Ross Halfin Diary (recently photo shoot of Eddie)

[VAVH]

Interesting...maybe a sign of things to come...November 21
Wake up and it's a beautiful day. Looked at LA Weekly. There is a huge full-page ad for U2 and Pearl Jam in Hawaii at Aloha Stadium. Hawaii's a five hour flight from Los Angeles - they can't be selling tickets. You buy a ticket then have to get a ten hour flight and a hotel. They must think people are stupid. How much was it to get in tonight? Oh, only about ten grand...

Spent today shooting Edward Van Halen. Edward arrives looking very trim for fifty-two. 'Hey Ross, good to see you - you're looking old.' Me, old? How dare he?

Goes well, he spends most of the time laughing because it's been so long since he's done this. I get a lot done - he doesn't mess around. It's quite good shooting fast, reminded me of the times when people actually wanted their photo taken. Edward just got on with it - he even listened to early Van Halen on my ipod, laughing and grimacing while I was
shooting. It was a pleasure...

Had dinner with Brad Tolinski, editor and megalomaniac, my friend Grant, and Matt, who looks after Edward. Matt said Edward was pleased with the session which is what counts. I told them the story of falling through the clouds. Brad told a horrible story of running out of oxygen while deep sea scuba diving, the same as climbing Everest, and being disorientated - no real judgement.

My guess it would be for an upcomming Guitar World..

[Jape Man]

Yep, sounds like it, with Brad Tolinski there.

Looking forward to it!!!!!

[Rockguitarstar]

this means one of three things if it is for a new guitar world
1) new Van Halen material featuring someone on lead vocals
2) new Eddie Van Halen solo material billed as new Van Halen, however featuring no vocalist
3) the Rock and Roll HOF items

Whatever it is, maybe guitar world will actually be worth reading for once

It's gotta be for GQ, for sure....The toeless boot is spreadin' like wildfire....

LOL probably.

Could be about the Rock Hall crap too.

I just emailed Mr. Halfin (or whoever answers his email) and asked what was the shoot for. I'll let you know if I get a response.
