Eddie Van Halen to co-host porn party

It looks like Eddie Van Halen's involvement in the adult film industry isn't just limited to soundtrack work. Van Halen will co-host a party for the launch of a porn movie called Sacred Sin, for which he recorded two songs. The event is being dubbed "The Gathering," and the guitarist is teaming up with director Michael Ninn for the private, invitation-only bash on September 30th at "the 5150 Estate in Los Angeles," which is presumably Van Halen's home.

Van Halen previously explained his relationship with Ninn to the adult industry website avn.com by saying, "I'm working with a friend -- very simple. I like his work. Michael Ninn is like a Spielberg to me: the imagery, the way he makes things look, just... sensual."

The two new songs are "Rise," which Van Halen wrote, and a remix of a track titled "Catherine," which was originally the theme music from Ninn's 2005 movie of the same name. The guitarist said, "If 'Catherine' doesn't move you, you're brain-dead." Van Halen also supplied some of the piano music that's heard throughout Sacred Sin.

Sacred Sin will be released next Wednesday (September 13th). The DVD is supposed to feature Van Halen in music videos for the two full-length songs. Clips of the music and the movie can be found at ninnworx.com/sacredsin, but it is an adult movie, so all the necessary precautions should be taken.
