I guess I should starting to say hi to everybody. Asking for a favour at first meeting may not be a polite thing to do, but under these circumstances, I think you'll understand:

I live in Norway. A rock festival in the city I live in are giving people the possibility to vote for what bands they want to headline next years festival. Given Van Halen's history, it is not easy to say how long this reunion will last, and it would have been great to get to see them before they split up again.

Unfortunately, most of the people browsing through those pages are apparently brats that couldn't even get into the concert without their parents, because Metallica and Tokio Hotel are the bands in the lead. Only 20 or so have voted for Van Halen yet. However, if you could help me with your votes, it could be possible to turn the tide. I am already posting this on a ton of other forums.

So, I would really appreciate it if people would spend 30 seconds of their day helping me to get Van Halen to Norway. Norway is often skipped by bands even when they are on European tours, so this may very well be the only chance I get to see them.

Here's the link, thanks in advance!

Damn... looks like VH will never catch up on that list..

How about we work on getting VH in the Southeast US, and then we can think about Europe?

Thanks people. I think the if we stay vigilant and cast our voted, we can do it. After all, how many people are active on this forum? I'm posting these around on every single darn forum I can think of that is in any way VH-related (help spread the word if you like, it would certainly be appreciated).

Besides, I'm willing to bet that there is some flaw in the scripting that allows us to vote more than once from the same pc after some time has gone.

Dunno what it would take to get them to Dallas, but I don't think this will decrease the chances of Van Halen appearing anywhere else

We are up to 56 votes, which means we are bigger than some bands like Kiss, but we still only have 1/10th of the votes needed. DLRarmy, basically, we need your help here! :cool:

I'd like to help, but after determining some random fucks named "Tokio Hotel" are holding down 25% of the vote, you fuckers are on your own...

Apparently there is some way to download a fat assed crack rock prior to voting... :rolleyes:

We're up at 91 now! Tokio Hotel (which, for those that don't know is some German emo chicks band you don't want in your neightbourhood) is way up there still, but we have passed bands like AD/DC in votes.

Since the festival is over two days, I suspect that they will hire one new and one old band as headliners, if we can get Van Halen over Whitesnake and Judas Priest, there may yet be a chance!

So, assuming they win....are you intending to email management, who will then schedule the band for a trek to Norseland owing to their stellar performance on a website with ~5000 hits?

If you pull this off, contact me as I have some shit we could sell which'll make you a very wealthy Norwegian, indeed!!

You got my vote! If Van Halen plays Norway, I'm there! I've always wanted to visit the land of my ancestors.

I'm a decendant of the mighty Norskemen as well. I married a Swedish girl so we are percolating Scandinavian DNA. I don't know what it is but Scandinavian and Icelandic girls have always been the easiest to get on my cock. It's like a natural fuck that was meant to be? :D
