Who's up for a Charlotte show???
Had a blast in Charlotte last time around. Met some great Army peeps there. Hoping to make it to both NC shows.

Three words. WE WERE THERE.
Charlotte's a possibility, although a Wednesday show is a pain in the butt-ocks....
Not quite sure why, could easily be a typo, but Charlotte is not listed in the tour dates on the Live Nation website....
Still not seeing the Charlotte date listed anywhere...guess I have a while to save up
Finally saw on ticketmaster that tix for this show drop on the 28th! What bar are we meeting up at this time? Was it Ri-Ra's last time?
American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
I am pumped and ready for this one!!! If anyone wants to meet up let me know!
I'm in!
Awesome, when it gets closer to show time we can exchange contact info.
Where about are you at in North Carolina? Just wondering since I think there's like one other member here from NC.
I'm 3 hours from Charlotte close to Asheville NC.
Had a complete stranger come up to me tonight at the local Pizza Hut carryout joint and she asks if I'm going to the Van Halen concert - she saw my VH logo on the back of the SUV. Turns out her and 5 of her friends are going to the Charlotte show. Of course, I directed her here to buy a Roth Army shirt. So is anyone else going to the Charlotte show? I wanted to go to the Greensboro show but I just can't make it (nobody to watch the kid).
Two days left til the Charlotte show!!! Due to unexpected circumstances I have a spare floor seat ticket and if any of you regulars here want to take advantage of it PM me.
Enjoy folks...its a hell of a show, of course..
My spare ticket goes on Craigs list tomorrow. If any of the Roth Army regulars want to take advantage of it for free then it's yours. As in for fucking free, no strings attached, nothing. You show up and I'll hand it over. I'd rather give it to one of you than sell it to a stranger in front of the arena on Wednesday night. And, and, if you're within driving distance I'll even eat the fucking fee to overnight the ticket to you. Damn right, I said it and I meant it. I'll take the goddamn ticket to the post office and overnight it to you tomorrow. But I have to get it in the mail by noon and you might have to be home to sign for it - I don't know if USPS delivers if no one signs for it. So there, I'm tossing the offer out there one last time.

Believe me if I lived down there I'd be happy to take the ticket. I really don't understand why they have a four day layoff in between two cities that are so close to each other. I wonder if they were aiming to play somewhere else down there on 4/23 and it just fell through.
I'll be there tomorrow. My first ever Van Halen show! Any idea on when they typically do soundcheck? I work pretty close to the arena and may try to see if I can hear anything (though I doubt I will).

A mighty generous offer, D. If I lived anywhere near I would be all over it. Hope someone around here is able to use it - VH is on a roll!
My karma just ran over your dogma.
Less than 24 hours until Van Halen hits the stage in Charlotte. My daughter was supposed to stay the night tomorrow with the neighbor (her best friend). Well, guess what??? The motherfucking goddamn shit just fell through. I knew this was gonna happen. But it's cool, 'cause I just made my daughter's day - she's going with me! I should have just said fuck school from the beginning and got her a ticket to start with. God help her, 'cause she's gonna see her dad go absolutely fucking apeshit tomorrow nite!!!
She's 11 and yeah, she digs Van Halen. She's more into Dave though - go figure It's gonna be an experience for her, that's for sure! Too damn bad I don't have small Roth Army shirt for her to wear!
Oh No! You have a little "Momshell" on your hands! LOL! My 11 year old would be thrilled to go...not for Dave, but "Dance The Night Away" and "Big River"...My 14 year old would probably be babe scoping...ugh...and the 8 year old would be singing along with every word to "Blood and Fire"...
Its amazing how the kids just know all the lyrics. Just blows me away.
Val has a bd today wolfie needs to be with mommy.That is why the break?
That is way cool! I would've bought that ticket from ya if I could've worked out a mid-week trip to Charlotte (Tiki would understand....lol, yeah right!) but I have totally been rooting for the possibility of you taking your little girl. The stars lined up for it, and I can't think of a better father/daughter bonding experience. I am so happy for both of ya!
Thanks Sparkie!!! Can't fucking wait til tonight! Gonna take my kid to the arena and get her formally inducted into the Roth Army!!
I can't believe it's been five years since Van Halen was in town....Gonna be one more hell of a night!
......yeah and that 5 years ago was the opening nite of the tour!
