Eddie Van Halen<\/a> made a rare public appearance at a Los Angeles Tool<\/a> concert Monday, and his son Wolfgang captured a priceless moment from the evening on Instagram. The picture shows Eddie obliging a Tool fan who wanted a photo of himself with the stage in the background \u2014 though the fan didn\u2019t seem to realize the guy holding his phone was significantly more famous than anyone he\u2019d seen that night.<\/p>\n

\u201cA guy asked my dad if he could take a picture of him with the stage behind him,\u201d Wolfgang wrote, \u201chaving no idea who he just asked, and that was my favorite moment from the Tool show last night.\u201d (Kudos to Wolfgang for framing the shot perfectly.)<\/p>\n

Van Halen have been completely inactive since the conclusion of their 2015 summer tour. Wolfgang has spent that time working with Creed\/Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti and recording his debut solo LP. David Lee Roth, meanwhile, will launch a Las Vegas residency at the House of Blues in January 2020. He promises that the show will be packed with Van Halen classics. While promoting it, he essentially said that the band is over.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been canceled a number of times and I think Van Halen\u2019s finished,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve inherited the band, de facto, whatever that means,\u201d Roth said.<\/a> \u201cI think it means, you\u2019ve inherited it, carry this proudly. Van Halen isn\u2019t going to be coming back in the fashion that you know. And, that being said, Eddie\u2019s got his own story to tell \u2014 not mine to tell it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Days before appearing at the Tool concert, Eddie Van Halen was spotted at the luxury car dealership O\u2019Gara Group in Beverly Hills, California. He posed for a picture with receptionist Sue Dion that she posted on her Instagram account. It has since been deleted, but it still managed to spread all across the Internet. She may regret posting it, but at least she knew it was Eddie Van Halen. The guy at the Tool concert wasn\u2019t so fortunate, but he\u2019s still part of an image that will live forever.<\/p>\n
