Well, we're up.
I never thought I'd live to see the day. It's been nearly 28 years (July 7, 1984-Roberts Stadium, Evansville, IN). I wasn't lucky enough to get to the last tour so this could get emotional. I have warned my daughter, who probably will be going with me, that when "Unchained" starts I could shed a tear or two. And I am gonna be doing some dancin' during "Dance the Night Away".
For one more night I gonna get to be 15 all over again."Don't try to confuse the issue with half truths and gorilla dust." - Bill NcNealComment

I cried at the first show I saw in 2007, largely because I'd never seen them together before, and really had no idea it would ever happen. I'll never forget that night. (It was Dave's birthday too)
Oh dear.

Ok guys, I'm predicting it right here...Drop Dead Legs tomorrow night here in Nashville just for me!!. I'm not sure who's more excited...me or my 10 yr old son. Quick story...he wanted to do a school report on Jimmy Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen. Teacher said no...not enough social relevance, so he ended up doing one on Jackie Robinson...along with 10 other kids. What are our school systems coming to?!?!? This time tomorrow night...The Mighty F'ing VAN HALEN!! Roth-N-Roll my friends!

Man.....NOT ENOUGH SOCIAL RELEVANCE? That teacher is a MORON!
I mean hey, Jackie Robinson...yeah, social relevance, but Jimi Hendrix EASILY has as much social relevance. Ed Van Halen not as much as Jimi or Jackie, but oh well.
I have been asking my friends around here where the pre-show bash is....nobody gives me an answer.....so I am going to talk to my neighbor tomorrow and see where he is going to be pre-show.....hell, there are 3 dozen bars within 2 blocks of Bridgestone arena....
I will post if I have something definite in mind before I leave home tomorrow.
Other than that, if you see some 6'-7" idiot walking around with a Roth Army shirt on (the Jack Daniels variety), chances are it is me.
What REALLY sucks fucking ass is that being unemployed, I don't dare get high. So I will have to get trashed on booze I suppose, lol.Comment

Looks like there are plenty of lower bowl seats left.
I always knew Nashville was a Sammy town."Don't try to confuse the issue with half truths and gorilla dust." - Bill NcNealComment

The guy caused hundreds of thousands of kids to pick up a guitar and learn a musical instrument....
Sounds like social relevance to me.....
And BTW HR, I was the only one I saw with a RA shirt in Greensboro.... I mean, there are bunch of us Army people there, but I was the only one with the shirt....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals
