My radio station is having a contest giving away front row tickets to the VH show next month. I submitted a photo of my tattoo and whichever tattoo gets the most votes wins the tickets. Mine is the tattoo of Kermit the Frog. I grew up listening to Classic Van Halen but now I don't have enough money for tickets because my university is taking it all. The Roth Army is where I found out VH and DLR reunited and where I always check first for VH news. Please vote for me!

Not sure if you're referring to the fact that it's actually real or if it's a wuss tattoo but it's definitely real the photo is from the day after I got it done with the clear shit covering it still. But hey it's one of several tattoos that reflect different periods of my life and the things I loved in those times. Kermit seems to always get the strongest reactions so I used that one

Kinda lame, brah ---- maybe if it was a tat of Kermit banging Miss Piggy in the ass and had the words "Green Eggs and Ham" underneath ---- then I'd vote for ya.

LOL

Oh come on. We can't be hardcore 24/7. Sometimes you just wanna do something fun & silly and fuck what everyone else thinks. I dig kermit. Probably wouldn't tattoo him on me, but definitely one of the best characters of the last 50 years.

And fuck it...dude is a VH fan. Least we can do is click a vote for him and then demand pictures, video, and any guitar picks he might catch from that front row seat.

Registers at the Army, and on the Army facebook just to pimp is tat.....

03-11-2012, 10:45 PM
and it's not really a matter of what the tattoo is of, but more of asking assistance from other VH fans. I'm sure if I had 10000 posts you all wouldn't be so quick to say no but you know what we're all fans of VH and I'd vote for you guys

Damn dude. I gotta be honest, it looks a million times better in the 2nd pic. (even though you look kinda like Fred Dursts lil bro) I hope to God that you just took that photo tonight & that middle finger is directed towards our Elvis. That will get you a ton of votes here. HAHA!

And yes that middle finger is directed at Elvis

there is an off-road site i frequent that has rules for vote requests, especially by new members. it's very simple...tit pics of sister/girlfriend/mom/whatever, and NOT random internet tit pics. we can get those anywhere.

so, as i alluded to above, TOGTFO.

and that's tits or get the fuck out.

Hey, if he was a longtime poster who actually contributed something to the site, then I could see it.

He has all of what, 29 or 30 fucking posts since 2005?

And now he comes here to BEG us to help him?

:lmao:

If he has actually been coming here for that long, and if he has ANY familiarity with US, he would know that doing something like this could have unintended consequences.....

Don't I know it. :first:

Only 148 people on the fuckin' planet (actually 147, Sarge's Little helper is a bot) signed up here before me and I asked for something so little as Facebook Likes and my thread was moved to The Dump. :lmao:

Here's to hoping Dave remembers the fucking words tonight. :elvis:

03-14-2012, 04:19 PM
Yeah I realized the dude with the 9/11 tattoo has like 100 votes.. that gives me an idea. Get a 9/11 "never forget" tattoo for future contests since people evidently seem to get caught up in patriotism.... that was not meant to be serious if anyone is too dense to realize. And I only have about 30 posts since 2005 because I actually have things to do in my life and can't come onto a site and post every day about a band that has toured twice in the last 5 years. I'm not trying to knock anyone here because if VH is your thing then by all means you should do what you like and post away. I love VH but they're just not active enough these days for me to check these sites all the time anymore when they're not touring. Anyway, thanks whoever voted and fuck you if you didn't lol.

And to people hating on my tattoo, we all have things we still love from our childhood so who cares.. not all tattoos have to be serious or make you look like a badass.

03-14-2012, 10:57 PM
Dude...I gotta be honest. I, too, have VERY few posts on this site. But what one person defines as fandom may be 180 degrees opposite from another's. I can tell you beyond any shadow of a doubt Van Halen is, was, and will always be my favorite band. I have the ink to back it up. Just because you or I don't have a million posts doesn't mean that we're not fans of DLR era CVH. The best you could do at this point is show some humility. It makes you look MUCH worse to bash back. I don't pretend for a second to be "experienced" on this site. But I have and always will show respect and treat others the way I would want to be treated. Most of the time, I'm sitting back "learning" from those that have been on here much longer. I can say without hesitation Va (among others) have treated me very well to be such a "newbie." Thanks again Va for that!

I honestly think you had the best of intentions by asking for the Army's support. But you gotta show some love and build rapport before you go asking for WORLDWIDE support from a site that has very strong and close ties to DLR himself. I'm pretty quiet on here because I'm a newbie and I'm fine with that. But I also know I gotta start somewhere. Everyone else was in our shoes before too. I truly wish you the best of luck with the contest. But I think your enthusiasm outweighed your idea of common courtesy. Just because VH has been quiet for more years than not doesn't decrease any of the true fan's desire (obsession) with all things DLR/VH. I'm guilty of frustration mixed with excitement only to have the proverbial rug ripped out from under me worse than Lucy and Charlie Brown.

All I'm saying is this. I'm NOT raining on your parade. I'm trying to explain the best way I know how that being "new" on this site means paying our dues, respecting those that have been on here for YEARS longer than we knew there even was a DLR Army site. And to mold your enthusiasm and excitement into a "shared" experience with everyone on here. Like I said, Good Luck! Hope you get those tickets! And by the way, I always wanted an Animal tattoo, but went with other options. If Kermit is your thing, rock it out! But you gotta be able to take the "heat" from everyone that doesn't share the same love of the fuzzy ones. That's all I'm saying!

Peace and good luck with Kermie!

Good call, Don.

Not saying he is not a fan. Not at all.

And am not really "slamming" him or his desire to see the Mighty VH.

But I have taken the liberty of poking some fun at him. :hee:

Not meaning it in any sort of malicious or hurtful way. ;)

If he wants help here, he has to pay to play. And he did get some help already. :D

Hope he can win the tickets.

But hey doing something gives you more of a chance than not doing anything at all (most of the time).. If people want to make fun of me and my tattoo and say they won't vote it's no big deal.. I've heard it all before lol.... anyway, I'll probably go down to the arena and try to score a cheap ticket the day of the show. I'll come back with a review/pics or something if I go.

Make sure you check Craigslist & specially ebay the 3 days prior to your show. People get desperate if they have an extra ticket & don't wanna eat the entire price. I got my 2007 tix at 1/2 price one day before the show.
