Let's hear it !!

A Different Kind of Truth is the name of the new album.

Who is gonna go to the Garden for the Feb 28 or Mar 1 show?

[-=VH=-]

This weekend me and a bud of mine will look into the two MSG gigs...If we can keep it under $1000 it might happen...

We'll bring a banner; Nijmegen Holland salutes Ed Wolf Al and Dave

Crazy...yes we are...

[fassa]

I'm planning a trip across the pond for another VH show at the Garden. Legendary band, legendary venue.
Shooting for the Feb 28 show.

Did the same thing in 2007 for the Garden show, spectacular I might add.

[fourthcoming]

MSG 2007 and 2008 were both killer shows. I saw them on Long Island at the Nassau Coliseum a few days before the MSG show in 2007. Coliseum show was great but the MSG show was at another level. Can't wait to tell my boss.....sorry but you won't be seeing me Monday (Feb 28), Tuesday (mar 1) or Wednesday (Mar 2).......gotta have the third day to recover.

[Bob_R]

I mentioned in the 3/1 thread that that show was on my radar. This date is certainly a possibility as well.

[-=VH=-]

Looks like there are 4 of us coming over possibly...this will be the ultimate road trip!

[J Curling]

I will come over from Sweden to see both of the NY shows. We went to Charlotte/Greensboro 2007. This will be magic! Oh btw did see The Mighty Van Halen 1984 too.

VIP-packages anyone? Strongly considering this..

[haskell420]

absolutely, i'm seeing them at both shows, in AC and Philly...saw 3 shows on the reunion our in '07, 3rd show of the tour in Philly, which was by far, thee loudest arena I've ever heard in regards to cheering, it was mind blowingly awesome, then saw em here on LI and again at MSG.....just SUX that the PRE SALE is for AMEX ONLY customers...thats such BS.. I get giving that as a "perk" but come on, what if long time VH fan club members dont HAVE a AMEX card, then we gotta wait until they go on sale to the public 4/5 days later, and by then, the worse seats in the house are taken.

[-=VH=-]

my bud is trying the FB pre sale...nothing, just the VIP thing...what is this crap?

[Jack68]

In for the 28th..the Stout is a fine establishment right around the corner for a few coca colas.

[Sensible Shoes]

Make sure you go in through the link on the FB page. Only way today's presale will show up.

[-=VH=-]

we're in for both MSG dates; $133 for seats in 200 and 300. Relieved, now finalize the stay facilities...

[VOODOO_King]

I picked up 2 tix, section 109, Eddie's side for $172 each. Confirmed my airfare and hotel last night. VAN HALEN, BABY!!

[Momshell]

I'll be at this show and the 3/1 date as well - got VIP for this one and section 333 (I think) for 3/1.

[fourthcoming]

section 336 here for feb 28 and still haven't scored tix yet for 3/1 but that's just a formality....I will be there for both shows. Saw em on all 3 appearances last time around...twice at the Garden, once at Nassau coliseum. I'm not missing this....

[DLR'sCock]

OK, so I don't think I will be attending the 2/28 but I will be at the 3/1 show!

[-=VH=-]

Awesome!

She's The Woman

Now you get her a Tattoo?

[DLR Bridge]

What a woman!!!!

I am totally the lucky one in our marriage, but I try not to let her know that. Huh Ha!! But seriously, we're pretty broke right now. Not sure I wanna know how she pulled this off. This is one credit card use I'm willing to look the other way on!

[Antman]

Section 108 for this show.

[crazylevi]

For sale - ONE ticket for 12/28. Section A, row 13. That's 13th row floor.

Price is $275 which is face. Please text 917-209-8523 if you are interested.

[Momshell]

Does anyone need tix for this one? Hubby and I both bought tix at same time! I have VIP for this one and need to get rid of 2 regular tix. They're descent seats sec 120. Just trying to get back what we paid $170 each. Send me a message if you're interested or know someone who is. Thanks.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

I'll mention it on Twitter for you guys.....

Who is gonna go to the Garden for the Feb 28 or Mar 1 show?

Where/when is everyone meeting before the show? Also, tickets say the concert starts at 7:30pm. Anyone know what time VH takes the stage? I'd rather be at a local bar than have to endure Kool & the Gang!

[Sensible Shoes]

People have said they're scheduled to start at 8:50 rather than 9PM. Can't blame that on Wolfie and a school night anymore....

[Mikk555]

Heading to Beantown for the 3-11 show. VH tribute band FAIR WARNING is playin' across the street to warm up the party,,,,,,,,,,,,Can't wait!

[DLR'sCock]

I'm going to the 3.1 show, but I saw some cheap stub hub tickets for this date and I might go to this as well!

What's cheap? If you're interested, I still haven't gotten rid of my extra set of tix (2) for this show. They're good seats too - section 120. Let me know.

[Momshell]

People have said they're scheduled to start at 8:50 rather than 9PM.

Got my official "itinerary" for the VIP this morning. According to them, doors open at 6:30pm, Kool and the Gang is on at 7:30pm and VH at 9pm.

[vh rides again]

Have fun everyone, your some lucky mother fuckers.
