The Beatles will never get back together and David Lee Roth will never again sing with Van Halen.
Eddie Van Halen was probably the most influential.
I do like Eddie Van Halen as a player. He gets it right quite often.
At some point I decided I didn't want to learn any more guitar technique. I was at that level where the next mountain there was to climb was Van Halen and I didn't really like Van Halen.
