.
Not really he ran out of new anything new after 5150. Id like to see where Eddie’s standing would be if Randy Rhodes hadnt died. He too what Eddie do and built on it.
Bill, you exemplify idiocy you uncreative follower.
Halen? Lol, Van is not his middle name, you know!
That’s not his wife anymore.
This is all old news.
Is that Valerie Bertinelli ?
I thought Eddie was married to Janie Liszekski ?
