    Advice on dates to attend from Europe?

    Looking for advice on possible gigs to attend....

    I am hoping to visit the US from Europe to attend some of the 2012 tours dates. I am particulary interested in seeing either/both of the Atlanta, Ga and Charlotte, NC gigs...

    Do you think these gigs will be instant sell outs? or are they areas where VH does not have such a big following. I need to hold off buying the tickets to nearer the time due to other commitments, but equally so would wish to try and buy the best tickets I can get. (I was even tempted to buy them as soon as they are released, and then try and resell if I cannot go, but TM will only allow you to use "will call" as an international buyer, so would not physically have the tickets until the day of the gig ....)

    Second question, please do you know which side of the stage is Ed's normally on recent tours, keen to buy seats that side.

    Still hoping for a UK tour...

    Ed was just off centre for much of the last tour - not sure why that was but it looked a bit weird.

    He'd normally be on stage left - or on the right as you look at the stage.

    Buying the tickets can sometimes be awkward because American companies can be weird about foreign credit cards.

    I even had a huge amount of hassle getting internal flights booked with some idiotic airline called AirTran for the same reason.

    Most of the good seats are going to be gone by the time you buy your tickets which means that you will have to go through a ticket agency, craigslist or ebay as it makes no sense to pay all that to get there and then sit at the back. It's possible to do this ok but it can be pretty stressful. I did it at the Dave and Sammy tour in 2002 and at the last tour, turning up to the city on the day or the day before and trying to pick up tickets. It worked out great both times but you do have moments of doubt and you have to accept that you will end up having to pay a bit more than the face value on the ticket.

    We scored great seats from Ticketbastard just days before the shows last tour in Cleveland and Montreal.

    You can usually find people outside a few minutes before the show trying to unload an extra pair or two as well.

    If you can hold off, the last show would be a good one to catch. I plan on being there myself, where ever that may be...

    I used StubHub a lot on the 07/08 tour... they usually have a good selection, and they e-mail you the PDF tickets. I recommend them as a resource for sure.

    You might want to consider 3/24 in Atlantic City, NJ at the Convention Hall. Tix have not gone on sale yet and you can get a reasonably priced hotel-the same one the arena is attached too. Unlike Mohegan Sun, they don't gouge you when there's a show since there are a lot of hotels in AC. In Mohegan Sun, you really have no choice.

    Rental car from Newark to Atlantic City. Road trip!

    I gotta be careful here. Drinking in charge of credit card and a shitload of desire to be there - ah, tix not on sale yet!! Sensible sober head might take over ... It might just be a bit too soon for me. Later in May, June might be better.

    It's a Saturday night too. Looks like a good option, if it had been a month later I think I would have gone.

    Las Vegas, May 27th? No need for a vehicle. Virgin Atlantic from Gatwick might be worth looking into.

    I suppose I can't really afford to splash out on a trip like this due to miscellaneous and disastrous financial adventures over the last few years, not in March, anyway - or it would be tight coming soon after the damn taxman has to be paid - although it could on the whole be cheaper.

    Just the timing for me, too.

    Yer, might be cheaper, or roughly similar to costs to AC. From a quick look on expedia, flight and 3 nights at the Stratosphere come in at just under £800. With spends and ticket, probably £1500 min for three days ...

    Actually - hotel+flight options for London to Vegas for c.750ukp. For now anyway.

    This is looking possible.

    Two points here, check for flight only, and you're not staying at the fucking Stratsphere, trust me

    I don't know your situation, but coming so far you might want to make a week long holiday of it. May is the best

    weather in Vegas imo and it is prime pool season.

    The only time I been to Vegas was in May 2000. Three days. Lost most of my spends 'early doors' as we say here, in the casinos ... It was a phase I was going through, I guess you could say. Never saw a damn pool. Stayed at that hotel where they blew up the ship out front every night. Can't remember now ... Yeah, Treasure Island.

    Best thing was driving from LA thru the desert.

