How many times have you seen Roth in Concert?

[NATEDOG001976]

These are the time I have seen Roth In concet:

Aug 1994 in Minneapolis. I was 18 at the time and I was drinking in the bar. I got caught, and they le me stay.lol. I also got to meet Roth after and got his autograph, it was very cool.

June 2001 in Minneapolis at the "Hairball" outdoor parking lot show. With Warrant and Blue Oyster Cult and Great White. Firehouse closed the show, and everyone left after Roth...lol fucking funny as hell.

July 2001 at Rock Fest in Cadott, WI. A crazy outdoor "Drunk fest" with 50,000 + people, it was crazy fun!

Nov 2004 at Mystic Lake Casino in Minneapolis. Roth had a 20 min comedy act that night, it was great.

I've also seen Van Hagar in 1995 & 2004, nothing to write home about...lol

[ALMOSTsaved]

Although I remember each show quite well, I won't go into specifics other than dates:

September 5, 1981: (11 Years Old) Van Halen "Fair Warning" Tour

July 24, 1982: (12 Years Old) Van Halen "Diver Down / Hide Your Sheep" Tour

January 28, 1984: (13 Years Old) Van Halen "1984" Tour

November 8, 1986: (16 Years Old) Solo "Eat 'Em & Smile" Tour

July 3, 1988: (18 Years Old) Solo "Skyscraper" Tour

July 19, 2003: (33 Years Old) Solo "Diamond Dave" Tour

All shows with the exception of the last were in Biloxi, MS. The last show was in Gulfport, MS.

Souvenirs:

Ticket stubs: From all the shows.

Tour Books: From "Fair Warning", "Diver Down", "1984" & "Eat 'Em & Smile" Tours. However I cut them all up except the "EEAS" and hung them on my walls when I was younger. I've since bought a mint condition "Fair Warning" Tour Book and have it along with the "EEAS" Tour Book in a nice safe place.

T-Shirts: From the "Diver Down / Hide Your Sheep" & "1984" Tours.

Photographs: From all 3 solo tours I attended.

I was 14 at my first VH show. What a rush!
The WACF tour is the only one I remember them using dry ice. I also remember they played " In a simple Rhyme".

Here a pic of my stubs, except I lost my Diver Down stub. Damn !

[ms7088]

I don't think VH was in Wichita in '83. I believe they were in Wichita in Nov. of '82 for the Diver Down tour.

[Diamondjimi]

VH took pretty much all of '83 off if my memory is correct. Except for their performance at the US Festival and the writing/recording of the 1984 album.

Couldn't be more jealous of you folks!

Due to e-x-t-r-e-m-e distance have only seen Dave twice in 1988
Classic Van Halen has never toured in my neck of the woods
Likewise Van Hagar has never toured in my neck of the woods
Oh Ga y Halen did tour here in 1998, but I didn't go to that because...

...it's DAVE OR THE GRAVE, baby!!!

[rustoffa]

The time before last was @ the Chastain Amp-i-theater here. It rained so fucking hard that night.....we were drinking Jack Daniels in the rain in ponchos.

It was a torrential downpour that erased everything except bleeps and kwirks regarding my live Roth experiences. Kim Wilson opened up for Roth that night....it was fucking pouring. The bleeps come and go thanks to that fucking rain....it rained @ music midtown a few years before that, and all I can remember is BBQ VHS' hitting me in the head and shit.

The mid-to-early nineties? Washed away. There's like one fucking bleep of Dave doing the russian leap in a pair of cutoff rave pants. Fake smoke outta surfboards and shit.....a few years before and way hazier.

There was a few good things about that rain-soaked amphitheater show. Some dude caught his fucking hair on fire trying to smoke pot in a poncho....LMFAO. And this drunk chick asked a stoned Lomenzo if he could play Come Sail Away 'cause it was raining so fucking hard. That dude was fucking STONED.

Fuck, I dunno how many times I've seen Roth. Fuck the rain, Fuck ponchos, Fuck a Fabulous Thunderbirding harmonica dipshit, and fuck the fuck off.

This could be one of Rustoffa's nights where he goes off on several dimensions at the same time...where it takes you days to figure out what he meant...

Flamma, there is nothing dimensionally going on here.

I walked 10 miles @ 6 flags today, saw the hottest ACE FREHLEY you could ever imagine, and it didn't fucking rain.

My feet hurt, and I surfed on in to talk about CVH.

If you feel satisfied with the explanation, feel free to donate to the cuntest up there....it's all about discipline.

[JJMcClure]

First saw DLR when he played Belfast in 1994 YFLM tour. The sound was terrible the guitar kept cuttin out but I didn't give a shit cos that was my fuckin idol on stage. Also saw him last year in Dublin. Best gig I've ever been to. The band was tight and Dave was absolutely superb. Hope he comes back this side of the Atlantic soon.
