Dweezil,

This series is amazing. Thanks for being the guy who can lead this for all of us VH nerds. 
Thank you!

Really enjoying this series Dweezil! One thought on the "Johnnie Winter 'Yeah'" discussion on the 'Fools' track. It may be Johnnie Winter, but it also sounds suspiciously close to a uvular Gene Simmons "yeah!" circa 1970's. Diamond Dave used another vocal "Simmons-ism" on 'Beautiful Girls' in the line near the end of the song where he says "I love 'em, I need'em, can't do without'em, no!" This is a straight up Gene Simmons line from a Kiss tune. Yes, really ;-)

For those of you who aren't familiar with Simmons' early involvement in Van Halen check out these demos he did with them in 1976:

TURN IT UP!

In any case... Keep rocking on with your uvula my brothers!

I am really enjoying the guests and the insights into the music and guitar of Van Halen. This had given me another reason to listen to the whole VH catalog again and am enjoying that too. Thank you for doing this.

Hi Sean,

Thanks! Glad you're loving it! The presets have not been made yet. They will be part of the episode on reverse-engineering the brown sound. We now have plans for that episode to be filmed! The presets will be made during the production of that episode. That will be a bit further down the line. Stay tuned and happy holidays!
