Nate, so cool. I'm listening to the Dallas feed, so it'll be coming up in a while. Can't wait!
Zing! will be in the house for the 5/19 show. It's my anniversary weekend, so the wifey is not thrilled with this development - but what can you do, priorities... Hoping they add Iowa to the second leg as they did in '08, I will be at that show too! Excel is indeed a great venue for a concert with great sound and plenty of places to grab a few brews before the show. Bring on the mighty Van Halen!
Bring one and all.
I must bang drinks with you all of my brethren and sisterin? LOL
I plan on being there. It's be great to possibly meet up with a few of the locals from this message board!
Dloc, just lik 07' huh?
Hey Nate! Where are you at these days? Still in the service?
I couldn't take it anymore. I got the $395 VIP and will hope for the best. I'm only 5'3" so if I get row 20, I'm going to be pissed.
I need some KISS platform boots!
I will meet you guys somewhere before the show on 7th Ave. It's going too sound great in that place. I'm not Jeffery Dahmer like !
Were we meeting ?? Tom Reids on 7th ?? It's a Saturday night !! We need to do it.

Got my tickets! Wooo hooooooooooo hot damn bring on the mighty VAN HALEN!
My karma just ran over your dogma.
Row 22 on the floor !! lOOK AT ALL THE PEOPLE HERE TONIGHT !!! Can't wait.
Even been to Eagle Street Grille & Pub on the corner across from the Xcel?
Let me tell you a sad story. A few years back I went to see the Foo Fighters at the Xcel and stayed at the Holiday Inn across the street. I had a room looking right down at the Pub (and the Xcel). Shortly after the show and milling around for a bit, my friend (from the Cities) had to go home, so I go up to my room to call it a night. I look out the window a few times and watch the streets and parking lots empty out, but the Pub is still packed and hopping. I'm thinking I should just go there for awhile, but ultimately decide not to go. Next day I get home and read the forums at the Foo Fighters site and THE FUCKING FOOS WERE THERE PLAYING AN ACOUSTIC SET AT THE PUB FOR A COUPLE HOURS AFTER THE FUCKING SHOW! They did that quite a few times during that tour and I fucking knew that too! Stupid!
Same ole song and dance...
Wow that sucks !! I love that place. I just went too the Foo Fighters at Xcel a couple months back. Great show. Love their new cd. Yeah we need to meet up somewhere for sure. It will be weird too meet people from here, but why not have a few before the show. I need to be good though i'm going myself this time & need too drive. I was half blasted at Target Center. We took the light rail up there that time from the mall.

Section 221 - not bad for cheap seats - pretty much where I sat for The Stones on the Bigger Bang tour. Now I need some advice on how to proceed upgrading my seats on the day of the show at the Xcel. Talk to Will-Call? Find an usher? Call the event center and inquire? I've done it before (upgraded from nosebleeds to ten feet from the stage for The Stones' Voodoo Lounge show at Cyclone Stadium in Ames, IA). Bit rusty though - any tips for this specific venue would be appreciated!
Zing, if you find out, let me know. I am 228 I believe and would like to upgrade.
Hot damn tickets came today! Another reason to celebrate this weekend. Gonna listen to the new Dave narration vids and listen to ADKOT while knocking back the suds and staring at my tix...
What the fuck happened to Northern Girl ??
Dunno...she's been unusually quiet lately. Damn - we're only like three months away from showtime, Northern!
Been checking Ticketmaster every once in awhile, looks like it will be pretty close to a sellout (not sure about what those broker bastards have snatched up though - or the VIP packages - but the rest looks like it should be full). As the tour gets underway the excitement will be mounting as we approach 5/19. I'm already excited as all get out for the Army members that are hitting the Louisville gig. Have fun gang!
I wish I was going.
Oh just can't afford it this time. I'm in my last semester for my BS (at 38 years old with a wife and three kids) and we're to the point that we don't have enough extra to even buy gas to drive to the show, much less hotel, tickets, parking, food, etc. I'm just kinda bummed about it. I was kind of okay, but they seem to really be a lot more into it this time around than they were in 07. That's all. But, the whole family is making sacrifices.
That's a bummer, but I totally hear ya. Not in a so terribly different position myself - but I guess that's why man invented plastic. Your Heartland =VH= brethren will be sure to represent for you on 5/19!
