Early VH owed a huge debt to blues-rock thunmpers, of which Derringer was one writ large. To see him nick a few VH licks which sound suspiciously like his own isn't too surprising.
Too many people think Van Halen rose from the ether without precedent, and it's just not true.

Regardless of who steals from who... I think he is playing really sloppy in this clip.. can't believe the audience is applauding

Regardless of who steals from who... that was complete bullshit! Where is the music? He's just wanking his ego onstage, with the same boring crap all these "shredders" play. Good grief.

AGREE.  This guy is obviously very good at the guitar, but he's a horrible musician.
