Can't wait for tickets to go on sale. Saw them @Arco back in 2007. Guess they aren't coming to Sac. this time, so Oaktown here I come!
count me in
Got my tickets last night.......ready to rock, baby!
I'll be there, first saw the boys there in 1980
I bet they come thru Sac and Fresno on a second leg...Saw the Sac 2007 show as well, it was mighty!Originally Posted by aaronbud
Just booked the hotel. 2 months away from the mighty Van Halen!
Just 5 days away!
Wish I could have been there....site of the best 3 live vids I have ever seen.
Can't Control your Future. Can't Control your Friends. The women start to hike their skirts up. I didn't have a clue. That is when I kinda learned how to smile a lot. One Two Three Fouir fun ter thehr fuur.
Gig night tonight....any of our members going to give us updates from the inside or are we stuck with Twitter??
Told ya I was comin' back... Say you missed me... Say it like ya mean it!
I got a brand new oakland scarf ahhh
Please don't stone me but I'm not gonna be able to give updates , I just don't have it together like you and Momshell. I'm really getting fired up now. I still remember the lights going down in '80 & '81 and the mighty VH storming the stage at the Oakland Colisuem.
Just enjoy the show...
It's silly to be playing phone during a fucking concert of a lifetime...
As much as I've enjoyed what people have recorded at shows I don't think I would call it silly.
“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”
Oakland 81 is the fucking Holy Grail fo sho. Pretty sure if we had a time machine that we know where & when it would be set to.
Enjoy the show!!!
I got me a brand new Oakland scarf here. Too...as well.
With funding, I will go to every show and tweet the shit out of it.
If those vids were filmed on the 12th I was there, I thought I remembered Dave saying "got an Oakland shirt here" but i could have been mistaken
I would NEVER go to a =VH= show like this...

Not VH unless it was like a soundcheck or a special unplugged type thing. then fuck yes I'd record it. I bootlegged (audio only) The Police in 2007 and it really detracted from me enjoying the show fully. Sting has the crowd sing along a lot and I refrained so as to not fuck up my recording. Also recorded a Colin hay show, again audio only. Although if I had video available at the time I would have at least recorded him playing Down Under. Was a really cool performance.
I just wish I had video readily available back in the 80's when I was sowing all those wild oats.
Sending out a short blurb is easier than holding & focusing a camera for the duration. And even if you go out of your way to take the video, people will bitch that your hands aren't steady enough or something stupid. I'm grateful for every video people share.
Looks like whoever is doing this is just changing the color and the date of the flier, but kinda cool non-the-less. Stay Frosty everyone!
Now that looks like a tasty treat? But it should say Van Halen in the cone. Remember those cones with names? Yeah..Looks like whoever is doing this is just changing the color and the date of the flier, but kinda cool non-the-less. Stay Frosty everyone!
is this for real....coolLooks like whoever is doing this is just changing the color and the date of the flier, but kinda cool non-the-less. Stay Frosty everyone!
Now who`s that babe with the fab-u-lous shad-ow?
The first one I saw was for the Denver show...been a new one for every show since...I assume some fan is creating them...
Holy shit it's a gig night?! I knew the show was 6/3, but just realized that's today!! No way in hell I'm making it up past midnight tonight, especially on a Sunday. Too damn tired (and probably too damn old!) to lose another night's sleep and then try and function at work the next day. Fuck..whyd Oakland have to be on a school night?! Have fun everyone at the show and all my buds at home. Light em up - hope there's some estrogen in the house for you tonight! I'm sure I'll check in before sleepy time.
Stay Frosty!
THE DAY IS DONZO LET'S HAVE SOME FUNZO!!
