@Jakeraz @hayasaka_aryan "Self-partnered" is a term popularized by Emma Watson, meaning being happily single and focusing on self-care, fulfillment, and personal growth—like being in a committed relationship with yourself. It's about embracing independence without seeking a romantic partner.
I’m trying to compute the last couple days and honestly I’m absolutely fucking shattered.
You have been my North Star for everything for as long as I can remember from when I was misunderstood as a child to the way people thought I was just a little “too much” or “strange” in my life and career.
I owe so much to you, your wife and your family - you all gave me a road to run down and supported me when people would turn their nose up.
You loved life so much and you adored music. It was your smile man. You taught me it was beautiful to be out of the box.
I promise you with all my heart I will try my best and make it my life’s journey to keep the sprit that you started and what you have taught me alive. I will give it my best shot.
To sing this song for you at an event surrounded by legends inspired by you to a crowd that loved you was truly my life’s greatest honour and I vow to play this song every night for the rest of my life.
You’re my hero in every regard. I hope you’re up there avin a drink with Randy.
For the prince of darkness you sure brought all the light to the world. I love you Ozzy.
My… my GOD…
I FINALLY understand!
It’s so clear, it HURTS how I could’ve been so blind…
This is THE MOST PERFECT ANALOGY EVER…
Try it at home, ladies. Sit next to a chunk of pastry & you’ll SEE just how this
makes complete sense & is NOT fucking ridiculous in ANY WAY!
I just ordered 10 rose gold Teslas.
I will be giving all of these away to followers tonight at 8pm PST!

Eruption- Van Halen- Eddie Van Halen Guitar Solo- Electric Violin Cover by Nina D
Nina’s Notes 🎶:
This was by far the hardest thing I’ve learned thus far on electric violin in the rock genre. This is the solo of all solos. While there is no shortage of covers and tutorials on the internet for a guitarist who wants to learn it, when I went to learn it, almost nothing of the sort existed for violin. There were a few covers out there on acoustic violin that are great- but anyone who knows me, knows I wanted to try and sound as authentic to Eddie as possible, on violin. There were many steps to this process, the biggest being learning how to finger tap on a violin. It was a long process of trial/error and practice to achieve the effect chain and technique.
Some FAQ:
1.) It is a 7-string violin, not a chin guitar. If you don’t understand why, ask me a question! I will gladly answer. (But don’t state something as fact you have no experience in). I am a classically trained violinist who also plays electric violin, guitar, bass, and piano. I am qualified to answer your questions.
2.) It’s not easier to play on a violin. (Violin is never the “easy” instrument).
3.) Yes, I write my own music, but that has no bearing at all on being an instrumentalist. The best virtuoso instrumentalists in the word mostly do not write music because they practice all the time- to be the best they can be at their instrument. (Touring soloists, session players, hired guns for A-listers).
4.) No, I’m not miming to Eddie. You can come see this live on my tour dates with Femmes of Rock. You can also find live videos of this on YouTube.

Lemmy is a legend. Old, tired and seriously ill, but still roaring with all the air left in his lungs. All for the love of Rock and Roll and his fans.
He died a few months after this performance.