    Spent the last 20 minutes looking into New Orleans but the flights are expensive.

    I think Katrina has still fucked that place up, almost no direct international flights and none from Europe I can find.

    Manchester to Vegas US $915.00, but you have to change in LHR and San Fran.

    Been looking at Oakland, 'cos it's later and I have a sister a coupla hours away in case I run outta cash ... But there are too many variables. Its a Sunday gig - June 3rd - but I think it's a matter finding what days are best for the flights. Tues to Tues seems cheapest so far, but then again Tues to Sun, or Thurs to Weds, etc., could throw up cheaper options. Will keep looking.

    Been looking at various options on the East Coast as well, and even allowing for varying days from, say, 5-7 days and days of the week for outward and return flights fom London, it is all pretty much of a muchness - circa 500-600 quid. Decided to look at Charlotte, NC just 'cos I spoke to a charming Charlotte, NC, girl today ... But, it is ditto West Coast prices - the potential bummer with the latter coming from the UK is the extra flight time, and poss higher hotel costs in late May, early June.

    If you go to Charlotte you are as well doing Greensboro as well.

    Fly direct to Washington and then drive down.

    You folks across the pond might want to consider Kansas City, Denver, Dallas or Houston... you should have no problem getting international flights into any of them. The later dates can help you swing the budget...

    Don't git all worked up and scared about the wild west... they got indoor plumbing, paved roads, hot women and hotter bar-b-q than any of those east coast dumps...

    Kansas City is not the "wild west." Denver is boring and Dallas is full of mexicans and drug gangs...

    But Houston is close enough to New Orleans to enjoy a kickass Van Halen show and spend the rest of the night eating and drinking in the French Quarter...

    I know Elvis... I was thinking terms of major airport hubs that have international flights. Plus trying to dispel media perceptions that they might run into Matt Dillion and Festus gang-banging Miss Kittie while trying to find a good Bar-B-Q joint in KC...

    You did fail to mention having to navigate and fight your way out of the mexican and drug gang areas just to travel from Houston to New Orleans... not to mention the madness of driving in the Houston area alone is a survival feat not for the weak at heart...

    LMAO!

    Try it at rush hour puling a travel trailer...

    Hey, a flight from Houston to New Orleans is about $100 and takes about 45 minutes...

    Houston actually looks quite good. Sunday night gig, 9 hour direct flight on BA or Continental from London.

    Well it's kind of a meetup if all the 'foreigners' choose a show.

    I'm just one lottery result away from a Euro RothArmy chartered jet.

    I won $34 from the Florida lottery via some scratch-off tickets received as gifts over the holidays. Given the average probability of winning, I more than likely have used up all of my "luck" for the next 17-23 years.

    I respect people making that kind of effort to see these guys live and can only hope that you all have zero people bullshit issues and get to the venue and make it inside without getting vomited on and have the best fucking time.

    Everyone has always been super nice in fact you tend to get treated like a bit of a celebrity because its such a ridiculous thing to do.

    I can recomend Kansas City for only one reason, the venue Sprint Center is right across the street from a brand new (few years ) city center bar and restauarant area with yuppy style elegant syle and just plain old pub style businesses. But these days most cities have a travelers hospitality area any more.

    Quite a few hotels within walking distance of the show and some decent tittie bars just around the corner.

    Most of us cool cats--lol.. consider the power and light district, Douche Bag Central, so bring your Ed Hardy T-Shirts and Hair Products.. Still it is a nice, city thing, for visitors.

    If I was from Europe I would hit a East Coast Venue just because of the money. KC is in the middle of the USA more expensive airfair.(excellent airport we have though simple and easy to navigate) and there isn't much super hot stuff to do, like the coasts offer. Or Vegas the Tittie bars are unreal...single dude that I am..lol.

    http://www.powerandlightdistrict.com/

    P.S. I drink at a dive bar way away from these places..lol. But I have some civic pride.
