I didn’t realize until I saw this a couple of days ago just how good Wolfgang is. And he’s apparently just as good a drummer, bassist, and keyboardist. He’s basically all of Van Halen in one person, which I guess makes sense. Josh Freese also killed it on the drums on Hot for Teacher.
Also need to call out Justin Hawkins (no relation to Taylor) various performances.
I’ve never been a fan of The Darkness - but quite enjoy his YT channel Justin Hawkins Rides Again - which politely deconstructs music and gives insights into the music world in general.
I saw Wolfgang Van Halen when he and his touring band opened for Guns n Roses last year and he was incredibly good. He doesn’t normally play VH songs and downplays his surname. Apparently he’s more interested in making a name for himself on his own merits. Good for him, I say.
