HOLY CRAP! THEY ARE COMING TO TOWN!!!!
*goes leaping around the room*
Change of plans for me and the misses. We'll be heading to Nashville instead of Greensboro for this tour.
Well its official! I'm heading to Nashville with the Mrs., so where is the Roth Army meeting up at?
Not sure yet. So far you and I are the only Roth Army peeps going to this show. I have about 15 friends, and we have yet to decide where the pre-show meetup will be.
Nice thing is that the arena is right downtown on Lower Broadway where there are tons of bars usually devoted to the Kuntry Tourists....
When we figure something, I will let you know. I got a seat halfway back along one side...and my seat is just at or slightly above stage level....PERFECT seats without being front row.
One of my neighbors has a best friend whose brother works for Irving Azoff......so he and his best friend are going to Louisville, they have a pair of tickets at the vanity ramp, and all access VIP backstage passes.....so after the Louisville show I will post any stories he has to tell....
Never thought I would EVER see this.....
Late to the party here, but I and a family member yet to be determined will be at Bridgestone. I was really disappointed last tour they didn't hit Gnashville. I'll be there this time!
And as gay as this may sound, I am actually looking forward to seeing Kool and the Gang. Could be interesting....

I'll be at the show as well. Can't wait!
Heck yea! I got my ticket. April 27th, Nashville here I cum
Kool & The Gang better play "Jungle Boogie" or I'm gonna be pissed.
BrownSound? I'll be a sumbitch! I was hoping we would at least get one Roth Army Mod to show up here.....
Kewel!
I'll be at the Nashville show! Taking my 10 yr old so he can see a REAL Rock Show!! The Mighty Van Fucking Halen!!!
"Hey man, that suit is you!!"
I'll be there with my wife and my oldest kid he's 10 also can't wait!
Right on peeps! Get dem kids knowin' about REAL music!
Hope everybody has booked a room because the whole city is totally booked- no vacancy. The beautiful thing about Bridgestone arena is that at the end of the show you trip, stumble, roll three times, stand up and your at the front door of a bar!
We may do Margaritaville or something on 2nd ave.

Haha bitches!
FUCKING VAN HALEN, MUTHA FUKKAZ!!!!!
I have not been so excited about seeing a concert in years!
Well this fuckin' blows! Looks like I'll have to sell my tickets since the damn electrical contractor I worked for has laid me off. If you know anyone who wants a pair, let them know I'm selling two tickets w/parking pass at $20 less then what I paid for and the buy it now option is at full price since Ticketmaster likes to rape everyone's wallet with fees.

Hope you sell them. As of right now, there are a total of about 777 tickets still available through the regular Ticketbastards show.
Sucks man. Thought I might meet you before the show. Oh well. Maybe next time.
Well the tickets didn't sell. So fuck it, I'M GOING!
RIGHT ON DUDE!
Hmmmm.....I need to get with my friends and figure out a pre-show meeting place at one of the bars on tourist-trap row.
Will let you know time, place, etc. when we can all agree on something.
one week to go lets get fired up who's going to this show? Pre-game or after party or both? I need a Van halen break!!!
Less than a week now, my friends!! I will have my 10 yr old with me, but would love to meet some folks...if its a place he can come also. I'm so freakin jacked up for this show. The Mighty VAN HALEN Rules!!
All right, where are we meeting at?
Cuz uh! If the Van Halen family kicks ass and Diamond Dave kicks ass, you put the two together--YOU GOT SOME KICK ASS SHIT!!!
Well, we're up.
I never thought I'd live to see the day. It's been nearly 28 years (July 7, 1984-Roberts Stadium, Evansville, IN). I wasn't lucky enough to get to the last tour so this could get emotional. I have warned my daughter, who probably will be going with me, that when "Unchained" starts I could shed a tear or two. And I am gonna be doing some dancin' during "Dance the Night Away".
For one more night I gonna get to be 15 all over again.
I cried at the first show I saw in 2007, largely because I'd never seen them together before, and really had no idea it would ever happen. I'll never forget that night. (It was Dave's birthday too)
Oh dear.
Man,,,why you blur out your seats..you ain't pissed anyone off on here have ya?? Or you ain't bought that paternity insurance from Lloyds Of London and don't want them ladies trying to get you served at the VH show????
CANNOT WAIT TO READ THIS THREAD TOMORROW NIGHT...HOPE IT'S A ROUGH SKETCH OF WHAT THEY HAVE IN STORE FOR ME IN ST LOUIS. HOPE THEY DROP THE BOMB ON LIGHT UP THE SKY...FOOLS...DROP DEAD LEGS...STAY FROSTY ...OUTTA SPACE....(why did write in all caps????????????)
Ok guys, I'm predicting it right here...Drop Dead Legs tomorrow night here in Nashville just for me!!. I'm not sure who's more excited...me or my 10 yr old son. Quick story...he wanted to do a school report on Jimmy Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen. Teacher said no...not enough social relevance, so he ended up doing one on Jackie Robinson...along with 10 other kids. What are our school systems coming to?!?!? This time tomorrow night...The Mighty F'ing VAN HALEN!! Roth-N-Roll my friends!
Man.....NOT ENOUGH SOCIAL RELEVANCE? That teacher is a MORON!
I mean hey, Jackie Robinson...yeah, social relevance, but Jimi Hendrix EASILY has as much social relevance. Ed Van Halen not as much as Jimi or Jackie, but oh well.
I have been asking my friends around here where the pre-show bash is....nobody gives me an answer.....so I am going to talk to my neighbor tomorrow and see where he is going to be pre-show.....hell, there are 3 dozen bars within 2 blocks of Bridgestone arena....
I will post if I have something definite in mind before I leave home tomorrow.
Other than that, if you see some 6'-7" idiot walking around with a Roth Army shirt on (the Jack Daniels variety), chances are it is me.
What REALLY sucks fucking ass is that being unemployed, I don't dare get high. So I will have to get trashed on booze I suppose, lol.
