I really don`t get it what is the problem :) ?!

The amount of messages and comments I've gotten between instagram, facebook, and t shirt slayer about how much people hate this. Literally going to do this as a woven back patch now,.

Do you not feel like it’s disrespectful to Van Halen? Wether or not Eddie liked Jimi, you still didn’t get their permission. If it’s a boot then you’re just making money without giving back to them, or what’s left of Jimi’s family. Can’t you see that?

So every single bootleg patch ever made was an affront to the members families? I've never heard this before.

I make such small amounts of bootlegs, I feel like your energy is wasted here mate.

Hahahah this is silly but I like it. I remember my friend had a shirt with a picture of Jimi on it but the logo on top said Bob Marley... that blew some fuses too! People could not handle it.

Do people not know Eddie got the Van Halen logo from an old Jimi Hendrix logo?

I mean at this point it totally is the EVH symbol but either way what's wrong with it?

Starside-Relics's picture

I never knew that's where the VH logo came from! Thanks for the history lesson BFD88. Makes for a cool patch and will definitely ruffle the feathers of some fun-hating individuals hahaha

Can you provide a link explaining this? I thought it was made by a member of van halen. The poster is not enough to convince me lol

I don't think it's that unbelievable that the Van Halens or anyone else in the band would wanna take from their idol, but here's an excerpt from the Runnin with The Devil biography put out by the bands original manager.

"For years, the story went that designer Dave Bhang drew the iconic winged Van Halen logo. He may have, but according to Monk it was appropriated almost exactly from a poster of Jimi Hendrix -- the guitarist to whom Eddie Van Halen would be most compared in the early days. To get back at original manager Marshall Berle for using the band’s funds in ways that were interpreted as deceitful, the group allegedly ransacked his office, taking anything that wasn’t bolted down. Monk ended up with a box of leftover items that he forgot about after tossing into the back of a closet. A couple years later, he came across it and, upon closer inspection, found the Hendrix poster replete with a logo that Monk says is “nearly identical” to the now instantly recognizable Van Halen"

Here's a link to the story

If I'm wrong then that's totally on me and my mistake, but STILL I don't think the patch is bad

Thanks for info. First I heard this.

I knew I saw this logo years ago, i'm glad I didn't imagine it. I'm not familiar with the history of who made what, but it's still a cool design.
