Watch this guy react to seeing Eddie Van Halen play guitar for the first time!

There are a lot of “reaction” videos online. But this is one of the better ones. This guy is funny!

How long have you been a Van Halen fan? Years? Decades?

Well, for the guy in this video, you can watch him become a Van Halen fan right before your naked steaming eyes. And it’s a real treat!

This guy, Shaq, posts videos of himself reacting to music videos, as he’s seeing them for the very first time. And he has quite an online following – his YouTube channel  has nearly a million subscribers.

This guy has NEVER seen Van Halen, even on video. In the video above, you can see him watching Eddie Van Halen play guitar for the first time. And his reactions are priceless!

This guy is in total jaw dropping astonishment watching Eddie’s guitar solo from Van Halen’s 1986 “Live Without A Net” concert video.

“This is witchcraft right here!”

Watching him discover Edward Van Halen’s talent reminds you how exciting it was to discover it for yourself years ago.

We liked how he picked up on Eddie’s cool factor, even before he hit a note.

Watch the reaction video. You’ll be glad you did.
