Cleveland would be a great place to kick off the tour. The Sam and Dave tour started in Cleveland, but more importantly they could head to the RnRHOF and make up for their absence from NYC by performing a few songs on the plaza, or do some video work for the rest of the tour from there.

Where was the last place they played on the 1984 tour?
Just go back there and pick right up where they left off...
THE BADDESST BIGGEST BACKYARD M-FIN MOJO DOJO B-BQUE HERE IN THE MIDWEST, MY BACKYARD!!! THAT for the pre-show and warm-up then we ALL HEAD TO SOLDIER FIELD!!!! FOR A 3+ SHOW with live dvd's and cd's given to all paying or not! Attendees!!! Then next day I finally can die happy! Have my heart explode out of my chest, and kiss the mortgage goodbye!!!
Shreveport, Louisiana........ Sorry, wrong lead singer....
Didn't the rumors making the rounds early in the year have them starting in out in Greensboro, NC ??

www.melodicrock.com says it may start in Connecticut
I don't think it'll be a big market.... Anywhere in the Northeast risks having a rusty show to a big media market presence....
And let's face it, even if you have it in a small market like Hartford, CT, that really means Boston and New York, and I just don't think they'd want to take that chance early in the tour.... Just my .02....
They're gonna need a couple of shows to work out the kinks in the show, both on and off the stage... Whatever those may be, be it the sound, lights, videos, etc....
Not to mention to smooth out the show itself with the band....
So like I said, my guess is it'll be a middle market, someplace like I said in Greensboro would be perfect.... The city itself isn't big at all, but is guaranteed to sellout because of the surrounding areas like Richmond, Va Beach, Raleigh, and Charlotte....
Another guess may be somewhere in the Midwest, but not Chicago or Detroit or big cities like that....
Oh, who the fuck knows, just get the damn thing started....
something realy cool is i was listening to Sirius Radio today, they played Van Halen and on the screen it said, VH/DLR reunite!! How fuckin great is that??!!!
Does not matter where it starts after 23 years! IT IS STARTING!!
DAMN!!! IM SO EXCITED!!!

Good I hope the interest is shitty at first! That means I can aquire 10 or so fuckin tickets for my party! Robbie- where the fuck ya been? Ya want in??? Let me know!! JH
Don't get me wrong, I didn't say there wouldn't be interest....
They're gonna sellout irregardless of where they open up....
I'm referring to the media market....
You have a shitty and/or rusty show in the Northeast, that's gonna get a whole lot more exposure than if you do it in a smaller market....
But realistically, with the Internet, Youtube, and cellphone videos, it really won't make a difference if they fuck up..... Everyone will know it anyway....
Cabo
Roanoke(Va)Civic Center would be a great place to start...They have played here on every Roth era tour since FW in 81.
ALWAYS sold out..10,000 strong..decent sized crowd to work some bugs out on..and stones throw away from alot of decent sized cities.
And I am pretty sure we can work around the Monster Truck shows that are booked.
If it's in Bridgeport at the Harbor Yard Arena, every seat is great.Originally posted by David Lee Rocks

5 stars for a great host!
I'd rather see them about 8 shows into the tour. That way they worked out some of their shit, and they'd still likely be amped by the whole tour; little fighting and more rocking.

So, they ended in Germany. As I live in Sweden it would be closer if they picked up there. But more sucky. Europe never got VH like the US.
I am looking forward to the US trip, why not southern California, where it all started...
