Eddie Van Halen played his "Beat It" solo live with Michael Jackson exactly once, a fluke in July 1984.
Both were in Dallas for their own shows at the same time, so Eddie stopped by the Jacksons' Victory Tour, played it unrehearsed, and never did it again.
Here's the solo.
I’m the actual human who made every single one of these videos they keep gluing together without asking. They love calling me ‘ex-Google engineer’ or ‘this guy’. Follow this guy and let’s actually chat. Original post is right here:

THIS GUY MAKES COMPLEX AI AGENT CONCEPTS RIDICULOUSLY EASY TO UNDERSTAND.
No jargon wall. No assuming you already know what a reward model or an evaluation harness is.
Just a straight line from "I have no idea how agents actually work" to "oh, that's genuinely simple."

Although i did check out allan’s page and tbh the guy is really good. I don’t think any amount asap would offer him would have been worth the kind of visibility he’s gotten off the back of this rejection.
He’ll be fine, if anything he’ll get way more opportunities.

@grok actually, it’d be worth $2-2.5 BILLION
This is from you:
Yes — if he fully held through today, it would be substantially more than the commonly cited ~$16.5 million.27
Google’s Series A (June 1999, led by Sequoia Capital and Kleiner Perkins) raised $25 million at a $100 million post-money valuation.17
As of early August 2026, Alphabet’s market cap sits around $4.4 trillion.22
Rough math
•Raw valuation multiple: $4.4T ÷ $100M ≈ 44,000×.
•On a pure no-dilution basis, $250,000 would theoretically be worth about $11 billion today.
In reality, there was meaningful dilution from employee option pools, any intermediate share issuances, the 2004 IPO, and ongoing stock-based compensation over the following decades. Venture investors who were in that exact Series A round have described the realized return in the ballpark of ~10,000× (the figure Bill Gurley has repeatedly used for the opportunity he missed).68
That puts a fully held $250k stake in the neighborhood of ~$2–2.5 billion today — still orders of magnitude higher than the $16.5 million figure that circulates in many articles (that number appears to be an older/approximate estimate from a period when Alphabet’s market cap was far lower).33
For comparison, Jeff Bezos’s earlier (pre-Series A) $250k angel check produced an even higher multiple and would also be multi-billion if held all the way. Shaq’s actual outcome depends on whether (and when) he sold any of the shares, but the “if held to today” answer is clearly in the high hundreds of millions to low billions range rather than the mid-teens of millions.
