Eddie's Stage Clothes
We have all seen a ton of Eddie's guitar gear being bought, sold, and auctioned over the years but has anyone seen any of Ed's stage clothing being collected anywhere? I know he was more of a jeans a t-shirt guy on the late tours but wondering if the stuff he wore earlier in his career ever made the rounds. Things like his overall's from 82 or the patched jeans from 84. My guess is he probably just dumped all that stuff but it would be cool to see that stuff resurface.

in Houston back in the late 80's, we had an annual Rock KLOL Rock'n'Roll auction. It was pretty awesome,
they would have several special guest to auction off authentic 'Rock' memorabilia donated by other musicians.. One year they had
a box of Eddie's tank tops from the 5150 and 0U812 tours. There were several of them, various colors in a box, sold to one bidder.

I was thinking of these sneakers that he wore a lot in 91/92 and brought back in 2004. Wonder if they are locked away in 5150.

I don't think that Ed was very nostalgic..or thinking much about that stuff. Dave? I bet he has all kinds of stuff in a climate controlled storage unit LOL. He was much more aware of image and all the trappings and much more interested in the history of entertainment

I do hope at some point the RRHOF will have lets say the striped overalls or something of his on display. I imagine though that the stuff was thrown away at some point when Valerie wanted to do some spring cleaning.

I could have sworn I saw the overalls in the background in an interview or photo since Dave was back in the band. I remember distinctly thinking it would be funny for Ed to come on stage just one time with them on. At the time he would easily have fit in them.

Crowds wouldve blown the roof off if he wouldve appeared in those!
June. 1984. Kemper Arena. Kansas City, Mo. My very first concert. The lights go out. The spotlights rotate over the crowd while a wailing guitar overtakes the screams and cheers. The opening riff of "Unchained" begins as a lone spotlight illuminates Eddie Van Halen. By himself. I was never the same after that.

What got me, and I've posted about this before, is the dressed up look during the VHIII tour. Ed and Gary sometimes looked like they were going to a wedding reception or church function after the show. Long sleeved pullover shirt, slacks, suits.
