Official 5/7 Vancouver Meetup/Review Thread

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Welcome to the Official 5/7 Vancouver Meetup/Review thread. This thread is to discuss anything leading up to the show, as well as all reviews.

Let's hear it !!

[Romeo Delight]

Gidddeup!!

[VanCanHalen]

Cant wait to go, hopefully news in the next couple weekes on when tix go on sale, might consider the VIP tix if I dont have to mortgage the home and sell the dog!

[Romeo Delight]

That was close...Got to the last stages of the online order and I needed to select a country...except Canada was not listed!!! I selected Brazil or something and all is well thankfully.

[VanCanHalen]

Got 2 VIP tixs right at 10AM, hopefully in the 2-5th row, crossing fingers :-)

[VanCanHalen]

Romeo did you grab the VIP tickets or the Amex presale?

[phegedus]

Just bought my tickets! I can't wait!

[VanCanHalen]

Just bought my tickets! I can't wait!

Where did you end up getting your tickets? Hopefully some goods seats!

[phegedus]

I had to get 8 tickets in a row so we are up in section 317. What about you?

[VanCanHalen]

I went all out for me and the girl, VIP's second tier so anywhere from rows 2-11 Floor.

[phegedus]

Nice! I am very jealous. Not too sure about the open band. I will have to try to listen to them a bit before the show.

Just gives you more time for multiple trips for beer

[phegedus]

Yea, like the last time they came to town they had one of Bob Marley's kid playing. The beer line was the place to be.

[VanCanHalen]

I remember that as well, well kind of.....................

[Romeo Delight]

On a hunch I had a look again and saw an interactive section-by-section layout of all available seats. Exchanged my tix...with a surcharge for row 11 on what is essentially row 1-2 up from the floor.

weird that all shows don't have this interactive list.

[VanCanHalen]

Nice job on getting closer, you seated at the side of the stage I assume?

[Romeo Delight]

Yep. I'll never buy teh AMEX tix again...It appears as if these are tix that brokers or whatever snagged and they were then put back for the general public. An entire row opened up one day!!!

Had I been checking more often I wonder what I could have snagged. Hard to complain about these seats though. Paid large through a broker for worse than these last tour.

[Romeo Delight]

I am afraid I probably can't meet up with anyone...so many people want to hook up at the event. I will be the one in the Roth Army T-shirt! be sure to stop me and say hello!

[VanCanHalen]

I'll be sporting a RA Tee as well, somewhere between rows 2-11, hopefully 2!!! Counting the days

[howie]

Hey - don't miss this one! Toronto was fucking amazing. You're all gonna have a riot at this show...

[Romeo Delight]

I saw row 8 centre stage floor for sale yesterday at face value on ticketmaster

[Momshell]

Fuck - this one is in Pacific time - again. Not sure I'll make it. I'll check in later regardless. Have fun to everyone going!

[Va Beach VH Fan]

You have no idea Dloc...I am sorry to say I am going to enjoy every last second of this and probably not tape anything.

It's so funny today getting calls from people who I haven't talked to in 20 years..."Hey, you going to Halen?"

What a stupid question.

Let's just say my possee and I are going to make up for that non-showing in Greensboro pre and post!!!! Giddeup!!

I got downtown 8 hours prior just in case of an earthquake or bridge collapse.

[Romeo Delight]

Someone get RD some Valium, he's sure to be fired up this morning....

So true man, I am hyped up!!!! My entourage is growing exponetially as we speak. Release the hounds!!!!!

[loucap81]

Have fun guys, wish I could be there. Have never been to the Pacific northwest.

[Momshell]

Looks like Momshell's gotta miss this one. I hate when they play out west. Too late for me! I'll miss hanging with you guys during the show. Have an awesome time Romeo - sounds like you are pumped!!

[ALMOSTsaved]

I won't be making this one either. Hope I don't miss any new tunes as they are played.

[DONNIEP]

So we're what, an hour and a half 'til show time?

[Zempi]

I think you West Coasters and going to have to sub tonight. I am not even sure I can stick around either!
