Crazy, the St.Louis show is almost 4 years to the day from the last one.. I believe it was April 26, 2008! I was there...Originally posted by wiseguy -
You Bet ! I was at that last show as well , not to mention the fact that I was completely
P-O'd about the not one , but TWO cancellations leading up to the actual show .
Sure was worth the wait though . After 24 years , what was another 6 months , right ?!?
Tix go on sale on my 49th. B-D - Saturday , February the 4th . Pretty damn cool present to myself .
This will be my 6th. go-round with the classic and only Van Halen !Last edited by Green Manalishi; 01-23-2012, 07:08 PM.Comment

YESSSS!!!!! Got my 4 tix shortly after they went on sale 10:00 a.m. today . I was the 3rd. humanoid in line and I was gonna pop for the $ 77.00 tix . By the time the second person was done , the $ 77.00 tix were GONE ! So , my only option was 4 of the $47.00 tickets . SCORE !!!
Seriously sucks that they just don't flat out tell you about the additional $12.85 per ticket up front . What kinda SHIT is that ?!? When I was walking away with tickets firmly in hand , a guy still in line about 6 people back offered me $200.00 cash on top of what I just paid for my 4 tickets .
I'm sitting way up in section 309 of the Mezzanine Level but that's O-Kay by me ! Happy Birthday to myself.........Comment

and Monday night and you know the powers that be are gonna try to keep the place as cool
as possible . Counting down the days.........Comment

Is St. Louis not a hot spot for the ROTH ARMY??? WTF???? We got the weakest thread on here...what the hell we gonna do about it??? Lots of cool cats on the Van Halen News Desk and VH Links talk of meeting and tailgating before the gig...where's the people on here??? The Pittsburgh show was good, but wasn't as good as Louisville. Are we in store for LIGHT UP THE SKY or STAY FROSTY.....finally gonna bust the cherry on DROP DEAD LEGS???? Do it in St Louis!!!!!Comment

Well, get out there and enjoy! Come to think of it, I'm not really sure if they even did DDL at that show in '84. Sadly '08 was the first VH show I went to "totally coherent". Whatever happens, I'm sure you're right about Dave bitching about the temp all night. But we all know a pissed off DLR is a really entertaining DLR. ROCK!Comment

I bet you're right. After further review, they didn't play it that night anyway. But of course I was probably seeing Aztec temples and Hendrix that night as well. Man, it was a different world back then!Comment

That's what I've thought...but I never saw them on the 1984 tour and can only count on what a few publications and the friends I have who did have told me. I have a pretty good knowledge of Van Halen history and that's always been the way I remember...let me bust out the VH Encyclopedia and see. I am new on here and dont wanna start an argument with Roth Army vet in my first week...I got more respect for the people who have put in their time before than to do that..unless the get real disrespectful. But, I know for fucking sure the other songs I threw out ain't never had their bright red cherries popped!!!Comment
