    New guy here...

    Hello all,

    Unfortunately, I wasn't alive to witness the Golden Years of VH, but all through my youth I was guided along the right path by my old man towards Diamond Dave, blasting Van Halen II at 6 a.m to hockey practice. I was fortunate enough to attend in '07, and though it was nothing compared to when they played Toronto in '83 (from what I've been told), I was happy enough to witness Dave take control of the crowd, and fuckin own the night!

    You tend to repeat yourself.

    You have terrible taste in beer.

    But your women are hot, and your bud is spectacular, so we'll call it even.



    But dont push it, eh?

    This isn't one of my aliases but why wasn't anyone suspicious considering
    Lounge made a point of Cadaverdog and Bastardson both using a "u" in
    rumours.
    May 5th birthday?
    Cinco de Mayo.
    I used Dec 7th .
    Both something you'd tell a cop so you wouldn't screw up if they asked
    you again.

    More than likely because Pennypacker has typing skills that are not quite as idiosyncratic as your own.

    I managed to get through most of high school taking reading and classes
    where you watched movies everyday to get the required amount of
    credits to graduate.
    Can't even remember ever taking a regular english class.
    Never could master typing .
    Never had any training in computer use.
    I know just enough to get by.

    I've been reading around the forum and apparently no one likes you. I'd loved to know the reasons why. Anyone?

    Its ok, your still higher than Thorman on my list. Can't stand that guy.

    Never had any training in computer use.
    I know just enough to get by.
    When I graduated high school in the late seventies, my class was the last to be offered typing class. The day after I graduated, the school replaced the program with...computer instruction.

    It's a long story.
    It's not so much that nobody likes me .
    It's that the people who don't are more agressive .
    You rub some folks the wrong way , you catch hell.
    Some that would speak up don't.
    They don't want the agressive ones to target them.

    How were those shows back in the early 80's, any memories?

    What made them so different?

    Damn I wish I grew up in the 80's. I missed out!

    Wow, your a little pissy aint ya! I dont come in here talking smack like a lot of people. If you want to talk about Roth go to a Roth site or better yet grab a magazine from the early 80's and you'll find he was in the band until the formation of CVH. Dude, lest we not forget!

    Bam

    Ill say it again cause you may be hard of hearing

    BAM

    You've made me think about something.What's wrong in my life that I waste
    the amount of time I do trying to get people I don't even know to like me.
    Who cares if they like me or not.I must be really bored.But then again I
    have no life .But I don't post near as much as others.What does that say about them?What's lacking in their lives? That being said.Enjoy posting.
    But don't take this shit too serious.I'm gonna find another outlet for my
    boredom.I've still got TV.

    Amazing,rowdy,crazy. VH played with reckless abandon. The shows were a major fucking party scene with Dave as the host and the band providing the soundtrack. There was no guvernor on the band, it was full on party time.
    I remember that by the time they hit it big with 1984 ,I thought they were a little bit too MTV for me .But I enjoyed it nontheless.
    I remember the celebratory madness that spilled out into Carlton and College St. . People climbing on cars,Traffic completely stopped by drunken rowdy fan chanting "Ha-len,Ha-len,Ha-len" , Buying bootleg concert shirts off of dudes selling them out of the trunks of their cars for 10 bucks. I still have one from 1980. The thing is as thin as cheesecloth , but I still keep it around..
    Ya had ta be there! ...

    Yeah, my experience at the ACC in '07 was similar to yours from the 80s lol. Obviously not as rowdy and crazy as the crowd at this show consisted of anyone from ages 9 to 79. I swear these group of kids in front of us couldn't have been no more than 12. Besides the ridiculous $40 tour shirts (which I bought 2) and $12 beers, I had a great time lol.

    Talking

    I must be getting slow in my old age. I only just now realized that your avatar is actually the source artwork for the GnR Use Your Illusion albums. Compounding this, I'm currently reading Stephen Davis' mistake-filled bio of the band, "Watch You Bleed". (A definite must-NOT-read if there ever was one.) As a result, you'd think I'd be a bit more on the ball, even if by accident.
