A hometown Van Halen show. You won't see me in the cheap seats. Anyone doing the MTL-TOR-OTT 3 show tour should get in touch.
Man, I was excited in 2007 when i did Toronto, but think I"m over the top for this one!
Just bought my plan tix for Ottawa, booked the hotel...now all i need is to get VH tx!!!
Will be there, no matter what it takes to get in!
Air Canada was fantastic rate today...Only 475 for two from the Maritimes.
Gimmee a bottle of carb-free beer, and a low-fat muffin...TO GO!
Just bought my VIP tickets. Canadian folks should go to VIP Nation now. No American Express pre-orders for us...straight to the front of the line.
Front of the Line Worked for me this morning...19th row on the floor for $160 a ticket!
Nice!
Got myself 2 tix this morning. Had to go upper level, but I've seen shows many times at the "Bank" and there's no bad seats. Se ya there muthafauckas!!!!!!
Last week I found out work was sending me to Ottawa Tuesday-Friday this week. Yesterday I finally made the connection that Holy Fuck, there's a show in Ottawa Wednesday night. Got a surprisingly good seat (Row 3 of section C on the floor) this morning. I'm pretty pumped; I'm otherwise not in a position to travel and was expecting to have to live this tour vicariously through everyone else.
I'll be coming from downtown (Cooper/Elgin) and don't have a rental car. Any Ottawans got any suggestions other than the public transit (Connexion 400-series, I think they call it)? I'm not really up for any $50 cab rides...
Bring on the MIGHTY Van Halen, Motherfuckers.
U r gonna have a blast that night
The band is on fuckin fire!!!
Enjoy the show and take plenty of pics and vids
Just saw them in Toronto last Saturday night. They are more like a "band" now.
That 2 hours goes by so fast, but each member is "killing it".
Roth, the Toastmaster General will make the 2 hours seem like 20 minutes.
Hang on, folks, here we go!!
God Bless all that are going.
Nigel
what does God have to do with it? this ain't a fuckin' Stryper show!
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
Oh boy oh boy
Go and say a hundred HAIL HALEN's quickly or else
Lol
i left that cult long ago and never looked back.[/QUOTE]
Less than three hours!!! I'm heading out the door now!!! See ya there, fuckers!!!!!!!! DAVE OR THE GRAVE!

And Alex Van Halen is pounding the drums #vanhalen— Peter Simpson (@bigbeatottawa) March 22, 2012
#vanhalen, first song Unchained. Dave is in cross-stitched leather pants, all sparkles and sequins. Bold outfit for a 56 year old man!— Peter Simpson (@bigbeatottawa) March 22, 2012
#vanhalen Despite all those years apart, the band is still as tight as Dave's pants.— Peter Simpson (@bigbeatottawa) March 22, 2012
Good one. Bet he worked on that for a long time.
Wow, #Ottawa #vanhalen fans are tweeting great concert photos from @scotiabankplace to @ottawacitizen's live blogbit.ly/GKSsoj— Roberta Pennington (@digichick) March 22, 2012
Unchained! yeaaah!! I smell a surprise song...
I had some crazy vision, one I can't deny it
It said "Open your eyes. Leave it all behind."
If you click on the link at the end of the tweet above you can see some pix - not many great ones, but a cool one of Eddie. Tried to paste it here, but too complicated for my technologically deficient brain!
Their live page says they did "She's the Woman"
Uh-Oh
Eddie's tone is incredible, Wolfie's bkg vox sound great, Alex is smiling and DLR is having monitor problems. #vanhalen img.ly/fA54— Colin Mills (@ColinMills) March 22, 2012
#vanhalen Dave just showed us a tattoo on his ass. It was a gun, I'm told, and on the big screen it was the size of a Howitzer.
Everybody wants some.
#vanhalen #bigbeatottawa Good crowd, enthusiastic, but nowhere near a sellout
