    2012 tour rumor

    Rumor from a reliable source (sisters boyfriend who is a higher up at a "classic" radio station) has the Mighty Van Halen landing in Buffalo, March 9. With Tix sales mid Jan. Sounds as if this is preliminary info, but if source is correct, it should be a huge tour as Buffalo was bypassed for Cleveland and Toronto twice on the "reunion tour".

    Doubt they would open in western NY, so my guess is things get rippin' in Feb.

    To be unPC
    MERRY X-MAS

    Nah. To be really unPC would be to spell it out...Merry Christmas. Or if wishing Sesh good tidings, Merry Spaghettimas. Tis the season for marinara sauce.


    As for the rumor of VH, we are going to be seeing a lot of these in the next several weeks. As plans start being made more people get into the loop. And for the most part, people are horrible at keeping secrets.

    Heard the same thing at a staff party from a coworkers husband in the radio industry. He would only say someone big was going to be at the HSBC arena in Buffalo in early Spring. I asked if it was VH and he only smiled

    Wow. What are the odds that Tim5150 (the starter of the rumor) and John316 (the guy confirming it) both share the exact same IP address? Lame.

    Careful. It would be prudent to recall how this guy reacted to rejection.

    I'm really sorry you busted them cause I really WANT this rumor to be true. (weeping)

    The whole Great Lakes Crew meeting up at the Hyatt - the bestest reason for a trip home EVER. These people better not be doing this to get the Buffalo Girl all tweaked.

    Oh dear.

    Speaking of which, I went over to the mall yesterday to pick up that SMILE boxed set from the record...err, CD store across from the food court. To my surprise and chagrin, both it and the dollar store were closed off and out of business. If a freakin' dollar store can't make it in a shopping mall these days, what chance does the recording industry have?

    And if I want the selection of the month (which is usually some country artist I've no doubt never heard of) I need do nothing, as it will be shipped automatically. If I don't, all I need do is complete the most needlessly complicated and frustrating return system ever invented, meaning I'll give up and just keep the God-forsaken piece of crap.

    Didn't matter if you clicked Death Metal as your style of choice, you were getting Coal Miner's Daughter on 8 track.

    Why do I envision Ed & Al sitting around bitching... fuckin Dave man had to go some west coast record outfit. Al responds... yeah, jerk... If we'd gone with Columbia we could have gotten 10 records for free and only had to pay them for 5 more at regular price. It was a better deal... Have you gotten your Record of the Month yet? Ed... nah and I'm pissed. Fuckin Dave, man!!!

    I had the opposite happen back in about 1972. My Dad was ordering country 8-tracks from the RCA Record Club. One day they accidentally sent him Led Zeppelin II. He sold it to me for what it cost him.

    I would go out in his pickup and crank that bitch up!

    MERRY X-MAS
    Ridiculous! Nobody (major musical act) "lands in Buffalo!" This silly rumor would be put to rest by anyone with any knowledge of the historically lame-ass, inept concert promoters here...

    It's not HSBC Arena, you retard! It was renamed The First Niagara Center months ago. Jagoff!

    ...sisters boyfriend who is a higher up at a "classic" radio station
    Which DJ does your sister go down on? The ones at 97 Rock? It's the only "classic rock station" here, and there's a chance I might know him. So PM me the name, and I'll make you a hero if your rumor is true....

    Buffalo wouldn't be a bad place to start the tour, based on VH's history....

    They've historically started tours in non-major markets, although in the Internet/Cell Phone age, there is no such thing as "small market" when it comes to concerts.... If they fuck up anywhere, it's on the 'Net within an hour....

    New story over at VHND.com - Ed's donating one of his guitars for a charity auction. What's noteworthy is that the guitar will be personalized by Ed "while touring."

    http://www.vhnd.com/2011/12/23/eddie...r-for-charity/

    Let's get this Ghetto Chariot rollin'!!!!!

    Edit - Just checked the auction page and I don't see under terms where it says it will be personalized "while touring". Guess I got all excited for nothing
