In honor of what would have been Eddie Van Halen's birthday on Tuesday January 26th, a mural depicting the Guitar God will be unveiled on the wall of the famous Guitar Center on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood California.

Artist Robert Vargas, known for his murals all over Los Angeles, put the finishing touches on his masterpiece over the weekend as Van Halen's, "Romeo's Delight" blared from the speakers.

The painting is spectacular, but what about a musical tribute? Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony spoke to iHeart Radio about a tribute concert for Eddie, "It's gotta happen. Of course it's gonna happen," Hagar said. "No one's really connected all the dots with everyone involved, but I have been told and I have read in interviews with various people involved — withWolfie [Van Halen]andValerie [Bertinelli]and Eddie's wife [Janie Liszewski] — they all said as soon as this is over, we're gonna get everybody together and do a...tribute, a thank you, a goodbye, a sendoff. That's an absolute must. I don't care if it takes 10 years, that will happen."

"We've got to celebrate the music," Anthony added. "So much great music."
