Hi, Dweezil- I just sprang for the 5150 package. Just wanted to say thank you for doing all this. I was utterly obsessed with Edward in my high school days back in the 80s as a tadpole guitar player. Over the years, my personal music style took a a different path from VH-style rock, but I always kept a spot in my heart for Ed and the band. Since his passing I've been immersed in the tributes to him, reassessing my VH albums...basically revisiting my youth and falling in love all over again. When I heard about Runnin' With The Dweezil I knew you were the perfect guy to undertake this project. I'm just one episode in, and I'm loving it. THANK YOU for all this effort. Can't wait for the rest of the episodes (and the Helix presets). Be well, sir.
This series gives unique and valuable insights. I know where I was when I first heard Van Halen, and how it affected me. This podcast brings me back to that moment in 1978 - that ability should speak volumes about the power herein. I knew at that moment, and upon the first listen that life for guitarists turned itself on it’s head. I also knew I could never play like that, so I went after TONE. It’s that takeaway that I still carry to this day. Thank you Dweezil for having this idea, this vision, and the drive to make this podcast a reality.
Oh! OK, I thought this stuff was already in the box. I'd like to buy this for Shane as a gift if I can please... as he was a big fan. I think he'd dig it.
Sorry for any confusion. We've been working on this series in pre-production for a while and have many episodes recorded but they have not been edited into the final versions yet. It's very kind of you to get the series as a gift for Shane. I will send you a DM on the best options for turning it into a gift. Best, DZ

Episode 2, 12:16-12:32 repeats the end comments on 'the last show of the tour' segment, "...we did, he sang it, and it was funny.."
Hi Tim,
Thanks, I'll check it out so I can fix it. If it is in there it's unintentional.
There was a glitch in the export and I was able to fix it. Thanks for catching it!
Thank you sir! Let's keep it a surprise!
