It's not every day a rock legend says he shared a cigarette with the ghost of Eddie Van Halen .

During David Lee Roth's Wednesday, August 13, show in Hampton Beach, NH, the legendary Van Halen frontman claimed he was recently visited by the ghost of Van Halen himself - though not in quite the same way his former bandmate, Sammy Hagar , once described.

Back in 2022, Hagar shared with UCR that Van Halen had appeared to him in a dream, even gifting him a guitar riff. "I remembered it. I got up in the morning and I wrote the song. I used the f**kin' lick that he showed me in the song," Hagar said at the time. That riff eventually became part of the track "Encore, Thank You, Goodnight," released nearly three years later.
