Eddie Van Halen's Guitar Tech Zeke Clark Reveals Historic Van Halen & Prince Collection (Part 2)

On Part 2 of Exclusively Van Halen on Johnny Beane TV, legendary guitar tech Zeke Clark returns with another incredible collection of rare Van Halen and Prince memorabilia from his current Backstage Auctions event. Zeke shares the fascinating stories behind an autographed 5150 vinyl LP signed by Eddie Van Halen, Alex Van Halen, Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, and 5150 Studio engineer Ken Deane. He also reveals an amazing collection of rare VHS tapes featuring Van Halen music videos, live performances, interviews, Cabo Wabo footage, Pittsburgh recordings, and other never-before-seen treasures whose contents are still waiting to be rediscovered. Having also worked closely with Prince, Zeke takes us inside another chapter of music history with a stage-used tambourine from Prince, 30 hand-stamped black Love Symbol white guitar picks personally stamped by Prince himself, and stories from his time helping develop the iconic Love Symbol era. The Van Halen history continues with Edward Van Halen's personal Fair Warning Access All Areas pass, one of Eddie's original 1978 first-issue signature guitar picks, Alex Van Halen's early Regal drumsticks, studio inspection vinyl LPs spanning 1978–1988, a Diver Down Access All Areas crew pass, 1984 stage-used guitar picks from both Eddie Van Halen and Michael Anthony, and never-before-seen personal photographs from the 5150 Tour. Zeke also shares the story behind a remarkable Farm Aid sweatshirt that Eddie Van Halen actually tried on before the band's historic first performance with Sammy Hagar in September 1985, along with rare late-'80s Van Halen pins and even more one-of-a-kind collectibles. Every item has a story, and Zeke was there to live it. If you're a Van Halen fan, collector, or rock history enthusiast, this is another episode you won't want to miss.
